I agree.  Spoilers ahead for those who haven't played the final mission.


- GDI never uses ION beam (of course, I couldn't use NUKE, either, but...)

- GDI never really attacked me unless I attacked first.  When I got my
  second contruction yard, all of these GDI forces just sat next to me
  as I helplessly built my second base.  A huge GDI force, including engineers,
  just sat there doing NOTHING until I built an oblisk right next to them.
  Then they fought back and blew away the oblisk, but then they did nothing
  as I build a SECOND oblisk!

- After I established a second base and built up some forces, I took over
  the small GDI "base" in the middle of the map that had two silos.  Cool,
  I thought, free money (well, $500 free money).  Turns out I didn't know
  how good this deal was going to be for me.  After I sold the silos, the
  computer BUILT NEW ONES!  IN THE SAME PLACE!  Each time I was clearing
  over $2000 for these silos and the tiberium in them.  

  And the computer kept rebuilding them!

  This explains why the computer never attacked, it was giving all
  it's money to me.

- Lastly, I found another mini "base" in the SE corner with contruction yard.
  Three Medium tanks blow away the single guard tower, and now I can build GDI
  stuff.  I've got tons of money from my UNMOLESTED harvesters, not to mention
  the "donations" GDI is giving me (see above).  Guess what I build: Mammoth
  tanks and attack helicopters.

Not much of a battle after that.  The GDI bases were practically deserted.

If I had been able to use the temple's nukes, it would have been even
easier.
