    Doctor McKeeson: (Or, how 5 people single handedly started a World War)
  • So Lets review, America has just suffered the world’s first nuclear terrorist attack. They are Reeling economically from the destruction of a major port. Growing fears believe that it was an attack by Moscow. President Ronald Reagan is becoming increasingly infuriated and will be much harder on the Russians, who are loving every bit of this. Even funding some anti-nuclear groups like CAAR. Speaking of those, everyone is terrified of them, people think they could be sleeper cells for Moscow. To top it off, America is mad and needs something to vent it on. Of course, Reagan is no warmonger, he needs a plausible threat to take on. Those guys in Iran that chant DEATH TO AMERICA sound like they might get some ideas from this. Let's get rid of them before they cause something. Meanwhile, The Soviets are led by Andropov, (well, not really. Andropov was incompetent, in reality Hardliners are pulling the strings.) And they are looking to weaken the west, the cold war is not done yet! Who can we add to our alliance that hates the west as much or even more than we do? How about those guys who chant DEATH TO AMERICA every day? And a pact of mutual defense is signed in secret.


    America is gearing up for War (which sounds like a stupid rage thing since their economy is weakened.) The Soviet’s are now allies with the wounded predator’s prey. Is World War 3 on the horizon? Have anti-nuke terrorists started a nuclear war in the ultimate display of irony? Lets discuss.
