room. He’d managed to turn world opinion to support him and against the rest of the nuclear powers even while he’s crushed freedom in a third of the world.
    President Reid announces the LSA will never use or possesses weapons of mass destruction as such the LSA has nothing to release. Reid pauses, then turns on the 50 foot video monitor behind his podium, the image on the screen comes into focus to show President Puten smiling and waving to the televised crowds. The two symbolically shake hands on the screen. Reid announces the signing of a mutual defense and special status trading agreement with Russia. The LSA is promised low to zero import duties on products, parts and raw materials flowing into the LSA from either Russia or the Russian controlled European countries. Russia is granted zero import duties on their products. Russia is also promised special status when bidding on LSA major projects.
    Steve Fobas and Rash Linebacker are in the Oval Office watching President Reid’s address with the President; both look concerned while they’re watching Reid and Puten’s address. They turn to speak to President Brownstone, who holds up his right hand to motion them to be quiet.
    Reid and Puten continue, “In four days, we’re both flying to The Hague to present our case for an international arrest warrant for President Brownstone. We are going to make our case that the USA, in the person of President Brownstone, did plan and carry out first-degree murder against the loved founder and first President of the LSA, President Obsma. He did also commit murder against citizens of twenty other countries. Our goal is for The Hague to ask the United Nations to send sufficient force to remove the murderer from office, bringing him to face the truth in the World Court. We are doing this to bring the world together, to ensure there is a single governing body that can hold countries or the most-powerful people in the world, responsible for their sins against humanity. A world justice system that is blind to wealth and individual power, because the World Court will represent all the people all the time, not just those who can afford the best-legal teams to get them off with a slap on the wrist for the worst crimes. The world has long needed a final court to bring grievances against other world powers. It’s our hope that the World Court is able to settle international issues so that another world war never happens again.”
    Puten continues, “It is our hope that the United Nations, which was founded to preserve world peace, will vote to enforce whatever ruling The Hague hands down. We also hope the United Nations agrees to enforce the destruction of the world’s weapons of mass destruction. I am making it my life’s goal to ensure these horrible weapons are never used again. Russia is proud to announce we are seconding 50,000 soldiers to United Nations disarmament and peacekeeping forces. Russia agrees with President Reid; there’s no reason why private citizens should own a firearm. We in Russia don’t allow private ownership of firearms, our violent crime rate is a fraction of that of the USA’s. Removing military styled firearms from the world’s streets will dramatically improve the lives of all of the planet’s citizens. Our children will never have to grow up afraid of a drive-by shooting. Our children will never be afraid to play outside again. President Reid and I are convinced we can, and will, make this small planet we all share, a safer home for all of us. Thank you and good night from Moscow.”
    Rash looks at President Brownstone, “Sir; this is really going to open the floodgates. The media will appoint Puten the second coming within an hour, and why not? He’ll never allow the United Nations entrance into Russia…”
    “Rash, you’re wrong, yes he will. He’ll invite them into Chechen; he’ll hand over the very dirty job of disarming the rebels to them, only this time the 50,000 promised Russian troops
