| #1 By establishing a string of what essentially are fire bases along the border, a virtual wall is created to cut off the free flow of villains in either direction. It also cuts off the transport of heavier weapons from the Pakistani arms markets, and severely inhibits C&C from safe havens to field operations. Right now, the Taliban are frantic to stop the elections, realizing that they represent a de jure as well as de facto end to their reign anywhere in country. |
