Here's two tips from someone who knows, on why this is retarded, and why winning against this scenario is to not fight them in this manner.
- For an insurgency to win, it simply has to not lose. That's it. You don't need to win, to win, you need to outlast the other guy. See: Afghanistan.
- If you are a 'home based' insurgency, you basically sit at your home on the porch drinking coffee, looking at all of those camo tards with the ISR up in the sky looking for.......absolutely nothing. Because you're all at home drinking coffee right now. There are so many of you, that causing random problems like all of a sudden a convoy is hit, or 1-2 random soldiers shot from who knows where or whatever (think large scale IRA), that no one can remotely be tied to anything as its everyone and no one at the same time. Just drink coffee on your porch for the most part. Don't fight them heads up, ever, because, why?
Anyone with a plan to attack/ambush/counter attack/whatever, is dumb and is trying to fight harder, but definitely not smarter.
