Boxer Revolution Not Boxer Rebellion
A rebellion is about resistance. We are going to kick out the bad guys and replace them with a legitmate government. That's revolution. Historically, the Boxer Rebellion was a loser. We are going to win.

1. Here is a description of the actual BOXER REBELLION
And it does not fit but very interesting history lesson about foreign powers.

3. talk to Newt Gingrich about revolutions
It's not language that sits very well with the American public ... regardless of how much it pleases the loyal cadres.

I'd say call it the Boxer Rebellion but, underneath, let's be clear that we're after the necessary generational revolution that Thomas Jefferson advocated.
