Rebels seize Monrovia, US strikes back
Insurgents captured the city from European forces but after a quick counter-attack from the US Navy the rebels were driven out. Unfortunately rebel forces set fire to the city while leaving it and despite American efforts to save as many civilians as possible at least 150 are believed to have been killed in the flames.
Yemen fingered as supporter of terrorism
The FBI held a press conference today presenting evidence that Yemenese officials were involved in the hi-jacking of commercial flight AA 43 two months ago. The airliner was taken by masked men who ordered the pilot to fly to Cuba. The investigation came to the conclusion that some passengers attacked the hi-jackers, leading to a crash in the Atlantic ocean. 348 people died.
Now the USMC lead a landing in Yemen to seize the Yemenese president and secure the capital. According to the Pentagon the operation was a complete success and the former Yemenese president will be taken to the USA for a trial.
Military reform announced
After a lenghty investigation numerous changes will be implemented in the US armed forces. [ooc: built national military service]
Latest fighter launched
The F-22 Raptor was today shown to the public for the first time. President Pavlov commented: "This fighter can out-fly and out-fight any fighter and will be a vital step in maintaining the strength of the US armed forces"

To: Chairman Eivind
When the 'Allies' attacked our allies and us you were one of the first to tell us not to take any of their cities, according to you we were only allowed to kill units in our own country. Is there some kind of other rule for you? This invasion of Hong Kong is just the last event in long string of aggressive behaviour from you. Central Asia, Vietnam, Korea and now Hong Kong. We have gone through the whole appeasment thing before. It doesn't work. In a personal letter you demanded that I leave the Middle East alone and now you're trying to turn it into a part of communist China!
In accordance with your treaty with the UK Hong Kong is to remain independent until 1997 and that's that.

We don't know what 'world leaders' you've spoken with but this world leader wants Pakistan to remain independent. Not in theory but practically.
