I'll certainly agree that a few well trained and equiped operators can hold their own against larger, less trained and/or less well equipped groups! However, consider this very likely post SHTF scenario. A group of several family units of somewhat trained and practiced folks against a group of 40 or so well armed, hungry Hell's Angels, many former military and most veterans of the worst prisons! They are the purist form of human (?) preadotors now, what will they be like in that world when driven by starvation? I mentioned Somalia because these types of groups rule the land, taking what the want, when they want, leaving death, destruction, rape, torture and maiming in their wake. I just don't think that most folks are mentally prepared for what they will face if indeed WORL occurs. I pray we don't find out!
Scumbags like that will seek other, weaker prey if you terminate a few of them.
You've mentioned Samolia, but that is not the best example. These warlords mostly terrorise unarmed and untrained population. There are better examples in Africa. Examples of South African mercenaries taking back oil facilities and shipping routes from so called rebels. We're talking about a handfull of men with special forces background beating battalion strength adverseries. They did it by being smart, stealthy, prepared and efficient.
