Here's a conflict that I hope produces more casualties...
Gunmen clashed with members of the Hamas-led police force in a Gaza City hospital on Tuesday, wounding at least five people, medics and witnesses said.It was the latest round of internal fighting in the Palestinian-ruled coastal territory since Hamas rose to power in March after an upset election victory.
In the last two days two members of the rival Fatah movement have been shot and wounded by unknown assailants in Gaza.
It's sort of like the good old days of the Iran-Iraq War, two rival Islamic Koran-thumpers and their followers thinning each other out by the hundreds of thousands.
(Sadly, not thinning each other out enough.)

We have the same situation in central city New Orleans--scum killing scum, but not fast enough to counter the birth/recruitment rate. A good infusion of bad mexican black tar heroin or some super crack into the local drug culture would speed things up considerably. I'm not normally in favor of crime, but sometimes anarchy is more a solution than a problem.
