Guerilla-Kriege

Fact number one about guerrilla wars: They're not over until the guerrillas win. Mao set out the guerrilla's viewpoint 80 years ago: "The enemy wants to fight a short war, but we simply will not let him." The longer the guerrillas stay in the game, the sicker the occupying army gets. Sooner or later, they'll go home -- because they can. It's that simple, and it works.

Und jetzt testen wir die Theorie an der FARC....der gings auch schon deutlich besser.

Oder den kommunistischen Insurgents in der "Malayan Emergency" in den Fünfziger Jahren.
