Times News

Today in the region called "Les Islandes El Diablo" a cruiseliner was brutally attacked. It seems that paramilitary forces attacked and looted the ship leaving a burning husk floating aimlessly in the surf.

When asked for his stance on the issue, El President Dr Mario of El Jihado gave us this statement:

"We of El Jihado may hava a bit o problema w'la bandito, but w'canna let der actions stain tha good nama de proud nation."

El President has not returned any other requests for comments.

EL Jihado is a south american nation renound for its inability to control crime, large amounts of dirty money move through the area every year. It was thought the area was under control after foreign border skirmishes decimated the paramilitary troops in control of the islands. Where this new organization came from is unknown.

Unconfirmed reports indicate there are pirate bases on the southern islands, El Jihad has not denied these reports.

The Emperor wishes to send assistance to your nation, however, his forces are tied up currently in the support of another nation. As soon as his forces are free to once again, consider it his sincerest promise to assist your nation.

Today in a stunning show of mercy and valor, Alexius Julii sent a message of his intentions to help El Jihado regain its southern islands. El Jihado, being a small xenophobic community is split on the issue. Though there was no missunderstanding the stance the goverment took. Here is a quote from El Presidents speech concerning the possible external intervention.

"We of El Jihado ar warm'd by dis thots of peace. We are hopink that da poweful nations will stand to our sides. We of EL Jihado ar vera proud to be of notice of yours"

We all are standing by to see how this situations turns out.

On a side note, it seems that a police action was attempted in the small city of Narkan this morning, we just recived word that heavily armed bandits held off police long enough to withdraw into the jungles. While they might only be using jeeps and AK-47's they appeared to be well trained and disciplined. 12 police officers were fatally wounded, another 6 are being treated for mild wounds.

We got a statement from the regional chief of police Pedro De'Cruz

"we's not strong to fite them, needs guns and more fiters. No goverment armies here to helping makes trouble. They seem strong in jungle and mabee strongger than we. I hope El President sends help or mabee we not be here next day.

As the situation in El Jihad heats up, everyone is wondering why the govermnment has yet to take action.

As founder of the Space Exiles region, and the individual responsible for protecting these third rate, third world dens of terror, when they were just little refugees, fleeing a crumbling region; I now must scorn their inability to control their nations, and distance the Space Exiles region from their actions. The Space Exiles embassy to your region is now closed!

In an unfortunate yet not unexpected event, the embassy from Space Exiles was shut down today. It seems the recent terrorist actions are scaring other nations away from EL Jihado. The goverment said it will not be turning a blind eye to Space Exiles, but they understand the nations need to protect itself from such violent times.

Fully supportive of the brave government of El Jihado we officially condemn the terror attack on a cruise liner and will not idle if the security situation in El Jihado remains severe. Should El Jihado require any military assistance in tracking down and eliminating these paramilitary forces, Al-Sabir would be willing to offer military support and will immediately mobilize small commando groups to counter this terrorist threat.

As an OMP member obliged to hunt down any sort of pirate scum scourging the world seas, we would also be willing to offer sending naval frigates and patrol and reconnaissance aircraft to annihilate this threat on your southern islands to free trade.

In a daring attack on the larger of the El Jihado southern islands, a large force of terrorists seized and are now holding 2 large uranium mines. There is much speculation as to why they would make a stance in an area like that. El Jihado armed forces were seen converging upon the islands. It seems larger scale conflict is coming.

There has been no reply to our requests for quotes from goverment officals.

We can officially verify that a vast majority of the funds that have been used by these terrorists have orginated from the great nation of Maslawyia. Those in the Royal Maslawyian Cabinet have refused to comment on the situation. Signs point to a series of accounts being found in our nation that seem have been emptying out over the past few days with funds being transfered to El jihado only to find that original account refills with cash.

The source of these funds have not been located.

