Hassan Moghaddam sat with other members
of the national komiteh in the markazi-e-ghaibi . He had been a
member of the pasadaran from the beginning and while as an engineer
he had helped develop the zamburak man portable missile systems. He
had done his share of front line fighting and had the shrapnel
wounds, and a bit of shrapnel still in his thigh, to prove it.
Hassan had been following the news out
of America and knew that the American people were sick of the
occupation as well as the fact that unemployment was on the rise.
Even while the war machine that did the fighting and even planning
were getting updates and the pentagon deployed ever newer models of
there war-machines , fewer human troops were arriving. Meanwhile the
leading candidate in the American presidential election was of the
libertarian party and was promising to withdraw all American soldiers
from all foreign theaters.
So when Hassan stood up to speak he
urged the pasadaran to follow a strategy of going after the American
soldiers and ignoring the American A.I. war machines , telling the
other members of the Komiteh that this was a war to be fought to be
fought on American television. Pointing out hat shooting down a dozen
a dozen UAVs did not get on CNN but kill one soldier and they would
interview everyone who ever knew him. It was a close vote and Hassan
lost. Hassan was disappointed but nine weeks later the American and
various European stock markets and banking systems crashed. The
Chinese and Arabs cashed out their American bonds and hyperinflation
kicked in. The libertarian candidate won the White House , his
first order was the withdrawal of all American soldiers from foreign
shores. Starting with the Iranian Theater of operation. Five hundred
thousand AI fighting machines were to be left behind until
arrangements for their removal could be made.
