I'm not sure what the fuss is about. If you read the beginning of the
section, excerpted below, you will find that it is a description of the
enemy's organization and strategy. It reads like standard Warsaw Pact
doctrine.
HOW THE ENEMY DEFENDS
This section describes why and where the enemy defends and examines
those aspects of his defense that are different from our own. It covers
the organization, planning, and conduct of the defense to include his
use of the combined arms in the defense. The enemy recognizes the
political and military importance of the urbanization phenomenon. Threat
commanders realize the importance of not only defending built-up areas,
but also of incorporating them into the overall defensive plan. The
enemy always attempts to establish his defense well forward of an urban
area in order to engage and defeat the attacker on the approaches to and
flanks of the built-up area.
