Insurgents, Yes, but they were rounded up by Sadaam's government and shot. Then following the Gulf-war, the Kurds and Shia tried to separate/ revolt and where gassed or machine-gunned.
Terrorists, not as we see today. Those have come from Syria, Saudia Arabia, and Iran.
The Terrorists during Sadaam's reign was his police and his SONS... do remember that Ude is attributed with roughly 900 rapes and murders HIMSELF.

They were there. The difference is that back then they were all working for Saddam.
