Osama Bin Laden, flanked on the right by military commander Massoud, on the left by top advisor al-Zawahiri, appeared on international Al-Jazeera television today to issue an ultimatum to various governments.



"The past weeks have been great fatahs [victories] for Islam and al-Qaeda. We took the war and the fear to the camps of our enemies. The civilians of our enemies learned the fear that burns in the hearts of many Arabs today.
Today, our ultimatum is issued to the infidel.


Feazanthia: You have issued a challenge, and failed to materialize. This is called cowardice. Remove your condemnal of al-Qaeda, or show what you are made of. If you choose to continue issuing hollow threats, our mujihadeen will fill them for you.

Kikoskriat: Your position is much the same as Feazanthia. Heed their advice well. Your mockery of al-Qaeda's might will be dispelled soon enough.

Al-Anbar: Saddam Hussein, your reign of tyranny over the people of Iraq and Syria must be ended. You have had only a taste of what al-Qaeda can do. Fail to comply will result in more pieces of your reign destroyed.

America: Remove your forces from the Holy Land; remove your support from Israel.

Pakistan: Stop supporting the infidel. Your army will soon feel our might should you fail to comply.

Fluffywuffy: Your condemnation of al-Qaeda's jihad must be withdrawn.



I believe all of the infidel nations are aware of the consequences of defying al-Qaeda. Allah Akbar!

"no."

How can you afford so much weapons, and have that many attacks since your such a small nation?

Scellia offers support for all nations opposing these people, as an aethist nation Scellia doesn't care about a persons religon. It is their own business, but it just gets pathetic when you get hypocritical religons that continually contradict themselves. Mainly terrorists using a religon THAT DOESN"T SUPPORT TERRORISM!

OOC: Bring it on.

IC

The mighty nation of the Freethinkers condemns all terrorists and all those who seek political gain by acts of brutality and horror.

We will provide support to whoever wishes to destroy this scum, and we will quite clearly make our intentions known. Attack us, and by the time we finish with you, you and your followers will get to know precisely what happens to people like you on judgement day.

OOC: I dont have anywhere near enough capacity to to do a conventional war with all these nations. It is half-symbolic. Dontgoneearthere, I dont RP with space tech nations, so....

IC


Your refusals speak volumes. I only hope your citizens echo your sympathies. As for your 'support', NOTHING has materialized so far to hamper al-Qaeda's efforts. Yours are nations of cowards.

Don't even try.

OOC: To whom were you replying to IC character, me or The Freethinkers?

The four militants were completely calm as they pulled off a one-time border sneak into Freethinker territory. Driving their inconspicuous car to the most populated area they could find was not a problem. Immediately they pulled out their prized weapon: an Kalashnikov they had got off a killed Russian. Moving their jeep closer and closer to the Freethinker mall , they immediately sprung into action. The Ak-47 tac tac tac went off as they crashed their car into the mall, bullets spraying into civilians around. They lept out just as the truck went careening through the store, finally exploding with the relatively small amount of TNT in it. They continued fire, their AK-47s going off until huge numbers of police overwhelmed them. All around them, dead or injured people lay moaning for help.

OOC: I was replying to everyone that refused the ultimatum.

The Senate of Tyrandis merely chuckles at these empty threats, as Al-Qaeda's infastructure and manpower have been virtually wiped out by airstrikes by other nations. We have authorized the deployment of the 83rd Air Assault Division against the terrorist network. After they have completed slaughtering your jihadis by the thousand, they can wipe the sweat from their brows with the towelettes you pathetic fools wear.

Also, we will broadcast the resulting carnage on live television, and will sell commercial-free tapes of the program for free.

Don't bother trying to attack our citizenry, as all citizens are barcoded and any human attempting to enter our borders w/o a ID code is immediately executed with extreme prejudice.

Yours derisively,
Marcus Wesson, Director of Foreign Affairs

The government and the people of The Allied States of The Irish Isle, having lived through years of terrorist attacks and rebel uprisings, not only denounces but vow to crush any terrorist activity in our country or the world. Terrorist organizations, such as al-Qaeda, are at the top of our enemy list as well as any person or country that supports them. Therefore, the Allied States of the Irish Isle pledge our armed forces to combat terrorism and those people and countries that support it and also pledge to aid those countries combating terrorism in any way we can.

The King picks himself off the throne room floor, having fallen from his throne in a fit of uncontrollable laughter.

"Send them a basket of fruit. I needed a good laugh right about now" he said, turning to his Chief Advisor. "Make a note on it too, reminding them not to dabble in world affairs with nations hundreds of times their size."

