Every arrest over there is great. I just can not understand a person who wants to kill women, children and the innocent with bombs, murder with firearms and knives. Why doesn't the population take more of a lead and turn these killers in, they surely know who they are.

As you know some people get addicted to killing. Take SayDamn, he had is bunch that would fill up the mass graves, to kill at will. Those killers of his are still at large and again, surely the population knows who they are, turn them in or whatever.

Isn't it amazing you have to go to Kuwaiti news sources to find these stories?

From this link:

The noun insurgent has 2 meanings:

Meaning #1: a person who takes part in an armed rebellion against the constituted authority (especially in the hope of improving conditions)
Synonyms: insurrectionist, freedom fighter, rebel

Meaning #2: a member of an irregular armed force that fights a stronger force by sabotage and harassment
Synonyms: guerrilla, guerilla, irregular

Funny, I don't see the word TERRORIST listed as a synonym.

I also don't see activities like the targeting of civilians listed above. And these so-called insurgents don't want to improve conditions, do they? They want to take their respective countries back to the bloody Stone Age.
