This delta makes perfect sense, given what else Q has told us. I believe one of the posts asked, ["What advantage do you gain from knowing your enemies' playbook?"]

We've been given enough to know that things have been extensively war-gamed out based on the enemy's plan. How this can be done is because we know some things about our enemy.

-They are set in their goals. They try to keep set timetables, probably to better coordinate the massive number of minions they have to control. Changing plans any great degree would require communication through active channels which can, and have been, compromised. So, not only are they locked into their plans and trying to salvage plans, trying to dramatically change them would mean things would be discovered and countered, only leaving a desperate path to make original plans work despite them being actively countered.

-They are stupid. I think this has to be taken a specific way. To say that they are dumb and leave it at that is overlooking the fact that they have, and have had, the intelligence, mostly likely as guided by Satan, to control and manipulate the governments and false-religions of the world for millennia. When Satan tempted Jesus by saying that he could give Him all the kingdoms of the world, Jesus didn't dispute that fact. So, they are VERY intelligent and are not to be underestimated. They are also evil and know no limits in the depravity of tools they'll use to control and manipulate people.

How they are stupid is in that they underestimated the intelligence of those working against them. They are complacent because, for thousands of years, there was no legitimate coordinated opposition that couldn't be dismantled, shrugged off, or corrupted. They have long since lost their flexibility and the advances in technology have provided their enemies (all of us and the white-hats) with new resources to use that provide great flexibility to circumvent all of the previous methods of controlling the flow of information.

To make things worse for them, they also came to rely on the perks of such technology. As they were complacent in their dominance, they never considered the degree to which what they used to more easily coordinate their efforts could be used by a smaller and more flexible force to destroy them. All their tried-and-true blackmail and methods for coercing individuals were adapted to use modern technology without sufficient safeguards. These things being in the hands of the white-hats means that what the Cabal can do is limited to certain boundaries set by the white-hats.

These boundaries are the lines at which releasing the information, starting civil wars across the globe, and mobs rampaging until every last cabal member is dealt with, is preferable to allowing the Cabal success. The priority is always the path of least death for the white-hats, but they will cross the line if needed, or Obama likely wouldn't have stepped down and made way for military-backed President Trump. Because of this, the Cabal is pinned in and has to play by the rules or face certain destruction. All made possible by their hubris.

Because of this, the Cabal can be forced down a specific course as they have to abide by the rules set for the game, all while knowing that the White-hats have taken the initiative and are controlling the game to the point of being able to select specific dates for stages of their operation far in advance.

That is why NCSWIC and in the end, God wins. He is our top general and it is stupid to try to think that you can out-plan or out-maneuver one who is beyond His own creation of time, allowing HIm to see the entirety of history of HIS creation, from beginning to end, all at once.
