    I'm surprised that no one seems to have any thoughts on this subject.

    Let me speak for most people when I say that one side are "freedom fighters", and the other side are "terrorists". See, "freedom fighters" blow things up and kill people to further the cause of freedom; "terrorists", on the other hand engage in violence only in the cause of "terror", or of "tyranny", or because "they hate our freedoms."
    I hope your not one of those optimistic-pessimists who is trying to "blur the distinctions."

    Now just set your price and name your party; you're ripe for a career in politics!
