Chapter 319 Mutual Protection of the Southwest, Separation of States
When the missile was flying towards Los Angeles, Tony Stark had already put on the battle armor, but Jarvis suddenly caught a colorful light flying towards missile, and then saw the missile's trajectory change and fly toward space.
“Who is this?” Tony, with a slovenly beard, frowned.
"Sir, the missile flies into space, and the crisis in Los Angeles is resolved." Jarvis made his judgment.
"You are wrong. The crisis has just begun. It will be a big crisis throughout the United States." Tony looked helpless.
Although he was rich, he was unable to stop the Northeastern financial consortium from attacking the Southwest consortium.
The moment this missile takes off, it no longer matters whether it hits Los Angeles. The California consortium will be separated from the Northeastern financial consortium, and there will be no trust anymore.
This is why Lin Hao deliberately chose Los Angeles, because he was sure that the financial consortium in northeastern America would use nuclear bombs to solve the problem.
Whether the nuclear bomb explodes or not, it doesn’t matter, all that matters is an attitude.
The ten major financial groups have something in common, which is their indifference to the life and death of civilians and their pursuit of profits. The latter is doomed to have irresolvable conflicts with each other.
"We can't go on like this!"
The directors of the California consortium, who had narrowly escaped death, immediately held an internal online meeting.
The patriarch of the Chiannini family who runs Bank of America said categorically: "The Jews in the Northeast have not only controlled our voting rights, but now even want to control our lives."
In the world of capital, Any consortium that wants to develop and grow must have its own financial core. The most common one is to open its own bank.
The Chiannini family are descendants of Italian immigrants. They founded the Bank of Italy in the early 20th century. In the 1930s, they merged with the Bank of America in California and changed their name to Bank of America.
Through the arms trade during World War II, the bank surpassed the Chase National Bank of New York at the time and became the largest commercial bank in the United States.
However, the largest voting rights in Bank of America are now controlled by the Morgan consortium and the First Citibank consortium, and the California consortium's power in Bank of America is far less than before.
In addition to the financial field, even the arms industry on which it was founded, such as Lockheed Aircraft Company, Litton Industries, and Northrop Corporation, also had part of its shares seized by the Northeastern financial consortium.
The situation of the California consortium is actually similar to that of the Texas consortium, which also emerged with the help of World War II.
“Unite!” The patriarch of the Fargo family from the San Francisco area proposed: “Unite with the ‘red necks’ of Texas to form the Southwest Alliance to formally compete with the Jews in the Northeast.”
"This is separatism..." The patriarchs of other families hesitated slightly.
"What can we do? If we let the Jews do it a few more times, we will lose our lives." The head of the Chiannini family said fiercely: "They took action first, so of course we have to fight back!"
"I think it's better to put up the flag first and express our attitude. If we want to move forward further, let's first see the reaction of the Jews and the people in the west."
People always like to compromise.
This opinion was finally unanimously recognized.
As a result, the California consortium and the Texas consortium began frequent secret meetings. The leaders of the Texas consortium were all "young and energetic" newcomers. When they heard the proposal, they immediately agreed.
They have long disliked the Jews in the Northeast, not to mention that the Jews had bombed their base camp in Houston.
On the first day of 2011, California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas in the southwestern United States suddenly announced the establishment of the "Southwest Alliance" to form a unified discussion and coordination body (that is, state government United), ostensibly to jointly respond to extraordinary crises and help each other, known as "Southwest Mutual Protection."
In fact, anyone who knows a little bit about politics knows that this is going to be against the provisional federal government in the Northeast.
After the news came out, the whole world was in an uproar.
Countries around the world know that the United States has had a hard time in the past two years, but they never expected that internal conflicts have accumulated to the extent that they can give rise to separatist forces.
The moment the interim government in the northeast received the news, it convened a denouncement meeting against the four southwest states. They called together all the legislators, generals, and politicians from the four southwest states in the interim government to start fierce criticism.
“Have your brains been eaten by Indian zombies? Do you want the whole world to laugh at the secession at this time?”
These congressmen from the four southwest states, The generals and politicians have already received the opinions conveyed within the family. They know that division may not be a good idea, but it is currently the most effective way to express their stance.
The Northeastern financial consortium has been suppressing them for more than half a century. It is simply wishful thinking to beg them away from the idea of annexing themselves.
The words of a great man from the East could not be more appropriate at this time.
“If you seek peace through struggle, peace will survive; if you seek peace through compromise, you will perish in peace.”
If we continue to compromise, there may not be anyone to help intercept the next nuclear bomb.
