"We have resources both in Elbil and Sulaimaniyah Province," Lemont said. "I can mobilize the local intelligence network to monitor all large storage facilities and transport convoys. If the equipment is really going to be smuggled across the border, I can locate it quickly."
"Don't alert the enemy," Robin warned. "After locating, just have your agents continue to monitor, without taking any action. We need to make Song Heping believe that his hiding place is safe."
Lemont understood this logic: "Wait until he starts the transfer, then we take action?"
"During his transfer process," Robin said precisely. "Either at the Iraq-Turkey border or on the transport routes in the Siria Desert. At that time, the equipment is in a legal 'ownerless state,' neither under US Army control nor officially transferred to any government. We can intercept it under the pretext of 'preventing weapons proliferation.'
Lemont felt a chill.
This plan is not only meticulous but almost legally perfect.
