Article Finland Urges Fight With Insurgents, issued by Reuters
The newly elected President of Finland, G. A. Gripenberg, announced the formation of new Finnish provinces in captured Karelia today. Organization of government is complete, and we will now be turning the provinces over to the Army, said the President. The head of the Nazi Party of Finland continued to say that the Chief of Staff of the Finn Army, Marshal Mannerheim, would be in direct control of the three new provinces, Kola, Belomorsk, and Petrozavodsk.
The administration of the Army over these territories can only be to stop the repeated incursions of Russian insurgents over the Finn-German border, say many analysts. The many mini-invasions of Finland have increased ever since the destruction of Sverdlovsk, and have caused some havoc in areas of occupied Russia. Finn representatives urged their fellow members of the Germanic Peoples Alliance to step up operations against the rebels, and restore order to Karelia and eastern Germany.
Not five hours later, reports were received of the President suffering a stroke. Assurances by the Finnish government have done little to assuage suspicions of foul play. Also, Marshal Carl Gustav Emil Mannerheim, chief of staff of the Army, has recovered from his long illness. The Marshal is 87 years old.

Finland aided Nazi Germany during WWII against Russia. Russia was a common enemy. Finland joined after it suffered a defeat to Russia in the Winter War of 1939.

Nazism isn't a government. Nazis were part of a fascist government.

If they were won in an election it'd still be whatever democratic government they were until they change it to suit their needs, and if it were run like Nazi Germany was, it'd be a fascist government.

BRITISH TROOPS ENTER IRAQ!
With diplomats from the Iraqi government concerned after recent developments regarding political leadership in Iran, the Iraqi government sent an official plea to the UK to send forces to ensure stability in the region. An undisclosed number of UK troops have entered Iraq, and have officially warned Iran that any act of war on Iraq would mean an act of war on the United Kingdom.
Prime Minister Mosley and the Queen went out to give their blessings to the troops this morning, as they load up and head out to Iraq.
Mosely Begins Revisal of Canadian Constitution
In a very touchy issue, Prime Minister Mosley has vowed to ensure that "British influence and prestige is not lost in a friendly transfer of constitutions to Canada". He specifically stated that multiple positions will be set up or preserved, such as the governor general, and our Queen will still retain some rights in the political process. Rest assured, our Prime Minister and Queen will ensure that Canada remains in the commonwealth, and hopes to avoid a war in north America that would proceed into a nuclear war with the United States.

British Troops Deployed to Iraq; Iranian Army Mobilizes for Defense of the Islamic Republic
With the recent deployment of British troops to Iraq at the request of that nation's hated and evil dictator in what can only be characterized as blatant imperialistic aggression, the land, air, and naval forces of the National Islamic Republic of Iran have begun a large-scale mobilization in preparation for a possible Iraqi or British invasion of the holy Fatherland. Our great Ra'is-e Jomhour Davud Monshizadeh addressed a large crowd in Tehran earlier today in the hopes of the assuaging the public's fears of Iraqi aggression. He had this to say:
"Iranians! Countrymen! Hear my words! This morning, military troops of the United Kingdom were ordered to take up positions in Iraq, the oppressed nation with which we share our western border. The forces of the English Empire are numerous and strong; but do not fear. As we speak, the land, air, and naval forces of the National Islamic Republic of Iran are marshalling to defend our holy and beloved Fatherland. I have mobilized our armies and our war industries, in preparation for the imperialistic aggression of the hated dictator in Baghdad. I pray this day may never come; but if it does, I promise you, Iraqi blood shall stain red the hallowed soil of Iran! The devil of Baghdad may do his worst; the Iranian people, the great Iranian master race, the glorious Islamic Republic of Iran will not be intimidated! I give you my word that this republic of ours shall take no aggressive actions against our neighbors, be they friend or foe; we prepare for war only to preserve the freedom, nay, the existence of our glorious nation. Whatever evils may come against us, I am certain that every member of our most favored nation shall do his all to defend his Fatherland. No force on Earth has ever vanquished Persia before, and with the grace of Allah, none ever shall!
Reports indicate that the Ra'is-e Jomhour intends to raise several new divisions, most notably armored divisions modeled on the successful German panzer units, to defend the Fatherland.

Reuters Wire Service, Finns Support British Expedition
HELSINKI: The Finnish government announced today that the President supports British intervention in Iraq. "We, as allies, wish Britain well in this latest of ventures and fully support them. The government of Iraq has requested assistance, and we have no doubt, our allies will render it," said President G. A. Gripenberg from his hospital bed. The President is recovering from a stroke suffered earlier in the year, and doctors say that he is expected to make a full recovery.
Any Iranian resistance, the President went on, will be regarded as an act of war against Britain and the Germanic Peoples' Alliance, signed by Finland in 1952 and Germany and the UK one year previous. So far, the peacekeeping exercise has met no obstacles in-country, and none is expected.

Reuters Wire Service, Finland Assists England
BASRA: The Republic of Finland sent an undisclosed number of troops to Iraq this week, in an effort to support their ally Britain. Iraq had earlier asked for British assistance to help stabilize their government. Britain responded, and Persia promptly mobilized their army. "We wish to help protect the Iraqi people as they go through this time of upheaval and instability, and to support our ally Britain as they keep the peace in such a volatile place," said President G. A. Gripenberg. "
"Only a few weeks ago, Finland issued a press release supporting their British allies. Now, they are backing it up with material," says an anonymous insider in the Finnish government. "They are merely honoring their commitments to their allies and to the people of Iraq."
Indeed, infantry have already started rolling off the transports and taking up defensive positions, wary at all times of an Persian attack. Southern Iraq is now full of Finn and British troops. Says the insider, "It'd be hubris to say we're invincible, but common sense dictates that we can resist Persian incursion."
