The global focus is reminiscent of when U.S. forces first went after al-Qaeda in the months after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. As approaching U.S. troops forced militants to flee their safe havens in Afghanistan and scatter across the globe, the United States followed in pursuit, using CIA assets to grab suspected al-Qaeda operatives in dozens of countries, sometimes capturing and imprisoning them under murky legal authorities and using interrogation techniques widely seen as torture
JSOC has further built strong ties with police agencies in Germany, Britain, France and Turkey over the past decade, as they have engaged in alleged efforts to counter the flow of foreign terrorists returning to their home countries after being allowed to slip into Syria and Iraq to engage in foreign-backed armed militancy to destabilize local governments.
“The new JSOC task force could also offer intelligence, strike recommendations and advice to the militaries and security forces of traditional Western allies, or conduct joint operations,” the report said. “JSOC could act unilaterally.”
