The Islamic State (ISIS) attacks in Paris have nearly all Americans worried about a terrorist strike in the United States – and a majority convinced we’re at war with radical Islam, according to a new poll.
The Washington Post-ABC News survey, finds a stunning 83 percent of registered voters believe a terrorist attack in the United States resulting in large casualties is likely in the near future – a rise of 10 percentage points from a Quinnipiac University poll taken between Oct. 29 and Nov. 2 asking the same question.
A full 40 percent say a major attack is “very likely,” matching the level of concern after the 2005 subway bombings in Britain, according to the Washington Post.
The survey also shows 59 percent think “the United States is at war with radical Islam.”
