The term "insurgents" seems to be utilized in order to attribute some legitimacy to the actions taken.

That's a view held by a few here, and not by others. Like I told Lucky, I don't see the import outside of our own personal feelings and agendas.

Many rightwing militias in Central America carried out similar slaughters in remote villages and they were called anticommunist forces or freedom fighters by some, depending on the country and the time.

There is not much new under the sun, sadly.
