I talked with my son about this today- as a combat soldier he and his comrades cleared buildings in Iraq constantly- he doesn’t get it either. He said the only things that make sense to him are- there are a lot more terrorists inside than anyone knows and they’re all over the place- they’ve booby-trapped the place- or- they don’t have ehough manpower to do the job effectively.
It’s odd, isn’t it?
The fires are out of control.
My guess is that there are many guests still hiding in rooms. The terrorists are firing assault rifles that travel through walls. They apparently are moving slowly to keep gunfire to a minimum. We will no doubt find people shot hiding in closets and bathrooms by gun fire that came through a wall.
He is probably correct.
