Synchronization across the theater should provide a greater opportunity for the generation of collective effects across all LoO, but is not currently achieved.

The lack of prioritization makes synchronization exceptionally difficult. The current assessment provides a broad measure of progress that requires substantial interpretation to determine interrelationships among the various aspects within the LoO.

The current campaign design does not utilize decisive points or milestones within the broad effects; accordingly, it is difficult to assess progress along a LoO. This does not assist the Commander in evaluating where changes in strategy or main effort may be required.

Counternarcotics CN. It is clear that CN efforts were not fully integrated into the counterinsurgency campaign; efforts were collaborative but not centrally coordinated. Substantial intelligence points directly at the Afghanistan narcotics industry as a significant economic enabler for the insurgency. The RCs are currently developing supporting plans to address the opium poppy season.

Though CN efforts are improving, they must be fully integrated into the overall plan. Partnering continues to evolve. It took until Nov to develop the framework for the plan and issue the fragmentary order4 FRAGO directing this effort. The FRAGO sought to create a baseline for both partnering operations and reporting requirements; RCs continue to progress toward the objectives described in the FRAGO, however they are hampered by the lack of clarity expressed in the operational design.

Operational Environment. Elements of the operational environment dictate the operational cycle of the insurgency. It is critical to consider the seasonal, agricultural, and narcotic cycles, as well as the religious calendar and external events like Pakistani military operations in the border area, in order to refine the campaign design.

Traditionally, insurgents have used the winter months to reorganize and prepare for the "fighting" season which coincides with improving weather.

Generally, ISAF forces have matched the insurgent's operational cycle each year.
