The Bahrain Obsession

In one of my earlier investigative reviews on the work of a contributor to the Miles Mathis website, we learnt that the entire coast of the Mediterranean holds special historical significance to the Phoenicians, and that the corrupt and ramshackle state of Lebanon is actually Phoenicia proper. I have recently extended this investigative review-analyses to explain War and Conflict in the Middle East, theorizing that present-day conflict in the Middle East is tied to the creation of a “Greater Phoenicia” in the same historical region.

What if the current escalation in the Persian Gulf is also tied to historical fault lines, stretching all the way back to antiquity? The earlier investigative analyses did hint that the Phoenicians originally came from Dilmon in the Persian Gulf. Now lets extrapolate.

Before we begin, note that a lot is being deliberately hidden from us, particularly regarding the origins of humankind. And there is a conspiracy, stretching back into antiquity, to keep things hidden. To keep humans perpetually confused about their origins. Because it is easier to overpower, cheat, steal, tax and deceive confused people. The same Phoenicians on it right now are the same ones who once hunted down and murdered Prophets to accomplish the same in earlier times.

According to Islamic canon, the first human(s) were created, in full perfection, in the heavens. They lived in some kind of Garden up there, before being banished to the Earth. That means they were not from earth, but merely placed here in a temporary arrangement.^[1]That may explain why most of earth remains uninhabitable and inhospitable to humans, and the human body experiences death after prolonged life on earth.

The Phoenicians would have us believe otherwise. And in the last two centuries, which coincides with their takeover and colonization of the world, their pseudo-scientists have imposed the myth that humans “evolved” from apes, who in turn evolved from less-complex life forms going all the way back to first amoeba (But where did that come from?). They have no answers as to what drove this “evolution.” A new, mysterious entity, now known as “Nature,” was selecting those with better-adapted survival traits, while discarding those without them. the implication is that the smarter creatures evolved while the rest went extinct. But then how does one explain why “stupid” animals such Manatees and Sunfish are still around? To provide evidence of “Evolution” happening on a micro-level, they pointed to variations within a species based on environmental factors, such as different finches having different types of beaks based on their feeding habits (which coincided with their different habitats). But that can be explained with Epigenetics, which theorizes that micro-evolution is already coded within a creature’s DNA, as opposed to the external environment changing DNA. The Phoenicians were implying that this “micro-evolution” was actually churning out new species in the long run. If that were the case, we would see skeletal remains of the “intermediate species” but all the Phoenicians have to show for that are hoaxes. They have still managed to convince the gullible that it would all neatly work out over a course of millions of years. In doing so, they have had to make insipid, maudlin conjecture about the age of the planet itself, and the appearance of the first humans as well. In my personal opinion, humans are not that old at all. 

The Creator who placed the first humans on earth, out of gentleness and consideration, would never place the first humans in the more desolate and uninhabitable parts of the earth. Instead, the Creator recreated a limited version of the Garden of Eden on earth itself, so that the first humans would not face an environmental shock. Was this a piece of the original Garden of Eden? A replica recreated using the elements of the earth? Or a hybrid? Nobody really knows. What we can assume is that it was very beautiful and habitable place, with abundance of food. 

As the first humans spread out from “Eden” towards lesser hospitable spaces, they had to be trained in farming for food, in following the stars, in marking time with seasons etc, and it seems the Creator arranged for that as well, through special entities that built specific sites for exactly such purpose. One such site has been uncovered in Turkey, which is clearly not the work of humans.^[2]There is a theory that Stonehenge is another such site. Now you know why they back-filled that site with dirt. Such sites usually had aquifers nearby, which supplied water with healing properties. This was critical for early humans without access to health remedies. One such aquifer with “healing water” was found in Egypt. But the Phoenicians have falsely attributed this immense structure to the much later Pharaohs. Another such site, complete with an aquifer of “healing water”^[3]Europeans have repeatedly tried to stir false alarm about the safety of water in this well (as if they really care) so that people avoid drinking it. is the site of the Kaaba in Mecca. Recall that Abraham was directed to that site. It pre-existed ages before him. 

