Chapter 1801 Bombing of Port Ashhuba

At a time when all countries in the world are watching the movements of the Americans and are watching with anticipation the Americans' dispatch of their aircraft carrier squadrons to the Taiwan Strait, the Americans have no movement, which means that they are quite lacking in stamina.

The behavior of the U.S. government and the military can't help but make people a little wondering: Could it be ...... The Americans are silver-like wax gun heads, and when the Chinese respond so toughly, they are soft?

It is not surprising that these people have such thoughts in their hearts, because the completely different methods of the Americans before and after are really incomprehensible: At the beginning, they aggressively expressed that they would sell weapons to Taiwan, and it was clearly stated that they were directly interfering in China's internal affairs -- of course, no one would say this directly -- and then they made a series of unprecedentedly tough statements, giving everyone the feeling that the matter had reached a point when it was about to break out, and that there was a very high possibility that China and the United States would go into flames. But when China, which has always been weak, suddenly responded toughly, the United States suddenly became soft overnight, what is going on?

It was indeed quite confusing, but after only one day, it dawned on everyone

On November 24, the US Government announced that after an investigation by the US Department of Commerce, China's exports to the United States of tires, mechanical and electrical products, light industrial products, household appliances and other 342 kinds of products in 12 categories are suspected of unfair competition and are suspected of dumping. The U.S. government will impose punitive fines ranging from 12 percent to 42 percent on each of the 342 products.

As soon as the US Government's official "declaration of war" came out, the whole world was in an uproar

Everyone knows that with the continuous increase in the overall overall strength of the United States, Americans have always liked to use their fists to solve problems over the years, but now, it seems that Americans are planning to give up their fists and plan to solve problems in another way, which seems a bit unreasonable.

As for why the Americans did not send their warships to Taiwan's east coast or even the Taiwan Strait to show off their force and show their military muscles, although the United States did not make any response, thinking of the hasty decision made by the United States to withdraw suddenly during the last Taiwan Strait crisis, people can't help but think that perhaps the Chinese have a powerful weapon in their hands that can greatly threaten the US aircraft carrier formation.

Only then did all the countries understand that in the face of China's previous tough statements, the US government did not relent, but was furious in the face of China, a challenger who could not help itself, and the feeling was that the Americans had raised the banner of their most powerful weapon against China: economic warfare

The world is getting more and more lively. Looking at the further escalation of friction between China and the United States, everyone can't help but look forward more and more: when the Americans want to use political means to forcefully subdue the Chinese, the Chinese also use political means to push back the tough; Now that the Americans have raised the banner of economic warfare, what will the Chinese government do in the face of the United States, a behemoth that controls nearly a quarter of the world's wealth?

――――――――――――――――――――――――

What's interesting is that when the friction between China and the United States is getting hotter and hotter, and it is very likely that the gun will go off, an explosion will make the whole world stunned.

On November 26, at 11:43 a.m. local time in Baghdad, two small trucks loaded with TNT high explosives rushed into the Kuwaiti port of Al Shubai, one loaded with a truck full of TNT explosives rushed into the crowd unloading a supply ship of the United States and British forces, and the other vehicle crashed into the arms supply merchant ship named "Byron Sea".

As the main logistical material for the US military to supply weapons, ammunition, food, and other materials to various US military bases in Kuwait, the port of Ashhuba is also the main port for the US-British coalition forces to unload all kinds of weapons and equipment in Kuwait, and it plays a pivotal role in the US war against Iraq.

Two trucks loaded with TNT high explosives caused great damage to the port of Ashhuba and the crew, and the truck that exploded in the crowd leveled everything within 500 meters of itself as the center, and all living things within 1000 meters were killed, and only those who were 1500 meters away survived, but it was also accompanied by various explosion syndromes.

But this was not the worst of the worst, the most serious was the damage caused by the car that hit the Byrunsi: the violent explosion detonated all kinds of ammunition on the 50,000-ton Byrunsi, and the violent explosion turned Byrency into a pile of scrap metal at the bottom of the sea in just 30 seconds. ,

But this is not the most serious, the most serious thing is that the series of violent explosions of ammunition on the Byron West also greatly damaged the function of Port Ashhuba, although the ammunition did not explode at the same time, but exploded one after another like firecrackers, but the explosion of a full 20,000 tons of ammunition still destroyed the entire infrastructure of Port Ashbay, even according to the most optimistic estimates, it will take at least three months to restore the most basic functions of Port Ashhuba

Three months later? It may have been two and a half months since the retaliatory military action against Iraq planned by the United States came to an end

In this bombing, the property damage of the US-British coalition forces and Kuwait is conservatively estimated to be more than $3 billion

Of course, compared with the loss of materials, equipment, and property, the loss of personnel is the most fatal, in this bombing, there are nearly 100 GIs of the United States and Britain, more than 200 missing or missing, and more than 500 soldiers have been injured in various ways, the most serious of which is hearing and internal organ problems.

