There have been 30 major mass casualty attacks directed 
    against the United States, Britain, France, Spain, 
    Pakistan, Kenya, Tanzania, India, Iraq, Morocco, Yemen, 
    Tunisia, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and North 
    Osetia. 14 of the 30 attacks were conducted prior to the 
    invasion of Iraq, making claims of the occupation of Iraq 
    as a casus belli for al Qaeda’s terrorism to be 
    disingenuous at best. 4,895 people have been killed in 
    these attacks, and 12,345 plus have been wounded. The 
    majority of the countries attacked are Muslim countries. 
    And although not stated, the vast majority of the victims 
    of al Qaeda's violence are Muslims.