Scene: Random middle class home in the suburbs of Kirkhill (Capitol of Crookfur)

Mr Stewart was relaxing with the paper after a hard day at the office, he was looking forward to spending some quaility time with the infamous Herald crossword and seeing what twisted clues the writers had gone for today, but one of the head lines grabbed his attention

RANDOM INEFFECTUAL TERRORIST NATION MAKES THE USUAL THREATS

"hhmmm," he though as he read the article "another one of these vague islamic inspired terrorist nations, don't any of these silly natiosn realise that state sponsored terrorism is pretty much a blantant Cassus Belli these days or that such a regeime is actually totally incapble of running soemthign apraoching a decent country? ah well, someone is sure to nuke them soon, perhaps i should have a word with my MP about having a marine divisional squadron swing by that way". Finally bored with the matter Mr Stewart turns to the crossword and gets stuck in.

"5 down: A Lama, not a nuke, with bells. 6 letters, hmmm."

The Scellian government would have released a very outraged statement, but the intern who gave the last message was promoted out of the basement and can't find the time to respond.

OOC: I'm both future and modern.

IC:
"Well, al-Qaeda..." Ryan, the Secretary of State murmered and snickered. "I'd better send back a message."

The Imperial Republic of Coreworlds heartly condemns this series of terrible attacks, and we throw your foolish ultimatium back in your faces. Be warned, al-Qaeda, for the hour draws near that will result in your destruction...
Our citizens are all armed with various weapons, so better not try us.
-State Department response

Meanwhile, the armed forces has been raised to Defcon 3, just in case.

OOC: Now, generally, there is no way in hell that could have happened. Aside from the fact the Freethinkers live on a seperate island, all cars incoming are checked (thanks to heightened security whilst building the Doujin) and most likely, you would not be allowed in a car that close to a mall anyway. Nonetheless, Ill let that attack stand, simply because I want a quick but good RP. But keep your attacks relatively realistic from now on. But security and prevention are strnger in the Freethinkers than in the current US, please remember that.

....."Eight people confirmed dead....dozens injured, widespread panic...choas, blood everywhere, people running all..."
The PM turned the TV off, cutting the image and sound dead, and turned to address the table of seated suits and military top brass at the long table in front of him. All looked somber, all looked depressed.
The PM looked at each of them, then sighed and looked down at his own shaking hands.
"Who is responsible?"
"Has all the hallmarks of Al-Queada fundementalists, possibly after your speech yesterday." The speaker was a woman, Amanda Harton, Minister of Intelligence. Her short black hair and small eyes filled the PM's vision. Her worried face echoed his own.
"How did they..I mean...security..."
"Was unlucky, I will investigate, of course." The PM nodded.
"Retaliation?"
"Whatever network they had has now disbanded, as far as we can tell, there will be no more attacks for a while, at least until they try to get back into the country." The PM nodded again, and turned to the man bedecked in a uniform so laden in medals it jingled slightly with every breath.
"And, General Robertson?"
"Full recall....we've decided the best bet is full military retaliation against all known bases. The first battlegroup has been put on standby, and Ive called up the Pathfinders and the Foreign Expeditionary Force." The PM grinned slightly, black humor. Anyone who knew these forces would know why.

OOC: Ah, got it. Attacks will be more realistic. However, I really wish nations would make their security realistic. I mean, really, giving heavy weapons to every citizen in the nation? That's a crock of crap. Goes for everyone else, like Tyranis.

Hattia condemns any group that uses terrorism to gain it's objectives. We are detaining all known members of Al-Qaeda inside Hattia's borders. We also send our condolences to the Freethinkers.

OOC: Now, weapons ownership in Hattia is compulsory (generally people carry pistols, except in the more dangerous north, were it isn't uncommon to see people with AKs walking down the street), it is an issue you know. Of course, citizens will generally try to run first.

Could everyone with reasonable security (IE not "EVERY CITIZEN HAZ BUZOOOKA!!!!!1 or WWE SHOOT EVERY1 COOMING N!!111) please applaud themselves for their RP skills.



al-Farooq and his six comrades had an extremely difficult time making it through Hattian security, thanks to the rise in security measures after al-Qaeda attacks had hit major nations. However, due to his and his friends ethnic makeup (White, blond hair, blue eyes), they were let past while the guard was preoccupied with an Arab who probably was innocent. They moved quickly to their preordained location, where they acquired the weapons from personnnel who had been in Hattia for many times and, obviously, had many guns at their disposal. The explosives had been brought in with them. They drove the C3/TNT loaded truck into a govermental facility outside one of the cities. When security personnel asked for their proper identification, they revved up the gas, while one of the members gunned the guards down with an Uzi. The truck got close enough before being shot down where the massive explosion affecte approximately half the building. Allah Akbar were his last words.

