When news leaked that the U.S. State Department annual report on terrorism showed that terrorist incidents have in fact increased after the invasion of Iraq, the Bush Administration decided to scrap the report, since it shows that the world is not safer after this invasion.
Now, it seems that pressure has caused the administration to release the report with several interesting statistics facts in it. Here is a very telling summary:
In 2003, there were 208 incidents, while in 2004, there was 651.
Year | # of Incidents | # of people killed |
2003 | 208 | 625 |
2004 | 651 | 1907 |
Meanwhile, it is interesting to see some government agencies ignore the domestic threat form American extremist groups.
