[quote][center][b]Statement from His Majesty the King of Great Britain[/b][/center]

Several weeks ago, Great Britain was attacked by an unknown assailant who deployed Chemical Weaponry against British cities. The investigation into who launched the attack was long and and it strained relations with other Nations. First of all we determined that the attack was definately of Arctic origin. Our own RADAR stations would of detected an attack from within Europe. The United Federation of the East informed us of strange RADAR signatures over North America in the Arctic circle and had dispatched jets to investigate, to no avail. Germanic and Canadian RADAR confirmed the UFE statement. Using satellite data, the gathered RADAR data a rough launch trajectory was predicted by our military. The predicted trajectory places the launch point at a Blue Heaven airbase in Starwind, something which satellite images collected from a source who wishes to remain unidentified at this time, confirm.

Blue Heaven, a nation that in its war against the Commonwealth of Canada deployed Biological Weapons against civilian targets to gain the upperhand in the war. Moreover Blue Heaven lost a significant chunk of land, when Emperor Bonaparte, siezed the Blue Heaven held territory of Nunavut. Emperor Bonaparte is the father of Queen Jessica, my wife. To further reinforce my point, Blue Heaven recieved the territory back from the Commonwealth of Canada soon after they declared Independance.

It is the opinion of MI6 and the MoD, that Blue Heaven initiated the attack against Great Britain in an effort to assassinate the Queen to end the Bonaparte dynasty through the use of a massive chemical attack.

In response to this agressive action taken against the United Kingdom, it leaves me with no choice.
After a long meeting with Parliament this morning and my Ministers just before this Statement, I have no choice but to recognise a state of war between Blue Heaven and the United Kingdom of Great Britain.

The mission goal of the United Kingdom will be to remove Blue Heavens ability to wage war against Great Britain.
We do not call apon our allies to assist in this conflict.[/quote]

[b]Operation Warlock - 20:00pm GMT[/b]
In Svalbard five squadrons of GB-3 Widowmakers took off supported by aerial fuel tankers to get them across the Arctic ocean and back. Each Widowmaker was armed with four HARM anti radiation missiles, two AMRAAM missiles for any air to air combat encountered and two external fuel tanks aswell as their ECM pods. Each squadron was escorted by two eTyphoons, the RAF's newest electronic attack aircraft. Four AWAC's joined the strike force as it streaked over the Pole.

In Fort Watch Tower, Franz Josef Land, the entire Second Strategic Bomber Wing comprised of fifty GB-4 Lancaster Stealth Lancers lifted off and began their flight towards the northern coast of Blue Heaven, each bomber sporting two Internal Mounted Long Range Rotary Air to Surface Missile Launchers: Shoots four long range cruise missile launchers (1000 kilometers range) OR eight medium range surface skimming reduced cross section cruise missiles (300 kilometers range). Their first sorty would mean an armament of four Tomahawk Cruise Missiles per bomber. This force alone would be able to strike Blue Heaven with two hundred cruise missiles. To escort the GB-4's, the Fourth air superiority Wing would be deployed alongside the bombers to babysit them to the launch point.

These would be the opening strikes of the war.
______________________________________________

[b]Some time later...[/b]

The Lancasters reached their launch point 1000km away from Blue Heaven's northern most coast and using satellite data the bombers released their cruise missiles onto Blue Heavens RADAR network across its Northern territories before turning around and flying back to Fort Watchtower to refuel and re-arm.

The subsonic missiles would take a few more hours to reach the targets, but they had all be programmed to attack RADAR stations across the entire North Coastline of Starwind Province.

[b]Elsewhere in the Arctic circle, approx 100 miles from BH Radar Coverage.[/b]

The Widowmakers had been specially designed for this sort of mission. Built with highly specialized materials such as Polygraphite,it comes with a reduced cross section, and its design. The entire body is a stealth shaped, The Delta wing shape is to increase maneuverability and its stealth. The plane is covered with a RAM coating. It is equipped with super cruise engines which are given extra protection on acoustic, thermal, and infrared spectrum minimizing alternative detection.

Diving down way below RADAR, the Widowmakers continued on their mission towards Blue Heaven and would probably remain undetected until it was too late. Ther mission was to use their HARM missiles against the BH Air defence network for Starwind province. The first aim was to get within range of firing the first missiles at pre selected targets by SATINT.

