Cui bono?

Co-author of the Defence Strategic Review 2023, Peter Dean is well known, at least partially because he posts his resume highlights on every website that will allow him to do so. But more importantly, he receives funding from the following:

The governments of:

  • Japan
  • Taiwan
  • United Arab Emirates
  • United States of American (US State Department)

Through the Center for Strategic and International Studies:

  • Bank of America Corporation
  • Northrop Grumman Corporation
  • BP
  • Chevron Corporation
  • Citigroup
  • Exxon Mobil Corporation
  • Facebook
  • General Atomics
  • JPMorgan Chase & Co.
  • Lockheed Martin Corporation
  • SAIC
  • Saudi Aramco
  • Bechtel Corporation
  • Boeing
  • Equinor
  • Ever Summit
  • General Dynamics Corporation
  • Hess Corporation
  • Merck & Co., Inc.
  • Microsoft
  • Mitsubishi Corporation
  • Pan American Energy
  • Qualcomm
  • Raytheon Company
  • Samsung Electronics
  • SK Group

So when he says Australia really needs to buy the latest white elephant from Lockheed Grumman Astrobomber Corporation, keep in mind that he’s basically their sales representative.

  1. […] And Springfield really needs that monorail. Why is it that “It’s different now” or “New challenges” always results in tax-payers’ dollars going to American businesses? […]
