That's not what game theory says. Defecting against everyone you meet is a losing strategy in an iterated multi-actor prisoner's dilemma. Tit-for-tat does much better. Establishing and maintaining mutual trust, to cooperate with those who are willing to cooperate with you, is in a nation's interests.

Maintaining an operative network to support an information network and flexible operations (either to help or hinder a nation-state) is THE winning strategy. > Tit-for-tat does much better. That is incorrect, in context.