The five eTyphoons that were attached to the wing, whilst not stealthy had dived below RADAR long before they could of been detected and as they moved the eT's would use their onboard jamming equipment supplemented by ECM pods to jam enemy radar and transmit false positions confusing enemy air defenses while transmitting false locations back. The aerial tankers flew back to Svalbard to be replaced with a fresh set of refuellers.

[b]Svalbard[/b]

The Third Strategic Bomber Wing, made up of fifty GB-5 Aurora Supersonic Strategic Stealth Bombers were making final preperations for its attack with two more squadrons of Widowmakers. The bombers would be armed with AGM-158 JASSM missiles.

4 Para and 5 Para, two Parachute regiments were waiting in the billet houses for the order to be given to mount up. Over 100 C-130's were massed between Svalbard international airport and RAF Svalbard. At 100 men per aircraft, this force alone would land ten thousand soldiers into Starwind province when the time came for it. In Franz Josef Land, a further 15,000 Paratroopers would be waiting as a further 150 C-130's made their way from Scotland, to Svalbard and then across to FJL, the entire fleet of C-130's was being used.

The Ark Royal and Swann battlegroups sailed North to Svalbard.


OOC
Summary because my war RP skills suck.
-50 stealth fighter bombers with HARMS, with five ECW fighter are flying below BH RADAR to attack the anti air defences.
-50 stealth bombers, at around the same time that the above fighter bombers dip below RADAR, the bombers fire 200 tomahawk cruise missiles at RADAR stations across Starwind Province 1000km away from BH's coast, before turning around back to base.

"All of Britain's proof only lead ourselves to believe Blue Heaven may have committed this attack. But are they technologically capable of sending a missile across the Arctic? They are quite infamous for being much poorer than the average country.


The United States of America hopes this conflict ends swiftly, with neither side taking many casaulties."

[Triyun]

"It appears that the United Federation of the East was right in not signing the Confederacy of Arctic Nations Treaty. The Brits have shown how they've intended to use the cover of the bloc to push Arctic Imperialism. The United Federation of the East has not seen evidence of any craft launched from Blue Heaven or the capability of them to deploy one. Its equally possible such weapons could be deployed from a variety of mobile platforms. We find this evidence shoddy.

The United Federation of the East condemns this aggressive act. Were hereby close the Federation's territory including 300 nmi north of our coast in the Arctic from intrusion by the Brits."

"You are basing an invasion of a sovereign North American nation, because the collapse of a failed regime years ago and your marriage to a princess of that regime. Austria finds many of these claims to be full of bias and of British Imperialism, wishing to expand on the North American continent. First, Austria would like conformation from the nations such as the UFE, Germany, and Canada that the information they provided to you is true. Secondly, we demand the source of the satellite information, because as far as we know, Britain is simply making this information up. It would also help to release all this information to the world community. Then and only then, could see a legitimate war being waged.

If these requests are not met, Austria believes England's time is numbered. A nation who has been of dubious reputation in the past could quickly see it's prestige and ability to wage war stripped away. Austria urges England to back off of Blue Heaven, for the sake of their own nation. The world will not look kindly on this move and neither will Austria."
-Empress Maria Theresia II

Along with our allies in the UFE, Austria will begin mobilization of it's home forces in Austria, Ehestadt and will send requests to the Republic of Cascadia for mobilization as a part of the Austrian Commonwealth.

The CAS condemns this attack on a sovereign American nation, believing it to be nothing more than another attempt at grabbing foreign land by the imperialist British.

Greater Korea would first like to ask Britian its goals in this conflict. In addition, shouldn't the use of military force through nations have been coordinated, to avoid possible passing through of unallied nations?

"The lack of diplomatic effort to solve this issue by Britain worries the National Congress and Office of the Ruling Prince. Are all international incidents to be solved by the blade of a knife now? We have seen little to no effort to solve this issue through mediation.

Why would Blue Heaven want to use a chemical weapon that had little to no killing power to kill the Queen? Why would they not use a smaller, more pinpoint attack, instead of using a massive attack that has little chance of success to hit a high-value individual?

We hereby condemn this military action against a North American nation, and call upon Britain to stand down from any offensive military operations and let diplomacy take its' course, before making a regretful mistake."

Invasion? no. Britain will not be landing soldiers in North America, our mission goal, as outline in the declaration, is a removal of Blue Heavens warfighting ability to prevent further attacks against Britain. This can be achieved by means of strike aircraft and precision bombing of military infrastructure. We cannot release the origins of the satellite images, but they are available to be looked at.

