A bad combination. After fifteen years, that's what it's come to, insanity repeated so often it's taken as sane.

And how much imagination does a handwave take?

It's like Axxman says- it's not only fiction, it's crummy fiction. It's aspiring to (say) Tom Clancy and not even quite making Clive Cussler.
You're doing Clive, who is at least a successful hack, an injustice. I'd say, "...not even making LaVoy Finicum."

But then, I've written Yankee451 off as a troll, at least functionally, because his whole incoherent mess of a story is not just nonsensical, it's so dedicatedly anti-sensical.

It was good for a laugh for a while, although none of it is particularly original.
