Ayesha, Bashriyya
A new alliance had been forged, a new Axis of Counter-Revolution formed by Bashriyya, New Yama and Shurjah with the goal of procuring weapons of mass destruction and the defeat of the International Communist conspiracy. Nashid and Quardya forming an alliance, with many in African, Middle Eastern and European states worried about a spread of terrorism and a potential arms race occurring from the new alliance.

General Nashid's parade was close to the Saada Mosque, and local Clerics in the area largely hosted the event, children walked up to General Nashid to bring him flowers and women brought him sweets. Men saluted Nashid and people fired off guns up in the air to celebrate Nashid. General Nashid was in power once again after Qassim was caught allowing members of the Islamic Social Movement to infiltrate the government and conspire against the state. Nashid was now the highest ranking person in the whole country with command of both the country's intelligence agency and several brigades of the army, although the army was still very divided along factional lines.
The crowd was hoping Nashid would deliver a glorious speech that would increase the national pride and religious zeal, allowing them to make great strides for Bashriyya and Nashid had arrived to facilitate that to them. Nashid's public appearance was not rare as he would often visit various Mosques, Bazaars, Hospitals, Schools and even the homes of ordinary citizens mainly for propaganda purposes. In Nashid's mind the situation was delicate and he had to keep a popular image to prevent treason and dissent. Nashid however also kept a very militaristic strong man aspect as well, often doing poses comparable to Italian leader Benito Mussolini.
Nashid had arrived to the podium looking at the people with a firm look almost like that of a father figure overlooking all of his children or a Sheikh overlooking his whole tribe. He wanted to arouse pride from the people and bring awe to friends and foes from all over the world, he folded his arms in a Mussolini style stance looking at the people. Nashid stood up to the microphone "The past few months have been hard, we have faced a failed coup by traitors, the cabal of Shadowy bankers led by James Redshield is constantly involved in a conspiracy against this Government." Nashid said as he put his index finger up in the air. "I tell you that no Bashriyya will be enslaved to foreign Bankers and their global plans for hegemony and enslavement!" Nashid look at the people "Across the border in Hatay, Ali Golofad tries to tell us what weapons our military can and cannot procure, they threaten us if we have chemical weapons, so what if we do?" Nashid said boldy
"Our chemical weapons are a defensive mechanism against enemy invasion, and should that dog Ali Golofad try and stop our self-defense program and interfere with our national sovereignty. Then I promise to drown his palace and his parliament in a mist of poisonous gas!"
He cleared his throat and continued.
"We stand as a nation committed to peace and cooperation in the Arab world." Nashid smiled "WE do not stand for war, but if you threaten us with war then we shall give you Jihad!"
the crowd cheered
"We are prepared to live and prepared to die, we are not afraid to die, our soldiers know that when upon they reach paradise Maidens await them." Nashid banged his fist on the podium "What do your soldiers fight for Golofad? Truly, I ask you?''
"Bashriyya will not stop and never surrender to red violence, all over the Arab world Bashriyya has shown to the world, it is committed to Anti-Communism. Yet despite this, the bureaucrats and the paper-tigers in SACTO have not offered us member ship. It is because we do not ask for it, if we join we join and if we choose our own way then Allah will guide us. It's as simple as that really. I always pondered on what we must do and the only thing we must do is achieve total victory for total destruction of Communism!"
Nashid put both of hands up in the air shouting
"Our morale stands stronger then ever before and we choose to march in unison toward victory, and it is why I say unto you my fellow countrymen. Long Live Victory!"
the people cheered again.
chants of "Labbaik, Labbaik, Labbaik Ya Allah!" could be heard from all over the crowd, as Nashid left the podium, people through flowers and released balloons.
The speech was televised before the whole world and quickly would catch the world by storm!
Ayesha International Airport
Later during the night, two planes would arrive to Bashriyya, out of it walked John Miller the founder of Bronze Serpent a Private Military Corporation. This man in reality was in Bashriyya for one reason and for one reason only and that reason was business. In reality he could not stand Bashriyya, he never really liked Nashid as the man always gave off something that did not feel right. However he felt a need to come to Bashriyya this time and that reason was it was a somewhat neutral point to get in contact with the Government of New Yama while not off-setting the balance of power with Guadalupador. Currently Bronze Serpent had been based in Lebanon and had been training members of the Far-Right Kataeb militia in guerilla combat and enhanced interrogation methods. Which had gained the PMC some controversy among various leftist news sources who claimed that the organization was the vanguard of Capitalist oppression.
A week later..................................
Bronze Serpent put out a classified looking for new additional recruits to send to support New Yama in upcoming operations in Africa. The classifieds were of considerable interest in the Afruikan nation of Dahlslande and in Sandau-Nikolsburg where many refugees from Dahlslande had fled to. However despite all of the keyboard commandos claiming they would go, only two would show up. 23 year old Inga Von Junger and Ethan Von Klerk. Ethan Von Klerk was 32 years old and had been a child soldier as a kid, Inga had experiance in the Sandau-Nikolsburg police department, in particular its special unit, Special Investigations, Weapons and Rescue Tactics (SIWRT) and had an unusual sniping gift where she did not need a spotter and super-reflexes.
Secret Military camp
John did not arrive alone for alongside him he brought two of his company's best sniper Inga Von Junger and Ethan Von Klerk alongside at least ten of his best men. Eventually John and his mercenaries were walked onto an empty bus waiting for them. That bus would follow a long convoy of military vehicles to a location somewhere in the Bashriyyan countryside, upon arriving they would notice they had arrived to a secret training camp. They would see short Arab men practicing Nifonese marshal arts, doing target practice armed with Vz-58 assault rifles, and some even jumping through burning rings of fire. The place had a smell, the smell of combat and it was that smell of burning gasoline and gun-powder that Miller knew well and knew better then any other smell other then the scent of his mother.
