What makes them terrorists? Hanging out in a warzone, carrying a gun, as Sir Krustin put it, Doesn't sound very terroristy. Most armies tend to do that. What did this Hicks character do against the civilian populace?

Also, what exactly do you mean with "They don't represent a nation or a government"? Foehammer's post makes them sound a bit too organized for civilians.
