If it weren't for the comparison meaning that my nation were secret Nazis...oh, wait, I have been saying they've been sliding towards a fascist state for a few decades, carry on then.

Simon: Indeed, the war on terror would be a very different beast, but that's why I'm running with it because it will be interesting. Plus, it's a (mostly) reasonable follow-up tot he terrorist attacks.

Hell, perhaps this conference will serve as a springboard for the UN-analogue.

So everyone's having a straight up cartel war break out? Heh. I may have to have Agent Westen play a part in how it was provoked as part of his own mission....

I get the feeling that some of these spooks are going to wind up running into each other in amusingly bizarre ways.

A highly-secretive group of spies and assassins, answering to a nation that is already know for being somewhat batshit-insane, looking to escalate this cartel war?

Siege, just so you know my team used locally sourced explosives, absolutely nothing traceable to Orion. Feel free to trace it to some other nation, or another San Doradan company of course :D

I'm thinking we'll have the anti-terrorism conference in April, gives us time to work out what will happen. If anyone has any suggestions regarding what direction it will take, feel free to PM them to me.

Then I suppose we'll trace it to the local source and take it from there :D.

Ah nuts :D Well, we bought it from another cartel. Stirring the pot and all that. And you'll find the guy we bought it from is now dead somewhere.

NOBODY BLOWS UP MY PEOPLE BUT ME!

I like.

Unfortunately, I can't come up with an inspirational spark for getting into this plot line, and I would like to. Well, maybe. Come to think of it, the GAV does have a homicidal attitude toward drug dealing.

In Cali? I doubt it pays to be a Umerian guest worker in Cali; their per capita GDP may or may not be higher than ours... but not enough to justify living in such a minefield.

More likely to be the GAV attempting to kill everyone even tangentially related with drug sales in Umeria, really.
