The defeated ppp is leading a bloody insurgency campaign across Guyana on all fronts: business, crime/violence, arson, sabotage and fraud.
The persons at the helm of the police force once pledged allegiance to the ppp. With that in mind, it would be testing the bounds of sanity to fully believe seelall persaud, balwant, hickens and the rest will truly take the fight to their former benefactors.
or maybe it is me who crazee
might be time for khemraj to dust off his david galula notes on counter insurgency
1. Concentrate enough armed forces to destroy or to expel the main body of armed insurgents.
2. Detach for the area sufficient troops to oppose an insurgent’s comeback in strength, install these troops in the hamlets, villages, and towns where the population lives.
3. Establish contact with the population, control its movements in order to cut off its links with the guerrillas.
4. Destroy the local insurgent political organization.
5. Set up, by means of elections, new provisional local authorities.
6. Test those authorities by assigning them various concrete tasks. Replace the softs and the incompetents, give full support to the active leaders. Organize self-defense units.
7. Group and educate the leaders in a national political movement.
8. Win over or suppress the last insurgent remnants.
