"Do we have the strength of will, as a military and as a nation, to defeat an enemy who has nothing to lose?"

That's what Hell Week is for!

John Campbell's "Barbarian." His essay on the three types of social organization dealt with this situation.
Sadly, I haven't been able to find a copy on the internet.

Ralph loves his footnotes.

When thugs wearing uniforms meet real soldiers, Hell comes to breakfast. And the thugs pay the butchers bill.

I don't like the classification of these terrorists at warriors.

I'd like to think that warrior is an honorable title for a class of professional warfighter that protects America.

If we are going to call the bad guys warriors is the title of Crusader still available?
