The old adage, \u201c<em>The first casualty of war is truth<\/em>,\u201d no longer suffices to describe how we are attacked and misled by information weaponized as a weapon. As difficult as it may be to grasp, the goal of a hybrid war is not necessarily victory in a military confrontation. Strategically speaking, kinetic warfare is only one aspect of the \u201c<em>multi-domain battlespace<\/em>.\u201d In hybrid warfare, wars may not be fought to assert dominance or gain geopolitical advantages, but rather to achieve economic, technological, monetary, or other socio-technical objectives.<\/p>\n<p>Information manipulation is a hybrid weapon that goes beyond the usual war propaganda we may be familiar with. This hybrid weapon is carefully designed to achieve specific cognitive effects. This type of propaganda is not limited to simply mobilizing support for national war efforts. It also includes sowing confusion, deliberately causing fear and distress among one&#8217;s own population, and selectively reporting or omitting information to achieve multi-domain victories \u2013 even to the point of deliberately losing or appearing to lose military conflicts. All of these propaganda tools have been integrated into today&#8217;s \u201csuccessful\u201d strategies of hybrid warfare. Only by being fully aware of and vigilant against hybrid warfare can we begin to understand the propaganda narratives imposed upon us.<\/p>\n<p>If anything we are told about the comparable military capabilities of nation-states worldwide is true, then it is militarily impossible for the US to wage war against Iran in the manner described, despite the vast number of media reports claiming otherwise. Current military technology should make it impossible for the US to block the exit from the Strait of Hormuz \u2013 unless there is a certain degree of agreement.<\/p>\n<p>There are two possible explanations for why the reporting contradicts reality. The first is that all governments of all countries are working together to conceal the truth about current military technology, making the reports simply a collective fabrication. The second is that the so-called Israeli-American war against Iran is, to some extent, a hoax. Since it seems highly improbable that all governments are \u201cin cahoots,\u201d the latter possibility appears most likely.<\/p>\n<p>If this is the case, it logically presupposes a certain degree of international coordination between the alleged warring parties. This does not mean that they have the same purpose, or that there is no competition for resources or geopolitical advantages. Recall our earlier analogy to a corporate mission statement.<\/p>\n<p>There are many elements of this war that suggest it is merely a charade. As we will soon see, some of the proposed operational plans, particularly those proposed by the US, are ludicrous. Perhaps most striking is that the likely outcome has been planned for at least a generation.<\/p>\n<p>However, it should be considered that mentioning the possibility of a theatrical war staging is not intended to downplay the struggle of people oppressed by their governments or the suffering of families who lose their relatives in the course of this staging.<\/p>\n<p>If we believe the official narrative presented by various state propagandists, then this means that at the time of writing, a fragile ceasefire is in place while Pakistan hosts preliminary negotiations. There is little reason to believe any of this, but that is supposedly the situation.<\/p>\n<p>Much has been said about the relative hypersonic weapons capabilities of nation-states. A look at recorded history shows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The Russian military first demonstrated the capabilities of hypersonic boost glide warheads in 2018.<\/li>\n<li>China first unveiled its DF-17 hypersonic missile to the world in 2019.<\/li>\n<li>Iran first showcased its hypersonic attack capability in the summer of 2023.<\/li>\n<li>India followed next in 2024.<\/li>\n<li>Allegedly, the USA has not yet fully developed hypersonic missile technology or the ability to defend its facilities against hypersonic attacks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>While countries like India, which apparently had a technological head start, are already able to successfully test hypersonic weapons against targets from both sea- and land-based systems, the US lags behind. US hypersonic missile systems like Dark Eagle are still \u201c<em>under development<\/em>.\u201d It wasn&#8217;t until March 2026 that the US managed a \u201c<em>successful launch<\/em>\u201d \u2013 albeit without hitting a target. These systems are supposedly going to be operational \u201c<em>soon<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-241794\" src=\"https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/missile2.avif\" alt=\"\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/missile2.avif 1440w, https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/missile2-300x169.avif 300w, https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/missile2-1024x576.avif 1024w, https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/missile2-768x432.avif 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 560px) 100vw, 560px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Reports that Iran used hypersonic missiles to attack Israeli nuclear facilities in Dimona appear credible. Iran also claims to have used its Fattah-2 hypersonic missiles to disable US THAAD (Terminal High Altitude Area Defense) facilities. We will return to this point shortly.