A well armed militia? To name a few counter-examples:
1- Algeria (France);
2- The French in Indochina: they got out too late;
3- Vietnam: they got out too late in disregard of DeGaulle's (VLQL) warning to JFK to keep out!
4- Afghanistan: well... they didn't learn the above lessons.
In all these cases, well armed and well trained armies were defeated by (hum) inferior forces!
Moral: Guerrilla warfare is always a lose/lose conflict!
