Group sounds somehow unnatural.

As far as consensus goes, I might say that there should be pretty much a 
consensus that they are an armed group. I doubt anyone would dispute 
they use weapons to help their voice be heard.

Any other reference (left-extremist or terrorist) is a POV rather than a 
factual description so should be left aside
