Chapter 504: The basin is buckled on the head of the United States

readx;

"Mr. President, it's a bit dangerous for us to do this now. George said with some concern: "Now, the public opinion of the whole world is very unfavorable to us. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info≦≧"

Now, the United States is exerting strong pressure on Saudi Arabia to force Saudi Arabia to return its cargo ships and personnel, and its international influence is very great.

"The Saudi Arabians seized our American cargo ship, and as the most powerful country in the world, can we ignore this behavior?" We have to ask the Saudis to return the cargo ship and crew, what's wrong with that? ”

"Yes, this time it was the Saudi Arabians who did something incorrect, how could they raid our American cargo ships and detain our American citizens! This is clearly a challenge to us, the United States! Poyndexter said.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you know, it's because our ship has hit a mine, and the other party went to the rescue, only to find out that this is a ship smuggling arms, and in the case of the crew's resistance, they did so, which is completely in accordance with international law, although I also very much want to know what the truth of the matter is, but why didn't any of you see the potential danger?" George was a little anxious. ≦≧

None of these people felt the danger, because this incident really has nothing to do with the United States, this ship is American, but the United States did not let this ship smuggle arms to Iran at all, although Iraq's strength is an implicit threat to the United States, but supporting Khomeini, who is not reasonable at all, has proved that it will not work at all, and he will turn around and bite the United States at any time.

Who transported this shipload of munitions, the most likely, is the Jews, this matter, the CIA is closely investigating, moreover, the domestic Jewish forces are also active, even President Reagan came to power, it has a lot to do with the support of the domestic Jewish forces, and. Seeing that the next general election is approaching, although President Reagan is very annoyed by the mastermind behind this arms shipment, the balance in his heart is still a little biased, and he will first ask for the ship and crew to come back!

"George, what's at stake?" Vice President Bush asked.

"The smuggling of weapons to Iran has reverberated around the world, in our own country. ≦≧ there are also countless people who want to find out who is behind it. You know, under our propaganda, Iran is already a rogue state through and through. There are several things that Iran has done to us that have broken the hearts of our American people, and that boat and crew are all us Americans. If it were a normal thing, we would have to protect our citizens, but now, we are putting a lot of pressure on Saudi Arabia to think that we have a lot to do with it. ”

"This has nothing to do with us, how can we possibly go to the aid of Khomeini!" Poyndexter said.

"Here's the problem, we know we're never going to go. But do our people know? What will world opinion say? Ladies and gentlemen, the weapons of that ship are all our American-made weapons! "If it turns out that we have a lot to do with the ship's weapons, it will seriously damage the prestige of our government and even threaten our group," George said. ”

"George. You're talking a little serious. Poyndexter said.

All the top brass, with the exception of George, did not notice the implicit danger that the last time the United States exchanged weapons for hostages, under the mediation of Qusay. ≦≧ didn't have much of an impact on the U.S. government, and they have neglected this aspect. They didn't know that in later generations, the Iran-Contra scandal almost ousted President Reagan.

What's more, the current incident has nothing to do with the US government, and they did not participate in this incident at all, so they have nothing to fear at all, and for the US government, in order to show the strength of the US government, it is a natural mission to protect the security of the American people.

They didn't know at all that the Qusai boy in Iraq wanted to put them to death, and the United States was the only one who slandered other countries as terrorists, and they had not yet tried the taste of being slandered.

This time, it was the Times that published the breaking news.

In Western countries, freedom of speech is the main theme, and it is okay to publish any news in your own newspaper, although you may be held accountable by the government afterwards, but for news that can significantly increase the reputation of the newspaper, no matter which editor-in-chief, will not let go of this opportunity. ≦≧

After the news in the Middle East caused a global sensation again, other newspapers were jealous of the Times, and their reporter who had taken a shit luck actually took so many shocking pictures on the spot, accompanied by the text, and the name of the Times immediately rang.

And the follow-up report, no matter how wonderful it is, is not as good as those photos, they are all actively taking action, hoping to get more valuable news.

