You wouldn’t pack a SEAL platoon into an Amtrack and use them to storm a defensive position. But the nationbuilders and COIN boys are sure that SOF forces can do anything, anywhere, and can always easily substitute for conventional ground forces.
It simply isnt true.
You give the treacherous bastards too much credit. The regime sent those Seals out in a very vulnerable transport so they could be assassinated and prevent them ever speaking of the treachery of the lying regime. Period.
