So we need a "third force" to fill the gap... and of course this force would have no rules of engagement (or at least nothing lijke those of ISAF).
Mike if we are on the same page we can pursue this line of thinking.
We have discussed use of irregular forces and various pseudo-ops, primarily in the legal and ROE area - Is it time for psuedo operations in A-Stan?... (typo in the thread title).
You might want to glance through that thread and see what "same pages" exist. If you are talking about using "warlord armies" (i.e., as some of the Northern Alliance groups were used by our special ops folks in 2001-2002 to wage unconventional warfare in its true sense), similar concepts apply.
Fascinating area, really, since you can dream up your own mythological forces and ROEs (getting around the fact that real ROEs are classified, and special ops ROEs even more so).
The "pseudo-ops" thread would seem a more specific place to discuss use of irregular forces in unconventional warfare.
