News From Around The Globe presents Invention of the Mushroom Cloud.
Today, China makes history, showcasing their brand new Mushroom Cloud Generator T5X in the nation of Cameroon. The people of Congo, who had recently liberated the people of Cameroon from a state of tyranny in order to bring a new brand of tyranny, were briefly spotted cheering the successful launching of this new device. Unfortunately technical difficulties have prevented us from contacting our man in the field, Herbert B Deddenfield, for further reports.
In other news, President Ruttinger requested mention of Kenya in the next issue of NFATG. Happy to oblige, Mr President! Kenya is one of our favorite countries. Filled to the brim with National Parks and Reserves where many exotic (to the rest of us) animals hang out and do animal things for our amusement. Also of interest is Mount Kenya, which rises as high as 17,000 feet above sea level. This makes an excellent location from which to see the fireworks taking place in Cameroon.
Meanwhile, in South America, the honeymoon between Argentina and Bolivia is apparently over. After the rather rude dismantling of Chile, the two sides are now taking aggressive action against one another. Taking advantage of the situation, Ecuador sneaks troops into La Paz. However, there appears to be some confusion as troops from Quito were mobilized to support friendlies in Lima only to discover they were no longer there. There may be some dissent in the ranks.
For our ongoing segment, "What the Irkutsk?" reports from the field indicate oil reserves from Russian fleets off the coast of Vladivostok were re-routed to the Irkutsk Air Force base just in time for the jets to be cleared for take-off this spring. Sadly, the loss of oil meant these fleets were grounded for at least this season while Chinese and Japanese units moved to surround them. Unexpected treachery or a clever ruse? Find out next time on "What the Irkutsk?".
Finally, this years Technology Summit was a rousing success. Four nations received nuclear technology, which doesn't even count Canada getting it twice. Sadly, not all customers went home happy as Italy was left stranded by France. All indications are that failed preliminary testing of their own Mushroom Cloud Generator may have contributed to the miscommunication.
That's all for now. Until next time, good night and good news.
