Terrorists have attacked the Ayatollah Khomeini mausoleum and Iranian parliament in two nearly simultaneous incidents:
There have been multiple attacks in the Iranian capital of Tehran, according to state media. A woman was arrested after a bomb attack and shooting spree wounded two people at the Ayatollah Khomeini mausoleum south of the city Wednesday, the semi-official Fars news agency reports. The news agency reported that a second attacker is currently surrounded by security officers.
That attack occurred at the same time as a shooting in the Iranian parliament, in which at least three people were injured after an attacker stormed the building in central Tehran, according to state-run Press TV.
Also at Washington Post, BBC, Reuters, Al Jazeera, and Tehran Times.

Currently averaging around 60 islamist murders a day during this years ramadan.
[CITATION NEEDED]
Even assuming you're unsupported assertion is correct how does that compare to the US murder rate of 44 murders per day on all 365 days of the year? [reference.com]
Keep in mind that only 1 per every 4-days can be attributed to terrorism (by all religions). [cato.org]

It's about 75%? A disturbing increase since 2007. [economist.com]

That link does not support your claim.
But, let's take this non-sequitur at face value.
Last 30 Days - During this time period, there were 190 Islamic attacks in 27 countries, in which 1535 people were killed and 1806 injured.
That's 51 per day. So, you need to combine 27 countries in order to beat the US murder rate by 6.

It's the exact same data (constant updates) used to create the graphic (updated daily).
Many of US homicides are gang related and concentrated in certain neighbourhoods. Take Chicago [heyjackass.com] (see most violent hoods stat) and figure out how that violence can be brought under control. Your claims amount to false equivalence and certainly in Western Europe, US style mass murders are extremely rare. Terrorism, not so rare.

I just did a quick addition for you; running average 767 / 13 = 59.

OK so you are saying the numbers are acceptable given the US homicide rate?
Just out of curiosity, what would be an unacceptable level of Islamic terrorism for you?

His point is that the numbers are not out of the ordinary. Particularly given that source's propensity categorize any muslim behaving badly as solely a consequence of his muslimness.
Statistics without context are meaningless at best, and dishonest at worst. Or, as Samuel Clemens said, "Lies, damn lies and statistics."

Salifism -- this is jihad dickhead! Don't worry, it's only explained on the site; [thereligionofpeace.com] The web site you couldn't be bothered to read before accusing others of bigotry. You fucking bigot!
Or as that quote attributed to Stalin [quoteinvestigator.com] said; "a single death is a tragedy, a million deaths is a statistic".
I disagree. The US needs to sort out the death tolls in St Louis, Baltimore, Detroit, New Orleans and Chicago. The world needs to sort out the death toll due to jihad.
I do not care if you disagree with me and are pro-murder. I will speak up and out against this bullshit; You just have yourself a nice day!

And 3000 per day die on the roads... but that's normal, so carry on. And in US, similar number as cars die from gun violence, but that's normal too, so carry on. God forbid "islamist" kill a few in mostly unstable areas of the world (like Iraq, thanks GWB!), then everyone goes crazy.
