4000 dead since 2004

Did you know that there has been 4000 dead since 2004 in India due to terrorist attacks? I heard this statistic quoted on Saturday by Fox News.

It seems amazing that when compared to the much smaller number killed in the 9/11 attacks, and even compared to troop deaths in Iraq, this suggests that India is a soft target. Of course, Fox and other right wing pundits lay the blame at the feet of radical islamists.
