CAMERA Snapshots: Analysts: Islamist Terror Deaths up 774 percent | Camera

A March 28, 2016 analysis by the Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT), a Washington D.C.-based organization that monitors extremist groups, found a “stunning increase in deaths caused by radical Islamic terror.” IPT says the threat from Islamic-rooted terrorism continues to grow.
IPT calculated that an average of 3,284 people were murdered in terror attacks from 2007 to 2011. The next year, 2012-2013, that figure jumped to 9,537. From 2014 to 2015, 28,708 people were died in Islamist terror attacks—a 774 percent increase from the 2007-2011 statistics.
