You are tired of being persecuted in your own land (you lived here long before his tribe did), and you want your own country back under your control. You do not have much money, and you will not hesitate to use violence, if you deem it necessary. You also need to get the world’s attention and support for your plight.
How are you going to accomplish these aims–in detail, please. I would like to see a lot of interaction among everyone in the group on this topic in particular. Do you consider yourself a terrorist or a freedom fighter in this scenario and why?
