<The most extreme shift was seen in Indonesia, where 61 percent had a favorable opinion last summer but now only 15 percent do.>

There is a vast shift here, several hundred million people, living on the battleground, people who used to be on the sidelines of this war, and who now are solidly against us.

<In eight of the nine Muslim populations surveyed, at least 50 percent believe Western-style democracy can work in their countries.>