This is the dispatch from the UFE:
[quote][b]Dispath from the Government of the United Federation of the East[/b]

The United Federation of the East shall double our crack down on the Golden Triangle opium supply routes to Europe. As for the signatures over the North Pole, there were detections of fast craft north of Alaska, but it was only there briefly. An F/A-47 was sent to intercept the air craft traveling at about Mach 1.5 before it accelerated.

We are happy to provide you with the record of the attempted intercept.[/quote]

[quote][b]The dispatch from Finland:
Public Transmissiom
The Republic of Finland is alarmed at the attack on our British allies. At the same time, we have no data to provide as our radar showed nothing during the times of the attack.[/quote]

[quote][b]The dispatch from Canada[/b]
The Commonwealth of Canada condems such an attack on Great Britain, as requested we will supply Great Britain with RADAR data from the last 24 hours, however it may not be of much use, as the RADAR station at CFB Alert has not reported any contacts. [/quote]

[quote]The dispatch from Germany
"The best we can do is provide our satellite archives. Apparently the device approached from somewhere in the north, either from Asia or North America. Beyond this vague information, nothing can be said, for the machine was not a mere, conventional missile. They really knew what they were doing to avoid detection." - A report from the Germanic Intelligence. [/quote]

[quote]Commonwealth of Canada statement in regards to the bioweaponry attack
Recently, a mysterious illness has swept thrugh the city of St. John's. We recently located its source. It is a biological weapon released in St. John's International Airport and a metro station. As a resault, we urge all nations to cancel flights from the Commonwealth of Canada, and quarrentine anyone who arrived before 6th April and a list of syptoms will be provided(ooc: see zoots post) to all concerned governments. In responce to this dispicable attack, which could only have come from Blue Heaven, we are now implamenting a policy of 'Total War'.[/quote]


[quote]Usage of biological weapons by Blue Heaven taken from Canadian news.
With a virus now rapidly spreading through the city of St. John's and surrounding suburbs, the St. Pierre regiment has quarrentined the city in an effort to stop the spread of the virus. Medical personell from other parts of the country are being flown in with HAZMAT suits, in order to treat infected patients. A timeline of symptoms has been released to the public:
0-12 hours, incubation period
13-26 hours, fever, diaherra, vommiting and rash.
26-36 hours, coma, heavy internal bleeding
36-48 hours, death

If members of the public experiance these symptoms they should emit themselves to Hospital ASAP.

Greater Korea would first like to ask Britian its goals in this conflict. In addition, we wonder why the United Kingdom pulled out of an organization which would have offered help to it. With the pull out, wouldn't the use of military force through the territories of an non-allied CAN member be a hostile act?

You wouldnt know ive left the CAN as its a private meeting.

We are just making sure, given the understanding of some countries to consider the conflict as a war for imperialist occupation.

"Yes the object we attempted to intercept demonstrated the capability to accelerate after loitering on our air space's edge and evade visual identification by a UFE interceptor. Nor were any nation's early warning systems activated by thermal blooms. I mention this because trajectory matters only with a ballistic based weapon system. If there is no evidence of an ICBM launch and it can take evasive action from an air superiority fighter before visual intercept can be attempted, that suggests to us that this is not a ballistic weapon."

"Our question is then, if this war is strictly for the removal of Blue Heaven's ability to wage war and that given past occurrences they are a threat to North American stability. Why did Britain move to do this on their own and not without the support of the North American Community? Surely, this campaign could benefit Blue Heaven's neighbors from removing a dangerous regime. Britain doing this alone, especially being from another continent, makes the argument a little less believable."

[Michael McBride]

The Empire of Pravus Ingruo demands to see the evidence against Blue Heaven. Furthermore, we demand the British cease these attacks prior to the Empire seeing this evidence, or the British will be met with the full power of the Imperial military. Attacks on sovereign American nations by foreign powers without supporting evidence cleared by the international community will not be tolerated. Cease your attacks, produce the evidence, or face destruction.

[Voodoo Nova]

"You attack a nation under the suspicion they attacked you with bioweapons, without even investigating in the nation itself. Novak condemns this unwarrented attack against a nation, one who even your intelligence and military say they cannot say definitively conducted the attack. Your silly tough guy act won't last long Britain."

