The Hill – Nov. 20, 2015 – Large majorities of Americans now favor increased military action, including the use of ground forces, against the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria in the wake of last week’s terrorist attacks in Paris, a new poll says. 
73 percent support increased U.S. airstrikes against ISIS, and 60 percent back more ground forces — double the level of support for ground forces from summer 2014, according to the new poll by ABC News/Washington Post, published on Friday.
59 percent of Americans say the U.S. is at war with radical Islam, the poll said.
The numbers coincide with a near post-9/11 high of terrorism fears, after ISIS carried out attacks in Paris that killed at least 129. Eighty-one percent of Americans now see a major terrorist attack in the United States as likely.
That percent has been higher only once since the 9/11 terrorist attacks carried out by al Qaeda on Sept. 11, 2001.
At the same time, 78 percent of Americans say that if refugees are admitted, they should be considered equally, without regard to their religion. Only 18 percent favor special consideration for Christians.
