New: Grey Dynamics After Action Report 📡 #111


Dear subscriber,

While America sleeps, global power structures are being quietly rearranged.

This week's intelligence briefing reveals a potential stunning reversal of history: the EU is orchestrating what E.C. Browne calls "Operation Paperclip 2.0" – actively recruiting America's top STEM talent as the US closes immigration pathways and slashes research funding.

The strategic implications? Europe is positioning to create its own DARPA-equivalent and capture technological leadership in AI, quantum computing, and autonomous systems.

Meanwhile, Russia and China have taken the lead in weaponised AI applications, with Russia prioritising military integration and cyber warfare. While China leverages AI for unprecedented surveillance and information control.

The UAE has emerged as a strategic third player, expertly navigating between US and Chinese interests.

Our field sources report escalating clashes in post-Assad Syria, North Korean missiles showing alarming accuracy improvements in Ukraine, and South Korea's elite 707th Special Mission Group (their version of Delta Force) expanding operational capabilities.

British military intelligence has made significant advances with "Dragonfire" – their new directed energy weapon system – while German counterintelligence restructures to address emerging threats.

The global chessboard is being reset. The players who understand these moves first gain the advantage.

Dig in,

Ahmed CEO Grey Dynamics

Operation Paperclip 2.0: The EU to create it's own DARPA?

Signals have emerged that the United States is rapidly moving in a direction less hospitable to immigrants in STEM fields. In addition to this, reports of reduced federal funding for STEM - combined with concerns over immigration pathways for high-skilled researchers - have led many foreign scientists and engineers to look for new opportunities abroad.

This briskly shifting landscape has prompted numerous European leaders and institutions to consider how best to attract these skilled individuals while simultaneously building up capacity for advanced research.

In some respects, the situation echoes Operation Paperclip, but reversed, where instead of scientists fleeing Europe into the United States, they’re leaving the US as it harshly pivots towards...

707th Special Mission Group: The South Korean Delta Force

South Korea’s 707th Special Mission Group, unofficially referred to as the “White Tigers” in the local military, is the tier one special operations force of the Republic of Korea Army (ROKA). Established in 1981 in response to growing international security threats, including the kidnapping of Korean nationals abroad, the unit was initially conceived as a counterterrorism force focused on hostage rescue. However, it morphed into a multipurpose unit capable of unconventional warfare and direct action, both in an overt and covert capacity.
