Don’t you think it’s up a bit, what with all the invasion and war?

Up, and then some due to the technological factors. Yet still, it ain’t the Mongols lopping off countless heads in Bagdad, now is it?!

in there and put large swathes of the population to the sword. Could/would China do that?

Well, they have in the past.

and as for suicide bombers, I’m all for them. In fact, let’s get all AQ sympathizers and agitators, and all Taliban as well, to don a vest and congregate in some remote wadi, and then push the trigger at the same time. That would be just tops! I fully support their right to blow themselves up.

I don’t know if they could get away with it right now. Europeans, in the least, would stop buying their shit. Only countries with nothing to lose can get away with such things on such a scale.
