Brigadier Gavin Bulloch (British Army, Ret.), goes even further and suggests that, "Commanders should seek 'soft' methods of destroying the enemy; by arrest, physical isolation, or subversion, for example. The use of the minimum necessary force is a well-proven counterinsurgency lesson."(12) In other words, while engaging in OOTW [Operations Other Than War], military personnel may increasingly find themselves engaging what appear to be "law enforcement duties" -- actually, in furtherance of larger counterinsurgency goals.[2]