As the Desciplined and Martial foreign armies began a slow sweep of the southern islands, The nation reacted badly. It seems the general populace is very against outside influence. Large protests were staged in villages and towns across the many islands of the region.

El President yet again refrains from comenting on any of these issues, no one will confirm where his is at the moment.

>>Breaking Story<<

In a strange twist of events, during a rest and resuply stop at one of the peaceful northern islands, one of the foreign tactical submarines was stormed by a small force of paramilitary soldiers. These soldiers seemed cleaner and better trained than the terrorists of late. They took El Jihad citizens as hostages and forced the sub crew off the ship to save the lives of the hostages.

The sub then submerged and hasnt been spotted since.

To: International Community
From: Empire of Fate and Honor

The War Ministry of Fate and Honor has confirmed that the submarine stolen by the terrorist is infact a Imperial Fate and Honor nuclear submarine. Unfortunetly this submarine contained five FH-1 MIRV ICBM's. This stolen submarine is now in the control of roque terrorist, and has the payload to destroy dozens of major cities. This submarine must be found, and captured. The weapons on-board that ship should never be in the hands of such evil men. While we do have safety measures applied to these missiles, it is only a matter of time before they are breached. We call upon the world to secure or destroy this missing submarine. They have deactivated the tracking systems and communication. May God help us all.

In this rash and intense situation, the government is beginning to enforce martial law. They claim it is to keep the populace in check during the now constant firefights with the terrorists. (now considered rebels by government officials) We are sad to announce that this will be our last news story, as the government men are now closing down all non-sanctioned public information centers. We will try and get word out somehow. Before we go offline, here is a list of the situations we are aware of.

> Paramilitary victory in Shankai; This small town was raided yesterday, and is now being fortified by the rebels.

>Rebels Seize Bridge Network; The complicated roadway between islands is under constant attack by rebel forces. So far they hold 20% of the industrial bridge network, they are being held off by our brave military.

>Police Stations Destroyed; In a horrible wave of bombings, 83% of El Jihad Police Infrastructure is in ruins, The estimate in officer casualties is high, We are praying for them all.

>Rebel Camp Dismantled; It seems that military units caught one rebel cell unprepared, as they assaulted the camp; all rebels were shot/captured and executed with no losses to friendly fire.

We leave you with this message from the Government:

"People of El Jihad, Stay in your homes.
Do not take part in the fighting, for either side. Our military is equipped to hunt down and kill all rebel cells. As soon as we get a handle on the bridge skirmishes, we will begin purging.

Stay calm."

In light of the recent news that has appeared it is only fair that the international community is made aware of the true facts of this situation. Our great nation has funded the training of these so called 'terrorists'. Not just this we have also provided them with the essential equipment they need to commence with their activities. Speaking of which these activities are controlled via direct orders from our Intelligence Service HQ.

To answer why for now cannot be done. All will be revealed in due course.

In the newly built Presidental Palace, President Nellis was getting ready to go see his son play in his first hockey game when he was pulled away to meet with his secratary of war!

"What is going on!?" said Nellis

"We have recieved reports that the nation of Maslawyia has been supplying the terrorist in El Jihado!"

"What are our options?"

"Well, we have alreay pledged our support to El Jihado, so I suggest that gather our allies together and blockade Maslawyia."

"Calm down. What do we know about them"

Ummm. Nothing yet but we are looking into it."

"Is this what I pay you for. Look I am going to my sons game and when I come back I want answers!"

"Yes sir!" the man ran off.

President Nellis then left the room and went to the game!

(OOC:Maslawyia would you give me some info on your nation?"

Though, the Space Exiles region has broken off all diplomatic ties with the Les Islandes El Diablo region, our member states have voiced their interest in possible commercial relationships. In war there is opportunity.

We are willing to puchase raw materials from Les Islandes El Diablo for 12 cents on the dollar, provided the transaction occurs in a stable 3rd party region. Any viable and willing 3rd parties will be paid a 3% commission if they can insure the transaction. No questions asked, no credit extended.

