Jeff: "There are no reasonable estimates because there's no way of properly gathering and verifying such information. But my guess is that it's more like 20:1 or 100:1. First because the revolutionaries have no reason whatsoever to aim their guns against members of a conscript army which they were until recently members of themselves, perhaps with the exception of certain hated figures (who wouldn't be easy targets), and except for self-defense as has been occurring in Homs." Talk about self-deception! Even the rebels don't claim such preposterous ratios, and furthermore they have on many occasions claimed to have killed members of the army.
