-- -- NEW YORK A new Gallup poll finds that many Americans -- what it calls 
"substantial minorities" -- harbor "negative feelings or prejudices against 
people of the Muslim faith" in this country. Nearly one in four Americans, 
22%, say they would not like to have a Muslim as a neighbor.

While Americans tend to disagree with the notion that Muslims living in the 
United States are sympathetic to al-Qaeda, a significant 34% believe they 
do back al-Qaeda. And fewer than half -- 49% -- believe U.S. Muslims are 
loyal to the United States.

Almost four in ten, 39%, advocate that Muslims here should carry special 
I.D. That same number admit that they do hold some "prejudice" against 
Muslims. Forty-four percent say their religious views are too "extreme."

In every case, Americans who actually know any Muslims are more sympathethic.

The poll was taken at the end of July and surveyed 1,007 adult Americans.
