Wow, this has been an education...
Seems that if you say smoking kills, you'll find someone who'll show how smoking saved their life! or if you suggest guns are bad you'll get a 140 page document shoved under your nose showing how guns are good for the world !
My point was, let's be honest, terrorism at present is Islamic terrorism. Let's be honest about it in order to help us deal with it.
Yes my maths was based on "how it feels", so apologies for that, but surely we are on the same side... ?
We have one life that is so precious, so killing someone for any reason is so wrong.
How is ISIS a threat to you depends on what you want in life? freedom or religious persecution?

So, are all the people killed by Americans in the name of America American terror victims? Or Ukraine? Or China? Or Russia? Is a drone strike on civilians terrorism?
How is ISIS a direct threat to me today here in California? Or a threat to anyone outside of their theater of war?
How is ISIS a threat to you depends on what you want in life? freedom or religious persecution?
PS if you're about to post a reply and your response is going to be negative, improper, average, odd, obtuse, irrational, an argument, might change the focus, going off at a tangent or just mean ... go and find a maths forum to post on instead, they'll love you !!
