    Well plenty in fact including the one where the name guerilla comes from, but this isn't a guerilla war.
    To which do you refer Frag , the Latin or the German origin?
    If it the Latin then you are bolloxed because the occupiers lost militarily and then lost pretty badly sitting at a table after their weakness had been fully exposed .

    You aren't exactly schooled in Roman history are you

    edit, I forgot, the term guerilla comes from the Boney era, Spain. Somewhat later then Rome.

    Is that because I mentioned the Latin version which was many hundreds of years after the Romans?
    Though the same was true for the Romans in the long term if you go for the germanic origin of the word .

    edit, I forgot,
    Yes indeed , but it matters not because both origins show the flaws of your attempted arguement

    OK, enough.

    The topic will be put to sleep while I hand out the warning points and I don't want to see another Israel/Palestine thread for at least a week. The next one had better be civil or punishments will be swift and unannounced.

    Thank you to those that found the time and balance to post interesting thoughts.
