“I’m not the kind of person who can easily
admit to this, but I am a little bit confused? You’re telling me I can forget
everything I’ve been taught and believe in? About our Country and the World?”
“Mister Kardeem. I know you understand
exactly what I am saying. You’re just trying to figure out, how much of it you
should believe and how much of it is true.”
“How can you blame me? We are brought up
in this country to believe in ‘Honesty, Compassion, and Freedom for All,’ but now
you’re telling me it is all a facade?”
“It is funny that you should quote a comic
book hero. That is exactly what we are telling you. Just like the readers of
those comic books, science fiction novels, fantasy novels, the people who
listen to music, watch heroic adventure movies, and play today’s virtual
reality games, where the player is depicted as the hero of a story line, it is
all superficial.”
“And your reasoning behind this is to give
the masses false hope? So they believe, as resources dry up, water continues to
be contaminated, and their food source becomes synthetic, there will be a hero,
either born here on Earth, rising as Phoenix from the ashes, or an alien being,
swooping down from the heavens in the nick of time to save humanity from their
blight?”
“Exactly Mister Kardeem.”
“And I’m being recruited by whom?”
“Mister Kardeem, once again we are
inviting you into the inner-circle of The Megestanu. The true Rulers behind the
One World concept. The movers and shakers, if you will, of the New World Order.
The One World Order.”
“Let me get this straight. You are a
representative of a group of ten men and women, I believe you called them Princeps,
who run the show, behind the scenes and our President is not really Commander
and Chief of the United States Military?”
“He certainly is the Commander and Chief of
the United States Military. But his actions are dictated by the information he
receives on a crises, the advice given to him by his Advisers, and any
collaborating evidence supplied by other Nations involved.”
“Then you are saying, the way the
Megestanu wants a Political crises handled, the President of the United States will
receive only partial information on that crises or false information altogether?”
“Precisely.”
“Give me some examples.”
“I’ll give you three based in your own
country. But the three will be in the distance past, where there are no
survivors to collaborate your story if you decide not to join our elite Centurions.”
“Oh, I see. You are going to let me walk
out of here if I decide not to enlist in your legionnaire squad.”
“Mister Kardeem, let me give you my three
examples, then we will discuss our recruitment procedures, OK?”
“Go right ahead. First, what do I call you
again? Imperator Claudius?”
“You will go a long way in our Centurion
Corps if you show respect to the Princeps and Imperators you are introduced to.
You could even walk out of here alive.”
“Claudius, err, Imperator Claudius. Your
threats don’t frighten me. I’ve been dead inside for years. That is why I’ve
been a mercenary for most of my life. If I decide I don’t like your little
group of God-wannabes, I’ll enjoy the challenge of taking you down before
anyone can snipe me from behind.”
“Very astute Mister Kardeem. But I’m sure
there will be no need for violence. Your profile was thoroughly checked and I
assure you, you would not be here if we felt in the slightest way that you would
not join our little Utopia.”
“See, God-wannabes.”
“The first incident I’ll tell you about is
the attack on Pearl Harbor.”
“Claudius, I’ve heard the conspiracy
theory. Where the radar technician saw the planes coming and his Commanding
Officer waved it off as a training mission of the United States Navy.”
“What you might not have heard Mister Kardeem
is that President Roosevelt, who desperately wanted to enter the War, received
information four days before, that the attack by the Japanese Fleet was
emanate.”
“You’re saying the President new about it and
did nothing? I find that hard to believe.”
“It has been over one hundred years since
the incident, and because of the Freedom of Information Act, you can read all the
documents for yourself Mister Kardeem. And if you do so, why don’t you try to
find out if the Commanding Officer of the radar technician ever was reprimanded
for his failure to act appropriately to the oncoming attack, by confirming any
Navy training missions.”
“I’ll check on it.”
“The next incident is about the one individual
who almost single-handedly destroyed one hundred years of the Megestanu’s
effort to lead us into the New World Order, Richard Milhous Nixon. Once he
became President, he was supposed to escalate the Vietnam War into Cambodia,
Thailand, Laos, and finally Malaysia so we could have had one Nation ruling
over that part of the Asian Continent. This would have made it that much easier
to manipulate the area going forward. But alas, being President made Mister
Nixon think he was out of reach from the Megestanu. His failure to follow
instruction became his downfall, and a lesson to all the Nations of the World.
That if the Megestanu can have the President of the United States dethroned for
his dereliction to us, what would become of Leaders of less influential
empires? The Megestanu has lasted for a thousand years and will continue for a
thousand more.”
“Imperator, you’re Freudian slipped. You
said the Megestanu has lasted for a thousand years and will last for another
thousand. Since you folks like to throw around Latin names for everyone and
everything, you might have heard that the Roman Empire only lasted two thousand
years in one form or another. Now you’re hinting at lasting only a thousand
more years? I thought Utopia was supposed to last forever?”
“Mister Kardeem, sarcasm, really? The last
incident I will relay is the infamous 9/11 attacks on the United States. If you
read your history, then President Bush wanted to take down Saddam Hussein as
President of Iraq. He kept lying to his own people, telling them that Saddam
had weapons of mass destruction and that the United States should unite with
NATO, to destroy his regime. We finally relented since Saddam himself failed to
make peace within his own country with the Kurdish people. The Megestanu are
not fond of any Leader trying to genocide any race of people. To stabilize the
region, we agreed upon a solution which would appease George W. Bush’s personal
vendetta against Saddam Hussein, and in return he would have to occupy
Afghanistan as well.”
“The Middle East has been waging war in
the name of one religion or another for over three thousand years. Why can’t
the Megestanu control that area of the World?”
“Mister Kardeem, religious fervor is
always the x-factor in any equation of uniting the World. Our efforts for a New
World Order is through economic means. Until all those avenues have been exhausted,
then violence can finally be used. And as you plainly know, Afghanistan is
still occupied today.”
“Imperator Claudius. I’m beginning to see
why I have been recruited. You want me, as an Arabic descendant, to take out a Religious Leader who is disrupting your New World
progress in the Middle East.”
“Precisely Mister Kardeem.”
“How do I know you won’t let me out to
dry?”
“Mister Kardeem. We have total faith in
you by your record of past successes. We will let you plan the whole scenario
and if you like you can use your own men, equipment, and contacts. But if you
do, you are the only one joining the Megestanu, and your men must not be
informed of our existence.”
“What is in it for me and my men if I
invite them along?”
“For them, double their normal salary. For
you, something we know you always wanted. Your own private island as your home
base of operations.”
“I can do that. Where do I sign?”
