I have a hard time untangling who is what in the ME in terms of terrorists.insurgents.resistance fighters. I'm not even going to try. I think the most I can say is that I prefer military targets to civilian ones- no matter who is doing the targeting. Mostly because it satisfies certain notions of fair play- since men and women in uniform go in to combat aware, and babies and children and women and the elderly not in uniform, as well as men just going about their daily work, have not signed up, and aren't (usually) armed combatants. It's one reason why 9/11 was so horrible, and it's why blowing up civilians elsewhere is equally horrible.
