List of Islamist terrorist attacks

Pages from the Koran, the holy book of Islam.

The September 11 attacks caused 2,996 deaths, caused by the radical Islamic organization Al Qaeda.

What follows is a non-exhaustive list of terror attacks due to Islamic Supremacism. Some websites and sources, notably the Liberal Media and Wikipedia,[1] have been known for trying to hide the Islamist motivation for attacks. Overall terrorist attacks have sharply increased after the 9/11 attacks in 2001.[2]

As noted below, the list only provides the number of innocent people killed in the attacks; the death tolls do not include suicide attackers who kill themselves as part of their attacks, or terrorists who are killed by police or the military during their attacks.
