History does repeat itself. Are you fed up with tyrannical government bureaucrats and the never-ending high taxes they squeeze out of you and your family? If so, then remember that these were the very same causes that started the first American Revolution.
After lunch, Michael Falk returned to his office and placed a call to the deputy director of the CIA.
Bart Ingram detested political hacks who thought they could manipulate everyone in the government to their own whims. To Ingram, Falk was one of the worst he had seen in his 25-year career at the Agency. Still, he listened to what Falk had to say.
When Falk was finished, Ingram treated him like a grade-schooler who just needed a basic civics lesson. “Michael,” he said slowly, “this is a domestic problem. By congressional mandate, the FBI works in the United States, and the CIA works overseas.”
Falk was pissed for being chastised and talked down to again, but he kept his cool. He wanted the Agency involved, and he was going to make it happen, one way or another.
“What if I told you that the Mayor of Temple is one your former, covert employees?” Falk asked. “Would that help you take an interest in what I’m talking about?”
It did. Ingram sat forward and started taking notes as he talked on the phone. “All right. What’s the mayor’s name, and where in the hell is Temple?”
At last, Falk had started the ball rolling. He just didn’t realize what a snowball it would become. His next call was to the Defense Department, where he had friends in high places. After all, Falk was the voice in the White House who helped the Defense Department get their trillion-dollar budget passed by Congress each year.
Falk knew that if troops were pulled out of the Burundi war, there would be a downsizing of the military. Unless there happened to be another war to go to. The military loves a good war, he thought, even if they have to fabricate it. Peacetime was the enemy of the Defense Department.
Like Jerry Oliver, Michael Falk realized he was playing against a strict timeline. Time was of the essence.
Falk’s call to the Joint Chiefs of Staff went to the Vice-Chairman, Admiral Peter Kohl.
“Admiral Kohl. This is Michael Falk at the White House. How are you doing today?”
“Fine, Michael. What can I do for your?” Kohl grimaced. He knew that he owed more than one political favor to Falk, whom he secretly considered a political flunky. He knew quite well what Falk had done to the Democratic nominee during the last presidential election, and he was disgusted.
“Well, it looks like domestic terrorism may be brewing in Oklahoma this coming Monday. I wanted to ask you how we should approach this serious issue.”
This novel is based in part on real events and characters in a small, modern day town, in America. The citizens take a stand against tyranny just as our ancestors did. Americans still have the resolve to defend their freedoms and families. The question to you is, “which side will you defend and will you be ready to become one of the new heroes in American history?
