Pakistani Civilian Deaths

Here is a statistic that gives some perspective.

"Earlier this week, Pakistan's military reported that suicide attacks have killed nearly 1,200 people — most of them civilians — since the July 2007 army attack on militants holed up in Islamabad's radical Red Mosque."

This doesn't even count the civilians killed by US flying robots.
