That’s for sure and good advice.Might be good to verify the story before spreading a rumor. Can't really trust any news source these days.
Finesse is in the eye of the finesser............

To a degree. Thankfully, such finesse is called statecraft and there is a wide body of history, philosophy, and literature our leaders could draw from to guide them.
There is no perfect guide to these things, but brute force is rarely the best way.
Brute force has its advantages but it is all about intelligence and planning. Sometimes a quick operation like the infiltration of Osama bin Laden is the best method. But that took months of planning and spying. In my opinion, they need to be putting undercover agents in, block off supply, wiretap phones in order to gain intelligence, find the leaders, begin media control as promoting the true narrative, study the map of the area and locate strategically weak areas, sniper positions, armories, barracks, food supply, etc. Give them a ultimatum that whoever is left inside at the end of a month will be seen as a threat. Choke off supply delivery, have an undercover agent set fire to supplies, continue to train and contain intelligence with a trained professional to open dialogue with the group. Then as time comes begin to show a increase in power. Tanks, helicopters, troops, snipers, etc. Hoping they will back down. If not then after a day or two begin the operation at 2:00 a.m. Night vision optics and masks. Thermal optics including drone surveillance. Make a example of the situation that any terrorism will not be tolerated.Dunno............. God seemed to prefer brute force when folks got too rebellious .............. Sodom and Goneforevera are clear examples
You are as solid goldlol, It's not a new thing at all. I remember my parents talking about the news telling lies in the old days about the events taking place and my grandparents agreeing and telling the things the news lied about the mid to late 1800's.
You are as solid gold
