If this is all part of the plan, it's a terrible fucking plan.
If the culmination of all the greatest military strategic minds could only come up with "Willingly give the DS back 100% control and destroy the country beyond repair" - Then you need new intelligence.
I could have come up with a better plan on my own.
It's called, expose + arrest + prison / executions + replace + structure change with absolute oversight.
Boom, saved you ten years of Q dicking around.