Where would “Eden” be? Establishment historians point to Mesopotamia as the “cradle of human civilization.” But the Sumerians, the original inhabitants of Mesopotamia referred to a place called Telmun as the original Garden of Eden. In the Sumerian Saga of Enki, Telmun is a place where people don’t grow old and there is no pain or disease. An American archaeologist named Juris Zarins who did a lot of field work in Saudi Arabia made the rather remarkable theory that the Garden of Eden is presently submerged somewhere in the Persian Gulf. That’s just south from the “cradle of human civilization” known as Mesopotamia. I do not completely agree with all aspects of his theory, but I do agree with his location.

Going back to extrapolating with Islamic canon, what seems to have happened is that there was corruption and perversion, followed by a Great Flood, which led to the permanent submergence of Eden, but one Prophet and his followers were spared, and they went on to propagate for generations.

And it seems not all of Eden was submerged. A high plateau remained over sea-level, and the proto-Phoenicians continued to inhabit it. It was called Dilmun, and the name appears to be a play on Telmun. And it still retained many of the characteristics of the original Eden. You still find this name in Phoenician circles, but they misspell it to kill the connection (Dimon, Diman, Dimona etc.). There is reason to believe this is none other than present-day Bahrain! 

But Bahrain is no Eden. Like the rest of the coast of the Persian Gulf on the Arabian side, it is desertified, and summer temperatures, combined with humidity, make it a rather uncomfortable choice (at least for non-locals). Add to that, its present reputation as a Vegas for rich Saudis makes it unpalatable to many. So what happened here? 

Further extrapolating with Islamic canon, Arabia and Bahrain used to have lush-green jungles with several rivers flowing through Arabia and draining into the Persian Gulf. Today, no rivers flow through the Arabian Peninsula, but the ancient, dried-up river beds remain. But then the proto-Phoenicians started worshiping and appeasing demons^[4]Is Dilmun a play on Demon? and fallen angels. And a meteor struck South-Eastern Arabia, burning down everything and creating permanent deserts, which extended into Bahrain. It was at this point that the Phoenicians migrated from the South-Eastern Arabian coast and eventually settled along the Mediterranean coast. They would name their most important outpost on the coast of Lebanon as Tyre (It was destroyed by the Mamluks). Tyre in turn was named after Tylos, the Greek name for Bahrain. To quote,

Strabo, the Greek historian, geographer and philosopher mentioned that the Phoenicians came from Eastern Arabia where they have similar gods, cemeteries and temples. This theory was accepted by the 19th-century German classicist Arnold Heeren who said that: “In the Greek geographers, for instance, we read of two islands, named Tyrus or Tylos, and Arad, Bahrain, which boasted that they were the mother country of the Phoenicians, and exhibited relics of Phoenician temples”.[21] The people of Tyre, Lebanon in particular have long maintained Persian Gulf origins, and the similarity in the words “Tylos” and “Tyre” has been commented upon.

On the Mediterranean coast, the Phoenicians would name their second-most important island citadel after Tyre as Arwad, after the island of Arad in Bahrain.

But Bahrain was still too important for them to completely abandon. And some of them lingered on in Bahrain. Maybe because there are still locations on that island where ageing doesn’t happen. And there are rumors of “artisanal wells” with healing water still around. There are still currents of fresh water in the ocean around Bahrain, which are suitable for drinking. To quote,

The Arab navigator, Ahmad Bin Majid, visited Bahrain in 1489 prior to the Portuguese’ arrival in the region and gave an account of the country: “In Awal (Bahrain) there are 360 villages and fresh water can be found in a number of places. A most wonderful al-Qasasir, where a man can dive into the salt sea with a skin and can fill it with fresh water while he is submerged in the salt water. Around Bahrain are pearl fisheries and a number of islands all of which have pearl fisheries and connected with this trade are 1,000 ships” (Majid, Arab Navigation in the Indian Ocean before the Coming of the Portuguese. Trans. G.R. Tibbetts. The Royal Asisatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland, 1981.)

