Soldiers are not "innocent civilians", they are (from the rebelians perspective) invaders, therefore your question is at fault. Also, the insurgents are NOT terrorists. A terrorist is one who uses or threatens use of force or violence against people or property with the intention of intimidating or coercing societies or governments, often for ideological or political reasons. These people are not trying to scare anyone, they want the soldiers to leave. If you consider them to be terrorists, you have to also consider the US soldiers to be terrorists. Something tells me you arren't willing to see our soldiers as terrorists.

They are political prisoners because they are involved in a political dispute, they say we have no rigght to impose a government, we say we do.
