"Y-y-y-yes?"
"We need to talk."

(Helicopter noises in background)
Voice 1: This thing on?
Voice 2: Yes, sir.
V1: Good.
(beat)
Listen up, men. The subject, Eric Larida y Dy, is a fifty-three-year-old male CE Visayan who was discovered to be a benefactor of the Bacolod Catholic Pogrom. As you know, benefactors are under a kill order issued by the 33rd. Now, I know some of you have lost family to the Pogrom, but if we are to kill this son of a bitch, we ought to do it in a clean manner. That means headshots.
(beat)
Any questions?
Voice 3: Rules of engagement, sir?
V1: Let's minimize collateral damage, alright? If it's not Larida and it's not attacking, leave it. We're here for his head.
V3: Yes, sir.
Voice 4: Five minutes to drop zone!
(helicopter noises begin to change)
(Recorder is shut)
(Recorder is activated)
(rustling can be heard)
Voice 5: Sir, Shogun and I will proceed to pre-briefed sniping position.
V1 (Most likely Field Commander): Understood.
(some rustling can be heard)
V1: Fan out. Three-meter spread, no sound.
V5: Sir, this is Sade; Shogun and I have arrived at the position.
V1: Excellent. Prepare to provide cover if necessary.
Sade: Yes, sir.
V2: Sir, this is Nighthawk; I'm in position.
V1: Good. Hold your position and wait for my go.
(Recorder is shut)
(Recorder is activated)
V3: Bastard shut himself in, sir.
V1: Then let's go knocking. Nighthawk, place your breaching charges.
Nighthawk: Understood.
(Some faint taps can be heard)
Nighthawk: Charges set.
V1: Everyone in position?
(beat--nonverbal affirmation presumed)
V1: Do it.
(Explosion)
(A few noises)
Eric Larida?
Larida: (stammers) Yes?
V1: We need to talk.
Larida: Talk about what?
V3: Your role in Bacolod, you Nazi fuck!
(Slam)
Larida: (stammers) What do you mean by that?
V3: You heard me. Tells us how you aided and abetted murderous fuckwads who managed to kill off over 700 Catholics in three days.
Larida: Wait... You're Western Visayan, aren't you? What are you doing here?
V3: (gun cocking) Making shits like you pay, that's what.
V1: Grog, stand down!
Grog: Your beneficiaries killed my brother. I should show you how it really feels.
Larida: Okay, okay! I provided money and some steel pipes to the rioters for them to use on Catholics they can find. All the file are in my computer; I re-routed some of my cargo for that purpose. Happy now, you idiotic, ignorant Papist scum?
Grog: Yes.
Larida: They should have killed you all. These men of honor should have eliminated the Catholic Church from WVP and the entire world.
Grog: Whatever you say, you genocidal piece of fucking shit.
(beat)
This is for my brother, and for all the martyrs of Bacolod.
(Gunshot)
(Larida falls onto the ground)
V1: GROG!
Grog: I'll admit: He had it coming, sir.
(Recorder is shut)

The CEV Penal Code for Violations of International Law allows our government to exercise universal jurisdiction as per the concept of jus cogens or peremptory norm--an absolute international norm for those of you who are unfamiliar with the term.
"What is universal jurisdiction," you ask. Simply put, it is what the Government invokes when prosecuting violations of international law and custom. The principle is based on the notion that some crimes are an affront against all nations.
While in theory, this is a good thing, in practice, care has to be taken. Why? Quoting Kissinger, "Widespread agreement that human rights violations and crimes against humanity must be prosecuted has hindered active consideration of the proper role of international courts. Universal jurisdiction risks creating universal tyranny — that of judges." He was concerned that tribunals invoking universal jurisdiction, as any number of states could set such up, may result in the process degenerating into political kangaroo courts.
The concept of hostis humani generis under the Code is also a source of contention among experts in international criminal law. While it is understandable for those who commit grave breaches of the law to be held outside it, the fact is, the shoot-to-kill/shoot-on-sight policy is rather macabre, to be charitable. At best, it denies us the possibility of weeding out a murderous cabal. At worst, it allows us to become judge, jury, and executioner.

Preacher-presider: LT Dominador R. Lucas, CEVN, SVD
Feast of St. Lawrence of Manila, 2012
...
PO2 Basul: "The saints shall rejoice in their glory,
they shall be joyful in their repose:
the high praises of God
shall be in their mouth, alleluia5."
Lucas: "The Lord be with you."
R: "And with your spirit."
Lucas: "A reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Luke."
R: "Glory to you, O Lord."
Lucas: "Once when Jesus was praying in solitude,
and the disciples were with him,
he asked them, 'Who do the crowds say that I am?'
They said in reply, 'John the Baptist; others, Elijah;
still others, "One of the ancient prophets has arisen."'
Then he said to them, 'But who do you say that I am?'
Peter said in reply, 'The Christ of God.'
He rebuked them and directed them not to tell this to anyone.
"He said, 'The Son of Man must suffer greatly
and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes,
and be killed and on the third day be raised.'6"
"The Gospel of the Lord."
R: "Praise to You, Lord Jesus Christ."
Basul: "Please be seated."
Lucas: "Ego Catholicus sum et animo prompto paratoque pro Deo mortem obibo.
Si mille vitas haberem, cunctas ei offerrem. I am a Catholic and wholeheartedly do accept death for the Lord; If I had a thousand lives, all these I shall offer to Him.
"Today is the feast day of this ship's namesake, San Lorenzo Ruiz de Manila. The above mentioned quote is the martyr's final words, for he chose what is just in the eyes of the Lord. Eternal life, faithful to God...all the way to the bitter end at the hands of murderers that the Federal Republic would most likely have struck had the evil occurred in this era.
"Jesus said in today's Gospel that He shall endure persecution for our sake, dying only to rise again. It is in the spirit of this hope of rising again from the grave that we take up the challenges we currently face. As you well know, this ship and her sister ship, the St. Dominic de Guzman, are part of CEV's seaborne BMD system7. Naturally, this means we will not be in the front lines... for we will be close to shore, close to home. A home we certainly will protect, for is that not what God wants to see?
"Some of you have known people who escaped their homelands because they were, to put it charitably, different in more ways than one. The Czechopolish persecution, for example, was a call to arms. The aftermath was a standoff, but this nation became one of many beacons of hope.
"It's our duty, not only as CE Visayans, but also as men of God, to make sure CEV remains a beacon of hope. Always."
Basul: "Please rise."
Lucas: "That, helped by the intercession of San Lorenzo Ruiz and his companions, the Church may rejoice today in the harvest of holiness sown by the shedding of their blood for Christ, we pray:"
Basul: "Lord, hear our prayer."
