#1 i thought it was supposed too be the dreaded spring offensive instead of hot months. Did they change the name for the new administration?

#2 They are too spread and underground. We need some bait. Something to insult their ego and lure them in a big boom.

They need targets to make news.

I honestly think air dropping swine or a huge rubber buddha would bring them out faster.

If all we do is patrol, they will find something to attack, like civilians.
