This entire time Mason had not been able to prove the Benin Army innocent, but he also wasn't able to prove them guilty. Increasingly things did not add up, but they did in a way where there was a small chance that the Benin Army was responsible. If the animalists had dressed as Muslims and attacked last night, to do a second, larger War Crime... That would make sense.... But if it was possible for Chad National Army soldiers to dress as other Chad National Army soldiers...What about people who were not the army or even Chad?
Come to think of it, weren't their uniforms very similar? The attacking soldiers didn't have shades, but they did have narcotics that were typically only common in the Middle East.... Among Jihadists.... The GIN.... They had just recently pulled out of the area that the attack came from, and they had recently left the area attacked. In fact, they gave up a lot of ground and THEN there was a major counterattack against them....but not before.... In fact, it had been days since they counterattacked or did anything.....
The rumors he was hearing and was getting from informants indicated that the GIN just pulled up and left.... Without much warning...... Some of the locals also spotted strange trucks driving during the night and some men, perhaps part of the attacking force, moving into the brush. It seemed the locals had seem a portion of the attack that Mason and the Rangers had intercepted...
He couldn't be entirely sure that the GIN was responsible, again... This could just be rogue Chad Army units....
Though, there was one thing that was troubling..... The Chad regime was cozying up more and more to the Arab Coalition, likely because they were just another oppressive dictatorship among them all... This was troubling. The Chad National Army had worn itself down resisting jihadists in three nations, if it wasn't so damn oppressive and sloppy, it would be a suitable NAU ally.
