I think Q's saying that if they just blurted out the truth 99% of the people (civilians) would be casualties of a last resort cabal attack.
IMO, Snow White and Iron Eagle are quantum computing and infiltrator tactics to take apart cabal weapon systems before they can be used. IOW, the Cabal has to be led to believe they can win without a last resort scenario until their weapons have been rendered useless, or have been degraded to a degree that civilian casualties will be much fewer.
Tie into that, the Pearl Harbor analogy, meaning there will be a surprise/sneak attack designed to bring us into open warfare. To that end, stay at home lock downs are in in place as preventative measures to attacks military in nature, and the extension of the lock downs are meant to ensure people take it seriously and have stocked up provisions necessary to hold them over. The CV scare is the one tactic that would force people to obey the lock down, because it is the best way to overcome normalcy bias. Most people would not put stock in warnings of possible military action.
