Terrorist vs. Freedom Fighter

This one is for those liberals who actually believe it's patriotic to disagree with the President on foreign policy (it's not).

Do you know the difference between a freedom fighter and a terrorist?

A terrorist targets the population to affect change in their country through fear.

A freedom fighter targets the people in power to affect change through a change of the power base.

1 Very well said. I've said it before, and now again...I'm sick and tired of the lefties sympathizing with the enemy. What we are fighting is nothing less that EVIL.

5 Two points: it is not patriotic to disagree with the president on any policy because you don't like him(her?) or are of the opposing party. It is a patriotic duty to speak out against a policy one thinks is wrong-headed/immoral etc. I welcome debate; I don't beleive in name-calling or playing grown up versions of color-war. The difference between a terrorist (who may target the power base as well as citizens) and a freedom fighter is what they are fighting for. Saddaam Hussein was a master criminal who was terrorizing his populace into compliance, like Hitler, and Stalin and all the rest, his being deposed was for the betterment of the people as a whole. It was not to become the power, but to release the power to everyone. At least, that is my opinion.

6 Hmmm... I'd be careful with that idea of defining a freedom fighter as what they are fighting for... However, I think you're dead on with that last part about "the betterment of the people as a whole." Now if we can just get others to agree on what the betterment of people is... Thanks for stopping by!

7 You may be right about the "what" part. As far as betterment, just follow me. I'll take as many adherents as I can get ;-)
