Not to justify either method, but that's a few orders of magnitude away from the "war on terror" casualties. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casualties_of_the_Ira

- tsally 17y agoTrue, but the scale of the war on terror (based on populations of the countries involved) is a few orders of magnitude larger than the Israeli/Palestinian conflict. If you adjust the number of casualties for population, the two numbers become similar. Of course, this comparison is still a naive one, but it's a lot closer to reality than comparing the two conflicts by the raw number of casualties only.
