File under: Arab Spring

#1 213 over 14 days, for an average of 15 a day. Pretty low intensity conflict. In Vietnam, the number of people killed on both sides, including civilians, came to about 500 a day. That is literally >30x the daily body count in Libya. At this rate, they could fight for decades without making a dent in the total population. With the exception of a few thousand suicide bombers, modern day Muslim armies seem to talk about martyrdom a lot while avoiding combat like the plague.
