Here’s a summary of the provided text with the requested annotations:

The author Miles Mathis argues that the media’s narrative about Raytheon needing to rehire retired engineers to build Stinger missiles for Ukraine is a fabricated story designed to justify increased military spending. Mathis claims the Ukraine War itself is fake, as are the stories emanating from Langley and the Pentagon. He highlights the implausibility of Raytheon being unable to produce Stinger missiles due to outdated blueprints, suggesting that modern defense budgets and existing manufacturing capabilities should make this scenario absurd. Mathis draws parallels to other seemingly unbelievable events like 11 and the Bay of Pigs invasion to support his claim of manufactured narratives. He cites Wikipedia to point out that Raytheon also has manufacturing agreements with Airbus Defence and Space in Germany and Roketsan in Turkey, suggesting these entities would also have the plans. Further, Mathis notes that Wikipedia also mentions a US Army request for information for a replacement MANPADS issued in 2020, with a contract planned for 2026, predating the alleged urgency caused by the Ukraine War. He suggests this pre-existing plan for replacement missiles is being exploited by the current narrative to “use up” old Stinger stockpiles and expedite new contracts, driving up costs and justifying further expenditure. The author sarcastically points out the “coincidence” of the supposed production date of new Stinger missiles (2026) matching the planned contract date for replacements. He is writing this on July 2, 2023 while experiencing extreme heat (108F).