<\/p>\n<p>Iran&#8217;s likely possession of hypersonic weapons means that the US aircraft carrier groups stationed off the coast of Oman could be sunk by Iranian forces. This, of course, assumes that everything we are told about hypersonic technology is true.<\/p>\n<p>In the swamp of war propaganda, it&#8217;s difficult to uncover the truth. But if the technology exists, Iran likely does possess hypersonic capabilities. Even staunchly anti-Iranian Deep State think tanks, such as the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD), have reluctantly admitted that the Iranian government possesses hypersonic weapons.<\/p>\n<p>As mentioned above, the US is reportedly developing the same offensive hypersonic weapons technology. But protecting the military <em>from<\/em> these weapons is another matter. When China unveiled its DF-17 hypersonic missile in 2019, US Air Force Lieutenant General Samuel Greaves responded by stating that the US needed \u201c<em>birth-to-death tracking<\/em>\u201d to protect its facilities, such as aircraft carriers, from hypersonic missiles.<\/p>\n<p>Tracking hypersonic missiles from launch to interception relies on the use of space-based satellite systems such as the planned Hypersonic and Ballistic Tracking Space Sensor (HBTSS). Such space-based systems are central to the Trump administration&#8217;s \u201c<em>Golden Dome<\/em>\u201d defence concept against hypersonic threats. Just over a year ago, Trump issued an executive order to compel U.S. defence contractors to proceed with the construction of his \u201c<em>Golden Dome<\/em>\u201d \u2013 originally called the \u201c<em>Iron Dome<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Once again, the Praxians are the primary beneficiaries of yet another US pledge of defence spending. On March 24, <em>The Wall Street Journal<\/em> ran an \u201cexclusive\u201d to inform the world that Anduril and Palantir were accelerating the development of the <em>Golden Dome<\/em> software \u2013 at the expense of U.S. taxpayers and as a $185 million cash injection for the Praxians. Although Musk\u2019s SpaceX secured a $2 billion contract to launch <em>Golden Dome<\/em> hardware into space in October 2025, not a single <em>Golden Dome<\/em> satellite has been launched to date. With the total cost to U.S. taxpayers estimated at around $1.2 trillion, maintaining the rhetoric of threat is essential for the Praxians and their oligarchic partners to capitalize on this immense opportunity. However, the <em>Golden Dome<\/em> does not currently exist.<\/p>\n<p>Joe Lonsdale, co-founder of Palantir, is heavily promoting the \u201c<em>Golden Dome<\/em>\u201d system on <em>Fox Business.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&lt;p align=&#8221;center&#8221;&gt;&lt;iframe class=&#8221;fitvidsignore&#8221; width=&#8221;560&#8243; height=&#8221;315&#8243; src=&#8221;https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZvAGMSfTEo8?si=9MUWzTcAc9V9xgis&#8221; title=&#8221;YouTube video player&#8221; frameborder=&#8221;0&#8243; allow=&#8221;accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share&#8221; referrerpolicy=&#8221;strict-origin-when-cross-origin&#8221; allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;\/iframe&gt;&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n<p>US carrier strike groups utilize a multi-layered defence network to detect and, hopefully, intercept missiles before they reach their target. In the hypersonic age, the Aegis missile defence system (BMD) and THAAD are the US military&#8217;s primary defences. Aegis is not currently linked to a \u201c<em>birth-to-death<\/em>\u201d tracking system of the \u201c<em>Golden Dome<\/em>\u201d type, such as the planned HBTSS.<\/p>\n<p>The US regional THAAD defence systems in the Middle East were reportedly disabled almost immediately after the start of the war, either by Iranian drone swarms or Iranian hypersonic missiles. US officials refused to deny that the AN\/TPY-2 long-range X-band tracking systems necessary for THAAD\u2019s operation were destroyed in Jordan and likely also in the United Arab Emirates.<\/p>\n<p>In November 2025, <em>Air &amp; Space Magazine<\/em> (<em>ASM<\/em>) reported on the current status of the \u201c<em>Golden Dome<\/em>\u201d development. It stated that the threat landscape had changed due to \u201c<em>hypersonic missiles, massive cruise missiles, and UAV [Unmanned Aerial Vehicle \u2013 drone] volleys and UAV swarms<\/em>,\u201d which \u201c<em>significantly complicate the creation of an effective defensive shield<\/em>.