Since we are well aware that any attempt to aid NWV against the Christian Martyrs' Brigade will result in reprisal attacks, the borders of DPUO are now closed, effective immediately, to any nation or product from any nation not allied with us and known not to back terrorism in any way. Any persons attempting violating the border will be shot on sight. Ports are also closed on the same conditions as the borders. All commercial aircraft will be escorted to and from their destinations by military aircraft, and all inbound cargo will be checked extremely thoroughly, i.e. any machines totally dismantled, grain shipmens checked, basically anything packed opened, dismantled, analysed, and sent to its' destination. The People's Choice Party (the main opposition) has begun sending out militia tems to enforce this, for which we are very grateful.

Welcome to my nation on a regular day!

We've been shooting people along our borders for 20 years!

You need 6 different pass cards just to enter the nation, you need to be searched before entering, exiting a city, town, village. You need to be searched before crossing county lines, province lines, national borders etc.


Police State 2004. :)

I imagine your citizens don't take all that many vacations.

I imagine your citizens don't take all that many vacations.

Our typical citizen takes about 20-30 days of vacation per year. Of which about 10 will be sent in other parts of the territory they are in. And the rest are typically spent in another CM territory or in another land.


We have a large commercial air business.


We are just very strict about who we let in and out of our nation.

Foreigners are only allowed into ITD if a citizen vouches for them and pays a fee of 100 credits. Only 1/10th the population are citizens because citizens must descend from the 9th tribe (of which our Emperor is the head of). Non-citizens must request travel permissions 3 months prior, and must then pay a fee of 150 credits.

Border guards are permitted to search non-citizens at anytime, but must attain permission if they wish to search citizens. Any civilian may join the armed forces, but only citizens may join our special government force.

I.D. consists of barcodes and retinal scans. Citizens are given cards to carry; non-citizens have microchips inplanted, which contain their vital information.

As you can imagine, travel is very lucrative to the nation.

All DPUO citizens abroad are advised to return home immediately. Spetznaz battalions are being lifted to Embassies.

LOL Yeah our borders are held pretty tightly as well. And guess what if you don't have proper ID or we suspect you are a spy? Yeah you are NEVER seen again!

Isolationism is not a bad thing!

Well, do I count as a friend or ally? You've known me a while. Not well, but you've known me. Just checking, so I know wether of not to send units and ships to help you strengthen the border, etc.

OOC: I've...known you? Have I? Lol. If so then who are you? You aren't from Anubis by any chance?

DontPissUsOff, Itinerate Tree Dweller, Layarteb, and Communist Mississippi citizens and goods are still quite welcome within the Kingdom of Weyr. As always, Weyr cannot be held responsible for the safety of any foreign diplomats or nationals who choose to travel without Diplomatic Service escort. As always we do preffer if you have some sort of identification with you when entering the Kingdom of Weyr, although no such identification is necessary for entry or departure.

Airlines and other travel services reserve the right to enforce their own rules as to carrying weapons and goods on board.

Sincerely,
Consul-General J. W. Gibbs

OOC: There's a reason Weyr has an 'anarchy' rating.

OOC: Heh. BTW, I meant to get back to you about the Air Defence Systems. I posted a price if you're interested, scaleable of course.

When news of the air movements of Spetznatz to the DPUO embassies in Angola, Libya, and Mississippian Egypt arrived in the colonies, the people took up arms. 80,000 armed white gunmen have surrounded the DPUO embassy in Tripoli and were rumored to be readying to storm it.

Many of the citizens were wearing CMB uniforms. There were also about 40 T-98 tanks in positions around the embassy.

The colonial government in Libya has declared, "We will not interfere in the rights of our people to peacefully assemble."


CM acting Premier Joseph Mladic declared, "It shall be the policy of this nation to regard any missile, launched from DPUO or any of its client states against any CM possession or ally, as an attack, by DPUO upon Mississippi herself. Requiring a full retaliatory response."




