"That would put them into a situation requiring a protracted and vulnerable logistics "tail."(ExSoldier)

Not if they are suicidal and in large numbers, say 500 to a squad, all willing to die in the operation. They come in heavy and attack hard until they are overwhelmed. I'd say if a 500 man squad overtook my town, there would be much chaos before order was restored.

The logistics tail of AQ has been laying up supplies here for a decade atleast. A suicidal soldier does not need re-supply either, he just goes out with what he's got on him and does his damage.

Just some thoughts on the fifth column that's here already. I'm ready for them.

500 guys isn't a squad....it's a battalion. 500 ME all together in an aggressive acting group is on a guaranteed suicide mission, before they reach their targets. Even in a high gun control area like DC or Boston, the Boyz in da Hood would cut 'em to pieces!
