This soils the reputation of islam. I know some good people (muslims) who suffer from prejudice on a daily basis because of attacks like these.

Being a muslim in a foreign country is an increasingly difficult and isolating experience.

Islam soils the reputation of islam. It has a massive problem of large percentages of Muslims supporting (or being okay with) violence and terrorism.

42% of young Muslims in France believe suicide bombings are justified (35% overall).

This seems to be mainly a problem in Europe (and France in particular) as opposed to Islam in general. Even the study you've linked indicates that.

Here is an article that explores a bit more the attitudes among American Muslims in particular. I don't have time to find the actual study, sorry:
