(ooc: I'll be running the civilian side of Japanese affairs)

Ise Hatomori, Prime Minister and head of the Prosperity Party rose to the podium that overlooked the Japanese National Assembly

"The old has been swept away and nothing now stands in the way between us and the dawning of a new age of peace and prosperity. With our new constitution, Imperial power has been restored, the military reestablished, and parlaimentary stability has been ensured. Japan shall once again stand tall and be a glorious example among nations. But before we can lend a hand to our neighbors we must set our own house in order. Prosperity must be return for our land so that wealth may once again flow from our land like a flood.
The centerpiece of our economic stabilization plan is a moritorium on national debt repayment. Although we recognize the duty that we owe to those that have leant the government money, the reestablishment of Japanese prosperity must come first. But this is but the first step on the road that the government must lead the nation. Interest rates shall be cut and the Yen depreciated so that Japanese investment and exports shall reach new new heights. This shall surely compensate Japanese investors for the delay in debt repayment.
Second only to the problem of the crushing weight of our debt is the plight of our banking system. Some of our most eminent banking houses flounder in a sea of red ink. This cannot be allowed to continue. But instead of pouring money into bailing out these failing banks we shall nationalize all banks in danger of bankruptcy and ensure than the Ministry of Finance guides them towards serving the good of the nation until it is expediant for them to be reprivatized. This nationalization shall be funded by a one-time tax of forieng assets owned by Japanese citizens.
Yet another problem that stands in the way of prosperity is the bloated weight of our government bureaucracy. Our taxation system will be simplified and a new flat income tax shall be established. Our social welfare system shall be replaced with a National Stipend that shall supply each Japanese citizen with the money necessary for basic sustenance, shelter, education, and healthcare. But how it shall be spend shall be determined by the citizenry rather than the bureaucracy.
Another impediment that must be removed is our reliance of oil imports. This cannot be allowed to continue. As a result it is now the highest priority of the Ministry of Science to develop alternative fuel sources
But if we do succead in instituting a new era of prosperity, the danger of inflation shall rear its ugly head. To prevent this from occuring we are in the process of instituting profit-sharing systems in all major industries, so that employees shall take hope a portion of their companies profits. This shall not only improve employee morale and productivity but it shall relieve inflationary wage pressures. In order to compensate employers for this governmental impostion we shall pass new labor laws that industry will find to its liking.
This, my friends, is bitter medicine and many will find it hard to swallow. But swallow it me must if prosperty is to return to our land.

( Bleh it's almost like I'm back in Econ class. But I had to think of some way of getting Japan out of economic stagnation )

Russian News
Russian Government Issues Warning
The Russian Government has issued a obligatory warning to any territories that are thinking about independence like Chechyna, well at this time there is only one which is Dagestan. We must prevent this insurgency from happening, and spreading to other republics, Dagestan we fear may be the next Insurgent Republic. We must promise the people of this Automous republic that we can do better in politics and in Economics. This warning is not issued to the people of Dagestan, but to the politicans... if you are caught with any signs of corruption you will be exiled from Russia. This may be harsh or not the democratic way, but we are coming down to our last stance at this dangerous obstacle we must overcome the weakness of our political system. - President Vladimir Putin

In the rest of his speech, he feared that thousands of people may be arrested for corruption then kicked out of Russia... but he says it is for Russia's own integrity and stablility. This basically is marshal law (aka state of emergency) anyone found to be with working with the mob, or is a mob member, or is a rebel will be arrested and exiled from Russia... but is not like police can arrest anyone at anytime, Putin Said in the last words of his speech.

OOC: I am sorry it had to come down to this, but nation's like Armenia, China, and Azerbajian are causing problems in our nation.

Bangkok Captured
A joint UMNO-FUNCINPEC-VRP army has finally captured Bangkok, the DRSEAan capital. The DRSEAan government, along with DRSEAan leaders and troops in Bangkok had fled from Bangkok, burning as much as they could before rebel forces could capture it. It is believed the DRSEAans fled northward towards the town of Nakhon Ratchasima.
Rebel forces now control a quarter to a third of Thailand.

DRSEAans Flee From Vietnam
After the fall of the DRSEAan capital, DRSEAan troops remaining in Vietnam have started to move westward through Laos, then south to Thailand. DRSEAan troops in Laos have likewise done the same.

DRSEA Defeated in Battle of Tavoy
DRSEAan troops in Tavoy retreated when news of the fall of the DRSEAan capital reached troops Tavoy, only to find that they were surrounded on three sides by the BVRP. Troop morale had fallen sharply after the fall of their capital, and most simply gave up to the BVRP. The few remaining DRSEAan troops who didn't give up tried to make a run toward the mountains, but were easily shot by BVRP soldiers.

Kachin Faction Eliminated
The Kachin faction has surrendered to the BVRP after weeks of negotiations, receiving the same benefits as the Chin faction will receive. Negotiations are also under with the Shan and Karen factions, with the BVRP hoping to reunited Burma under one banner.

Popular Revolt in CPP Cambodia
Hundreds of angry peasants revolted after CPP efforts to increase rice production by putting peasants into communes failed after famine hit northern Cambodia, due to several rice crop failures from the recent drought. The peasants have taken control of the Cambodian town of Phumi Samraong, and the CPP has so far made no efforts to retake control of the town.

OOC: It's not an Empire I rule but Israel. I only occupy the other lands. Besides, I recently destroyed guerillas in my territory. Anyway Bearcat it's nice to have a war going on, be fair okay?

But, hehehe, war is war...Muahahahahaha!

Premier Joolseph states Martial Law

Due to the latest arab uprising (where exactly? i am assuming NOT in Israel) all Mossad Police and Motorized Heavy Assualt Teams have been Mobilized. Three Brigades are now on patrol in Israel itself and 5 in Arab occupied zones. Premier Joolseph said

"I am not surprised. As we all know, we recently defeated the minions of Hussein that spread all over the Middle East. This guerilla force will be taken seriously, but as long as it maurades on Arab land, I don't care. Let the bastards scorch their own earth.

Prime Minister Joolseph said that the democratic elections in Israel's Occupied Provinces will need to be held in a quicker tempo.

He also ordered All Jews ,living together with Arabs, to maintain calm and that if any of them would start a riot, they would be shot or send to Mossad Security Prison (the most brutal in the world )


Mossad Security Top Priority Orders

-Infiltration of Guerilla Forces
-Penetration of Guerilla Forces
-Finding Source of Gun Delivieries, then executing/destroying it.
-Assasination of Leader at one of his public speakings
-Mossad terrorization of supportes of Guerilla Forces
-Sweeping Land for possible smugglers shipping weapons, then executing them.
-Land, Sea and Air Blockade
-Fortifying Artillery on Border
-Mobilizing Crack Infantry Troops to directly assualt guerillas if fired upon, men mobilized 50,000

*We will not send any more troops then the 8 Mossad brigades and 50,000 men in Anti Partisan brigades. We don't want this to be a real war.

MOD, i would be happy if you told me which ones succeded.

Handouts to the Poor

50 New Shelters have been opened. Homeless Arabs are invited to them.

Money handed out to Arabs

Times are hard, we give each family the size of 4 and above 1000 dollars and each family of size 3 800 dollars.

Jobs offered to Arabs

8 oil refineries have been destroyed in Iraq. We are happy to say that a few new ones will be opened in Israel, people, no matter if circumsized or not, are welcome to work in them.

Report yourself to Job Centers.

NOTE: One of the requirements of accepting handouts/jobs is

*You will never in your life support Guerilla or Terrorist Organizations on the territory of Israel or any other territories. If you yourself are victim of extortion or terrorization report it to Mossad Police and they will help you solve your problem.

I know arabs will be suspectful, but some people who just want to estalish family will think this is groovy

OOC: This is not the 'Israeli Zionist Empire' or whatever! It's just Israel, a democratic nation, you know.


Peace Treaty Signed with Russia

Israeli Foreign Minister signed a Peace Treaty with Russia Last Night in Moscow. He also stated that "Israel will no longer support Chechens, unless they have Russian approval".

He also commented that the ceremony was grand and the atmosphere very friendly.

Arab Leader invited to Jerusalem

Premier Joolseph took the senates advice and decided to meet/negotiate with the Arab leader.

"I don't know what their problem is, we just want to circumsize!"

Commented the premier... euh no wait...

"I know that Arabs hate Jews and vice versa. This, to me, is very ironic, we are all descendants of the same race. We should be brothers.
I hope that the fighting in Arab countries under our influence will cease. As I promised to the people, Democratic elections will be held in Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and Iraq. I want to rid myself of maintaining peace there. It is costing us too much financially. If the Arabs want to slaughter themselves, good, but they have to wait while we withdraw"

If the Arab Leader decides to come to Jerusalem, all hostilities will cease.

Reporters Welcome

Reporters from all over the globe are welcome to our nation.

Anyone can be in government

Even though Premier Joolseph is not very popular in the government, and that the current situation is bad, the Prime Minister managed to change the article saying that only "Jews and people of Jewish Origin can be in government"
He claimed that this is part of his tolerancy policy. Zionist Terror Organizations and Political Analysts say that this is an infringment of the idea that Israel is "a safe haven for Jews, that are being discriminized all over the world"

p.s. I am not bombing anybody. I want the civilian side, wether arab or jewish to be on my side, so I am not using 'scorch the enemies earth' tactic. Me try being good to peoples. UGH! no... OY VEY!

I just want to remind you that I didn't conquer these countries, according to my storyline, which I have a right to forge : Saddam Attacked me whilst penetrating the governments of Syria, Lebanon etc... I destroyed saddam and overthrew the governments.

Sheesh, long one.

Invasion of Singapore!

Following news of the closing of Singapore to international shipping, the United Kingdom decided to secure the port island. Task force Lionheart was deployed from the UK carrying 6,000 soldiers and the Royal Dragoon Guards, one of Britains foremost armoured regiments.

At 04:00 local time HMS Illustrious launched its harriers for a dusk raid on any coastal fortifications on the small island avoiding the city's population and economic centers. At 06:00 HMS Ocean, Albion, and Bulwark closed into range. Landing craft and helicopters erupted from Ocean and Albion bringing the bulk of the 6,000 man force ashore. Once a beach head was secured, Bulwark came in and disgourged the Royal Dragoon Guards. Once the task force was ashore, they made the way into Singapore proper mopping up token resistance on the island making sure to do little damage to city infrastruture. Once most of the island was in British hands Illustrious once again deployer her harriers in a screen for any landing craft attempting to land reinforcements. By 17:00 local time, the entire city was in the hands of the UK.

Foreign Minister

To U.S.

What say you on the weapons purchase?

To India

The UK is thrilled enourmously to see a government supporting educational reforms to help the impoverished. We look forward to working with you. Military deals from the UK may be possible if you are willing.

OOC: RUN OUT OF AMMO!!!!????? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Right, just like the Muslims did in Afghanistan, or like the Hezbollah did in Lebanon. Jools, so long as you continue to occupy Arab lands, you will have one big ass guerilla warfare going on, not to mention out of control terrorism.


Riots Continue!

Riots continued today throughout the new Jewish territories, as well as Palestine lynching any Jews they could find. In many places rioters clashed with Israeli soldiers, but were beaten back by Rubber bullets. Hatred of Israel remains high, and estimated 42 Jews and 91 Arabs were killed today.

Worldwide Boycott of Israeli business urged by Muslims!

Due to the recent Israeli occupation of Muslim terriories by the Zionists, Muslims all over the world are taking part in the resistance against the Israeli menace. From now on, any Israeli business will not have any Muslim customers anywhere in the world! In addition, Muslims all over the world are sending in donations to the Arab Resistance.

*******

To the Israeli government:

Our demands to you are simple. We demand that you leave the Arab countries that you have just occupied. While we understand your need for security, so long as you occupy the Arab countries you have just taken over, you shall have none of it. So long as Israeli foreces remain in those lands, the People of Israel shall live in fear just as they did in the Ghettos of Europe, for no Israeli shall be safe from terrorism. We have halted rebel activities to give you a chance to respond to our demands, but we can not contain the rage of our people, whose hatred for you has never been greater, and thus riots continue. While you may have had problems with the regimes of the nations you have just conqured they were not a democracy, and so the people of those nations can not be held accountable for their leaders actions. You, on the other hand, are a democracy, and your people are accountable for your actions. We demand that Israeli soldiers withdraw from the countries they have just conquered as Soon as possible, to be replace by UN soldiers who will set up democratic elections.

To the World:

Our demands our not unjust. We ask Israeli soldiers and Israeli occupation governemntto be replaced with UN soldiers and a temporary UN leadership in the recently conqured lands. and free and democratic elections in those countries occupied by Israel. However, the Israelis took so long to leave Lebanon and to this day have not allowed for a Palestinian State, we will need arms to fight the Israelis if they stay, and to have them in case the Israelis agree to our demands but take their time to leave as they did in Lebanon for 20 years. We need Supplies, Arms, and Money. Compensation can be provied for the first two.

OOC: I don't need anyone to tell me the current situation in the Middle East. I lived there for 10 years.

To The Populace of The Middle East
speech by Premier Joolseph

My friends, I by no means expected that the situation in Israel would change dramatically. Though I tried. I made reforms, encouraged people to help each other, spent millions of dollars to help the level of tolerance both Jews and Arabs present. Unfortunately only now I noticed that money wont change the situation. You, YOU, the people, THE PEOPLE, we're ALL PEOPLE, looking at it one way or the other WE ARE ALL BROTHERS. Do the blacks still hate the whites in America? Do the people of Europe hate the Germans for what the Nazis did? Must there be racial segregation? Must this line exist? We MUST learn how to forgive... It's up to you.

Dear Arabs, you think you are doing something good. NO. You are destroying your land. May I remind you who cleansed you of Saddam Hussein and destroyed his henchmen that ruled your countries? Who saved you from poverty, dictatorship? Who's blood was spilled?
We don't fight just for the heck of it. I saw a chance to cleanse the Middle East of hatred. I took advantage of it and almost succeeded.
Do you know why I didn't give orders to Mossad Assault Squads to come out onto the streets to brutally murder you and show our power? Because, that's nonsense. I don't have the heart to do that. Listen to me brothers. If you will HELP ME instead of trying to destroy me, you will do better. I did this for YOU, I did this for DEMOCRACY. Lay down your weapons and go to your beloved families. Think about them, think about god. Ask him for guidance. Think about the people you killed.[/i] OOC:Wow, I'm really charismatic


Evacuation of Jews

Queitly in the night, Jews were evacuated to shelters. Not one shot was fired from Mossad Guns as the Premier ordered them not to go down to the level of the bloody butchers.

Premier insists to meet Riot Leader

If you want peace, if you want me to trust you order your followers to go to their homes.
Don't solve the problem like children do. I seek no Vendetta. I seek to know you and befriend you.
I will show you my plan for democratic elections and my withdrawal from your land.
I will also tell you about my plans for an undivided Palestine, one for all. A great country of tolerance where Jews and Arabs show foreigners there proud heritage.

If you are a real leader stop this and come to Jerusalem immediately. I guarantee you safety. Otherwise, if you cant contain the violence, what sort of leader will you be?

It's easy to critisize (but not to circumsize ).


Last of Saddam's Henchemen Executed

Basra, which is now a foritifed Israeli base has been the scene of over 300 executions of Saddam's henchemen and the funeral of the madman himself.

It is also reported that all Bio and chemical weapons have been captured or destroyed.


People all over listen to the Premier and calm down...

Many of the inhabitants were tired of the fighting and glad it was over. However, there was also a number which still felt antagonism towards the other group. The volatile groups then came into conflict, causing the whole of the condo to be punished and raised antagonism as each group now blames the other for ruining their chance at peace.



Worried about these news, the Prime Minister personally arrived at the compounds and urged the residents not to squabble with each other but to unite together against the REAL vandals.

He also had held a mini press conference with the residents, they talked about his plans for Israel, for Arabs, for containing the riots. Some called him a brave and wise man, others thought the opposite.

