The regime used this group for 3 main reasons. 1. Carry out crimes to blame on the actual resistance groups (so they could clamp down on them harder) 2. Identify political enemies that could later be arrested. 3. Control the opposition (by running them)

Does any of this sound familiar to modern “resistance” groups? Think about it. Think about what has happened recently. “Stir up the water, to catch the fish”
