American Jews found to be least Islamaphobic in national report

The 2019 “American Muslim Poll,” which was released by the Institute for Social Policy and Understanding, found that 53% of Jewish Americans reported having favorable views of Muslims and the Muslim faith. Only 13% of Jews reported having negative views.

The poll surveyed American Muslims, Jews, Catholics, Protestants and the non-affiliated to examine their views on politics, religion, sexual and religious violence, minorities and other faith groups. Among the 2,376 respondents, 804 identified as Muslim and 360 identified as Jewish. The poll was conducted in January.

The poll also reported that 45% of the Muslim American respondents had favorable views of Jews, while just 10% reported having negative views. The rest of the respondents remained neutral on the subject.
