Quote:In 2013, according to the US Department of State, a total of 9,707 terrorist attacks occurred worldwide, resulting in more than 17,800 deaths and more than 32,500 injuries. In addition, more than 2,990 people were kidnapped or taken hostage. Information about perpetrators was reported in source materials for 32 percent of terrorist attacks in 2013.

But other than that, it's pretty vague on where they got a Muslim head count. Or the number of mosques. And it makes mention of Japan fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan, but I'm sure you know they only took part in reconstruction and support, Japan did not send troops to actively fight.
