I ask this because it would seem to be that in a war, SF would have to be prepared to pay first its Guerrilla movement behind enemy lines before training them?

Just because you pay an 'Army' does not mean they will be disloyal...depends upon the culture.
Montagnards in RVN were paid mercenaries by the USSF...they were loyal and fine soldiers.
Astan is a dif scenario and it depends upon what will improve the situation of the family/clan/tribe and not what is good or right or honorable in a western thought process.
If you lie, cheat, steal for the family/tribe you are being honorable and are not a cheap thief but a wise and crafty family member. The thief/traitor will get accolades and positive reinforcement for his deeds....like a gangbanger would.
