Blockade of Red Liberation Front

It has come to the attention of the world that the Red Liberation Front is a new, but growing threat: they seek to spread communism through terror. This would not be so bad in itself, until they stated that they requested military aid- and others replied.

The world cannot stand for this. Communists of the world, you have no right to impose on my nation your beliefs, and we will not sit back and wait for terrorists to strike first. That is the problem with communists today- instead of gradual change over time, they seek revolution, war, and destruction.

Therefore:

I will blockade the Red Liberation Front's territories where they are believed to be. I have not yet disclosed the forces to be committed. I have two allies, Fruity Loops and Endenia, who wish to assist our cause.

Under the terms of this blockade:

-Nothing goes in, nothing goes out, period, unless with our explicit permission.
-Starting NOW all foriegn vessels have precisely 24 hours to pack up and leave the area, and all incoming vessels must turn around immediately.

The blockade will END if any of the following occur:
-The RLF gives up terror
-All countries halt all offers for military hardware

Red Liberation Front, if you seek an international revolution, show the rest of the world why your country is better, not why the other countries need to be destroyed.

Other nations, if you wish, you may join our Coalition.

Courier:"Yes sir,but..my brother is a marine on a ship there..a chance of war?"
President:"Highly unlikely.."

OOC: I found it pretty funny when they declared they were blockading the terrorists when all replies to them were secret in character posts...

After that Hogsweat and Hallad added to my amusement by claiming they will break a blockade which can't possibly work, all just because the terrorists said they were communist...

In any case, if you want them to acknowledge your blockade then I would suggest explaining how you are blockading a terrorist organisation which hides in other nations and of which thier location isn't known to you.

OCC:Iuthia, alot of these nations refuse to read things before they post. They read the first post and the name of the thread and that is it. I was wondering also how in the hell these morons expect to blockade a organization. If they can figure this out, then I would like to know how to do so in future conflicts.

**Secret Transmission to Red Liberation Front made on casset tape and sent via a simpathetic government offical in a nation that will stay undisclosed **

We will give you assylum in the CL territories. This includes all of the 1804 Louisiana Purchase in North America, French Guiana, multiple islands in the Carribean which include:

Haiti
Anguilla
St. Christopher & Nevis
Antigua & Barbuda
Guadeloupe
Dominica
Martinique
St. Lucia
Barbados
St. Vincent & The Grenadines
Grenada
Trinidad & Tobago

We will allow your rebels to set up camps to train in these territories.

Just to give you a fair warning, I dont control all those islands so you will be surrounded. I have talked also with my allies of Neo-Soviet Russia whos motherland is Cuba. I have allies who control Mexico and all of Central America. You will be completely surrounded by nations who are very very strong, and just a fair warning. I have a policy that if a nation attacks my homelands, I will not only destroy those forces attacking, I will also attack their motherland and march and burn their capital city.

I warn you to just shut up and let things be.
Hogsweat
09-10-2004, 19:35
I agree. For a nation of your age, angering CL and me is a very bad thing to do. You won't even have the world on your side, since your the agressor.

Yes. A nation of 600 million bugging a few nations of a few billion probably isn't too bright.

Would you be willing, Communist Lousiana, to sell half the island of Tobago to The Corporate Authority of Bahbland? Or a smaller island of roughly equivilant size? Name the price.

SPYDUDES, YOU MORON. HOW IN THE HELL CAN YOU BLOCKADE AN ORGANIZATION. RLF IS NOT A NATION HE IS AN ORGANIZATION WHO IS LOCATED THROUGHOUT THE WORLD IN DIFFERENT NATIONS. HE HAS SAID THIS MANY TIMES. APPARENTLY YOU AND SOME OTHER RETARDS DO ONLY LIKE I MENTIONED ABOVE. YOU READ THE THREADS NAME AND THE FIRST POST. THATS IT. READ EVERYTHING BEFORE POST A REPLY

HE IS AN ORGANIZATION WHO IS LOCATED THROUGHOUT THE WORLD IN DIFFERENT NATIONS.

OOC: That said this thing does work both ways... if someone is going to hide behind the fact they are a organisation then they should be reasonable about it (or be ignored). For example, if you claim to be in nations around the world then you have to be ready to be able to know which nations they are OOC... in this case Communist Louisiana will probably allow your organisation to be stationed in his nation, but you will generally need OOC permission to be in someones nation, otherwise it's a GODMOD.

