If it is a sort of civil war, then, it is much more one like both multilateral and bilateral struggles among and between multiple armed groups.
His description of the difficulty bringing such conflicts to a truce typifies the ambivalence and ambiguity of his account.
At bottom, it is an internally logically inconsistent account.
