It has come to my own and my intelligecne advisors ears that certain suspicious personas, linked to the former Soviet Union and now certain far left loony parties are starting a conspiracy aiming and deseating me as Minister of Defense and International affairs. My henchmen, er, I mean, the security forces of Eutopia are already cracking down on these terrorists (no doubt linked to: Nelson Mandela, Saddam Hussein, Mickey Mouse, Osama bin Laden, Child Pornography dealers, Evil wizards, Cindirellas step sisters, the Teletubbies, the Columbia Shuttle incident, Satan himself & Martha Stewart) and are countering their insurgency plan to destabilise Eutopia politically and economically using a Illuminati-funded smear campaign as their main weapon. Beware! You might have been infiltrated!

The terrorists claim that the Minister of DIA doesn't know whats good for his citizens. The minister agrees, every individual knows best whats for him/her, the terrorists also lobby for a small yet professional army. Hah! No doubt to invade us with ease because our puny army won't even be able to resist an Italian invasion! Furthermore, the terrorists seem to be agitating our coal miners who are considered a very dangerous crowd since they have explosives and pick axes and stuff and lastly the terroist seem to be supporting some whackjobs who favour social engineering. Of course they call it social 'p(r)ograms'. Beware! The enemy is listening!

I know give all permission to panic, scream, run around in frenzy, loot electronic stores, mug old ladies etcetera etcetera.

Minister Jools,

Thank you for this sit down. On behalf of the Italian-Eutopian Anti-Defamation League I bring your my capo's, I mean, my organization's gravest concerns about your unflattering comments about Mamma Italia's army.

As you know, we wouldn't want things to get out of hand, or worse, get unhealthy.

No one want to subscribe to that so called "Pee Cee" crap, but a little respect is in order. It would be most unfortunate if accidents were to happen. Not that they should. If you catch my drift.

Also, on behalf of all the coal miners, another group of people that counts many Italian-Eutopians among them, they have asked me to remind you that all of your precious computers, radar systems, metal detectors, security systems, etcetara etcetara are all solely reliant on electricty produced by the coal they haul out of the earth. Should the find themselves too distressed to work, say from trauma brought on by public disrespect from one so important as yourself, the resulting coal shortage could leave you in the dark, quite literally.

I hope this meeting has cleared up a few things and I hope you enjoy the canolis I brought. Ma loves her canolis, you will too.

Ciao bene,

Rev. Jack "Giacomo" Teano

[OOC: I'm just running with this. Forgive me. ;) ]

A letter from Dr. Emmitt Brown, Ph D.

Dear sirs,

I am very pleased that our military scientists have apearently perfected time travel technology. I understand that no offical announcement has been made, but the replacement of the MoD with a 50s-era American reactionary is a clear sign for those who are paying attention. However, I believe that said MoD must be returned to his own time quickly, to prevent further disruption of the space-time continum. Some sort of measure must also be taken to prevent him from recalling the events of the future in the past, which could result in a very dangerous paradox.

Dr. Emmitt Brown,
Hilldale, Gloriana
