Guerrilla warfare is a form of irregular warfare and refers to conflicts in which a small group of combatants including, but not limited to, armed civilians (or "irregulars") use military tactics, such as ambushes, sabotage, raids, the element of surprise, and extraordinary mobility to harass a larger and less-mobile traditional army, or strike a vulnerable target, and withdraw almost immediately.
The term means "little war" in Spanish, and the word, guerrilla, has been used to describe the concept since the 18th century, and perhaps earlier. A person who is a member of a guerrilla is a guerrillero.
The term 'guerrilla' was used within the English language as early as 1809. The word was used to describe the fighters, and their tactics (e.g."the town was taken by the guerrillas"). However, in most languages guerrilla still denotes the specific style of warfare. The use of the diminutive evokes the differences in number, scale, and scope between the guerrilla army and the formal, professional army of the state.
Is the battle that there fighting day and night
It's a misinterpretation of whats wrong and right
It was a violent crime committed on the scene
Well I've come to believe
That some run and some hide its time to get up and stand and fight
Guerrilla warfare cant take the rebels down
Guerrilla warfare were fighting in the trench tonight.
This place is bleeding with the innocent who fought
Now its breathing with a evil to be mistaught
It was a violent crime committed on the scene
Well I've come to believe
That some run and some hide
It's time to get up and stand and fight
Is it fake or is it real
