We had a thread years ago, "What Are You Currently Watching?", that may have covered some of this ground before. Two recent shows that apply:
1. The Wire. The best show on counter-insurgency I've seen. The drug war in Baltimore, surveillance, informants, police brutality, community policing (and the absence of it), and a great demonstration of the "power of weakness" in the first season.
2. Battlestar Galactica. One of the seasons had a "humans occupied by aliens" plot like Colony, which included the humans using suicide bombers in their rebellion.
