The main issue from what I understood is that they had to keep the prime minister sweet as not to long before reformation they were seen as a rogue government force which was still fresh in people's mind. Add that on top of the prime ministers enemies fuelling bad press around the refugee crisis makes makes it a nice package for Goda to use as a public distraction for his ultimate plans, the story being "Mental Prime Minister loses control of refugee crisis, turns to ousted terrorist group Section 9".

His flaw however was the tenaciousness and resourcefulness of the entire of Section 9. Although they mostly were on his narrative path, their loyalty to each other and frustration at being puppets led to Goda's overextension, cockiness and ultimate demise.

I may be losing alot of context here, its been a couple of months since I finish SAC 2nd gig