This bombing can be called the worst single heinous incident since the United States launched the Iraq War

The news reached the United States as soon as it came, and the whole United States was stunned in shock

When he heard the whole news, Bush Jr., who was in a reverie Chinese was thinking about how he would succumb to his feet at that time, suddenly fainted...... The contrast between before and after was so drastic that Bush Jr. finally couldn't bear it anymore and simply fainted.

"Find out who did the revenge Lao Tzu wants to take revenge and come back" Bush Jr., who had just woken up, yelled with a hideous face, and he knew very well in his heart that if this matter could not be quickly resolved and quickly and effectively dealt with, he would probably be the only president in the history of the United States who was ousted before completing his term of office.

I can't afford to lose that person, more importantly, if this matter is not solved well, the power groups behind me will also suffer heavy losses immediately, and the other power groups will not give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, whether it is for themselves or for the huge interest groups behind them, they must figure out who did this in the shortest possible time, and quickly make a satisfactory result.

"Has anyone or any group claimed responsibility for this bombing?" Blood-red eyes stared at Rumsfeld, who rushed over urgently for this matter, and Bush Jr. asked through gritted teeth.

"Not yet." Rumsfeld's old face was also trembling with excitement...... It's more of a gas.

"How could it not be?" Angry George W. Bush chased after the bed with a heavy fist: No one admits this, doesn't he say that he can't find a chance even if he wants to find someone to take revenge? Well, or maybe I can't find a chance for the time being?

That's not a good thing.

Rumsfeld was silent.

Those organizations that have to claim to be doing big things are their own, and they didn't pop up this time? George W. Bush was a little surprised. It is true that these terrorists or terrorist organizations want to become famous and go crazy, but they also have to see who they have provoked and what they have done

"Mobilize all the forces we can muster, and find out this matter for me as quickly as possible," Bush Jr. said, pointing to CIA Director Porter Bush, who rushed to the scene. Goss, "Mr. Goss, give you three days to come back with a preliminary answer for me, or you can write your resignation." ”

"Yes, Mr. President" Porter. Goss replied stiffly, but his mouth was bitter, three days? Can I find a hair in three days? But what did he say at this time?

――――――――――――――――――――――――

Naturally, the US Government wanted to conceal such an important matter, so it simply held a press conference to explain the situation.

After suffering such a big loss, the reaction of American society is naturally conceivable, and the excitement of the masses is already light, and some extreme guys have even begun to clamore for the direct razing of the bases of those damned terrorists with nuclear bombs, so as to avenge the innocent sacrifices of those American GIs.

As for the media in the United States, after a short period of losing their voices, they immediately became excited like being injected with 1000ml of adrenaline, provoking, angry, shouting, speculating, and doubting...... All the tricks were used by the American media at this time, and it seemed that everyone who was not an American was the object of their suspicion, and every person who was suspected should be destroyed without hesitation. ,

The whole of America has become a powder keg that has entered a state of countdown, and by the way, the timer is broken, and it may explode at any time.

Under the watchful eyes of the whole United States and even the world, the preliminary findings were obtained in just one and a half days.

The direct economic losses caused to the United States and the United Kingdom by the amines of Ashhuba are more than $3.5 billion and the indirect economic losses cannot be calculated, and are conservatively estimated at no less than $8 billion.

And that's not the most important thing, the most important thing is that the weapons and ammunition delivered by the Byron West are an important guarantee for the launch of a US military operation against Iraq, which will have to be delayed after not knowing that the damn bastard launched this "despicable" terrorist attack...... Because of this, Iraq is naturally listed by the Americans as the number one suspect and murderer.

After the investigation, it was found that the two trucks that rushed into the port of Ashhuba at that time had been carefully modified, not only changed to unmanned remote driving, but also replaced with rubber tires and replaced with all-steel shells, and at the same time installed protective steel plates on all parts that were affected by bullet attacks.

