guerrilla, n.Definitions

Guerrilla (n.) may ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠kill precisely to provoke a harsh reprisal — as the KLA did, to win Western support for intervention.

A Guerrilla (n.) force ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠does not get three supply flights a day and complain it lacks helicopters; the contras were a proxy army in guerrilla costume.
