		Markos Vafiadis was insisting on guerrilla type of battles, using the element of surprise on the enemy, while Zachariadis was recklessly adamant on fighting face to face with his opponents.

		This inconvenient thesis was rejected by the government, which announced, in advance of any evidence, that the Communists were responsible for Polk's death.
