FBI Going After Right-Wing Militias

You will the JPP Booby Prize....hint, it's not a boob...neither Witold's nor Evince's.

Yes, I've studied guerrilla warfare AKA asymmetrical warfare since the late 1970s.

Che, a prominent Marxist guerrilla tried to export Marxism to Bolivia where he drew the wrath of the Bolivians who, with the assistance of the CIA US advisors, whacked him. Che had violated some of his own strategies as his attempt to ignite a Marxist revolution failed in Bolivia.

No doubt Che is rolling in his grave due to the ignominy of white middle-class teenage boys attempting to look cool wearing an overpriced t-shirt from the Gap with his visage on it. LOL Life is funny.

Asking you questions doesn't make my IQ low.

You tried to intimidate the mild mannered Libertarian leaning Darth Omar with FBI threats.

But, let BP ( the OP)
Slide for calling to shoot T. A Gardener for no apparent reason.

You're no Libertarian.

You're A Totalitarian Radical Commie.

That would make a very interesting discussion. Che vs. Hồ. That'd make for a great RTS game!

Such tactics are older than the American Revolution since such hit'n'run tactics have been used by many forces when facing a much superior force. German tribes against the Romans. Same for the Celts. Native Americans against the Euros.

The US gets credit for inventing "guerrilla warfare" even though such tactics are as old as the Roman Empire: https://www.npr.org/2013/01/15/169388719/guerrilla-warfare-turningpoint-america-revolution
Today, we're used to having Americans soldiers be the forces of the government. And, of course, in our revolution, we were the insurgents and the British were the role of the counterinsurgency. And, in fact, many of the strategies which the American rebels used against the British are similar in many ways to the strategies now being used against us around the world.

GUERRILLA WAR IN THE NORTH. 1775–1783. The term "guerrilla warfare" came into use after the American Revolution. In the eighteenth century, the term more commonly used was "partisan warfare." They both mean basically the same thing: a type of warfare where the emphasis is on the use of small parties of warriors, sometimes regular soldiers detached from the professional army and sometimes irregulars and only semi-trained fighters. These forces engage in hit-and-run tactics, ambushes, raids, skirmishes, scouting, and other activities, often around and between the larger regular armies, sometimes in conjunction with them, sometimes totally on their own. In the American Revolution, many different types of partisans existed: Whig and Loyalist militia; Native Americans; civilians unattached to any military unit; and detachments from the regular armies. In the northern states, this partisan warfare occurred in two main areas: in combination with the regular armies operating in the area, and on its own against partisans of the other side, be they militia, outlaws, or Native warriors.

Usually the goal of this kind of warfare is to engage the enemy in numerous small engagements in order to inflict casualties while avoiding a potentially war-ending, large-scale battle. By using tactics such as hit-and-run and ambushes, the partisan forces attempt to minimize their own losses while causing a slow but steady drain on the opposing forces. In addition, there is psychological and physical wear and tear as the opposing forces have to fight and stand guard constantly, allowing them little time to rest. In effect, a guerrilla strategy is based on the assumption that the guerrilla forces can outlast the enemy, either in terms of numbers or in terms of willpower. However, it is not entirely accurate to claim that the American rebels engaged in a partisan war with this attritional plan in mind. Much of the guerrilla activity in the war, especially in the northern states, occurred on its own, often with vital interests at stake in a particular region and no other forces available except the local irregular forces. On the other hand, generals such as George Washington also learned to employ guerrilla activities deliberately in an effort to wear down the British. Guerrilla warfare in the American Revolution was complex and varied over the course of the eight and one-half years of war.

The real question is this.

Why do you think Darth Omar is more of a terrorist than Evince or BP ( the OP)
