I would say the Spanish Civil War is a fair example. With every extreme from Fascist to Anarchist involved in the fight.

But anyway back to your final point, the answer is to gain the trust of the local population. We have tried fighting for the last decade or so, that does not seem to have worked, so maybe showing the benefits of the Capitalist system (a stable life, with minimal risk of being blown up by extremists) is the way to go. That seems to me the best way to deal with the problem and keep my family safe.
