You need more like 18 million. The stats on insurgencies are 10 percent supporting and 1 percent acting. And supporting isn't just in theory, these are stash houses, escape routes, and weapons builders. But that's just to get started. You need to convince a majority of people otherwise when you actually try to march in the open the military will just crush you.
