What do you exactly mean by that? Be more specific.

In terms of the insurgency it seems that people join to see their country become stable again and internally run. They do not trust the US government to bring them what they want so they will fight and kill to get what they want. This type of scenario always brings us to a universal (best for society) moral situation.

Is it OK to kill one person to ensure the safety of 10?
Is it OK to kill 10,000 to bring freedom to 1 million?
Is it OK to kill 3,000 to make life easier for 300 million?

Morals are subjective so there is no right or wrong answer but when you talk about morals on a universal scale, what is best for society, a lot of those will be attempted to be justified.
