Actually, not so much:

On November 15, 2003, two trucks carrying bombs slammed into the Bet Israel and Neve Shalom synagogues in Istanbul, Turkey and exploded. The explosions devastated the synagogues and killed twenty-seven people, most of them Turkish Muslims,[1] and injured more than 300 others. Six Jews were among the dead.[1][2][3] An Islamic militant group, IBDA-C, claimed responsibility for the blasts, but Turkish government officials dismissed these claims, pointing out that this minor group did not have enough resources to carry out such an intricately planned and expensive attack.

And before you try the quick and easy reply that I’m not likely to be involved, please be advised that my wife’s Jewish office in Seattle was attacked by a jihadi, with a co-worker killed and several others injured.

Oh wow, there are Islamic terrorists in Turkey? There are also Islamic terrorists in Israel and the United States, the last time I checked.

If you were worried, I'm pretty strongly against Islamic terrorists. Not sure what point you're making -- I'd still rather be in Turkey, Israel or the United States than DR Congo.