Red Ball AFB

Positioned in the shadows of the towering granite cliffs of the Jizan Area, Red Ball AFB was, after Cloud and Sharif the largest Air Force Base, and patrols by stationed squadrons covered nearly all of east Yemen and the entire Red Sea, and thus proving vital to national security. However, the gigantic concrete shelters and hangars of Red Ball also hid the air arm of the quick reaction force of Al-Sabir, force projection at its best.

Having recieved a Presidential mobilization order nine hours earlier the six hundred enlisted men and women of the 1st battalion, 2nd brigade, 11th Airborne Infantry Division, were now ready to hop on board one on of the twenty MC-216 Ranger Strategic Transport Transport Aircraft, assembled on their tarmac ramp space adjacent to the main command compound. Plastic crates, having large quantities of ammunition, drinking water, reserve uniforms and other prerequisited equipment tucked into them, were lined up, ready to be stowed into the confined cargo bay of a MC-216. A remarkable new piece of standard equipment was also brought along to the humid lands of El Jihado.

Just approved by the DPRB, the revolutionary VEPR advanced modular combat suit, incorporated technologies to outfit the soldier of the future with an advanced weapons platform capable of traversing all terrain, locating an enemy target, moving to that target and engaging that target swiftly, powerfully, and silently, and be able to defend its wearer in all conditions. It also contained uplinks to various advanced communication sattelites, meaning a single infantryman could coordinate strikes using air, land, and sea-based assets.

Vehicles were also loaded into parachute cargo pallets, mainly Humvees with 40mm grenade launchers and .50 machineguns on the roof, to provide direct fire support.

The men exuded some sort of confidence, their broad shoulders and backs straight, while staring into nowhere, as they were now awaited a short pep talk by their commanding officer, Colonel Abdullah Hakim, just returned from a staff post under Brigadier General Ibrahim in Gabon.

"Brave men and women of the 1st Battalion, 2nd Brigade, 11th Airborne Infantry Division, as you are aware, the proud people of El Jihado are brutally pillaged, assaulted, raped and murdered by terrorist paramilitary forces, supported by the terrorist nation of Maslawyia.

For too long we have allowed these sunzabitches to do as they please, to murder locals, to exploit El Jihado's natural resources, and above all, to form a threat to free trade on the seas of the world!

No longer shall we tolerate such behaviour, no longer shall we idle and still back while El Jihado's people suffer.

We will end this plague swiftly, decisively and with professionalism and we will show the world that no one messes with the 11th Airborne! To victory!"

"To victory!"

The men cheered, waiving with Al-Sabirian flags and divisional ensignia, exsulting until their voices were hoarse, and they could only grunt.

OOC: Forgot to add this part.

IC: Red Ball AFB

The 25th Heavy Bomber Wing had a remarkable history. Responsible for the carpet bombing of the undefended city of Kusair, thirty years earlier, killing over 30,000 men, women and children, the Wing had a severe reputation, and nearly no one was willing to enlist for serving in its ranks. Thanks to a little luck and appeals of a madman, its legendary commander, Major Mohammed Aziz Sharif, father of the current Minister of Defense, Abdullah Sharif, the Air Force didn't deactivate the Wing if Sharif could provide enough manpower to keep its B-52s flying, Mohammed travelled far off, personally recruiting 3,000 men and women from all over the country in six months, a record never broken by any other single recruitment officer.

Over the years, its status as a former genocide unit had faded and this day, the 25th has no problems whatsoever finding enough brave men and women to form its echelons.

The MB-52K, currently in service with the 25th, incorporates new electronics, new engines, refitted defensive armament, a modified airframe, datalinks, enhanced communications and various new radars, both passive and active, averse to older B-52s. Twenty-four of these lethal killing machines are actively utilized by the 25th, with twenty more functioning as (combat) attrition reserves and trainers.

