Terrorist or Freedom Fighters

The difference between being a terrorist or a freedom fighter depends on whoes side your own. And how much media coverage you will have or are accessible to,because take the founding father's as an exsample. To all the lords and citizens of Great Britian they were thought to be terrorist and troubling making colonist. That theyr were unappricative of what their King had done for them by helping to make them their own country/colony/state providence. They see them as ungreatful outsiders who needed help they gave it ti them and now they wanted them gone, without paying them back for all the hard work they had put into their land. Eventhou Great Britian would tax the heck out of the colonies still they felt like they were owed something more. So the Americans grouped together and made an alliance of freedom fighters or rebels to try and over throw Britian's rule in American. Because they were trying to grow as a counrty and not need their help anymore. But that was not how it was preceived so Britian sent in troops to keep the Americans rebels at bay until they could be contained and controlled. But they still found time and locations to meet up in secret to try and organized to get their plans for freedom and indepence underway. Until they launched the first attack on them with their tea, and then the hair started to fly
This is pretty much the same as with the United States and Iraq, all we Americans see is how we have been helping Iraq for years and now all of a sudden for them to attack us and want us out of their country. I guess people feel betrayed but who are we to talke when we had and would have done the same thing if we were still in their position during this war. Iraq's become the new American rebels and we are now Great big bad Britian, oh how the tables have turned.
