So far, the numbers are relatively small, but the trouble could easily escalate. If it could be nipped in the bud now, the total death toll might stay in the four-digit range. If it spirals out of control, six digits is very possible. And it would take much, much longer for the community scars to heal.
A political solution is needed, but it will probably also require military implementation. The UN might - MIGHT - be able to work out the first one, and once they have got that, some AU or UN troops should be enough to settle things down.
What most bothers me is that Kenya used to be one of the best examples of a more-or-less stable, functioning, democratic country in Africa. One dodgy election result and WHOOM. I'd love them to get back on track ASAP.