\u201d So difficult, in fact, that US defence analysts even conceded that 2028 was a realistic target for \u201c<em>developing the basic infrastructure<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>ASM added:<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>The US lacks a cost-effective interceptor capability to defend against large salvos or swarms of missiles in a small geographic area. Currently, there is no operational long-wave infrared (LWIR) tracking system (heat signature detection) to differentiate targets in the mid-flight phase. The US currently lacks space-based interceptor missiles for launch or early mid-flight interception (against hypersonic missiles), nor the capability to rapidly engage hardened targets immediately before launch.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As reported by the defence industry publication <em>Military Machine<\/em> in January 2026:<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>Given the hypersonic missiles currently being developed by several nations, the [defence] challenge is significantly intensifying. [\u2026&#8230;.] The US Navy is developing countermeasures, including improved sensors, new missile variants, and potentially directed-energy weapons that could be deployed at the speed of light.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>Are under development<\/em>\u201d and \u201c<em>could<\/em>\u201d are the key terms here. As far as is known, the US is not capable of reliably protecting huge floating airports \u2013 aircraft carriers \u2013 from hypersonic missiles.<\/p>\n<p>The US is currently reportedly blocking the entry and exit of ships from Iranian ports by stationing its aircraft carrier strike groups in the Arabian Sea at the eastern end of the Strait of Hormuz. How is this undertaking militarily feasible?<\/p>\n<p>The stated range of the Iranian Fattah-2 hypersonic missile is 1,400 km. Both the <em>USS Abraham Lincoln<\/em> and the <em>USS Gerald R. Ford<\/em> were therefore well within the range of the Iranian hypersonic missiles. Nevertheless, the Iranian government, supposedly fighting for its survival, apparently allowed US bombing raids to be carried out from these nuclear-powered aircraft carriers for weeks without firing a single hypersonic missile at either of them \u2013 although this is disputed \u2013 and apparently is not undertaking or even threatening any military hypersonic actions to end the US blockade of its ports.<\/p>\n<p>On March 25, the Iranian military press office claimed that Iran had struck the <em>USS Abraham Lincoln<\/em> with cruise missiles \u2013 a claim that was, of course, denied by US commanders. But this denial only raises more questions: Why didn&#8217;t Iran use its obvious offensive capabilities against these important US targets?<\/p>\n<p>Despite all the public boasting by US politicians, there are significant military limitations to the power the US projects in the Middle East. For example, Trump \u201c<em>threatened<\/em>\u201d to seize Kharg Island, but the US did not follow through. Kharg Island is located in the northern Persian Gulf, about 20 miles off the Iranian coast. It is less than eight square miles in size, inhabited by about 20,000 oil workers, and defended by a fairly standard contingent of Iranian troops and defence systems.<\/p>\n<p>Kharg Island serves as an oil processing facility for Iranian oil exporters. According to US \u201c<em>strategic<\/em>\u201d thinking, capturing Kharg Island would seriously disrupt the Iranian economy and make the war prohibitively expensive from an Iranian perspective.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_241791\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-241791\" style=\"width: 560px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-241791\" src=\"https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/khargisland3.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"560\" height=\"346\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/khargisland3.webp 768w, https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/khargisland3-300x186.webp 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 560px) 100vw, 560px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-241791\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The oil terminal on the Iranian island of Kharg in 2017<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>And yet, capturing Kharg is something the US currently cannot accomplish. Why not?<\/p>\n<p><em>The Atlantic<\/em>, a NATO-affiliated magazine, reported that as of March 21, it was \u201c<em>still too dangerous for US warships to enter the Persian Gulf<\/em>\u201d due to the threat of Iranian cruise missiles and drone swarms. For this reason, an invasion of Kharg Island was considered militarily unfeasible.<\/p>\n<p>Strangely enough, just a few weeks later, it apparently wasn&#8217;t \u201c<em>too dangerous<\/em>\u201d for the US Navy to cruise directly off the Iranian coast and block the Strait of Hormuz from the touted \u201c<em>security<\/em>\u201d of the Gulf of Oman. This can&#8217;t be true, since the Iranians possess hypersonic missiles. Or at least, from a military-technological perspective, it certainly doesn&#8217;t make sense.