Perhaps it was a mixture of both? Greed and Fedeyeen. Attack a convoy loaded with money. Maybe even get lucky and score a few bags of greenbacks (or whatever color Dinars are) that don't get burned up or destroyed during the assualt?

Either way, I agree that the money was the purpose of the upgraded nature of the ambush.

I'm mulling over at least five bunny trails.. this whole scenario is just bizarre, and I'm about to ascribe it to psyops.
