Make some charts, it's fun

The Terrorist Knowledge Base(sponsered by the Dept. of Homeland Security, has a nifty little chart wizard that allows you to make charts of terrorist attacks using various data criteria. As I posted a while back, Karl Rove made a blanket statement about the liberal vs. conservative approach to terrorism. I think this chart displaying the number of "international" terror incidents in the past 20 years is a pretty good indicator of the real difference between liberal and conservative policies on terrorism.
UPDATE: THERE WAS A GRAPH HERE, BUT IT DOESN'T WORK. Make your own, it's fun.

It's hard to read the years, but this chart ranges from 1985-2005. Each bar is one year. Notice the decline until the year 2000 and then the sharp increase after. This is a stolen idea, but it's worth looking at. Check out the graph wizard too.