If the North American community wishes to take up the mantle and fight this war for us, they are more than welcome too, but it would be folly to request North America to send possibly thousands of men to their deaths when it is not their war. This is a British war and we must fight it, we have been attacked and so we must retaliate. North America didnt react when they launched a biological attack on the Commonwealth of Canada, so we have no reason to believe that they will attack Blue Heaven now.

[HHAYD]

We would like to point out three things:

1. Are you sure that Blue Heavens is technologically capable of firing such missiles?

2. Even if such missile originated from BH, how do you know a rogue group didn't pull it off to frame BH? We would like for you to take a look at the USA-GLP war and who was responsible for the numerous acts of wars.

3. Your usage of DoW first then talk is quite saddening.

Again the world has been brought to war, while the evidence Great Britain has shown the community would be considered valid in most different circumstances I highly doubt Blue Heaven has the ability to launch such an attack. That said I must also object to the international community immediately labeling this as imperialism or an attempt to oppress a North American nation.

The Athenian Federation shall declare complete neutrality on the matter. Our waters, air and land shall be closed to all combatants involved. The same shall count for the Joint Administration in France. At the same time we offer to host a peace conference between Blue Heaven and Great Britain to solve their differences before the lives of thousands, perhaps even millions are risked so easily.

---

The Hellenic Forces would move to AlertCon Beta and the Atlantic Fleet started moving back to the Portuguese, French and Spanish coasts. Any military ships from Great Britain and Blue Heaven should they enter Athenian waters would be forced into port until the end of hostilities. The Hellenic Army across the board was put on a heightened state of alert.

[b]CLASSIFIED[/b]

The Irish government hired civilian hackers previously unrelated to the Irish government to hack into Blue Heaven. The hack was extremely easy and within a large time period, exposed all classified files (except for the names of spies, special agents, etc.) to the international community, and then uploaded all the files to several sites around the world in order to make sure that nobody would suppress it.

The group, operating from computers connected to the internet via a hijacked Irish commercial satellite aiming the signal into the Atlantic Ocean, would subsequently destroy all the computers and then make their way back to Ireland via stealth submarines. It would never be traced back to the Irish government.

[b]PUBLIC[/b]

A group named JUSTICE released every classified file from the Blue Heaven government today, with some redactions to protect the identities of unrelated persons. Every single file, including those deleted by officials (even deleted files can be obtained, they only requires the right tools to pierce together), was released en masse. No where in the files did Blue Heaven develop, produce, or order the technology necessary to pull off a feat, nor did Blue Heaven order any sort of attack on the UK, nor were any commissions or subgroups created necessary to do this task.

In short, the entire government files of Blue Heaven were out and they showed that they were completely innocent.

[Michael McBride]

After examining the satellite photos, we have found that they were doctored. Whether this was intentional or accidental, in our mind, this voids the evidence and the British CB against Blue Heaven. Couple with the classified data released by Ireland, we demand the British immediately stop their actions against Blue Heaven and begin talks to compensate the nation for what has already been destroyed.

[kitex]

[b]Official Statement from the Blue Heaven government[/b]

"Blue Heaven has not launched any attack whatsoever on the nation of Great Britain. While we had our problems with the Queen's father, we have no reason to hold a petty grudge, nor attack his offspring. We invite the international community to come and investigate our military. The attack on our air defense systems has damaged them.

As the group JUSTICE has shown, though through unfortunately hacking through our systems, that we had no plans whatsoever to attack the British. We demand that the government of Britain cease this attack immediately and compensate us. We would gladly take up the offer of the Athenian Federation, if the British shall do the same."

[b]Private[/b]

The nation was put at DEFCON 1 and the entire military was mobilized for combat.<

[Zoot Zoot]

[b]Operation Warlock[/b]

With the JUSTICE group releasing the files all operations were cancelled and aircraft in the air turned around and returned to the respective bases. The Tomahawk attack was still over the ocean and operators in the bombers flicked dead switches causing the missiles to explode in the air causing no harm

[b]Public[/b]

With the JUSTICE release of information all British Operations have come to a firm halt. RAF jets have been grounded until further notice.
With this new revelation thanks to JUSTICE, we see no reason to hide the origins of the Satellite images.

Prince William met with the Greater Korean Federation who offered the satellite photos. A second investigation will begin and we request an international team process the evidence this time.

[Centurius]

"We invite the British to join their Blue Heaven counterparts to Athens with evidence on the matter and to formally find common ground between the 2 states"
