So if you were the leader of a country and my country was lobbing missiles into your country, what you you as the leader propose to your citizens?
war is never the answer but if your country were invading mine then i would feel it necessary to fight back.

What form does you 'dissent' take?
If you are talking about revolutionary dissent then it is not as more often than not a "new nation" emerges from revolution.
What sort of 'dissent' do you mean?

Doesn't an insurectionist simply fight to free his own land of a perceived tyrant and a terrorist simply fights anyone he can while not particularly wanting or needing to free a particular nation?
I think there is a distinction.

A terrorist is a terrorist if America says it’s a terrorist, at which point it will embark on a 'crusade' (very curious choice of words, even for George idiot Bush) to expunge them.
A freedom fighter is someone that fights with America in its righteous crusade to expunge the terrorists.
An activist does not exist. You are either with America or with them (the terrorists). In other words you are either a terrorist or a freedom fighter.
