If you're a single woman over 40 you should be worried. According to old research, an unmarried woman over 40 had a better chance of being killed by a terrorist than of getting hitched. That. of course, is according to dated research which has now become questionable. But you asked for statistics so I gave you some.

The chance is low, because by definition, the objective of the terrorist is to terrorize. Fear is what they seek to plant not death. Death is their means to an end. You will probably stand a better chance dying from cancer, AIDS or heart disease.

"Terrorism" really just means "being terrorized." I think what concerns you are terrorist acts recently reported in the world-wide news. There are billions of people in the world, so I think your chances of being killed by a terrorist are pretty slim; but I have to admit, the whole idea makes me pretty nervous, too. Folks who pooh-pooh the whole subject are either ignorant (unknowing) or just too lazy to care one way or the other. I'm glad you're not one of those.

You are more likely to be attacked by a shark than killed by a terrorist.
Just stay out of the middle east and you should be okay...well it will bring your chances down.

The chance is less than winning the jackpot in the national lottery. And since I never won a jackpot (and probably will never win one)...
So I don't worry about it (being killed by a terrorist).

in much the same way those other comparisons have environmental, behavioral, and situational factors that can affect the results dramatically, so does the potential to die via terrorism
average American? rather minute IMO
average American walking the street in downtown Baghdad, quite a bit more I would guess

from my opinion, it doesn't matter either we died in terrorist hand or cause of cancer, aids and so on. the most important is do we prepare for the death itself, do we know every single breath that we take right now has been reduce our timeline. we should prepare better than we afraid of. how we are going to end this life is already written and in god knowledge. we should satisfied. so either we ready or not, somehow, anywhere and anytime, death will come to see us, not somebody will come to give u death.
