As Muslim population in US increases so do terrorist threats: Study
As the Muslim population increases in the United States, so too will the number of Islamic terror attacks, according to police and military terrorism analysts who spoke to Conservative Base’s Jim Kouri. This is because the pool from which the radicals recruit grows bigger. Polls have shown that between 5 – 25% of Muslims in America believe that violence in defense of Islam is justified.
The number of potential terrorists therefore grows proportionately with the overall number, even if only a small minority actually plot terror, according to the think-tank Religion of Peace.
Researchers at The Religion of Peace also studied the history of Islamic terrorism on American soil since 1972, here’s what they came up with:.
