As President Barack Obama departed for a trip to the Middle Easton on Wednesday, a fresh poll suggests that only one in five Americans has a favourable view of Muslim countries. That compares with 46 percent of the people questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corp survey who say they have an unfavourable opinion of Muslim countries. That's up five percent from 2002. Three in 10 say they have a neutral opinion of Muslim countries. The poll also suggests that most Americans suspect people in Muslim countries do not think highly of the United States.