The colonial government in Angola have deployed soldiers and troops in a perimeter around the DPUO embassy and have declared nobody may bring a weapon within 1/2 mile of the embassy.


The colonial government in Mississippian Egypt has deployed tanks around the DPUO embassy and enacted a "No-go" zone around the DPUO embassy. Declaring the DPUO Embassy and 1/4 mile around it as off-limits to anybody who has a weapon.


Governor-General Westcott of Libya has refused to order the Colonial Armed Forces or the police to disperse the gunmen surrounding the DPUO embassy. CM Army High Command has also yet to issue orders to the CM Army garrison of Libya to do anything about the gunmen.

Official response:

"Let them through or you will be eliminated. Yours with genuine apologies for your impending violent slaughter, M. Jones."

Meanwhile a division of Tu-160Bs and a regiment of Tu-22M7P jammers loaded AS-15 and AS-6B cruise missiles.

OOC: I've...known you? Have I? Lol. If so then who are you? You aren't from Anubis by any chance?
OOC: Nah. I'm just an old Jan 03 nation with 3 billion pop. At least, I thought you knew me. I knew Dontgonearthere. What happened to him?

Official response:

"Let them through or you will be eliminated. Yours with genuine apologies for your impending violent slaughter, M. Jones

To: DPUO "Commie scum"
From: His Excellency the Governor-General Franklin Westcott of Libya.


Dear "Sir",
It has come to my attention that you are foolishly attempting to interfere in a situation where you have no cause to do so. This situation will blow over in a day or so when the heavy rains come and people realize they don't have umbrellas. I have lost two brothers, both paratroopers, in Hogsweat. I'm not going to play games with you. If my citizens wish to shoot the hell out of your embassy, you should have though of that before you backed the guerillas that destroyed our parachute divisions.

Yours in Christ,
GG Franklin Westcott




To: DPUO Leader:
From: Acting Premier Joseph Mladic:

Dear Sir,
Governor Westcott does not speak for this nation or this government. As you have seen, the governors of Mississippian Egypt and Angola have both taken measures to help protect your citizens. I will see to it that your people in Libya get out safely. Fear not, we'll not allow anything to happen to your people.

Sincerely Joseph Mladic.

OOC: Oh, he's still kicking about I think; I'm sure he posted something not too long ago.

The single DPUO spy left in Libya reported that, "It appears the CM army units are readying to disperse the crowds gathered around our embassy. It looks like they're ready to use force if necessary."

General Westcott (IF you are really that rank; it seems more likely you could barely make corporal), please bear in mind that if we wish to keep our people safe we are certainly able to do it, and neither you nor your pathetic excuse for a colonial military force can do a damned thing about it. If our people are not safe within 36 hours you will most certainly regret your inaction, as will you regret your nation's inability to stay out of the affairs of those it deems "inferior." You should consider yourselves fortunate that we did not employ chemicals or WP upon your paratroops, and that we did not supply the enemy with truly advanced weaponry for his use. You should equally consider yourself fortunate that we have not yet decided to let our military flex its' muscle against you, which I am told much of it is itching to do. Do not raise our wrath, Westcott.

Mr. Mladic, you will make sure our people are safe and you WILL cease your blatant support for these terrorists. Our people tire of being patient with a nation that is so obviously committed to the destruction of ours, and of our freedoms. Make no mistake, Mladic, this is not a threat, it is a warning.

We strongly condemn the actions of DontPissUsOff, and recommends them to suspend their 'no-man's zone'.

OOC: Oh, he's still kicking about I think; I'm sure he posted something not too long ago.
OOC: Should I take that as "not allied"? If so, we should try setting something up. Your nation is at least old enough for me to remember. And I haven't played for a couple months before last thursday.

Westcott's reply, "I worked tirelessly to get to where I am today. I have earned the rank of Governor-General. And I will NOT! Standby and allow communist trash to insult me. It is time we end you once and for all. Even if it means we too must die, for we will be with God today, and you will be in hell. God will protect us and grant us eternal life. God Is Great!"

