I can see there being large percentages for political ideology terror, nationalist terror or gang-related terror, but I think to say "only 4% of terror attacks are religiously based" is really low. It's like taking all the Islamist terror and saying "it's not about Islam, therefore Islamic terror barely exists".
Look the stats up for yourself. I presented them once, here. I'm rather tired of posting them again and again whenever someone feels some opinionated piece nails it.
Also, the 11.000 rightwing attacks last year in Germany were presented by the German authorities a few days ago. And guess, who the victims of choice mostly were.
These are facts, based on official statistics. Everything else is pulled from the ass.
OK, a quick search turned up the newest report.

Page 19 of the pdf. A graph showing that religious terror is on the rise. But they're talking about arrests. 395 in 2014 all over Europe. Again, not completed attacks, but arrests and not convictions. Compare that to the 11.000 in Germany.
Page 36 presents antisemitic and anti islamic terrorism across the EU, for comparison.
