Honestly I am not real sure. I mean I don't see a big difference between a soldier and a terrorist. What we are calling terrorist today are just people who are fighting to preserve their way of life just like we claim we are doing.

They dont have huge militaries so they cant just declare war and meet us on the battle field so they have to resort to other means. I get that.

During the American Revolution when we fought for our independence against the British, we were overpowered BUT we beat them by using militias. The militias were groups of men that did not wear uniforms and would set up road side ambushes.

In today's terms, we used terrorism to win that war. So, I honestly see no exact definition. If anything, I would say that my government are the true one and only terrorist of the world. Afterall, it is the USA, my government, that keeps sticking it's nose in everybody else's business threatening sanctions, etc.. if the dont do exactly what we want them to do.