Satellites revealed that Governor Westcott ordered all B-52s to "Code H" (They will leave their bases in Libya and then head for their targets in DPUO, they will not break radio silence and will not accept any message unless it is preceded by a code. He also ordered the Libyan Air Force to fly cover for the B-52s


Joseph Mladic was watching a screen showing bomber movements. He spit his wine out and said, "What the hell is going on! I didn't order a nuclear strike, God no! Damnit, recall those bombers now!" He was told that they were unable to raise the bombers; they didn't know the code that would have to precede the message.

Governor Westcott addressed the entire colonial military and put them off full alert. He declared, "The enemy will be coming at us shortly, they will likely be Spetznatz, wearing CM Army uniforms and speaking perfect English with Mississippian accents. Do not be swayed by their deceitful tricks. Shoot anybody who isn't in your own unit. Trust nobody!"

Mladic issues orders that all CM Army units in Libya should make it their goal to get to the Central Colonial Command and apprehend Governor Westcott.


Westcott was in his office talking to an aide. The aide said, "Sir, is it really wise to be running such exercises that will take our bombers into the heart of DPUO?"

Westcott replied, "Oh! This is no exercise! This is the end! It's over! It's over! God Is Great! It's over! God's side wins!" He started to laugh uncontrollably. "God Is Great! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

The aide said, "Why surely general you can't be serious. Can you?"

The general just kept repeating, "God Is Great! God Is Great! God Is Great! It's over! It's over! No more deals with the reds! God Is Great! It's over!"

Occ- In the event you didn't realize it, Governor-General Westcott is quite insane.


Mladic looked at the screen, about 12 hours until the bombers got to their targets.

He picked up the phone, "Get me the leader of DPUO, it's an emergency."

At about that same time the DPUO leader had received word that 50 B-52s had left their bases in Libya and then had been lost bit they appeared to have been heading for DPUO.


Mladic was on the line with the DPUO leader, "Hello, there's a bit of a problem. Governor Westcott has done something you might find funny. Well probably not. Well what he's done see, is he's ordered Libya into full lock-down, he's ordered all colonial soldiers to consider anybody not a colonial soldier as an enemy, but that's not all. He's ordered 50 B-52s to hit targets in your nation. I'd like to attempt to raise the bombers on radio. I suggest we try that for a few hours, if then it doesn't work, we'll help you shoot the bombers down."


In the CM Air Command Mississippi and the CM Air Command Libya, the officers were desperately going through every possible combination that could be the three letter code needed to precede the message needing to be sent to recall the bombers.

CM air units in Egypt were ordered to intercept the bombers and order them to turn back or else. 200 F-16s and 50 MiG-31s took off from bases in Egypt to move rapidly to intercept the 50 B-52s.


Governor-General John Stahlecker of Mississippian Egypt attempted to phone Westcott but nobody answered. He decided to drop the 1st Egytpian Colonial Parachute Brigade at Central Colonial Command about 12 miles outside of Tripoli.

DPUO satellites detected C-130s leaving Egypt headed for Libya.

Occ- DPUO, how is this for a cold war style standoff? If we resolve it properly, it would make us on much friendlier terms, yes?

"WHAT?!" bellowed Marcus Jones as he exited his bedroom dressed only in underpants and dressing gown at about 20 miles per hour. "THEY DID WHAT?!" He leapt down the stairs into his office and called up a projection. Sure enough, the B-52s were coming in. Anywhere within 1,500Km was the danger zone for cruise missiles. He yanked up a large red telephone and spoke tersely to his Air Chief Marshals.

All around the nation, the Air Force went beserk. SAM batteries and control radars lit off, fighters and interceptors moved to CAPs. A Division (n.b. that's 10 regiments, or 240 aircraft) of MiG-31M2s raced out toward the incoming bombers, their pilots sweating, the R-37B missiles beneath them gleaming like new. Pursued by Tu-22M7Ps jammer aircraft, the MiGs closed hard on their targets, illuminating and locking up the bombers at extreme range. Firing orders would be necessary until the bombers crossed the damger line, from which they were now 190 Km away.

