history lesson for the yanks with a short memory...
After the first battle in the american war of independance american troops were swiftly beaten. Some only managed to escape (including George Washington himself) after british officers ordered thier troops to stop. British officers then sent offers of peace talks, George Washington and his remaining troops ran away.

After that George Washington knew facing the might of the British army on the battlefield would lose him the war. So he reverted to terrorist campains breaking the most important rules of war of the time including attacking on christmas day and sending young americans on thier own to be the "suicide bombers" of the day. which basically means sending them out to shoot British officers, but they had to hide in trees etc to get close so in turn it got them shot. - btw not even the french broke that rule of war, even when they were losing.

George Washington also employed small groups of guerilla fighters to hassas British troops.

Aint it funny how some people forget thier own history when its the other side thats doing it to them.
