It was in part a civil war, asshole. And it was an oranges and computers comparison to compare what Reagan did with SAvimbi, to what every admin up until Bush II, the UN and Weurope did with Arafat. The continuing legacy of effect is quite different.

That Savimbi was supposedly fighting a civil war -- or a part one, whatever you mean by that -- doesn't mean he was using government troops, as Ty read your comment.
Arafat was certainly better at grabbing headlines with his terror. But I doubt he was responsible for more deaths and mutilations that either Unita or the Renamo bastards that Reagan, Helms, et al gleefully supported. After all, as Spanky would apparently have it, you can't be a terrorism if you are fighting communists.
