Part 5/7:
The Strategic Objective: Destabilization of Western Societies
The overarching goal appears to be a strategic weakening of Western nations through the destruction of their social cohesion and stability. The influx of illicit drugs contributes to societal breakdown, addiction epidemics, and increased crime rates, all of which serve to erode trust in institutions and foster discord.
This method of indirect influence and destabilization aligns with broader narratives of asymmetric warfare—where traditional military conflict is replaced or supplemented by covert operations, economic warfare, and social destabilization tactics.
