that's what happened in 2006 with the big push into cunard to build out the up all the outposts between the couple that had been built in 2003 and it happened in large part because the cia was encouraging the us military to expand its activity in kunar so it could do more intelligence collection in theory this could develop sources who could work across the board into adjacent areas in practice. that was kind of a hidden, not very well hidden always but a it in motivating factor in the launch of the counterinsurgency strategy and kunar in 2006 was this counterinsurgency in pursuit of counterterrorism aims approach so there have always been blended together in ways where sometimes they support each other and sometimes they really stepped on each other's toes that's not the only tension on the us or allied side. on the conventional side but conventional force, going out into the field and fighting, that mission is also in conjunction with efforts to advise afghan security forces i would say that tension as just as ben is great and there's just as much counterproductive activity in that ba
