But when you can't possibly fight back against a military power in these days of high technology, and you've still got fight left in you .... is fighting against the civilian power inevitable? What if that civilian power holds the ultimate sway over the political and military power? When do civilians become the legitimate target of those who have no other means to do battle, but whose battle is justified? Or is such warfare always illegitimate no matter what?