Besides, war is not a bad thing. Only war can profoundly change the current situation and help them completely break free from the shackles of the Northeastern consortium. Anyway, those who died were all low-class people.
"The moment the nuclear bomb took off, the whole world was already watching our joke!" Congressmen from the four southwestern states sneered: "Is there any government in the world that would easily drop nuclear bombs on its own land?"
< br>"It was you who destroyed the Federal Constitution!"
"I have already said that the nuclear bomb is to kill the damned Indian souls. Even if Los Angeles is damaged, we can be responsible for helping to rebuild it." The representative of the squid was high-sounding.
"Reconstruction?" The generals from the four southwest states sneered: "After reconstruction, will it naturally become your industry?"
The Squid representatives were speechless, but they immediately began to sing a high-pitched tone: " You are destroying America’s strength and the situation is collapsing. You will be America’s sinners!”
"How come some people didn't think about damaging the power of the United States when they pressed the nuclear bomb launcher?" Representatives from the four southwestern states sneered and retorted.
The already divisive situation cannot be restored with a few words, unless the financial consortium in the Northeast is willing to transfer part of its interests and use real money to buy back the heart of the Southwest Consortium.
However, if the stingy Jews want to spit out the meat they have swallowed, it is better to pray for the resurrection of Jesus and kill Judas directly.
The debate over the location of the provisional government was destined to be fruitless, but the influence of the "Southwestern Mutual Protection" spread instantly.
In the past two and a half years, the domestic situation in the United States has been deteriorating.
Sadako worked tirelessly to expand the ranks of folk father-in-laws. These guys, good and bad, had already made the American people restless.
The method of summoning the devil was spread by those who had participated in the ritual summoning and survived. It did not end with the disappearance of Washington. On the contrary, the Americans who felt threatened put aside their fear of evil rituals and chose to pursue extraordinary power. .
After the "New Ninja Sect" entered the country, they hunted and killed American celebrities, further exacerbating tensions in the United States.
The most intuitive reaction is that over the past two years, domestic arms sales in the United States have surged several times.
The "Southwest Mutual Protection" is like a signal, completely lifting the fig leaf of the United States and making the American people clearly aware of the extent of the crisis.
The disadvantages of the federal state are clearly revealed at this time.
After seeing the four southwest states forming an alliance, Florida, Georgia, and Alabama in the southeast also jumped out to form the "Florida League", and the process of separatism among the states was out of control.
Blatant local forces such as the "Northwest Mutual Protection" and the "Central Alliance" soon appeared.
The situation collapsed so quickly that Carol and others were shocked and difficult to understand.
Phil Coulson had just recruited his old colleague Melinda May into his extraordinary team, but in the blink of an eye, his beloved country was divided!
"What the hell? Why did it become like this?"
Carol was just a soldier before and could not understand the changes in the political situation at all. Although she had seen many alien civilizations, those with high Aliens who use technological weapons to fight hand-to-hand combat may have political wisdom inferior to that of village chiefs on Earth.
"Obviously, it was the nuclear bomb in Los Angeles that made Californians no longer trust the federal government." Melinda probably inherited the Chinese people's political sensitivity and quickly found the crux.
But it’s useless even if they find it, they can’t go back.
"There is probably someone behind the Indian kid who is giving him guidance." Colson gritted his teeth and said, "Even if he comes to New York, it will not lead to today's situation."
If you come to New York to cause trouble, at most some people will die. The Jews who run the financial consortium may not be willing to grow mushrooms in New York. Even if they are willing, other local consortiums will praise them for their "high moral integrity", which will not create the current centrifugal situation at all.
The mastermind behind the scenes clearly took advantage of the human weakness of the Jews who take advantage of them.
"Ah!!!" Carol was furious and shouted angrily: "I'm just here to be a superhero, not to do politics!"
The current situation is beyond her ability. Category, if there is a clear enemy, she can fly over at the speed of light and destroy it. But now, Carol can't tell who is the enemy and who is a friend.
As an excellent agent, Phil Coulson was also unable to solve the current situation, which made him sigh: "It would be great if Director Fury was still here."
It's not that Nick Fury has the ability to solve it, but at least someone gives him an order, and he only needs to execute it without having to worry about it.
Nick Fury, who is longing for Coulson, is currently heading towards the solar system on a Makrue spacecraft.
The "Makru 4" star is extremely far away from the solar system. The space jump technology is different from Kama Taj's magic and the gap in the space gem. It is not a point-to-point movement in space, but a path connecting two places. For fast lanes, the voyage in the lane still takes time.
So when Nick Fury returned to Earth on the Makrue spacecraft, he was shocked to find that his beloved America was already falling apart.
"America, will it cease to exist?"
