I put it that way since if they have hostages who potentially have sensitive information and the only land passage into a large area where several weapons are stored is taken, effectively capturing the weapons, then I would say that definitely would be 'compromised'. Not saying they have the bomb all set up ready to blow, no, just that the security posture has been affected enough that it could be considered a very serious breach. Also the fact that this was an attack on the very heart of the military it also shows the overall vulnerability of the protection systems. Most important of all currently available facts is that this is far from over. |
