null's citation does not offer the circumstances in which 24% of Muslim's find killing civilians acceptable,  but in fairness we ought to assume that they would only sanction it for reasons they found compelling.  And then we might set their 24%  approval for the theoretical killing of civilians alongside the 43% of Americans who approve one of the more notable historical examples of such behavior, the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. (CBS poll from 2016) And doing so,  we might wonder if American Muslims weren't  a bit more pacific than the generality of Americans. 

In this comparison, Democrats outstrip Muslims in condoning civilian slaughter, at 32%. Republican's approve the bombings most robustly, at 6o%.  That's 17% above average, and 36% beyond  American Muslim's reported general acceptance of such practices.
