What i don't understand is why so much trouble? if they know where they are, and how they come in, why not set up ambushes ourselves? i would like to know the reason behind that

Its a very large area that we are talking about and it is difficult terrain to work in and barring a massive build up of troops - there just isn't going to be enough boots on the ground to make that happen. Believe me - the US military is very adapt at dealing with this environment and can work very effectively. Any results that fall short of ideal expectations are more limited by political limitations than military capabilities.