<\/p>\n<p>But the end of April, the alleged US plan to seize Kharg Island appears to have been abandoned \u2013 presumably because it remains \u201c<em>too dangerous<\/em>.\u201d Meanwhile, satellite images show Iranian supertankers refuelling on Kharg Island. The Western press claims that Iran is using its tankers as floating storage facilities. However, contrary to this portrayal, some Iranian tankers are being \u201c<em>allowed<\/em>\u201d through the US blockade \u2013 but apparently only if they deliver millions of barrels of oil to China and receive permission from multinational insurance companies to continue their voyage.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps the whole hype surrounding hypersonic missiles is just a myth, fabricated to justify immense defence spending on gigantic military prestige projects like \u201c<em>Golden Dome<\/em>.\u201d But if that&#8217;s not the case, the war against Iran doesn&#8217;t seem to be a \u201cwar\u201d in the conventional sense. There&#8217;s a distinct possibility that the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is essentially nothing more than a massive theatrical SCAD (state crime against democracy).<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Israeli-American Non-War with Iran: Troop deployment<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In a speech before the Arab Centre in Washington (ACW) \u2013 a Qatar-funded political think tank \u2013 on April 10, Professor John J. Mearsheimer made some pointed comments on the deployment of U.S. forces in what we might call the U.S. \u201cnon-war\u201d with Iran. We should, of course, consider the well-known bias of both Mearsheimer and his ACW audience toward the Israeli government. Nevertheless, his comments on the U.S. troop deployment proposal were supported by evidence.<\/p>\n<p>Mearsheimer told the ACW:<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>We cannot send the [US] Navy anywhere near Iran \u2013 especially not near the Strait of Hormuz \u2013 for fear that it will be sunk either by Iranian cruise missiles or Iranian drones. We had 13 bases in the region \u2013 13 major bases in the region. The New York Times has reported that all 13 of those bases are either severely damaged or destroyed.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We have just been discussing the supposed reality of hypersonic warfare, which makes the suggestion of sending US aircraft carriers \u201c<em>somewhere near<\/em>\u201d the Iranian coast seem ludicrous. We will soon turn to the further military implications of Iranian drone swarms.<\/p>\n<p><em>The New York Times<\/em>, which can hardly be described as an anti-American news outlet, did indeed report on the extensive damage to US military bases caused by Iranian defence installations. This damage was denied by the Trump administration, but reports about the extent of US tactical losses persist in the US media.<\/p>\n<p>The exact composition of US forces stationed in the Middle East is understandably a military secret. However, estimates suggest that of the 40,000 to 50,000 US troops stationed in the Middle East prior to February 2026, a plausible average number for US ground troops was in the range of 20,000 to 25,000, distributed across the region.<\/p>\n<p>Mearsheimer continued:<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>To wage a ground war against Iran, President Trump recently deployed 7,000 combat troops to the region. [\u2026&#8230;.] With an additional 7,000 combat troops, you can hardly accomplish anything. And if I were to walk you through all the scenarios, you would see that it is impossible to achieve any military victory with such a small number of ground troops.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Reports indicate that Trump has instructed the Pentagon to consider sending an additional 10,000 US troops to the Middle East to reinforce \u201c<em>Operation Epic Fury<\/em>.\u201d We have heard him threaten to \u201c<em>bomb Iran back to the Stone Age<\/em>,\u201d rendering it defenceless. Western propaganda outlets are suggesting the possibility of a subsequent US ground invasion of Iran, discussing troop buildups and ground operations intended to achieve US military objectives.<\/p>\n<p>The Iranian military is stationed almost exclusively on Iranian territory, a country with extremely hostile terrain for any advancing army. The Iranian armed forces are well-equipped and well-trained to defend Iran against any aggressors. The Iranian ground forces consist of the Army of the Islamic Republic of Iran (ARTesh), the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), and the Basij resistance force. In total, Iran can muster between 545,000 and 610,000 active regular soldiers, as well as an additional 350,000 reservists (the Basij). This strength of Iranian ground forces dwarfs any potential regional troop deployment by the United States.