“Israel suffered the equivalent of twenty-three September 11, 2001 World Trade Center Arab Islamic terrorist attacks in the 4.8 year period from September 27, 2000 to July 23, 2005, in terms of Arab Islamic terrorism deaths in Israel scaled up from Israel’s Jewish population to the U.S. population.” – Michael D.

Woundings include arms and legs blow off, blindings, and shrapnel wounds due to nails packed with the bombs to maximize the deaths and woundings.

Using these more recent figures, extrapolating the woundings based on the two figures for murders by multiplying by (1,073 / 953), and multiplying by 60 to scale by the ratio of U.S. population to Israel’s Jewish population, results in the following Arab Islamic terrorist murders and woundings in the U.S.: … Continue reading →
