China helped Iran crack Iron Dome.
This wasn’t a regional skirmish. It was a proxy test of China’s war model.
Beijing stayed silent. Tehran pulled the trigger.
Here’s the thread no Western outlet will run. (1/11)

Media outlets like NPR blame this on uranium.
As if Iran suddenly figured out how to overwhelm one of the most advanced missile defense systems.
This was no accident. It was designed. (2/11)

What happened was a real-time demonstration of Chinese warfare principles.
Mass, ambiguity, deniability.
Iran was just the delivery system. China was the architect. (3/11)

Iran’s drones aren’t junk anymore.
They fly coordinated, autonomous, and lethal.
That’s Chinese targeting AI and optical systems.
This wasn’t homemade. It was licensed through silence. (4/11)

Swarm tactics didn’t come from Tehran.
They came from Guangdong labs and PLA simulations.
Iran executed a doctrine China has been perfecting for Taiwan. (5/11)

Iron Dome wasn’t built for this.
It was built for lone rockets. Not multi-vector drone-missile combinations launched with precision timing.
This was a stress test. It failed. (6/11)

The supply chain is the real story.
Iranian missiles run on Chinese chips, Chinese servos, Chinese nav units.
Nothing says “indigenous” like parts from a Shenzhen container yard. (7/11)

China didn’t sell weapons. It sold capability.
Iran gets plausible deniability.
China gets a combat-proven proxy and real-time telemetry from a U.S.-backed target. (8/11)

If Iron Dome can’t keep up, what happens in Taiwan?
What happens to Aegis? To Japan’s missile net?
Everyone watching saw the same thing. The tech stack bleeds. (9/11)

No Western outlet will admit this.
They’ll hide behind uranium, theology, or “regional tensions.”
Because the truth is worse.
China is shaping modern warfare, and doing it by remote control. (10/11)

This wasn’t about Gaza or deterrence.
It was Beijing’s war game. Tehran was just the willing vessel.
China didn’t need boots. It needed proof.
And it got it. (11/11)