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless of what motives his critics may attribute to him, Mearsheimer seems to be right once again. The idea that more than 30,000 or even more than 50,000 US soldiers could conduct a successful ground offensive in Iran seems so far-fetched that it hardly seems worth believing. Unless the US government intends to deploy the entire US military to the Middle East, a ground invasion of Iran is not even remotely a realistic prospect.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-241800\" src=\"https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ground-war-iran.avif\" alt=\"\" width=\"560\" height=\"372\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ground-war-iran.avif 1440w, https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ground-war-iran-300x199.avif 300w, https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ground-war-iran-1024x681.avif 1024w, https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ground-war-iran-768x510.avif 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 560px) 100vw, 560px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The real question raised by this unfounded militaristic hubris of the US is why other governments are going along with it. Perhaps one can understand why the traditional US allies are silent. And certainly, Israel&#8217;s motivation for maintaining this narrative is clear enough. But why aren&#8217;t the BRICS nations pointing out the absurdity of it all? Why are they collectively allowing the US administration to act out its grandiose delusions on the world stage without indicating that the whole situation is a hoax? Why are they allowing the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz to continue?<\/p>\n<p>We need to reiterate: Highlighting that the war against Iran is almost certainly a state crime against democracy (SCAD) does not mean ignoring the horrific death and destruction it is causing. Countless people are suffering, losing their homes, families, access to life-saving services and supplies, not to mention limbs and lives, as a result of SCADs.<\/p>\n<p>So far, the US military intervention against Iran, aside from the killing of many innocent people, has resulted in a conflagration spreading across the Middle East, alienating many of America&#8217;s regional allies. It has also triggered a global energy crisis and all the repercussions that such a crisis entails. However, as far as the military or political defeat of Iran is concerned, this SCAD appears to have achieved nothing. Quite the contrary.<\/p>\n<p>The Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a US oligarch-led think tank on war strategy, recently stated \u2013 and this is important \u2013 that:<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>A massive air campaign by the US and Israel failed to break Iran&#8217;s will or ability to exert power in the Gulf, and Iran transformed formerly safe neighbouring states into war zones overnight.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There is one further achievement we can attribute to the US attack on Iran. In light of the impending MWO (Multipolar World Order), in which hybrid warfare will replace large-scale international military conflicts, the SCAD in Iran has completely changed the economics of conventional warfare.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The end of conventional warfare<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Israeli-American \u201cnon-war\u201d with Iran, as it stands, is a hybrid war. Not only have economics, foreign policy, and access to energy been weaponized, but the effects of the military confrontation are multifaceted. As the ECB, the IMF, the UN, and many other representatives of the global functional oligarchy emphasize, this \u201cwar\u201d will change everything \u2013 from global supply chains and energy and food security to transnational capital flows and the geopolitical world order. It has also irrevocably altered the nature of military confrontations.<\/p>\n<p>In Part 1, we established that the Praxian Alex Karp was right when he said the Ukraine war changed \u201c<em>how all wars are fought<\/em>.\u201d Providing high-tech, relatively inexpensive war toys like killer drones and AI targeting systems is precisely what the Praxians offer the US military-industrial complex as warfare becomes increasingly technology-driven and significantly cheaper. Praxian defence companies are booming like never before, due to the non-war SCAD with Iran.<\/p>\n<p>Although the US defence industry as a whole benefits from the SCAD in Iran, the significant increase in war profits is not reaching the country&#8217;s more traditional, heavy-weapon-specialized manufacturers to the same extent as it is reaching the Praxian arms companies. The Iran war is further shifting the nature of the conflict in favour of the Praxians and their companies and shareholders.<\/p>\n<p>The Saudi government&#8217;s media outlet, the <em>House of Saud<\/em>, highlights how the Iranian response has changed the economics of conventional warfare. If Iran&#8217;s <em>\u201c$20,000 Shahed drones<\/em>\u201d can only be shot down with \u201c<em>$4 million Patriot interceptor missiles<\/em>,\u201d then warfare with multi-billion-dollar aircraft carriers and exorbitantly expensive missile defence systems seems like an overpriced flop, not to mention the costly strategy.