The offensive against Al-Shabaab in Central Somalia

Why could not they [ FGS & other FMSs] replicate PL strategy in fighting Da'ish / al Shabab? Surely that is a winning formula, no?
pl is fighting 500 people hiding in the mountains, fgs is fighting a group that has infiltrated every level of the government, police, sna and has their own revenue stream/funding, many thousands of armed militants with heavy weapons that control and manage their own territory and have 3 decades of experience in guerrilla warfare.

you can see why both require different strategies