The United States watches the situation in the Middle East with interest. The Israeli action runs contrary to all efforts for peace in the Middle East. Israel cannot hope to successfully control such a large area on their own. If they are not careful, the oppressed Arab peoples will rise up and Israel itself shall be destroyed.

The United States is withholding all aid to the government of Israel until it comes to its senses and realizes the madness it is attempting.

In other news, in the Congress, Republicans are calling for a bill cancelling IMF funding to Russia and recalling the vast loans already issued. Said one senator, "If Russia can afford to repair and deploy its rusting navy, they don't need our money and they don't need the IMF's money." (OOC: Recalling the IMF loans and refusing future loans will destroy the Russian economy in an instant. Even Giancarlo's reforms would be nothing when compared to the catastrophe this would cause. It would take about five years to get Russia back to the point that it is currently at, let alone make anything better.

*secret*
Somewhere in the Arizona desert, technicians worked and consoles, controlling the vast series of optics and mirrors that directed the laser. A product of the Star Wars program, the laser and the entire facility were built to destroy enemy satellites and even missiles in time of war. The system had never successfully destroyed a missile, but satellites were another matter.

In the dark of the Arizona night, the technicians worked away, finally, having computed the targeting solutions, the laser fired multiple times, some fifteen in all.

In space, the fused pieces of plastic and metal that were once satellites began to fall to earth and burn up in the atmosphere.

The Israeli government became disturbed when all of its military, spy, and communications satellites went dead for no reason.

In Arizona, the technicians continued to compute firing solutions. There were many targets on the NSA and CIA lists...

*still secret*
On the Lebanese coast, a submarine broke the surface. Unnoticed because of the satellite window and the destruction of the Israeli satellites, the submarine waited as boats approached from the coast. The boats soon returned to the shore as the submarine dove beneath the waves, totally unseen.

The Arab rebels would be causing Israel a lot of trouble now. They had been given a large number of Russian guns, a sizable amount of ammunition, numerous shoulder SAMs, and quite a few anti-tank missiles. Best of all, no one could determine who was arming the rebels, but it was known that they were using Russian weapons.

Also, within the United States, NSA, CIA, and FBI agents moved quickly, capturing many people expected of spying for the Mossad. The public, however, knows nothing of this.

*end secret*

To the United Kingdom:

Increased Trade Capacity in the Netherlands

OoC: I took a class in economics, and if I am following the plans I have now, I will be abled to eliminate all debt from Russia within 3 years. Infact our Navy is not being deployed anywhere now, it is staying in their bases. IT is dirt broke. We are just getting a little bit of money in from private funding, or donations (not bribes) from Government Officials, such as myself. And since Yeltsin was arrested, all of the money he stole went back to the Economy, Military, and government. But mostly to the economy.

IC:
New Funding Programme
This new economic programme will build up more funding for the Russian Government so we can repay our loans. This programme will overrun any cancellation of aid money, and attempt to salvage any money it can out various programs. As this programme contiunes the space program will be sadly cancelled so we can gather funds to repay bond payments including the interest rate that lies with them. We urge nations to help us with this economic slump, if we work together we can get things done. The fact is we can't send our navy out anymore because it is flat out broke, it is only used for defensive measures.[i] - President Putin.

[i]This is a message to the republicans in the US: Why cut back on funding? For what? We aren't what we were 20 years ago, we aren't going to take that and put in a missle program. We aren't going to build our military up to 4 million again, infact we are cutting it down to 1 million. Is this too much to ask for? We need to repair our Health and Education System... the quality of these programs are infact good but funding is being cut back. Please reconsider this, and allow Russians to live better lives and be on the same level of Americans without another Cold War or Violence. Please, send reconsider this, and don't cancel Aid, because even with the toughest funding programme Russia won't survive. Or do you want Russia to plunge even more? We are not a communist state, we are a "Federal Republic" and plan to keep it that way. Communism is dead.


The President expressed how Russia would fall apart if IMF funding didn't come in.

Russian Aide to Israel

We greatly and deeply appreciate your aide. We are also following your example, hastening democratic referendums in Arab countries (same as your action in Dagestan).

