[War] Saudi" "Aftermaths"

[Pat B]

"Aftermaths"
King Ali Bin Bashir Al Saud


=Hostage scene=

Ali walked out as soldiers hustled the terrorists out in handcuffs, or
flexicuffs. Reporters caught the images and sent them around the world.

Hostages were met by ambulances and medical crews who treated the
wounded and took care of the dead.

The young major who ran the assault team was the same officer who had
briefed him and was talking to a group of soldiers before he headed over
to Ali.

"First of all, that was stupid, you shoudlnt' be here."

"You are Major."

Ibramhin Sadir nodded, "Yes but this is my JOB, and you're it for the 
royal family, there is no other king, and to be frank...what you're 
doing is needed, if not we're going to be third world in a couple of 
decades."

That got Ali's attention, "Major..."

"Sadir sir, Ibramhin bin Mushif Sadir..."

He nodded then it hit him, "Mushif Sadir, he's living in London right?"

The major nodded, "Yes sir, he had a strong disagreement with the power 
of the clerics and he was charged with blasphemy...."

Ali nodded, "I'd like to meet your father, I was at the University of 
Chicago when that broke out, my father was very angry over that whole 
thing, he thought the criticisms were valid and it ended up getting 
smacked down."

Then he looked at the young officer, "Major I have a job for you.  Right 
now there is a problem with out military, there's an extremest element 
in several units, I need someone to knock it out of the park, and that 
is you... Colonel."

That got his attention, "Sir I'm a Major...."

"Not anymore, you're honest, and you're a patriot.  I'll take that any day."

"What is my mission sir?"

"Root out the extremest element, if they can't do their jobs fairly, I 
don't want them here."

"Yes sir."  Then he crossed his arms, "Now if you ever come to a live 
assault scene again I will personally kick your as up and down the 
desert.  You ARE the house of Saud, that's it you die we've got more 
damned problems and the last thing we need is an extremist cabal in charge."

Ali nodded, "Understood Colonel, I'll have the order signed, and call 
your father, tell him the new King wants to speak to him and will 
guarentee safe passage."

The media were clamoring and Ali walked to the buzz of cameras

Actions

1) Begin looking for new government ministers. Search far and wide and 
get the best we can men or women.

2) Appoint a personal "troubleshooter" to examine and root out radical 
elements in the Saudi military, as long as they can do their job they 
can practice however they want if they are providing support, aid, or 
comfort to terrorist elemants cashier and arrest them.
