Oh, hell, it's simple. More of their guys die than those they're fighting against.

I think that even their hit and run tactics are lacking in imagination. I like to read history and the Apache Indians, for one example could hit and run without losing a man. The Viet Cong were able to set up very clever ambushes with deadly results, and again sometimes not lose people. I think that there must indeed be a cultural reason to explain the martyr complex that the Arabs have. They kill enough people as it is, so whatever the reason, I am very thankful that their tactics suck.