"Mladic," breathed Jones in a voice low with rage, "get those bombers back now or we will nail them, and then we will nail you!"

Mladic was almost crying, "We're trying to get ahold of the base, Westcott appears to have gone crazy, he kept repeating "God Is Great", he thinks he's going to martyr the entire world. A parachute brigade from Egypt is on their way to the base. We estimate it's still 10 hours until the bombers are inside DPUO and at their targets. But we're not sure what they're armed with."

"I...don't...care what they're armed with!" he hissed through gritted teeth. "This is one step too far. You support and promote the CMB, you relentlessly oppress anything in your path, this we can just about tolerate. But this is too far. Those bombers will be going home in 2 hours. Two. Or their crews will go home in body bags!"

Out to sea, the MiGs patrolled in their circles, waiting for firing orders, always tracking the B-52s with at least 10 radars, as IL-78M2 tankers refuelled them.

Out to sea, the MiGs patrolled in their circles, waiting for firing orders, always tracking the B-52s with at least 10 radars, as IL-78M2 tankers refuelled them.


Mladic: "I don't have control over these bombers, I can't get them to turn around. They're on Code H, they won't receive any message unless it's preceded by a three letter code. I don't know what it is, only Westcott knows the code. I've sent a parachute brigade to detain him. They should be getting there shortly."


At about that time the B-52s executed their radar evasion maneuvers, they dropped to treetop heights as they moved over the hills and mountains of Greece (further hindering radar)

Westcott was in his command base yelling, "God Is Great! God Is Great!"

Parachute units were sighted approaching the base.

As the parachute units approached the base, the defenders of the base shouted, "They're our vehicles, they're Egyptian Colonials!" Then a new recruit, a private shouted, "No it's Spetznatz! Fire" and he let loose with his M-240. The other soldiers joined in. Hummers went up in balls of flames. Parachute soldiers ran for cover as they came under fire from the base defenders.

"Control, targets are moving low. No loss yet." The MiG-31M2 was equipped with the powerful Flash Dance-II look-down/shoot-down radar, designed specifically to catch aircraft flying tow to evade radar. Such a large target as a B-52 was easy for them to detect. 24 of the MiGs pulled out of their cruising turns and split to either side of the bombers, their radars maintaining lock without difficulty despite the low altitude. SBI-16 could track cruise missiles; a B-52 was easy. Meanwhile SSBNs began to cruise upward slowly to their launch depths. ICBMs were made ready in their silos.

"You have 100 minutes, Mladic."

Outside the base the parachute units were attempting to fight their way into the base. They had used their OICW 20mm grenades to blast more of the defenders back into the buildings. They were rapidly advancing.

Mladic said to the DPUO leader, "We'll need far more than 100 minutes. It's almost 9 hours until they reach their targets. We need more time than 100 minutes."


A conference of generals was arguing in a bunker 800 feet down about 24 miles outside of Jackson City.

(General 1) "If those bombs hit them, they're going to fire at us and wipe us out. If we strike now, we can get a large number of their missiles and submarines neutralized before they know what hit them!"

(General 2) "Are you mad? We can resolve this with diplomacy!"

(General 3) "Before it's too late, shoot down the B-52s, so a few people die, it's better than a nuclear war."

(General 4) "What about the paratroopers at the base in Libya. Are they making any progress?"

Governor John Stahlecker of Mississippian Egypt ordered the all fighter squadrons in Egypt to intercept the B-52s. Governor Westcott ordered all fighter squadrons in Libya to intercept the Egyptian fighters.

The B-52s were now passing over Bulgaria and readying to pass over the Black Sea. 29 of them had managed to give the enemy radar the slip.

