To assess the scope and nature of terrorism in 2016, the Los Angeles Times sought to chart the worldwide toll of deaths and injuries in a single month. From government and police reports, terrorism databases, news accounts and their own independent reporting, Times journalists in the U.S. and around the globe compiled a record of every fatal act of terrorism during the 30 days of April.
They confirmed 858 deaths in 27 countries. An additional 1,385 were injured.
Recent attacks in Paris and Brussels, San Bernardino and Orlando, Fla., have left Americans and Europeans feeling besieged. But the data show that terrorism strikes everywhere — from Armenia to Peru, India to Thailand, Bangladesh to the Philippines. The deadliest places were chronic trouble spots — Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria — and most of the dead were Muslims, slain by other Muslims.
The number of terrorist attacks around the world actually decreased by 13% last year, according to the U.S. State Department, the biggest decline in more than a decade. But the reality is that terrorist attacks over the last 15 years have become more deadly, more indiscriminate and more wide-ranging.
During April, not one day escaped bloodshed committed by terrorists.

I recall a statistic from a Federal agency that said since 1970 there have been more than 92,000 terrorist attacks by muslims.
‘Course since obama/jarett came on the scene, said agency has been all but neutered, when it comes to tracking muslim activities and thwarting terrorism.
The boot remains on the American citizen’s neck, however.
If only we could establish who is committing all this terrorism.
Anyone got a figure on the percentage committed by dog hating, boy boinking, child loving prophet worshipping sand people?
So for the sake of Peace, we need to disarm everyday Americans?

Obama's State Department?
Define "terrorist attack." Did the definition change to facilitate the drop?

Has an extensive list of Islamic inspired Terror attacks throughout the world over several years.
Well, now that this is the month of Allah, of Ramadan, I wouldn;t think it will let us much.
Powerful article - and from the LA Times!
Obama would never admit there was even such a thing as a Muslim terrorist even if ISIS managed to get a nuke and set it off in NYC even if they live streamed the preparation and setting it off on the Internet.
One of these days, the Emperor and his lackeys in the press will find out what the motivation was for all these attacks. Stay tuned.
The words “terror” and “terrorism” are semantically destructive euphemisms.
These are not “terror” attacks. These are Islamic attacks.
You can only piss on folks leg for so long. Eventually they figure out it ain’t raining.
Islam must be purged from the west. That is all there is to it. It brings nothing good.
It must be recognized as a totalitarian, supremacist, officially violent system of law. It is the self declared and implacable foe of freedom, democracy, and liberty.
It is not just a religion, and it is not going to change. Despite what all the pajama boys and girls in government say, we ARE at war with Islam. Want to reduce terror by like 95%? Remove Muslims from your midst. If we don't stop them, it will be convert or die.
And still no statements of outrage from CAIR, the mosques and all the other peaceful adherents of Allah?
This should be encouraged and expanded on greatly.

I know...it is so damned difficult to find a common thread. I'm totally stumped.
See thereligionofpeace.com - they track all of it.
