No, it wasn't.
It seems however, that the main point of this article was misunderstood. Maybe I didn't express it cleanly enough, and some of the remarks in it contributed to it being misunderstood?
With the list and my comments about the list my intention was not to state that "this is what they really want" or that "this cannot be what they really want". All I wanted was to start a discussion thread about possibly weird or unconventional ideas about what the true long-term goals of their leadership could be, assuming them to be very intelligent and rational. My examples (including my doubts about them) were just meant to be a starting point. Do you think they distract from the main purpose? If so, I'm happy to remove or revise them.
