When Argentina occupied the Falkland Islands, the UK military who fought them weren't described as a terrorist organisation. Not by anyone with an ounce of sense at least, and certainly not by the islanders who's land and homes had been occupied.
Every indigenous group that fights an occupying force gets labeled a terrorist organization.
Well done, that's less false than your initial comment.
Thanks for testing my thesis.
Hmm, I wonder what the difference might be...
How is the UK not the occupying force there? The Falkland Islands are nowhere fucking near us.
