Worldwide Incident Tracking System. There were sixteen incidents in the U.S. since February 2, 2004 with zero fatalities, injuries or hostages=zero victims. Lebanon, on the other hand...

Make sure not to miss the 2007 Counterterrorism Calendar (PDF) which is truly a piece of propaganda to behold.

"There was an error opening the document. The viewer cannot decrypt the document."

That's utterly fantastic. I didn't know DHS had working grasp of detournement.

This wasn't even reported in the local Swedish newspaper, but some bureaucrat in Washington was paid to enter it as an "incident of terrorism" into this stupid database? Obviously the Department of Fatherland Security has nothing better to do.

Out of 175 incidents in the UK, only 4 were NOT in Northern Ireland. One of those 4 was the July 7 attacks on London, accounting for 752 of the total 946 victims.

between Kings Cross Station and Russell Square Station, between Liverpool Street Station and Aldgate Station on the Piccadilly line, and between Edgeware Road Station and Paddington Station on the Circle line

I'm not sure civilians are meant to know that Liverpool Street and Aldgate are on the Piccadilly Line.

07/08/2004 United States BYU targeted by ALF in Provo, Utah

Oh wait, not that ALF. This one.

My bad.

And here I was thinking the new face of terror was brown, fuzzy, and had a hand up its ass.

Your confusion is understandable as that was the Federal Emergency Management Agency during Katrina.

Awesome post.

Jimbob - someone oughtta get credit for listing that as a terrorist event given that it was "us" attacking "them." Too bad Gitmo didn't make the cut.

The calendar is the bomb! I mean that in a good way.

One of the end sheets tells you what to do if you "have suspicions": report suspicious people or activity to these guys first (the FBI is the second option listed).

Neat!

Why does the Counterterrorism Calendar have British police on the front cover?

TrashyRambo: that was the first thing I wondered as well. Solidarity...? I dunno.
