The author argues for the most part, the conventional war fighting forces of the USA are not the best military forces to deal with such situations where there is a lack of a clearly defined enemy and a need for persuasion, negotiation and a community leadership alongside elements who are willing to resort to deadly force. The special operation forces (SOF) examines the composition of the SOF and the varying roles, discussing their evolution, strengths and weakness.
