Multiply 70 by 1000 and the IDF will be getting somewhere.
Agreed. But the muslims will not fight a conventional war; they haven't the equipment, the brains nor the tactical training to do so (they haven't had it since the Turks)and realize they'd reach your 1000:1 kill ratio if they tried, hence the cowardly guerilla tactics. I would think our military has been consulting with the Israelis all along as to how to deal with these types as we face this crap in Iraq/Afghanistan, and although information isn't released as to how many insurgents and their supporters are being killed, I suspect the ratio to the U.S. forces is quite handsome.
