I'm sure some of you have watched star trek.

If voyager is one of the series you watched, you may have heard of the maquis.

But what were they? Have a vote on the poll.

Google search "star trek maquis"


I am in an arguementive mood so don't mind if I seem to switch sides all the time. I'm just playing devil's advodcate.

I messed up again.

Go here ((It's actually right this time)):

Partisans?

Francs Tireurs? (also WW2 French!)

Guerrillas?

It's there in the variety of the names.

Heroes or terrorists, it depends at least as much on where you're standing, as on what they are actually doing.

Suicide attacks? Churchill was prepared to advise the Britsh civilian population: "You can always take one with you."