Mladic phoned the DPUO leader, "We've dispatched over 1,000 fighters to intercept them. Give us a few more hours."


Over the Mediterranean, the Egyptian fighters were about to meet the Libyan fighters.

There had been 200 Libyan F-16Ds providing cover for the B-52s, they flew off to draw away the MiGs.

"Comrade Prime Minister. The time is fast approaching when we must consider the possibility that all this is a sham by the Fascists to gain them time to launch at us," said Defence Minister Kazakov flatly.
"I've already considered that," replied Jones. "If those bombers so much as twitch we'll blow them apart, correct?"
"Yes."
"Then keep them locked up, and keep our missiles ready."

The paratroopers finally managed to blast their way into the base buildings. They shot the general's door down. Westcott ran into his private study and placed a pistol against his temple and fired.

There were banners all throughout his office proclaiming "God Is Great!"

CM forces sent live video footage of the inside of the general's office to DPUO to prove he was dead. The DPUO team saw the banners, the general, the pistol, the spent casing.

Mladic phoned the DPUO leader, "I know what you're thinking, this is some trick so we can hit you first. But think about, why we would want to hit you with just 50 bombers, it will barely dent you. We've srambled fighters, they're currently fighting Libyan units over the Mediterranean. Westcott is dead, but we can't figure out the 3 letter code, it might stand for something, we're not sure. Something that would have meant something to Westcott."

"I don't know what you think you're playing at, Mladic, but I told you before, either you get those planes home or they die. Yoy have two more hours, and if they look like launching we'll start shooting."

"I don't know what you think you're playing at, Mladic, but I told you before, either you get those planes home or they die. Yoy have two more hours, and if they look like launching we'll start shooting."

Mladic asked him, "Did the general westcott use any phrases talking to you, anything that he might make a 3 letter code stand for?"

"God is Great. Try GIG. Make it quick, Mladic."

"God is Great. Try GIG. Make it quick, Mladic."


Mladic told them to try GIG, It didn't work. But then they tried IGG, it worked.


Mladic phoned the DPUO leader, "IGG worked, it was a variation of GIG. All the bombers are being recalled."


But 2 bombers had been damaged and their communications equipment was out.

The DPUO leader noticed the screen showing 48 of the 50 bombers moving off. But then the other 2 dropped off the screen as they were able to successfully elude radar through tricky maneuvers.

OOC: You do know what the MiG-31 was designed for, right? Finding low-flying US bombers and cruise missiles. A B-52 isn't gonna be that easy to lose on even the old Zaslon, never mind the Zaslon-M radar from the -31M.

IC: The MiGs lost radar contact briefly. A squadron of 12 dived low and quickly relocated their targets. They reported that the B-52s had not yet turned around. Red stars gleaming, the MiGs hurtled on behind, below, above, beside their targets. They were hellbent on killing the threat to their homeland. Each one had locked its' missiles onto the massive bombers, with the weapons operator waiting to launch. All it would take was one word.

"Mladic! Two of your bombers are still heading our way! Recall them or lose them, it's your call. This isn't a game." Jones slammed down the phone as Lucy sat next to him, looking tense, but smiling all the same.

Mladic called the DPUO leader, "I can't get the message to them. I need you to have your pilots flash them morse code ISFNE, they'll know what it means."

"We will make the attempt. Your men will get three chances. If they do not turn around they will be shot down."

The lead MiG-31M2 came slowly alongside a B-52, his weapons operator motioning with a torch and flashing morse code.

The planes received the message ISFNE. And they knew what it meant "I Shall Fear No Evil", it was the codeword that would override any mission and order them to immediately return to base. They did a complete turn about and headed back to Libya.

The red telephone rang again. Marcus looked at it, and then at Lucy, and gripped her hand tightly. Then he picked it up.
"Yes? Yes. The did...they turned around? They..." He sat, speechless, for a moment, and then put the telephone down.
"They turned back," he said to Lucy as a grin spread across his face. "They turned back!"
