M.L. separating the two is a western idea that is generally not shared by the rest of the world which is why Marx said "You can't separate Politics from Economics." IMO this is the source of every problem we have inside America and Outside America.
I wasn't separating the two. I was simply stating that any armed group that has economic ends without political ends that operates outside the law is a criminal, not insurgent group.
This does not mean that economics is not part of insurgency, rebellion, etc...
There are two types of people in this world, those who divide the world into two types and those who do not.
