Terrorists
interrupt a gala cruise to the Far East as they turn the
vessel into a floating prison and hell ship.
The hijackers are a handful of ultra right wing
Japanese nationals who are seeking revenge and retribution for the
shameful mini-war with the United States the year before. The defeat has
festered and now there is to be sweet revenge. They have decided that
the ransom for the ship and passengers will enable them to show the
world that the gaijin (barbarians) are vulnerable and all those who hate
the Americans should rise up and create terror against the American’s.
There is a bonus for the terrorist’s as onboard is
two principals from the earlier hostilities. Mike Ellison (a CEO of a
major aerospace co.) and Art Colfax (FBI) were the catalysts for the
events that led up to the military catastrophe for the Japanese a year
before.
The
hijackers are asking for a five hundred million-dollar ransom and safe
passage to an undisclosed site. They plan to fly out of a deserted World
War Two airstrip near the coast of Alaska. They intend to take hostages
from the crew and passengers and use a ships' boat to go ashore.
The
failure of a joint Delta-Seal team attack at sea is a disastrous failure
and the world now waits for the drama to unfold. The Japanese terrorists
make a successful getaway and are tracked to an Iranian airfield where
they land with the ransom and hostages. However, they are betrayed and
in a surprise attack are massacred by the Iranians.
The U.S. president states that there will not be another Iranian hostage
affair. We demand that the hostages be released immediately. Iran
procrastinates and says, in a day or two.
The U.S. throws down the gauntlet and attacks one of Iran’s oil
refineries. The Indian’s are livid at the attack and vow revenge. The
hostages are petrified. An
eye-for-an-eye Iran proclaims and terrorist fanatics attack the New York
City subway system at rush hour with nerve gas. The carnage staggers the
country. There are over a million dead; the disposition of that many
bodies alone creates a mind-boggling problem.
A nuclear strike is ordered by the President and sanctioned by the
congress. The U.S. and its people hunger for revenge. Armageddon is
close! |