This miraculous phenomenon gets an honorable mention in the Quran, and the word Bahrain is mentioned by name in the original Arabic text!

He has loosed both seas
which still come together;
between them lies an isthmus
which neither tries to cross.
So which of your Lord’s benefits
will both of you deny?

He produces pearls and coral from them both;
so which of our Lord’s benefits
will both of you deny?

The Quran – 55 – Trans. T. B. Irving

The Persian Empire, which at this point was being run by Greek-Phoenicians after they infiltrated the Achaemenids, showed a keen interest in maintaining control over Bahrain. When Alexander the Great showed up, one of his commanders personally visited Bahrain. Persian-Zoroastrian influence continued, but many locals seem to have turned to Nestorean Christianity. Then Islam came and like a sun going out, there was suddenly no more Persian Empire. The Prophet of Islam Muhammad ﷺ personally wrote a letter to the ruler of Bahrain in which he specifically alludes to “Jews” on the island who would now have to pay jizya. Bahrain would collectively embrace Islam in his lifetime and has never looked back since. 

The Beginnings of the Bahrain Obsession

But things were never peaceful even after Islam. And this phase continues to the present day, with crypto-Phoenicians trying to assert themselves directly or indirectly on the island. And this is the Bahrain Obsession the title of this essay alludes to. Compare the modern history of Bahrain to any other nation, and you are unlikely to see such vicious power struggles, often involving foreign countries. Something unnatural and conspiratorial has been at play here ever since Bahrain became Muslim.

“Intellectuals” based in Bahrain were involved in fomenting the earliest schisms in Islam. When newer Shiite schisms were created, the Phoenicians needed theologians to build them up from scratch as alternatives to Sunni Islam. And these “theologians” were sourced exclusively from Bahrain and Lebanon. Why was it necessary to build alternatives to mainstream Sunni Islam? Because Turkic groups were seriously undermining Roman-Phoenician control of the Middle east and were threatening Europe. These groups would never accept anything other than Islam. And so, it became necessary to create sneaky variants of Islam, which while outwardly Islamic, allowed the Phoenicians to go on with their usual millennarian, apocalyptic warmongering. They also needed to sidestep several Islamic restrictions, such as the one on cheating and deception. They needed a religious bureaucracy for a state-controlled religion, and Sunni Islam was too personalized for that. The Turkic groups that fell for this were reconstituted in Iran as the Qizilbash. By then, the Ottomans had also been infiltrated, and both the Ottomans and the Safavids later conspired to destroy these Turkic groups at Chaldiran. 

The Phoenicians immediately returned to Bahrain disguised as Ismailis/Qarmatians,^[5]The Qarmatians later branched away from Nizari Ismailis, who are currently still led by the Agha Khan, a literal Dr. Evil. with reinforcements from Iraq. They established a proto-Communist society in Bahrain and started abolishing all Islamic practices. They would soon raid Mecca and kill thousands of Muslim pilgrims. What is most interesting is that they stole a sacred stone embedded on a corner of the Kaaba, which according to Islamic canon, is from Eden (It was later recovered). They also tried to damage the Zamzam aquifer, which indicates that they were aware of the relevance of these things. The Qarmatians lost control of Bahrain to local Arab Bedouins. While most of them were Sunni Muslims, Shiite influence prevailed over Bahrain. Then Sunni Bedouin tribes based in the Al-Ahsa oasis in present-day Saudi Arabia took control of Bahrain. This raised such big alarm bells for the Phoenicians that they had the Portuguese sail around Africa in full force, just to conquer Bahrain! Bahrain would become the first Middle Eastern country to be colonized by a European power. But the Portuguese stood on shaky ground, and were almost overthrown several times. One such Arab-Sunni rebellion took place when the Portuguese ordered the execution of the island’s richest traders. The Portuguese were eventually driven out after eighty years. 

