Sinister and all,
Sorry for the lack of clarity. I was not as it seemed in my post, saying that the governing directive for SOCOM falls under Title 22, but rather that the training mission carried out by SOF (Title 10 forces) is regulated by the Embassy (title 22). While Title 10 section 167 and 2011 are the governing directive for SOF training with foreign countries, both dictate that the primary purpose must be to train US assets. When the primary intent of the training is for the foriegn force, the pot of money is different and the forces are then regulated under Title 22. Even during the conduct of JCETs the Embassy is almost always involved and maintains some degree of control. The mission that the USMC will undertake will not be subjected to the same. They idea is that they will be able to maintain autonomy from the Embassy as a title 10 FMTU. This may require law changes, no one knows just yet, but it will not necessarily slide in as TSC and it will NOT be FID.