That moon-lit night, all twenty-four MB-52Ks, titans of war, were warming their engines at the asphalt of Red Ball, the air filled with their roaring. Ordnance technicians and crew in fluorescent jackets used tractors to lug munition trolleys over to the constellation of MB-52s. A variety of bombs and missiles would be carried, mostly JDAMs, but hyperaccurate ALCMs were also loaded.....

<center>ATTENTION EL JIHADO

These pamphlets are the best we can do
We cannot get the word out any other way;
the goverment shut us down to keep the public
from total panic. Yesterday evening a jeep
careened off the road and ran through our front doors.
It crushed its way through the glass reception and
plowed right into the elevators

then it detonated.
47 People were snuffed out at that moment,
many more are in makeshift hospitals with burns
and small injuries.

Even though there is not many of us left,
we are in hiding and we will keep trying to
get the word out to you about whats going on in
EL Jihado.

>>Today<<

Its apparent that the government forces are losing readily losing ground.
There has been no word from any of the southern uranium facilities and
what is left of the bridge network is in rebel hands.

Here in the capitol, fighting has been fierce, we have been operating out of this basement for fear of going outside. We've seen stonings, hangings and building after building burning unhindered. Its a war zone out there.

We cant stress enough how vital it is to stay inside everyone.
Pray the government fortces can turn it around.

We are fortifying our grip on this country hour by hour.
Hundreds of upper-class civilians are being rounded up from every island in Les Islandes El Diablo. Weof the lower class are rising up to take what we finally deserve.

We are holding executions in bunkers, warehouses, airport tarmacs, park grounds and city centers. We will purge the white from our collars.

We reitterate that any attempt to stop us from fufilling our destined goals will result in the death of hundreds, if not thousands. Our representatives in the international community stand waiting to die for the cause.

"Sir, we have a situation on our hands,"

"I know, I know, just give me the damn facts,"

"Yes, sir,"

The young FIO, Federal Intelligence Office, officer, his hands trembling, passed the brown envelope to his superior, the President, Khaled Brahim. Side by side, they thrusted through the passages of the underground headquarters of the FIO and, of course, all their sub-departments. His eyes scanning the lines and photographs, Khaled flipped through the various sheets and pages.

"If this shit is authentical, we would be into a lot of trouble,"

"It is authentical, sir, just skip all of it to page nine, where the SIGINT charts and sattelite photographs are displayed,"

It was silent for a moment, only the sound of their footsteps reverberating against the concrete walls,

"Holy shit, are you sure this isn't faked?"

"Sir, we retrieved it from our forty billion dollar sattelite constellation, what could those savages possibly spoof? They don't have the expertise or cash to do so. As for some cheap old Russian "Maskirova", they are too disorganized, plus at this scale, with such a large country, no, impossible,"

"I see your point. Goddammit, if we proceed, we would be responsible for the most significant act of genocide in the last few decades. No, I won't let that happen,"

The two men bursted into a enormous rectangular hall, filled with isolated occupied workstations and rows of computer consoles and map charts, having colorful symbols constrasting with a black background. The sound of numerious agitated voices, the constant chirping of (cell)phones and the buzzing of the airconditioning instatly filled their ears.

"Get me Mr. Sharif on a secured phoneline,"

"Right away, sir. Follow me"

His FIO aide zigzagged through the room, Khaled on his weels. Grabbing an antrachite cellphone lying on the desk of the secretary, near the exit, the FIO officer quickly dialed a number and pressed the phone into Khaled's hands.

"Abdullah, where the hell are you?"

"Red Ball Air Force Base, Mr. President, watching the departure of the 1st Battalion,"

"Fine. Do you know what's going on?"

"Yes, Mr. President,"

"Right, you are at Red Ball, you have sattelite communication. The 11th is ten minutes from waypoint Bravo, the point of no return, call those troops back, as well as the bombers, now!"

"Yes, sir, I'm on it,"

"You better be,"
