From A Dutch newspaper, not known for hawkish views:
4/17/2004: Jihad Death Count
Dutch newspaper NRC Handelsblad reports that in the period between September 11, 2001 and April 15, 2004, Islamic terrorists have killed at least 7,085 people and wounded 10,132 in 393 attacks around the world.
The surprising thing is that the study appeared in a Dutch paper not known for a hawkish stance; to see them use the word moslimterreur with no scare quotes is a sign that Europe is beginning to worry.
And they even include attacks in Israel. Be aware, however, that in some cases the terrorists themselves are included in the death count.
