A Year of Islamist Terror: The Numbers

The Religion of Peace has a list of Islamist terrorist attacks. I converted it to a excel spreadsheet and here are the numbers:

For 2005:
o 6991 people murdered
o 12,382 people injured

Countries attacked:

Afghanistan, Algeria, Bangladesh, Chechnya, Dagestan, Denmark, Egypt, Ethiopia, France, India, Indonesia, Ingushetia, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kabardino-Balk., Kosovo, Kuwait, Lebanon, Mauritania, Nigeria, Pakistan, Palestine (Jebaliya and Gaza City), Philippines, Qatar, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Scotland, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Thailand, UK, and Yemen

It's been a busy year for Islamist terrorists.

Isn't it about time that the West get busy dealing with this--instead of pandering to the CAIR's and Galloways of the world?

If you're curious how there could be terrorist attacks against Palestinian Arabs, it's Hamas:

September 5 Gaza City: 4 killed and 27 wounded when a Hamas weapons lab blows up in a residential neighborhood.

September 23 Jebaliya: 17 killed and 140 wounded when a Hamas truck, loaded with rockets intended for Israel, explodes early, killing seventeen Palestinians (including three children) and injuring another one-hundred and forty.

That's Hamas--the bastion of charity; the ones who are not as corrupt as the PA.

How many political parties in the world can you name that have killed 21 and injured 167 of its own people that are popular with their people?

Palestinian Arabs: ripe for democracy!

Hey Daled Amos,

Since you posted the Havalim, I've been slowly reading through a number of your posts; you're an excellent writer, and I admire how you dig right into issues and search for their root. I'm quite impressed, including this peice from 3 months ago that pinpoints the diversity in targets and the widespread violence perputrated in this latest conflict.

I'm doing a week-long examination of terrorism, and would like to include your post.

Additionally, I was hoping you could hep me a bit. Last week you were able to force Havalim to remain at the top of your blog for the entire week...how did you do that? I've spent the better part of the last 4 hours experimenting, to no avail. Any help would be sooooo appreciated!

Anyway, if you have any objection to my linking to your article, feel free to post it here (I'll check before going live) or email me. The same is true with the advice, if you can provide it. Otherwise, I appreciate your insights, and look forward to reading more from you in the future.
