While some are reporting that a recent Pew Research Center poll show that U.S. Muslims are "largely assimilated and happy", many others are questioning that statement and digging into the deeper meaning of the Pew Research Center data. And some of the data about Muslim Americans is raising concern. An MSNBC article reports "Sympathy for suicide bombers raises fears about homegrown extremism".

According to the Pew Research Center poll released late last month, about 25% of American Muslims ages 18 to 19 said, "the use of suicide bombing against civilian targets to defend Islam could be justified, at least on rare occasions."