OOC: I'd like to congratulate you Al Qaeda, you seem to be one of the few decent terrorist RPers...

Ministry of Interior: Severnaya

Director Morozov was at his desk, filling out some obscure form that was required to keep the massive bureacracy that was the Hattian government running. He heard gunshots outside of the building. He stood up and looked outside, and was greeted with the sight of a truck speeding straight at his office. "Damn!" he made a run for the door. He heard the distinctive sound of an RPG being fired and then a huge explosion. The shockwave picked him up and flung him through the nearby wall and into a metal blast door. He tried to get up, but his body was broken. He layed back down and blacked out...

OOC: Not uncommon to see citizens with swords (bokuto for kids; katana for adults) or guns (pistols) walking around.
Security...future tech version: Jedi, strong military, Imperial powers and space distance helps.

Modern...Coreworlds has a tight network of well-trained and integrated border defense, from Coast Guard to Customs and not much gets past their scrutinizing eyes and bomb-sniffers.

We will launch a Nuclear Warhead at your nation if you do not stop attacking other nations!

OOC: For the fiftieth time, I dont have a fixed 'nation'. Nuking a single terrorist camp would be like sending millions of men to track down three.




CoreWorlds border


Captain Nader ul-Haq slowly moved his line of trucks towards a customs area. He contemplated simply slamming straight through it and hoping for the best, but decided he may as well try to get through undetected as an attempt. The former approach should be used in the case of discovery. He moved up his convoy and awaited questioning and inspections.

Little did ul-Haq know he was part of an al-Qaeda ruse.

"In response to this idle threat to random nations,our Lord Admiral reportedly laughed.In other news..."

A cave in the middle of ???



Osama Bin Laden looked from General Massoud to advisor al-Zawahiri.

"So, they ignore us, do they?"
"Some nations make threats", Massoud piped up, "but nothing has yet to materialize."
"This is good. Al-Zawahiri, do you think an attack likely?"
"Sir, a small assault is likely, but most of the nation's have scorn for us and do not take al-Qaeda seriously, despite our attacks. Some of their security measures are pretty extravagant."
"Very well. The attacks on ??? and ??? shall continue as planned. Massoud, ready the forces in ??? for a possible defense. These mocking fools will see what a true mujihadeen can do."
"Of course, Sheikh."

I propose an alliance between Islamic Jihad and Al Qaeda.

"Halt!" A customs officer ordered. "State your business here."
If the man looked around his truck, he would notice dogs and yes, rats sniffing around the truck for bomb chemicals as well as drugs (if any).

OOC:
If they find anything, say so. If not, pass through.

:twisted: DIE

OOC: Bomb chemicals? Would these be included in TNT (all ul-Haq is equipped with)? He does not have any drugs. Islamic Jihad, you have to prove yourself before engaging in alliance with al-Qaeda. IE good RP of terrorist attacks. I think I set off a chain reaction of 5 million people half-bit terrorist groups.
IC



The rats and dogs began sniffing the convoy surrepticiously, but ul-Haq was trained and he maintained a straight face, not showing an inch of concern as they slowly approached the last truck.

In response to high levels of terrorist actions in the last several days, the USN is going to take the following measures:
1)Terror Alert to Level 4(of a 5 level system)
2) All miltary bases to FPCON Charlie(Force Protection 3 the highest of a 3 level system)
3)Air Dominance is established over homeland airspace.
4)USN Naval forces are deployed in a picket line across USN waters.
5)Borders are closed except for 2 checkpoints; one in the east, a port city so shipping can continue, and one in the west a border checkpoint. 200 troops have been dedicated to defense of the WestBorder Checkpoint. Light infantry troops. EastBorder Checkpoint has a 100 Marines with 3 frigates and 10 light attack boats supportting.
6) The rest of the border is watched via J-Star and AWACS. AH-64 Apaches fly patrol along the border

As to not alarm the people AAA and SAM sites have not been set up in cities except for the capital. Mobile sites are set in the countryside.

Responses from both people fighting over the throne:

Ryo-Tan:

"If only my heretic brother didn't betray God, I would be hunting out every member of your pitiful organization. God does not want you to kill his own people. You should only kill if you have no choice. You wait. The moment I am back on the throne, I will hunt you down, and kill you, personally."


Braq:

"Your threats are fruitless. Even if you could get to us, even if you did kill, even if 3 dozen innocents fell to your gangsters, it wouldn't matter. I have hundreds of millions, even billions, of supporters, and we will just simply kill you. You are a bug, a moth, a minor annoyance. Nothing more."

