The KKK had over 4 million members in its heyday -- over 13% of the country's population of adult white males. Add to that their wives, children, etc who supported them and sympathetic officials who looked the other way, juries who refused to convict the terrorists who were prosecuted, and the revisionists today who poo-poo their influence and you can see how expansive and effective a terrorist organization they were.

The IRA's jet-setting public faces frequently flew to Boston and New York to raise money for their cause -- money that was used to purchase the tools of their terrorist trade that killed over 1500 and wounded over 20,000.

LTTE controls the northeastern coast of Sri Lanka so extensively that that locals there pay their taxes to the terrorists rather than the government.

Anti-FARC politicians often refuse to run for office in Colombia, intimidated by both the possibly humiliating election defeat at the hands of FARC supporters and the possibly deadly abductions made possible by FARC enablers.

As in Northern Ireland, city streets in Spains Basque provinces are covered in grafitti proclaiming neighborhoods' allegience to the local terrorist group.

And I haven't even started on the state-sponsored terrorism in Germany, USSR, China-PRC, South Africa, Cuba, Zimbabwe, etc.

Most reports state that approx. 10% of the worlds Muslims support the islamofascist terrorists on one level or another. (That number is extremely underestimated IMHO). There are about 1 billion Muslims in the world. Based on the conservative estimate of 10% Muslim support for the likes of OBL, that means there are 100 million Islamofascist terrorists and supporters in the world.

That's a lot more terrorist and terrorist supporters than the KKK, IRA, LTTE, FARC, Basque, etc. combined. That's why your attempts to equate the islamofascist threat to the level of the threat of these other groups is disingenuous.