Whats more, being an organisation you shouldn't really have your entire population as described in your nations profile. Seeing as you aren't a nation you don't get the advantages of being a nation and will probably depend on handout from others who support you.

Also bare in mind that while it may be hard, people can trace terrorist organisations to where they are based... so nations can eventually be found out to be supporting them which would make them look bad.

Terrorist organisations take alot of work, but if done properly they can be quite rewarding... most people get it wrong and alot of nation ignore "terrorist" nations because alot of attacks they RP are borderline GODMODing.

So keep in mind that while you can hide behind the fact you aren't a nation, it also limits you. Nationstates roleplay is more about being reasonable and working with others to make a good plot... if you try to "win" you will find alot of people against you both IC and OOC.

OOC: I know that. I read the stickies about terrorism a number of times.

My organization is pathetically tiny right now. I only have 60-70ish operatives in the world. Meaning that all I can do at most is a 1993 WTC-esque attack, or maybe the Khobar towers.

Only a moron would use his/her "nation" stats for RPing a terrist org.

I plan on plotting attacks against a few nations I really don't like (lurked for a bit).

09-10-2004, 23:01
The Iron Concordiat of Wirraway has replaced Angelic Freedom with the Red Liberation Front as the most dangerous terror group in operation at this moment. Due to new intelligence we have determined that RLF is currently planning and consipiring to commit more acts of terror. The fact that they are a communist terror group makes them even more of a menace to our nation.

Therefore we have directed our intelligence department to begin to root out RLF cells and destroy its networks and members around the world. Terror will not be tolerated nor any nation that sponsors it. We view state-sponsors of terror in the same light as terrorists themselves and as far we are concerned they are terrorists too.

Now that RLF is the Wirrawayan Concordiat's Counter-Terror unit's highest priority, actions against RLF will not be ceased until it is completely and utterly destroyed. To the communist pigs who are in this group we offer a simple message

Welcome to the Jungle

Fair enough...apparently the RLF chose to play a game where you play nations, and then decided to become a terrorist group instead of a terrorist-sponsoring nation, the 'right' thing to do.

Two can play this game.

I hereby encourage all free nations of the world to impose inspections of all ships in their territor, cut civil liberties to find them, and kill them.

I am also now going to deploy nuclear submarine packs to hunt down and destroy ALL convoys suspected of hauling arms for that purpose- this will not happen indiscriminately, we will need evidence.

(OOC: I will start a thread in the case that this does happen.)

(OOC: If you want to make a SECRET arms transfer, then USE THE PM SYSTEM. If you DO NOT, I will assume your national code has been broken and that I can intercept the transfer.)

(OOC: Now now, comrade Aztec, this is free-form role play, and the NS site itself wasn't set up for any real lasting depth of RP at all; by playing a terrorist organisation this chap is fully within accepted norms. If you're going to be picky, it'd be best to adopt better RP etiquette, too. That is to say, make clear when you're in and out of character rather than just jumping back and forth and slapping markers down arbitrarily, make clear who from your nation is speaking rather than this infuriating, "I do this and that" stuff, and always, always make sure that you know there's no winners or losers, there's no race, and free-form RP isn't a competition.)

OOC: Hm... odd, concidering the fact that the majority of nations role-playing in this forum use "Secret IC" I doubt the majority of them will accept your claim that you know about that in character as it defeats the point... if you pull that crap on me then you would be ignored for not being able to respect my role-play.

The reason people use "Secret IC" and not just PM is because nationstates is a interactive story and while secrets being posted on a public forum doesn't make them secret, it allows people to follow the story without IN CHARACTER knowing, thus allowing them to understand the story better out of character to guide their actions...

I would suggest you learn the difference between In Character and Out of Character, you're post shows that you know that both exist, but your first comments were OOC posted as though they were IC.

Red Liberation Front has watched the forums and has learned how to role-play by watching others... currently he's coming across alot better then you are.

Seeing as Iuthian vessels will not be entering Aztec Lands waters we shouldn't have to worry about our vessels being searched by their rather eager navy...

However, it needs to be said that we will not sumbit to searches in International waters and we are prepared to give our trade vessels escort should we feel they are threatened by any hostile force.

All Iuthian vessels are asked to deny permission to searches and/or boarding attempts should any naval force demand that of them in International Waters.
