2. Definition of 'Insurgent'
insurgent

adj : in opposition to a civil authority or government n 1: a person who takes part in a rebellion in the hope of improving conditions 2: a member of an irregular armed force that fights a stronger force by sabotage and harassment

Seems like an accurate description to me. I'm just surprised that they're not labeled as "terrorists".
