Port Yuko, Bonstock- Recently, after Abu-Dhabi Kristatata took over the Middle East, a large wave of Muslim oil barons, all with connections in Bonstock, have moved to Bonstock.

Unlike expectations, however, they are not intigrating with mainstream Bonstocknian society, instead liveing like pashas in mansions outside Port Yuko, surrounded by servants and armed guards.

Meanwhile, they have bought into most everything they can get their hands on. Many have bought land in the countryside on which they build thier mansions, and then get tenent farmers to farm their property. Others are inflating demand on the Stock Exchange. Bonstoil Corporation, Bonstock's leading oil firm, has quadrupled in value. Many other bluchip stocks, like the Bank of Bonstock, are also experiencing large rises in price thanks to their demand.

They live secluded in their mansions, while building mousques all over, trying to subdue the population through thier religion in the traditionaly athiest Bonstock.

This is especially prevelent in thier farming communities. They have been attracting many Bonstocknians to work in their fields, given low rents and promise of a peaceful country life where they can be one with nature. This seems to have caused a trand of counter urbaniazation in Bonstock. Still, most of the farmers keep in close contact via the internet, on of the main free outlets in Bonstock.

However, many of the landowners are calling for "internet reform," banning internet pornography and anti-government websites, unheard of in Bonstock, even when President Hu Li maintains somewhat authoritarian power, supported by the Bonstocknian Special Service, of BSS.

Some resentment among poor Bonstocknians is brewing. They feel that Bonstock is being taken away by the new arrivals. One man is quoted as saying "They are only trying to take Bonstock as thier own."

This resentment seems to account for a new resurgance of the communist People's Council on Bonstocknian Liberation, or PCBL. Near a Muslim community yesturday, graffiti showing a Soviet flag and the message "Communism will Free Bonstock from the new rulers. Workers of Bonstock, unite!" Also apparant has been a surge of grafitti showing swastikas, with messages similar to the communists.

Among the government, this has caused concern. Trying not to take sides, President Hu Li has tried to cool tensions, trying to focus attention on the growing economy.

The BSS, meanwhile, has remained quiet. Unlike itself, it seems to not be kidnapping random communist sypathizers and sending them to Svea Riga to work the rest of thier lives, but is instead waiting, watching to see what will happen.

Indeed, what will happen is a question many Bonstocknians are asking right now. Could this be a new plunge to anarchy? Will PCBL join forces with the Nazis in a hate campaign? Will the government become irrelevent?

For Bonstock's sake, we hope that this does not.

ooc: This is a somewhat planned RP. Go ahead and get involved, but no future tech, no godmodding, only serious RP. And try diplomacy first.

Revolutionary Training Compound (remote location in Sandlewood)
People’s Commander Max Forrester looked over the reports from Bonstock, the People’s Council for Bonstockian Liberation made their first strikes against the capitalist pigs. “So it starts,” he said to no one.

Looking his window, several trucks were headed out of the compound towards the docks. Seven trucks full of supplies for the PCBL; machine guns, grenades, explosives and rockets. After months of training, various operational cells were starting their attacks. Soon they would unleash their full fury at those capitalist pigs, he thought, and then we’ll see what the world thinks.

Port Yuko, Bonstock
Political Officer Carett had a fairly easy time getting in Bonstock, the customs agency could not help themselves but to “trust” a young, innocent, beautiful girl. It help that she dress the part, men were so easily distracted when forgetting to look above the her neck.

Since then she has been keeping a low profile, busy with organizing the PCBL into a true revolutionary force. Aside from organizing a Popular Front, a political group to distribute propaganda and demonize the capitalists for what they were, she was extremely focused organizing the various cells that would truly carry out the revolution.

Observation cells to monitor various targets and collect intelligence, planning cells to develop attack plans, operation cells that would carry out attacks and raids, and finally, there were assault cells to train, arm and prepare for when Bonstock was ripe for the revolution.

Arms, supplies and trained revolutionaries have been flowing in for months.

Port Yuko, Bonstock
3:35AM local time: a bomb blast shattered the still night, its fireball could be seen from a mile away. The office that once housed the Open Press, a small liberal paper, was gone.

3:43AM local time: a call came in the Pork Yuko Police Headquarters, the caller played a recorded message from Bonstockian Defense League. The BDF claimed responsibility for the attack, stating that the Open Press was communist front and they would not rest until all communists, socialist and liberal forces in Bonstock were destroyed.

4:13AM local time: Political Officer Carett was pleased with the incoming reports and news. The operation had been a success. It had taken a while for the BCBL to understand the reason behind the plan to bomb the Open Press, but now it doesn’t matter. It has been done. Soon the public will question the right-wing forces tactics and reasons, and when their authoritarian government provides half-truths and lies, where will they turn, the PCBL!

BSS and PYPD (Port Yuko Police Department) immidiatly began to investigate the bombing. They combed the area for evidence, and tried to dicern who it was who talked on the tape. Who was this Bonstocknian Defence League? What did they want? Was it an Islamic organization, or could it be PCBL themselves, plotting to blame capitalists for the bombing.
