4. Definitions Insurgency : an armed rebellion by any irregular armed force that rises up against an established authority, government, or administration . Those carrying out an insurgency are insurgents. Insurgents conduct sabotage and harassment . Insurgents usually are in opposition to a civil authority or government primarily in the hope of improving their condition. Terrorism: systematic use of terror , manifesting itself in violence and intimidation. Those carrying out terrorism are terrorist. Terrorist conduct violence for the purpose of creating fear in order to achieve a political, economic, religious, or ideological goal . Framework: A logical structure for classifying and organizing complex information.

6. How are insurgencies planned for and what is the process? How are insurgencies carried out and what is the process? Are there any consistencies in the locations and surroundings where insurgencies are carried out? Why are more Iraqi women becoming insurgents? Sample Insurgency Questions That might be Addressed by This Research
