that does not change the fact that they are terrorists. Their motives are not of those seeking freedom but those seeking oppression. You don't terrorize a population which you want to see freed. You do it as an object lesson. You see THIS is what supporting the government will get you and when we take over you better bow down or we will do even worse!

It is true that these people use violent force against those in support of the new government, yet I still believe their cause is ultimately that of freedom, and not of oppression. Their goals are in the interest of driving foreign influences out, and instead propagating their own ideals. The terrorizing of civilians can be considered depraved and indecent, but to them the means justify the ends. I am not speaking on their behalf per se, but I am trying to understand the logic that drives their actions. I do believe, however, that they have a right to defend themselves against invasion and foreign influences.
