Some people say a guerilla never loses in the long run (not talking about drug related ones)?

Question

And it seems to have been that way for ever. Look at Vietnam, Irak and now Lebanon, look at all the real major conflicts where guerillas have gone stronger and stronger, defeating the strongest "official" armies and governments. Ultimately they always win, one way or another.
And I am not talking terrorism even if they associates sometimes in our modern world, so let's try to stay focused on guerilla itself. What do you make of that ?

Answer 1

I totally agree with you. If you are foolish enough to listen to Israeli and US propoganda, you may call these people terrorists, but we know they are defending their homes so we must call them Guerillas who are freedom fighting. Just take a look at this question.

One persons terrorist is another's freedom fighter. I call those in the link TERRORISTS.

Answer 2

The guerilla warfare is successful if thet have strong moral and ethical reasons for their struggle. Guerilla war must be sustained through motivation which comes from the legitimacy of the cause.

Answer 3

The only advantage that most guerrillas have is in their lack of concern for the bystanders.

Notice how they TARGET civilians as a policy. The US and Israel do not have a policy of targeting civilians. That is what is keeping these conflicts going.

Answer 4

Anyone fighting to protect their land and their fellow countrymen could never loose!!

Anyone who does that but happens to be doing it to America or Friends is a terrorist!

Israel will not accomplish their military mission and therefore they are just killing Innocent people for the hell of it!