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>House of Saud<\/em> reports that the much-lauded THAAD system forms the backbone of the US&#8217;s multi-billion-dollar defence capabilities in the Middle East. Countries throughout the region previously relied on US defence systems and their military protection, but this dependence has now made them targets.<\/p>\n<p>The Saudi media outlet adds that \u201c<em>Iran attacked THAAD radar stations at bases in Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar<\/em>\u201d with swarms of \u201c<em>$20,000<\/em>\u201d drones, rendering THAAD virtually unusable. This report contradicts Iran\u2019s claim that hypersonic missiles were used. Nevertheless, the crucial point is that US aircraft carriers cannot possibly defend themselves without THAAD. A blockade of the Strait of Hormuz by US carrier strike groups could easily be repelled if desired by the US\u2019s alleged \u201c<em>enemies<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If the strategy lies in continuing to wage wars \u2013 and that is clearly the case \u2013 then the Saudi Arabian government is looking to China, not the US, for its current and future defence contracts and partnerships. For example, China&#8217;s $5 billion investment in Saudi Arabia to build the Wing Loong-3 unmanned combat aircraft from Chengdu to Jeddah suddenly appears perfectly timed and forward-looking. The Saudi government emphasizes:<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>The significance of the deal lies not in the drone itself, but in its production model. By establishing an assembly line in Jeddah, instead of importing finished platforms from China, Saudi Arabia achieves three goals at once. It secures domestic production capacity that cannot be disrupted by foreign policy disputes or supply chain disruptions. It advances the Kingdom&#8217;s \u2018Vision 2030\u2019 goal of covering 50 percent of its military spending domestically by 2030.

Above all, however, it benefits transnational capitalist oligarchs.<\/p>\n<p>To illustrate: Chengdu Aircraft Corporation (CAC) is a subsidiary of Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC), which is reportedly a \u201c<em>state-owned<\/em>,\u201d Beijing-based, publicly traded defence contractor. The leading \u201c<em>private<\/em>\u201d investment firm backing AVIC is China Asset Management Co., Ltd. (ChinaAMC). Originally based in Hong Kong, ChinaAMC currently manages $0.5 trillion in assets. Among ChinaAMC\u2019s leading investors is Canada-based Mackenzie Investments, a subsidiary of the Canadian financial services company IGM Financial Inc. IGM is largely controlled by the Power Corporation of Canada, which is dominated by the Desmarais oligarchic dynasty. Undoubtedly, many of IGM\u2019s other leading oligarchic shareholders are represented by BlackRock and Vanguard.<\/p>\n<p>An international turn toward China&#8217;s MCF-based defence industry is fine by the Western branch of the transnational oligarchic investment network. If this accelerates the high-tech change of the US defence industry, all the better. Transnational capitalist investors have reason to be optimistic about the prospects of the Chinese defence sector, given that China has taken the concept of all-encompassing \u201c<em>unrestricted warfare<\/em>\u201d quite literally.<\/p>\n<p>Having supported the development of hybrid warfare in China, NATO-aligned governments are now using the fictitious Chinese bogeyman, which they and their propagandists helped create, to justify the introduction of all aspects of hybrid warfare. As we know, hybrid warfare is a war waged by governments against their own civilian populations. Its multi-domain battlefields are both international and domestic.<\/p>\n<p>Hybrid warriors target their own populations. They get away with it because most people don&#8217;t realize that governmental systems are not \u2013 and never have been \u2013 what they claim to be: representative democracies, unified communist republics, federal democracies, constitutional republics, or constitutional monarchies. Instead, almost all governments are \u2013 and always have been \u2013 functioning oligarchies. Hybrid warfare serves to protect oligarchies and their influence. Governments are not in charge. Oligarchies are.<\/p>\n<p>Governments exist to advance oligarch-led political programs designed to achieve the oligarchs&#8217; goals. The collective objective of the global oligarchy is to establish a worldwide network of \u201csmart city-states\u201d within a multipolar world order: a global governmental regime connected by the patchwork of network empires (agentic states) of the Praxian Empire.<\/p>\n<p><em>Author: Iain Davis<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>yogaesoteric<br \/>\nJuly 31, 2026<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Involuntarily, and perhaps even unknowingly, we have been drawn into an international hybrid war.