John was impressed as the bus stop, all twelve of his elites got out of the bus. A drill instructor walked up to him, and to John's surprise this man was not an Arab like most of the men in the camp. This man was a Dahsland man, this man was none other then Franz Kreiger. He looked at Miller "I know you, your John Miller, you lead RavenSword yes?" Miller looked at the man and smiled "I know you too, your Franz Kruger the leader of Kommando Korps the paramilitary to the Dahlslande Ultranationalist-Seperatist Faction party, we met in the 80s, I remember you well. I will also say for your information we merged with Cole Hawker's outfit, we are now Bronze Serpent."
Franz smiled "It's been a long time Miller, you are here for something are you?" Miller smiled "I am here to try and meet with New Yaman intelligence, we need someone who can broker a deal to get the Boss out." Franz said "You don't mean our old buddy Gregory Sears?" Miller smiled "I mean Gregory Sears."
Franz said "Lonograd considers him Persona Non Grata, they view him as a threat to their national security and a man who knows too much about their arms deals, word on the street is they want to keep him."
Miller adjusted his sun-glasses and said "Well, the real question is whether New Yama can broker a deal with Aladeen to get him out, because frankly Sears is the only person who can give them men enough morale to fight Redshield. It will be just like the days when he ran Wild Goose International at it's time the most elite PMC of the day, after I had finished my work with the Nifonese that was the place to go for me. Sears was a true leader and I know he still is."
Kruger said "New Yama will not just give you what you want for free. You know that don't you?"
Miller grinned "Of course."
The obvious had become clear, John Miller was here for some wetwork and he knew that Bashriyya was the place where wetwork was offered on almost constant basis. Bashriyyan intelligence, Nifonese intelligence, New Yaman intelligence, Shurjah intelligence, Khaitayi mukhabarat, Cuscatlani and Inyurstan intelligence used Bashriyya as a hub for hiring mercenaries with the country housing numerous PMCs. War was a dirty business and a regrettable one but somebody had to answer and nations were always looking for people willing to defend them, spy for them, kill for them. The question for Miller was when was a Just War? In Miller's case he never just fought for money, he fought for what he believed in, he fought for truth, and he fought against corruption. Miller was not just any average Dog of War, for him the normal army did was filled with bureaucracy which prevented him from taking the war to the enemy and for Miller the PMC was the perfect model for him to take the fight to the enemy without all of the bureaucracy seen in conventional armed forces.
John Miller's enemy was none other then the Globalist order led by evil men like James Redshield and Amihan Russel, the shadowy conglomerate of revolutionary one-worldists whose goal was nothing less then world domination and the destruction of national sovereignty and borders. John Miller knew he could not allow these globalists to obtain their goal of world domination, if borders collapsed with one tyrant controlling everything then everyone would be equally repressed by an oppressive total state. John knew that if humanity and the natural order were to stay unharmed then the globalists had to be defeated. In order to do this he needed to get Gregory Sears out of jail, and Sears was his old buddy who had saved his life in West Africa and so in Miller's view he needed some way to pay his old friend back.
Kruger said "Well, God be with you Miller, and may your fighting always be for a righteous reason, and your war a just war!"
John smiled "Thanks Franz."
John then walked over to see Inga arguing with one of the Arabs.
"Who are you sharmouta? who the hell are you?" the Lebanese man said
Inga replied "Listen here you stupid raghead, I don't have time for your shit."
the Arab man responded "You come into this camp with no head-covering, your in a Muslim country I know these Bashriyyans they are going to rape you."
Miller walked over and said "Uh, Inga I need you."
She said "Yeah John?" she smirked.
The Arab man was confused of what was going on, he said "I do not get Westerners."
John put his hands over Inga's shoulders in an almost fatherly like way, "Now Inga, please don't pick fights with the locals here, its bad for buisness."
Inga replied "Oh sarge, You know I value perfection."
John smiled and said "I know that Inga, and that is why I doubt you will fail me, but I am warning in case you happen to fail me. If you skrew-up this important mission. This could have a bad effect on my company and I need to maintain a professional image, so I will need you to be in constant contact with me okay? I'm making you head of intel on this one."
Inga said "You won't be disappointed sarge"
Ayesha, Bashriyya
50 of Nashid's top officers stood around the desk, one of them Samir "My Za'im, I ask you to please think things through, he is only here to meet up with the New Yamans without arising too much suspicion."
Nashid said "That is easy for you to say, but we cannot have people seeing our training camps. Which camp is it?"
Samir said "It is one of the ones that the Nifonese know about, it is safe."
Nashid was clearly frustrated "Omar, Samir, Mustafa, Abdullah you stay, everyone else get out of the room and close the door behind you."
Nashid began to yell again "Miller arrived without my approval? Who let him in?''
Samir responded "My Zai'im, it is the pro-Nifonese faction of officers in our army, they are okay with him being here."
Nashid angered "What training camp was he shown?"
Samir said again "My Za'im, Miller was shown the Al-Jazzar training camp where we are training the Ultranationalists and some of the more moderate members of the Free Lonograd Army."
Nashid calmed down "I see they were not taken to the AIAI training camp, so we have nothing to worry about. However, I wish to be informed of these things ahead of time, then have them just done under my nose. You are all dismissed."
