Thanks for checking my spelling, albed, er I mean theknife.
But back to your point, an insurgent who attacks military targets and avoids civilians is clearly not a terrorist, and I can say that without endorsing their actions. So can Iraq. They don't support the insurgency, officially anyway, but like you they worry too much about symantics. While they don't actually recognize the insurgent's right to resist, they do recognize the insurgent's right not to be mislabeled. Americans have the right to kill insurgents, and so far Iraq has acknowledged that right and supported us in that effort with their police and military forces. They're clearly on our side.
