Why is the Pentagon not a giant honeypot / decoy? They paint a huge target on their back. You don't want to advertise your core infra somewhere obvious. You need your core infra in obscure locations where people don't look. Military strategy 101.

The Pentagon is full of think tanks and high level policy makers and paper pushers with command stripes all the way down to their pantlegs. They stuff they deal with is pretty much the military at its highest possible level of abstraction (though obviously also at its highest level of Intel clearance).

Any of the actual command and control rooms you are probably thinking of are much more likely to be buried under a mountain in Colorado somewhere or simply in the complexes of actual military bases than they are to be in the Pentagon itself.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

They should convert it into condos, not tell the enemy, and move command and all operations to a small section of Apple Park. No one would dare assault Apple Park.

Why not? Apple headquarters looks like it's equipped with unknown weapons and could take flight at any moment. Their plan to hide their saucer -style UFO isn't as secret as they think.

Their shields of smugness are impenetrable to conventional weapons. It is somewhat of a coincidental miracle that light doesn't bounce off them.