But the Phoenicians were in no mood to concede power to Sunni Arabs. By then, another branch of European-Phoenicians linked to the extinct Byzantines had established themselves in Iran as the Safavids. And with the failure of the Portuguese, the Safavids stepped in to fill their shoes. The Safavids began to aggressively promote a state-centric variant of Twelver Shiisim known as Usulism. However, Bahraini Shiites seemed to prefer the more independent Akhbari Shiism, and the Safavids tried hard to oppose these Shiites with limited success. The Safavids collapsed after a single Afghan invasion in the 18th Century. Oman would invade Bahrain. Iran would try to get it back several times. On one occasion, Iran would burn the cities of Bahrain to the ground hoping to depopulate it. In 1763, it was reported that Bahrain’s 360 towns and villages had, through warfare and economic distress, been reduced to only 60.

Bahrain would fall to the Sunni-Arab Al-Khalifa family, who would counter both Iran and Oman with success, and they continue to be its present rulers. They would negotiate an alliance with the British, while at the same time, dodging dozens of British conspiracies. They would even extend their control over neighboring Qatar. Later they managed to dodge a Saudi invasion. They even allied with the Ottomans to prevent a British invasion. The British finally overpowered the Khalifa family and made Bahrain a British Protectorate in 1861. While the British had no intention to protect Bahrain from their conspiracies, this arrangement prevented Bahrain from entering into alliances with other countries to shake off the British. With the British came Jewish merchants, who soon started drawing local resentment. The British slowly started seeding a Communist movement, and they also started fomenting a controlled confrontation between this movement and themselves, with the aim to eventually direct this movement towards the Al-Khalifa family, while the British would quietly depart once this was accomplished. This plot was a spectacular failure.

With British Naval power being replaced with that of USA, Bahrain was granted independence in 1971, but the United States Fifth Fleet moved in to the ten acres previously occupied by the British. They also resumed the usual Phoenician intrigues. In 1979, the Phoenicians managed to reinstall a Shiite theocracy in Iran after a gap of 243 years. The purpose of this new theocracy was to:

1. Provide false opposition to Israel. 
2. Replace/Supplant Saudi Arabia’s (or rather, King Faisal’s) genuine opposition to Israel.
3. Replace/Supplant Saudi Arabia’s (or rather, King Faisal’s) involvement in Palestinian politics. 

The Powers That Be had realized that there would always be opposition to Israel. It was better to have it managed by a new power internally connected to them, rather than risk allowing a genuine leader like King Faisal to monopolize it. There was also a more sinister role Iran was expected to play. And that was to:

4.  Prevent the emergence of legit, powerful Arab nations in the Gulf by colonizing them through export of the Iranian Revolution. Israel was too far away to accomplish the same. The Soviets had no access to the Indian Ocean. USA was isolationist back then. And European powers such as Britain and France would encounter too much local opposition. On the other hand, Iran could take advantage of Shiite minorities in the Gulf, which other powers could not.

As soon as Iran had its Revolution in 1979, the Phoenicians attempted an Iranian coup in Bahrain. They intended to kill the entire ruling family and install Iran-backed crypto-Phoenicians over Bahrain. The United States Fifth Fleet was secretly involved in this plot. Thereafter, we see Iran and Hezbollah trying hard to agitate the Shiites of Bahrain against the monarchy, even supplying them with arms, bombs and cash. The UK came back in the game, with many Shiite opposition figures being given refuge in London. American officials were also involved in the overthrow the monarchy. To quote,

In July 2014 Bahrain expelled the United States Assistant Secretary of State for Democracy, Human Rights and Labor, Tom Malinowski, after he had met members of the leading Shia opposition group, Al-Wefaq, a move that the Foreign ministry of Bahrain said ‘intervened in the country’s domestic affairs’. Previously, in May 2011, pro government websites and newspapers targeted US embassy’s human rights officer, Ludovic Hood, and published information on where he and his family lived after accusing him of training and provoking demonstrations, being a Zionist and working in cooperation with Hezbollah. Hood had been photographed handing out donuts to demonstrators outside the US embassy in Bahrain. The US government subsequently withdrew Hood from Bahrain.

