[Ender Wiggin]

A very small team is a band of terrorists, with limited effectivity in time and space. A major uprising needs a hundred thousand with the will to fight. Small bands and street mobs the government can handle.

Persistent, forceful opposition is another story- ask Mubarak!

Small bands and street mobs the government can handle.

Britain and the IRA, for example, right?
