In the current vernacular, an insurgent is a terrorist.

Remember, the press won’t use the term terrorist.

If the press is going to use the term insurgent instead, then they can’t toss it around indiscriminately.

Brown shows her shallow nature, by this unfortunate choice of words. It was a major slander.

An insurgency is a rebellion against a constituted authority (for example an authority recognised as such by the United Nations) when those taking part in the rebellion are not recognised as belligerents

A general definition from good old Wicked Pedia.
