It's hard to answer that specifically, but let me give just one example. The current Palestinian uprising has killed 600 Israelis with the loss of only 2000 Palestinians. The Palestinians are winning simply by breeding faster and throwing away their lives despite Israel's use of shock and awe tactics. The Palestinians do this very simply using war crimes: attacking civilians and pretending to be civilians when they are combatants. It's very difficult to wage a successful war against a population containing nearly unlimited numbers of hidden combatants.
