You don't know how independent fighting cells operate, either
Yes I do. I am a 20 year military retiree. Independent small unit operation has been US military policy for years.
Why do you think the Al-Q's clandestinely send some of their people into our military for training?
What's your point? Having al-Qaeda members training in the U.S. military supports exactly what I've been saying. They don't need a "state sponser" in the Middle East anymore.