OOC:
I suspect so. It IS a bomb chemical, is it not?

IC:
The dogs and rats began reacting a positive way to ul-Haq's truck.
"Uh, sir? Will you please step out of the truck?" The officer asked kindly.

OOC: I like how you roleplay; just not how you seem to be able to smuggle weapons easily...being white doesn't enable you to get past security with Uzi's and bombs...but oh well, much better than the terrorists of a month ago...remember them Hattia?

Semi-OOC: What countries are you operating in?

OOC: Minor bases are in basically every major country in the planet. The largest concentration is in southeast Afghanistan. Second largest is in Sudan. Third largest is in Yemen. Besides these, there is an al-Qaeda cell in just about every country.

ul-Haq's completely calm face was intact as he stepped out of the first track, but with a swift word in Arabic to his friend in the other side, all hell broke loose. He pulled out a powerful pistol from his robes and shot the officer looking at him in the head. Immediately al-Qaeda operatives pulled the AK-47s out and engaged police as all the trucks revved up and surged forward, regardless of obstacles in the way. ul-Haq was, of course, gunned down, but not before his expertly trained hand fired off many shots.

About 20 officers and 15 civilians were killed in the battle, and the trucks had demolished several cars, causing nearly 500,000 credits in damage. This was not a good day, not a good one at all.

CNN (Core News Network) News Alert!
"A tragedy has occurred in our northern Customs border." Terry Willams reported. "Over 30 people have been killed, and another 20 injured in what seems to be an attack by terrorists. No word on who claims responsibility yet. This is Terry Williams, reporting live on CNN!"

OOC: Keep in mind the trucks were loaded with TNT, a pretty big explosion would happen. Eh, my second failed operation. I will have to try getting into CoreWorlds again sometime.
IC


Military Commander of al-Qaeda, Massoud, issued a statement saying that more attacks "like the ones we accomplished in the infidel nation of CoreWorls" were already underway. In scathing Arabic he mocked the nations that promised retaliation and did nothing.
Meanwhile, a group of former Taliban and al-Qaeda militants destroyed a Hindu village in Pakistan with a concerted strike of approximately fifty soldiers. Apparently, al-Qaeda's new conventional warfare approach was paying off.

IC:
A massive explosion blew up the customs area, increasing the death toll to over 100 and the anger level of the citizens to damned near the boiling point. Fire trucks howled to the scene and started putting out the fires.
I paced back and forth, trying to decide what to do. "So the think that we don't retaliate, eh? Yusuke, what assets do we have in the Indian Ocean?"

"Well, we have the Firestorm carrier group doing maneuvers with the US Abraham Lincoln group. Recommend we use them."

"Very well. Spin them up, and have them search for targets in that area."

"Right away!"

Aboard the Firestorm, pilots ran to their fighters and readied to unleash their anger and bombs on the terrorist camps in the mountains. A squadron of F/A-18 Super Hornets lifted off and headed towards the mountains. A satellite was pushed to the area to give further targeting details for the attack fighters.

OOC: I dont understand. I used no future tech. Also, knowing where to strike is a pretty monumental task. If you assume al-Qaeda's main leaders are in Afghanistan (which is discernable), then you have an entire nation in which to look.
IC

As news of the obvious CoreWorld counterstrike approached. Caves were sealed and bunkers reinforced as the entire leadership of the al-Qaeda network.

However, in the main terrorist training camps, al-Qaeda geared up for a counter-assault on the planes flying in. Numerous anti-aircraft weapons, including Stinger weapons acquired through American funding to mujihadeen in the Soviet War. These missiles were mounted as various other anti-aircraft guns and missiles were loaded. The first REAL threat was approaching, and al-Qaeda would deal with it.

The Empire of Layarteb issues a boot to the ass of al-Qaida and their cowardly ways.

al-Qaeda issues an equally large and steel-toed boot in the ass to Israel, Iraq, Pakistan, and various nations of the anti-Islam coalition for their cowardly ways.

IC:
The F/A-18s found themselves under ack-ack assault, and dropped missiles and bombs where the camps were suspected to be. One fighter was hit and the pilot tried to crash into a camp. The others, seeing their job done, mourned their comrade and flew back to the carrier.

A 8 man SARTF team will be dropped off in southern Afganistan, with full body armour and Force Warrior systems. Satellite coverage is highly exceptional, with ready support from the CW fleet. The team dropped in by HALO from a C-240.

They will then move up into the mountains and scout out any cave entrences and bunkers and the like. They will then mark the positions with a special paint which is like a giant beacon for planes, and is yet very hard to see visually.

Please bomb something in my nation because I need a good excuse for killing innocent people in your country.