The USA has blinded our sattelites. We wish to acquire information from yours, even for a price.
I don't know what the 'peacekeepers' are up to.

Russia will allow full free use of our satilltes, which are still up there. Only our space program is suspended. If the US messes around with the Russian Satillites we deserve an explanation.

To US: You are attacking a highly democratic nation of Russia. We are not Communists, we hope you can reconsider this decision of cutting aid. Your ideas of us are not true, because we are not like we were 20 years ago.

INDIAN FOREIGN AFFAIRS
To: Russia

We welcome such assistance as you would be able to provide in the resurrection of our economy. Perhaps we could become trade partners, and supply each other with goods? Friendship is a two-way street, as they say.

To: The UK

We thank you for your warm welcome, and indeed we would welcome an alliance with such a strong maritime power. We are alarmed, however, at your seizure of singapore! Why should such a city be ruled by a government so far away, we ask?

The possibilities of an alliance are still in existance, however. . .

To: Germany

We would glady welcome such an alliance! Let us commence increased trade, and embrace each other as sensible world powers!

To: Oceania

We would like to remind you of our original statement, and that we are not embracing socialism in its purity, but are rather seeking to combine the benefits of that economic system with the entrepeneurism of capitalism! We would welcome increased trade with your nation, is this agreed?

INDIAN DOMESTIC AFFAIRS

Russian military equipment has been received and is being issued to troops in the army and navy.

To India: We see your philosophy fits your nation and its burgeoning population. WE are thrilled by the offer of an increased trade with your nation. Surely, the masses of Indians could use Australian manufactured farm equipment to feed your masses, and also Australian wheat, and other agricultural priduce to feed your peoples. Furthermore, Australia offers huge reserves of raw resources for purchase. Perhaps we could work out a trade pact that would be mutually beneficial for our peoples.

OOC:
Be it noted that the Israelis don't know what o
n earth happened to their satellites. They just went dead and started falling from the sky.

I will be gone until Wednesday. Bearcat can watch over the US for me. All new Israeli satellites will be secretly shot down with the laser system. The United States will begin secretly assisting in the funding of Saudi efforts to supply the Arab rebels with money.

GC, I have taken three economics courses. That won't work. Trust me. Just be vague and say that you are rebuilding and starting public works.

We will sell you everything listed except B-2s and B-1s (too advanced to be sold so soon).

Of course, now Scott, if all Israeli satellites fall like that, one of three things would have to happen: Massive malfunction of Israeli satellite control, a nation is tampering with them, or magical wizards are taking them down.

Of course, that leaves us with two plausible causes. And since the US is the only nation even nearly capable of doing that to that many satellites, especially since Soviet facilities have fallen into disrepair, they'd suspect, but couldn't be sure.

Communist Rebels Seize Power in Guatemala

Guatemala's government was overthrown yesterday by a military coup staged by Communist rebels who call themselves the Guatemalan Liberation Army. While it is unclear how they intend to govern the nation, it is known that they have expelled all diplomats from the US and its allies and that they have put Guatemala under martial law. Several American tourists have been reported as missing, and numerous burnings of the US flag have been reported. A spokesman from the GLA claims that they are receiving armaments from Russia. This claim has not been verified.


War Continues Between Ethiopia and Eritrea

Despite a UN-brokered cease-fire, fighting is continuing along the border between the African nations of Ethiopia and Eritrea. Fighting has centered on the heavily-disputed mountain village of Zalambessa, which was retaken by Eritrean forces two days ago. In response Ethiopia increased bombings of Eritrean civilian centers. Ethiopia's leadership has vowed that the war will not end until Eritrea no longer exists, while Eritrea plans on defending its independence at all costs.

Sanctions on Rebels
To show very actions towards an outrageous report the Russian Government will be isolating the Communist Government 100%, and supporting the previous Guatemalan Government and Democratic Movements in this country. This is an outrage, the Russian people won't stand for it! The Russian Republic does not support communism infacts avoids it! We are a republic. These accusations were denied by all members of the Army, Navy and AirForce. Many people in the Army were ask questions to figure out what was going on...
