Is the guy who blows up the abortion clinic an insurgent? How about those who mailed anthrax around the U.S.? What about Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols, insurgents? The kids who shot up Columbine, insurgents too I suppose? All just helpless victims of the good old U. S. A., rebelling against authority right?He left out the ALF and its political wing, PETA.

The use of the term insurgents in this case in not only inappropriate, its an outright lie and its dangerous
The author is correct in calling these thugs terrorists. He is incorrect in stating that it is not an insurgency. These are not mutually exclusive terms. Although heavily augmented by outside groups, there is ample intelligence concluding that the "uprising" was initiated by overthrown Batthists, making it an insurgency, one using heinous terrorist tactics, but an insurgency noneetheless
Thats because they are not insurgents rising up against some brutal tyrannical regime
Contrary to the author's opinion, an insurgency does not have to be against a brutal regime.

Maybe because on average the fannies aren't as fat on your side of the pond. Over here the medical establishment pushed a low-fat regimen for so many years that the people thought this meant it was allright to eat a high-sugar diet instead.
To: Cycle watcher
No, the word means something else over here. Too rude to post, though.

Alright. The enemy in Iraq are enemy combatants. They do fit the definition of insurgents as you indicated. They also fit the definition of people. But to say that the people of Iraq are opposing the United States occupation doesn't come near telling the real story.
What states the primary truth is that "the terrorists in Iraq are opposing the US liberation."
To: MACVSOG68
The fact is that these so-called "insurgents" are part & parcel of the overthrown brutal tyrannical regime. The true "insurgents" are those Iraqi's who voted and dyed their fingers and continue to support a real change in the political fabric of their Nation, in the face of continued "TERRORIST ACTS," by that prior brutal tyrannical regime's minions. Mince words all you like, after all, disembodied truth is the mainstay of all terrorists and their supporters. Straight talk is the way to go, leftist innuendo is hell's hand basket.

Are you suggesting I am a supporter of the terrorists? And what words did I mince? And above all, please point out the errors in my earlier post.
Straight talk is the way to go, leftist innuendo is hell's hand basket.
Perhaps I am misreading you, but the only innuendo I see appears aimed at me. If so, please drop the innuendo and be more specific, because straight talk is the only way to go. Thank you.
To: Cycle watcher
But to say that the people of Iraq are opposing the United States occupation doesn't come near telling the real story.I did not say or even imply that. Please explain.
To: MACVSOG68
Sorry. I tried to make a logical comparison but I misstated it badly.
I guess what I wanted to say was that you were right that the enemy fit the definition of insurgents. However, the definition that more fully describes them in this case is "terrorists".
To: Treader
Mince words all you like, after all, disembodied truth is the mainstay of all terrorists and their supporters.That was uncalled for. You owe him/her an apology.

To: RaceBannon
I'll let you off the hook. It's Brit slang for a female's private parts. That's why what we call "fanny packs" they refer to as "bum bags". Now read the headline with that definition in mind.

Well, they are called FANNYs here, too, and that is also what the headline meant, you mean that in England that headline wouldn't be printed?
