Well I mean nothing wrong with using the conditions you're handed
By its nature insurgents need to give some reason for the power they're attacking to figure it ain't worth if, cuz insurgents can almost never match firepower.

Woah there OP, you need to define some terms.
How are you separating out the "ESSENTIAL" from the implied trivial, and in such a way that leaves most if not all "resistance" groups (what are they?) lacking, even the ones that managed to get whatever political concessions they were going for?

Mau Mau managed to seriously spook the Brits.
I can't say that they achieved major military feats, but the Brits just kind of fucked off shortly after the Mau Mau uprising.
