In an effort to further illustrate the increased number of terrorism attacks under the Bush administration, I created several more graphs. This time, broken down by year.
First, all "major" attacks against U.S. interests, including abortion-related terrorism and terrorism in Iraq and Afghanistan. Regarding the latter, I only listed the attacks noted at this source. There are certainly more that can be attributed to terrorism, but I'm trying to keep the sources consistent.
Up next, all "major" attacks against U.S. interests by year, without abortion-related terrorism and without attacks by terrorists in Afghanistan and Iraq:
And finally, I was struck by the number of abortion-related attacks (including the 2009 murder of Dr. Tiller) versus the number of Islamic terrorist attacks on American soil. The difference is remarkable:
Right-wing extremism, by the numbers, appears to be more prevalent inside the United States than Islamic terrorism.
UPDATE: Predictably, the doofs at Fox & Friends suggest that there's been a "recent uptick" in terrorism, and it's all President Obama's fault:
