The attacks in Paris, Beirut and Baghdad, claimed by global terrorist outfit Islamic State – also known as Daesh –, have stirred a debate over terrorism and measures to reign in the extremism spreading all over the world.
Surveys by the Pew Research Centre in April and May gauged sentiment towards Isis in Muslim countries, finding that in none of the countries were 15 per cent of the population, or more, in favour of Isis.
The nationally representative surveys found that of all countries, Pakistan was the least unfavourable (28 per cent), and Lebanon was the most (100 per cent), towards the terrorist group, reported The Independent.

Pakistan was the least decided of all the countries surveyed, as 62 per cent had yet to reach an opinion on Isis.
The most sympathetic country was Nigeria (14 per cent), where Boko Haram, who have pledged allegiance to Isis, operate.
