I think that one can study the methodology of 4D STS by watching the actions of 3D STS. The NWO cabal is doing what they're doing largely because 4D STS is telling them to. If they are obedient little pawns and successful, they have probably been promised some kind of reward, probably a certain degree of power over all of the other slaves on Earth. A lot of their strategies and things they do are probably adapted from 4D STS.
The US generally follows the same template over and over again when trying to bring a wayward country to heel. The first stage is to economically sabotage the country in an effort to try to make the leaders unpopular and oust them. If that doesn't work, there are proxy armies and color revolutions, and assassination attempts. If that doesn't work, war is declared and there is a direct invasion.
In terms of a 4D STS war on humanity to ensure that Earth stays in the orbit of the Orion Empire, the first stage would be something like sabotaging the economy of information. To get rid of the true teachings and replace them with false religions which lead to enslavement, ultimately. Then various genetic tweaks can be introduced into the species to make sure that it can't receive these teachings, even if they are available and keep them as dumbed-down as body centric as possible. Any potential teachers are abducted and encoded with subliminal instructions to destroy themselves so they are no longer a threat. This strategy has been mostly successful. Most people have been effectively corralled into mainstream religions and neutralized. However, from time to time, the veil is torn and movements arise which threaten to reveal he truth and become a threat.
So we move to the second stage, infiltration. Create drone humanoids, which are programmed to do your bidding and manipulate the circumstances surrounding their lives so that they always get into positions of authority and more or less do what you want. Transport an aggressive race of soldiers to enforce the rule of the drone commanders created earlier. Place them in subtly tweaked human bodies so that no one knows who they are. This has been wildly successful. Most countries on Earth receive "instructions" which are carried out to diligently prepare the conditions to establish complete dominion. Troublesome cases from the first stage are either kept occupied trying to avoid the worst of the injustices or demoralized from being subjected to a perpetual state of controlled chaos. It is a tricky equilibrium to maintain indefinitely because it is inherently unstable and can be upset by subtle shifts.
The final stage is to pull a "V" and come riding to the rescue of humanity like the US goes into Syria to fight ISIS. The conditions from stages 1 and 2, plus planetary upheavals, plus general confusion due to the intersection of a "realm border" should create perfect conditions for a race that will worship anyone who can solve it's problems, problems that are almost entirely manufactured. Miraculous technologies will be offered which are far beyond comprehension, which they will become utterly reliant on. In order to continue to supply these technologies, certain sacrifices will be demanded in the name of the great empire. This is obviously still outstanding, and if things go right, the "invasion" will be more of a friendly seminar where the space brothers declare how they will save us all.
Something I've been thinking about recently is whether the situation with Russia is sort of a representation of what is going on in 4D, with the Earth being kind of like Syria. Syria asked for help and Russia gave what was asked. Now it is up to Syria to gain enough "polarization" so that there are no more vulnerabilities the US can latch into and it becomes inedible because it becomes part of a different reality, so to speak. This little geopolitical show is a foreshadowing of the real show, for those with eyes to see. Or I'm just seeing connections where there are none.
