(75,480 posts)even that. It's in the safe house right now, recuperating, ready to arise when the occasion warrants it. I do believe it will have to rely more on guerilla tactics from now on rather than open confrontation. After all it's how the rebels won the American revolution. They really couldn't beat the better armed and manned English by the rules of engagement set by them, but they could by guerilla tactics which they learned from the Native Americans. It's also how the Irish got rid of the English after 800 years of oppression by the British. Sure Ghandi dumped them out of India with peaceful resistance and huge crowds, but we are too spread out and underpopulated to make such a grand theater so I do believe guerilla tactics are in order. No, I'm not advocating violence and I'm speaking in metaphor when using a military term like guerilla, but making our targets really specific, making them really notice, and then dissipating quickly before they can beat you up is what I'm getting at.
