I’m certainly no expert on what took place, but it seems to me that those compounds would have served as barracks as well as meeting places. It would seem to me that you could catch a sizable number of people in one place if they were sleeping on site.

I think the guest is trying to address what he sees as a valid point, one that we would agree with if he is right. I’m just not convinced he is.

I don’t know, I feel that since airstrikes are such an old tactic, members of ISIS may very well have gotten into tunnels and underground shelters like the Vietcong did.

In a traditional warfare situation yes they would be. However, in the current 4th generation warfare they operate mostly at night under cover of darkness for their planting of roadside bombs, sabotage, etc. So in context, what would have been there at night most likely was their family, etc. and not the actual ones it is claimed he’s targeting.