The Phoenicians are believed to have taken control of neighboring Qatar in some kind of secret conspiracy in recent times.^[6]On 26th March 2026, there was some high-level secret meeting in Doha, Qatar. As if on cue, the skies in the entire region became cloudy, and it seems some “visitors” from Western countries showed up in spacecraft! We see Qatar and its Al Jazeera New Network also involved in anti-Monarchy protests in Bahrain. In one case, the ruler of Qatar was recorded talking to a Shiite cleric of Bahrain. To quote,

Sheikh Ali Salman, the Secretary-General of Al-Wefaq National Islamic Society was arrested on 28 December 2014,The case against Sheikh Ali Salman is based on recorded telephone conversations he had with the-then Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of Qatar, Sheikh Hamad Bin Jassim Bin Jabr Al Thani, in 2011.

Interestingly, Qatar, along with another compromised entity, Oman, are not signatories to the Abraham Accords. Because the Phoenicians know that Israel has no intention of honoring them. And some of the Gulf leaders were tricked into signing so that their legitimacy would be severely eroded in the eyes of their own people. 

Neither the monarchy of Bahrain, nor the Shiite agitators are free of fault. But the Shiites of Qatar at least have religious freedom. Whereas the Sunnis of Iran have no such luxuries. And the monarchies of Gulf countries are fairly new. On the other hand, we have British monarchs going back 960 years, engaging in countless conspiracies and wars across the entire world, and no one in the UK is serious about getting rid of them. That is because British society is so finely tuned and micromanaged by the Phoenicians that they get to tell the citizenry what to think, what to hate and what to worry about. 

You may argue that the British also have a parliamentary democracy at Westminister. However all the members represent the same old Phoenician families. There are dungeons below Westminister where children are rumored to be held. And these blokes allegedly rape them during recess, and then show up back in parliament to voice concerns about women’s rights in faraway Afghanistan. 

In 2022, a naked man was filmed trying to escape from a window of Buckingham Palace (He would fall to his death). The fact-checkers are now claiming this was some kind of bizarre promo for a 2015 TV show on the royals. In 2009, a 21-year-old Mexican model Gabriela Rico Jiménez was filmed having a severe public outburst outside the Fiesta Inn hotel in Monterrey, Mexico. Distressed and yelling in Spanish, she accused British royals of cannibalism at a party she attended. The model disappeared from public life after this incident. 

And the average person in UK is more concerned about fake Pakistani grooming gangs. 

Then there are people in Western societies who notice too much, and end up being flagged by the Phoenicians, becoming persona-non-gratas. Its called Gangstalking. That doesn’t happen even in Bahrain. The monarchy has no time for that. 

In other words, a genuine Muslim monarch is always a better deal than some crypto-Phoenician “elected” leader of a Western country. The people running the system matter more than the system (Or what the system claims to be).

Beyond the Dilmun Connection

Previously, we established a case that the Phoenicians have historic ties to Dilmun/Bahrain and want it back. They also see the Sunni-Arabs of Gulf countries as squatters, who are to be destroyed and evicted like the indigenous tribes who once occupied the Americas. And Iran is their ticket to war with Sunni-Arab Gulf countries. 

But there must be more to their hatred of Sunni-Arabs Gulf countries than claims dating back to antiquity.

