    The US Declares War on the Middle East!

    The President of the United States has returned from an emergency joint session of Congress this morning in which war has been declared on the Middle East.

    Protests have taken place across the United States over rising oil prices, and experts are warning that US oil reserves cannot cope with the the public demand. An anonymous source inside has leaked a report that details a series of planned rises in the cost of crude oil over the next twelve months.

    Members of the United Nations are calling for sanctions against the United States, citing the unprovoked aggression against the Middle East. Impatient with these proceedings, the United States has withdrawn from the United Nations to seek out and create a new world coalition. Sources inside the White House have hinted that the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom may soon follow suit and remain a strong ally of the United States.

    China has long been an importer of Middle Eastern oil, and rumors persist that they may have some involvement in the increased prices of oil and reduced export to the United States.

    The Middle Eastern countries have banded together and formed their own Middle Eastern Coalition to combat the aggressions of the United States. It appears that battlegrounds will exist on both Middle Eastern and China soil.

    uhh, yeah BS, Firstoff. the U.S. is now and more then likely always will be a member of the U.N. second war would not be declared on "the middle east" george bush isn't stupid nor is congress. that would make him look childish. the U.S. KNOWS china is a cause for increased gas prices because China has started consuming more oil then us and the cream filling of the matter is we have alot more to worry about then iraq and Iran, for example North korea, who still has not shut down their nuclear weapons program although ordered to by the U.S. and the U.N. besides that if it where true. it would be all over the news. it's not, nice try though.

    P.S.: korea was supposed to have its nuclear program shut down last weekend it has yet to be done and war with korea is on the horizon quite possibly.

    Folks... there is NO trojan in the link. That link was initially a subscription link (rss) to a TG blog. The link has been updated to point directly to the blog for those not familiar with rss.

    please if TG is releasing some thing here (eg TG times) please let me know that it was not this link...
    There is no trojan in the link. Although, if you got that alarm you might want to look into what your browser is using to handle RSS feeds. You could very well have a hostile RSS application on your machine or your browser is configured to use an untrusted external handler for RSS.

    The TG link itself is clean though.

    i realised the story was BS because Tony Blair is in PMQ's which are always suspended when a major incident is about to happen...
    What the hell is wrong with you guys?! How could you not get that this was a false yet amusing story from "Middle Eastern Coalition". Did you not get the Battlefield references? Christ. Websites must have a field day with you on April Fool's.

    Re: The US Declares War on the Middle East!

    My guess is that is a try to promote a BF2 (mod) league. Some kind of "viral" posting introducing the fictional backstory of the league.

    I could be wrong here as i noticed that the "Reporter" is member of the Battlefield 2 - Scenario Development Team group with asch and E-Male. So this could be something completely different.

    Someone is doing their research.

    Umm...does no one read E-Male's posts with videos referring to himself as a humble embedded reporter? While I have no evidence to support the claim outside of coincidence, my first thought was that this was a post by E-male until I noticed the name.
