Interesting numbers. Obviously disturbing.
On a secondary level, the lower number of USA fighters is interesting. A couple of years ago I heard an analysis that stated that Muslims in the US are integrated and treated better; hence, fewer radicalized fighters.

There is also a security alert now in effect in America due to ISIL's avowal to retaliate for American air strikes. The concern is that there will be acts of terror in the days or weeks ahead here in the USA both by ISIL-affiliated Muslims and by lone-wolf Muslims in sympathy with ISIL even if they do not belong in a formal sense.