The valiant American soldiers of the time must have fought back resolutely, as evidenced by the numerous bullet holes found in the wreckage of the car found.

According to the calculations of experts after the explosion, the two trucks each carried 2 tons of TNT explosives

Two tons of TNT explosives, plus 20,000 tons of ammunition on the Byron Sea...... Everyone gasped, no wonder it would cause such a big loss.

But after the horror, the Americans are more angry and panicked: the damned terrorists have now learned to arm themselves with high technology, and not to launch suicide bombings like before, and if the damned terrorists do the same in the future, wouldn't it mean that the number of damned terrorists will be greatly reduced?

The worst thing is, when these damn terrorists get used to this trick, will they do the same in the United States? This is not impossible, the damned terrorist incident in the United States, the Americans are still discolored, even for their own safety, the American people absolutely do not allow such a situation.

This will be an unimaginably huge threat to the United States, no, absolutely not, the United States is like a wild dog that has been rudely popped with chrysanthemums, and suddenly grinning and jumping up and down

After all this was sorted out, the whole of America quickly and unanimately unanimous in unimaginable speed: seize him, hang him, and throw him into the sea to drown and feed the sharks when a terrorist finds him

Several states that do not allow private ownership of firearms have also amended their laws in the shortest possible time to allow residents to possess firearms to protect their personal safety, and some radical states have even allowed residents to possess heavy automatic weapons such as general-purpose machine guns

At this moment, the Americans, who took the initiative to tear off the coat of democracy and freedom, finally exposed the essence of their founders: it is a country composed of hooligans, criminals, and villains, and they usually talk about gentlemanly manners, but once they find that something threatens them, these guys completely restore their original colors.

――――――――――――――――――――――――

Of all the Americans, CIA Director Porter Brown. Goss's life was probably the worst, President George W. Bush only gave him three days, and now two days have passed, and nothing has progressed. But now, Potter. Goss should be happy right here at Potter. Goss was even ready to write his resignation report when his turnaround came.

"Mr. Director, Mr. Director" The delicate female secretary rushed in, ignoring Potter. Goss looked annoyed, "We know who did it"

"What...... What the? "Potter. Goss didn't react at first, but immediately realized what his secretary was saying, and immediately a spirit stood up, not caring about his image, grabbed his secretary's arm, and yelled, "Who? Who is it? ”

"It's Ben. Osama bin Laden, Qatari TV ...... "Excited female secretary doesn't care at all about being beaten by Potter. Goss scratched his aching arm and said excitedly.

The words are not finished, Potter. Goss grabbed the remote control on the table and turned on the TV - as the director of the CIA, Porter. It's no surprise that the television in Goss's office is able to pick up a signal from Qatar's Al Jazeera -- a familiar but yet familiar TV set on the screen. Goss hated the bearded Arab on the screen: "Yes, we in Al-Qaeda are responsible for the bombing of the Kuwaiti port of Al Shubai on the 26th......",

The following words, Potter. Goss didn't listen to a word, he only knew one thing: he could sit longer as the director of the CIA.

Of course, there is no doubt that the video, which is being broadcast on Al Jazeera in Qatar, naturally reached the United States in the first place.

Before the United States' global intelligence network was launched, a news item from Qatar's Al Jazeera TV station made the American people who had a fever in their heads and glasses in their hot heads suddenly poured cold water on their heads.

On 28 November, Qatar's Al Jazeera television station broadcast a video from al-Qaida in which the spiritual leader of al-Qaeda's response, Ben Al Qaeda. In the video, bin Laden said he was responsible for the Nov. 26 bombing in Kuwait's port of Al Shubai, acknowledging that the bombing was orchestrated and carried out by al-Qaeda.

In this 50-minute video, Ben. Osama bin Laden said that this terrorist attack is only the beginning, and that there will be a series of terrorist attacks against the American people and the US ** team in the future, and as for why terrorist attacks are being launched against the American people, it is because the American people are not innocent, and they are accomplices of the US government's war against the Arab people.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Lan laughed

This guy is very interesting, but I don't know what kind of expression the Americans will have on their faces when they see this scene? Disagree? Afraid? Or is it something inappropriate? I'm afraid it's more of a horror, thinking about the series of things that Uncle Ben did in the United States before that made him "proud", and the huge impact on American society...... The corners of Zhang Lan's lips curled slightly: This thing is really worth looking forward to.

Of course, poor George W. Bush was not expecting anything at all, and he smashed the contents of his study again.