The next more valuable news, of course, is the list of the weapons on the ship, and the identity of the crew, although they have investigated all aspects, but the final identification is still pending official information.

When he received Bill's press release, the editor-in-chief of The Times sighed, how did this Bill get such useful information?

By bribing Saudi Navy personnel again, Bill finally got what he wanted most: a list of those weapons! It is said that these lists will be announced to the world by the Saudi side at a press conference the next day. ≦≧ at that point, it loses its journalistic value.

So, after Bill got it, he immediately rushed the manuscript and sent it back to London, when Saudi Arabia announced it to the world, the streets of Britain already had these news, what a shocking scene it would be, the Times reporter is the most capable in the world!

Unbeknownst to Bill, this time he was completely trapped.

The editor-in-chief doesn't ask where the news comes from, as long as it's sure that the stuff is true and reliable, it's going to be more explosive news. So, without hesitation, he let the newspaper that had already been typeset be reprinted, and printed the news on the front page of the newspaper. The printing press was also stepping up printing, and the next morning, the newspaper appeared on the streets of England for the first time.

After careful verification by the Peninsula Defense Forces, the arms smuggled by the cargo ship McCain have been checked clearly, and the list is as follows: thermal batteries of the Immortal Bird missile, thirty pieces, spare parts for the F-14 radar, twenty pieces, Sparrow medium-range air-to-air missiles, forty pieces...

The names of all the crew members were also confirmed: Captain, Jew American, Green, First Captain, Jew American, Adam, First Mate, Jew American......

The editor-in-chief made a few changes to Bill's press release, very cleverly putting all the data first, without any description, and for Bill's comments in the back paragraph, it has been removed.

Bill was in the back, commenting on the matter with a gleeful expression.

"From these lists, we can completely find that this arms smuggling is definitely not simple, and the ones in front are spare parts for F-14 fighters and wearing parts for Immortal Bird missiles, and there are parts for F-4 fighters in the back. However, the F-14 parts and the Immortal Bird missile, which are only equipped by the US Navy, are impossible to appear in the international arms smuggling market. Therefore, this arms smuggling is very likely to involve a series of people from the United States. And, based on the route and the identity of the crew, we can speculate that these weapons, most likely, were loaded onto ships in Israel, and we would very much like to ask these two countries, do you know what you are doing? ”

The title that Bill found very striking was the last question.

The editor-in-chief is a senior editor, and he knows what it will mean if he publishes all these words, Britain is a hardcore ally of the United States, and these unfavorable remarks to the United States, if they are published, although they are very exciting to read, but the consequences are also very serious, and these remarks that are not conducive to the interests of the United States, if they are published, will have a great impact on the United States, and in the war in the Malvinas Islands last year, the United States fully supported Britain, so if there is a newspaper in Britain, If the United States dismantles Taiwan, then the consequences will be very serious.

The editor-in-chief knows that the water is deep.

However, newspapers in other countries, even in other countries, do not take so much care of it. This is sensational news, they did not rush ahead of the Times, publish those detailed lists, and later comments, but they must be strong. In particular, France, which is not among the NATO countries, has no scruples in making comments.

This news can be said to be the most explosive news this year, the United States, which has always prided itself on upholding justice and resolutely opposing the Khomeini regime, actually braved the world's condemnation and shipped a shipload of weapons to Iran.

The United States is not involved? How is that possible? What's going on with those F-14 fighter parts? Why American ships?

In contrast, Israel has also been held accountable in a flood of ways, but because of the United States overhead, it is clear that the United States is better suited than Israel for the press to publish powerful news to increase the visibility of its newspapers.

As a result, while newspapers around the world were making a big splash, even some newspapers in the United States began to report one after another, including the news company controlled by Prince Waleed. The rest, mainly Democratic-controlled newspapers, will not forget how President Carter was defeated by Reagan in the first place, and now, since Reagan made the same mistake, they naturally want to use this opportunity to build momentum for next year's election.