Maybe it is the fact that Arabs of the Arabian Peninsula, (unlike silly Mediterranean Arabs and Canaanites), especially those conditioned by the desert, tend to have sharp instincts. They are Semitic people. And some say they have the capability to out-Jew out-conspire the Phoenicians. One such leader, King Faisal of Saudi Arabia did manage to do that in his reign.^[7]Libyan crypto-Jewish leader Gaddafi once took up the cause of African unity. Many speculated where this was coming from. It turns out he was parodying Faisal, who had become extremely popular in African circles. Back then, Saudi oil was critical to the US Economy, and this gave him leverage to prevent the Zionists from using US resources in the 1973 war. The Phoenicians had plans in place to have Americans invade Saudi Arabia and secure the oil wells. They backed off when they learnt that Faisal planned to blow up his own oil wells rather than let them fall into the hands of others. The Phoenicians then came to Faisal, apologizing and slobbering, but they also had him assassinated later on, because he had almost secured a Palestinian state. 

Maybe it is the fact that Arabs of the Arabian Peninsula have never been completely colonized, and still maintain sovereign tribal structures of older times. 

Maybe it is the fact that Arabs of the Arabian Peninsula have never had their legal traditions substituted or corrupted with British laws, and many of their concepts and views are still derived from Shariah law. The same cannot be said of many Muslim-majority nations, such as Pakistan. 

Maybe it is the fact that UAE, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain have still not instituted a formal Income Tax because it has no basis in Shariah law. This, combined with the fact that their cities now have First World standards has resulted in a huge influx of talent, capital and resources from all around the world, and especially from regions where governments indulge in predatory taxation.^[8]The marvel of Gulf-Arab countries is that their economies are open to the poorest people of Asia. I have seen entire villages in the Subcontinent, where the poorest have managed to uplift themselves from their failed economies by pursuing labor opportunities in the Gulf. As one of them said to me, brain drain is better than brain in the drain. Some predicted that if the UAE would grow economically at the same pace for another twenty years, it would outpace many European nations.^[9]On the other hand, tax havens in the West, such as Switzerland, Bermuda and the US Virgin Islands are invitation-only venues. You must be a millionaire to access them, and you are only “protected” if you are dealing with their Epsteins.

As of March 2026, Iran is openly threatening an invasion of UAE and Bahrain. Iran is lobbing missiles on Gulf nations, while also firing a token missile or two at Israel to claim some “Islamic power” cred from the gullible.^[10]And it seems some paid Pakistani Youtube influencers are exaggerating the impact of Iranian missiles in Israel, if they are really American. They could be launched from some submarine in the Mediterranean. The reality is that the majority of these missiles are directed at the UAE. Why would that be? 

Iran claims it is attacking those whose infrastructure is being used by USA and Israel to attack Iran. Going by that logic, Afghanistan should be fully justified in attacking Iran because Iran secretly allowed its airports to be used by the United States Air Force to attack Afghanistan following the 9/11 hoax.^[11]Of all Gulf Arab countries, only Bahrain was involved in facilitating the US attack on Afghanistan. And Iran’s cozy relationship with China, a country that is involved in the genocide of its Uyghur-Muslim citizenry raises serious questions about Iran’s “Islamic” credentials. 

Iran is also blocking oil tankers from Gulf countries from passing through the Strait of Hormuz, despite the fact that the majority of this oil is destined for Asian markets. Not exactly USA, and not Israel. ^[12]At the same time, Iran is supplying China with its own oil instead. Why does Iran get to block Gulf nations from using the Strait of Hormuz (which is a part of the ocean, not a canal) while exporting its own oil through other ports further east? 

Trump who stirred up this war, is suddenly mumbling and fumbling, and hinting that Saudi Arabia is pushing him into this war, and that he will demand money from them. The headquarters of the US Fifth Fleet in Bahrain is suddenly no longer resilient, and had its radars taken out by Iranian drones. The world’s largest aircraft carrier, the USS Gerald R. Ford, is currently docked in Crete, for repairs after a mysterious fire was started in the laundry area. US bases in Bahrain, UAE, Kuwait, Iraq and Qatar have been bombed by Iran. Five U.S. Air Force tanker aircraft were damaged at Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia following an Iranian missile attack. Even a US E-3 AWACS aircraft has been destroyed on the ground. 

