My opinion of this is that he is totally clueless about the POLITICS behind war. War is not just a random series of killings, there is a political reason behind all these killings, and this guy and his team totally fail to consider the political dimension. When they "extract the key pieces of data" they ignore the political dimension entirely, they discard the back story and the causal relations between the economic and political factors and war. War is not just an isolated series of killings, it is "politics conducted by other - violent - means" as Clausewitz said, and that principle has been totally lost here.