While Iranians (with the exception of the Kurds and the Arabs of Khuzistan) are too feeble minded to attempt an uprising, they do sound jubilant when videoing American missiles hitting IRGC buildings. Maybe this is the reason why the war commenced with an American missile attack that fake-killed 175 schoolgirls. The citizenry had to be scared into not seeing the Americans as liberators. The American media and the American administration avoid questioning this event, which indicates it was a joint-production.

Compare this war with the US response to 9/11. They turned two of the tallest buildings in New York into bongs to sway public support. They denied Taliban a peaceful solution. They bombed Afghanistan to the Stone Age and occupied it for 20 years. They killed Taliban leader Mullah Omar after he wrote to Obama requesting peace.

So have the Phoenicians become lazy at stirring war? Or are they enabling Iranian aggression by deliberately dragging their feet when it comes to attacking Iran?

Allies or All Lies?

Historically, Phoenicians approach nations that they target with “friendly” military alliances. And maybe the Abraham Accords was intended to embroil the Gulf nations into conflict. The way these “friendly” military alliances work is that the Phoenicians convince the leadership of the targeted countries into unifying their military command with that of Western nations. They also dazzle them with their technology and military prowess. When war begins, Western military command deliberately walks the armies of the target nation into destruction. In the process, Western militaries also suffer huge deaths and destruction. But this is used to absolve them of any conspiracy or bad faith.

What non-Western nations fail to grasp is that the Phoenicians would be willing to happily sacrifice twice the number of their own men,^[13]Why do you think Kissinger referred to his own American soldiers as dumb, stupid animals? as well as all of their military hardware and bases, just to destroy the army of a target nation they fake-allied with. This is only possible because the Phoenicians micromanage Western societies. Nobody asks tough questions. The soldiers that die are replaced like a new batch of tomatoes grown on a vine.^[14]The Phoenicians are also stingy in supporting veterans. Most Canadian veterans who participated in the Second World War are no longer around because they received a very special batch of Covid-19 vaccines. Equipment that is lost can easily be replaced by their taxpayers, no questions asked. But the armies and personnel of the target nation are genuine and irreplaceable, and the real purpose of the war(s) is to destroy them. 

I have studied this phenomenon in great detail in my book on the World Wars.

The Ottomans would still be around had they not unified their military command with the Germans. The Phoenicians had planned to snatch the Straits of Gallipoli along with Istanbul/Constantinople from the Turks by the end of World War I. But it seems some lower level Turkish commanders managed to inflict a serious defeat on the Allies. Logically, the Turks could have killed all the Australians and New Zealanders who had landed there, or better yet, taken them as prisoners. But we find the German military command secretly negotiating their safe exit! When the Ottomans were retreating from the Middle East, the Germans had the most powerful Ottoman Seventh Army retreat along a railway line all the way to Damascus. In the days before GPS and satellite imagery, railway lines served as markers for Allied pilots to follow. And they would bomb the Ottoman Seventh Army when it trekked through a canyon. 

South Vietnam would have still been around had they not entrusted their military affairs with the Americans. Henry Kissinger saw an opportunity to turn over all of Vietnam to the Soviet-backed Communists by having South Vietnam play villain. South Vietnam would lose its legitimacy when it supported barbaric US military campaigns against North Vietnam. A total of 2,709,918 Americans served^[15]Many of those forcibly drafted were hippies, who had been identified via COINTELPRO programs. The Phoenicians didn’t want them. in Vietnam, of which 58,281 were killed (or went missing) and 303, 644 were wounded. Many of those missing were people of technical abilities, and they were secretly transferred to the Soviet Union. Their widows are still around seeking answers. You would think that a nation of literate people like the USA would hold multiple public inquiries to figure out what happened. But they have moved on. That is the level of micromanagement the Phoenicians have in Western societies. But of course, this is only visible to those residents who keep their eyes open. Outsiders and people of other nations generally have no clue what a military alliance with a Western nation really entails. Its OK to buy their services, equipment and training. But giving them local command enables horrendous Phoenician conspiracies.
