"Another American Occupation"
 
President Xia Hong
The People's Republic of China
August 11-12, 2014
============================================
 
(The Executive Residence- Beijing)
 
It had been a long and trying week between the blowback from the slow  
'moderating' of China's more unruly old guard, Wen's funeral, and everything  else 
that preceded it.  It was early morning in Beijing, about 03:45 would  be what 
her alarm clock told her if she was awake and could actually look at  it.  She 
wasn't though, Xia was most certainly in the land of dreams...  far, far 
removed and away in the confines of the inviting linens and comfort of  her bed.
 
And that's when the phone rang.  Just 'fucking' great.
 
"This had better not be a telemarketer."  Xia dryly joked when she  answered 
the phone, her eyes still too heavy to actually open.
 
Bing on the other end didn't waste a minute.  "Xia, we have a  situation."
 
'Oh Crap.'  The Chinese President thought to herself as she went about  the 
process of arousing herself from what was a 'very' comfortable  position.  Of 
course they'd wait until she just found the best spot before  calling too.  
"I'm on my way."
-----------------------------------------------------------------
 
The situation room as of late never seemed to be unoccupied.  This  time 
though it was set up for Bing and Carrim's people.  The largest  integrated wall 
screen indicated a colorful map of Iran.  There  were blue blops, indicating 
Chinese Special Forces camps that had been  operating in the country since 
before the American lead invasion of  Azerbaijan.  There were an ever dwindling 
number of red areas which  indicated those parts of the country where what 
remained of the Iranian  Government's forces 'and' Islamacist militias or terrorist 
groups were known to  be the local power.  There were stretches of green 
areas, places secured by  the Iranian Democratists that the PLSOF forces had been 
allied with and training  to liberate their own country... and now there were 
yellow, expanding toe  holds.  Some specks of Brown, in areas under localized 
authority, no  authority, or simply 'other' parties were already being 
swallowed up in the  expanding yellow sea.
 
"What the hell is that?"  Xia muttered, her still sleepy eyes trying  to 
adjust to the colorful light show and the ambient lighting of the room.
 
"That would be, per our satellites and human intelligence on the ground,  the 
western armies from Azerbaijan."  Bing closed his laptop.  "We've  got 
confirmed reports, the Americans and their allies are moving in for an  occupation 
of Iran."
 
"Son of a bitch."  Xia did something she rarely did, breaking with the  
traditional Asian icon of the reserved, refined, delicate lady and adopting a  more 
suitable persona as the stereotypical bitch from hell.  "So much for  
Williams' agreement that the Iranians should be allowed to handle their own  post-war 
affairs.  I'm sure the American people are going to 'love' the  specter of a 
longer, bloodier, costlier Iraq."
 
"Well he was a Veteran."  Carrim pointed out.  "Perhaps he just  secretly 
longs to revisit his old stomping grounds?"  
 
There was a moment of smirks being exchanged at the really bad joke that  
only the intel freaks would really have appreciated, but it passed fairly  
quickly.
 
"We do have our Special Forces teams in the region.  If you gave the  order I 
could have them engage..."
 
"No."  Xia said flatly, knowing where Bing was going with this  already.  
"Williams might have lied true, but I'm done making China have to  be the one 
that stands up to the American bully on a constant basis,  alone.  Remind our 
'allies' on the other side of that country that we would  appreciate them 'not' 
bombing our embassy this go around, or accidentally  shooting up or bombing our 
men."
 
"I'll send a direct message to the Joint Chiefs of Staff at NATO and to the  
American Department of Defense, but you know he's lied before, and if we give  
him the location of our troops we're taking an awfully big risk that he won't 
 simply lie and bomb them anyway."
 
"No one said we were going to hand over their locations, Bing."  Xia  waved 
her hand dismissively.  "We're just going to make sure that they  realize they 
had better be 'very' careful."
 
"Do we issue the withdrawal orders?"
 
"No, not for now."  Xia sat down, a cup of tea already being poured by  an 
aide to help awaken the Chinese President.  "For now they should act  simply as 
observers, and advisors to the independent Democratists.  We'll  urge for 
their restraint, and warn them against an occupation of a foreign  country without 
cause, but that's it.  Chinese troops are not to fire on  western forces 
unless they are engaged themselves, understand?"
 
Bing and Carrim both nodded, the latter deciding to ask.  "And what do  we do 
if the Americans and their allies insist we leave?"
 
"We gently remind them of the illegality of their occupation, and the  
dangers of a protracted engagement against Iranians determined to make democracy  
for themselves."  Xia knew that there were a multitude of weapons available  to 
a politician... to defeat an enemy you didn't need necessarily fight  them 
militarily.  "Allow Xinhua reporter teams, under protection of course,  into the 
country if they so choose to go.  Let the world see the allied  armies moving 
in, and the Iranians demanding their immediate departure."   The intelligence 
on the Democracy movement in Iran indicated that most groups  put at their 
forefront the requirement that IRAN, not a foreign nation, adopt  Democracy for 
itself.  Sadly, such an occupation might hurt that movement  more than support 
it.  "We'll encourage the Iranians to use their freedom  of speech, present 
the western occupation as well meaning but unnecessary, and  call for UN 
oversight of a transitional committee of Iranian origin to judge how  their nation 
should move forward."  She took a sip of her tea.  "Let  Williams explain why 
Democracy and Freedom for Iranians are bad things."
=========================================================
 
ACTIONS
 
1.  Per the United States-People's Republic State visit agreement on  Iran, 
point out that Williams had indicated that the best course was to let Iran  
build it's own structures... something any kind of occupation is inherently at  
odds with.
 
2.  Encourage peaceful resistance to the Western occupation by those  who 
support an 'Iran for Iranians' populist theory.  "You're not wanted, Go  home!" 
and "America Leave!" as well as other generic signs, slogans, speeches,  
rallies, etc. to be the mainstay of opposition.
 
3.  Submit to the United Nations a resolution asking that a UN  observer 
force be established to oversee the establishment of a transitionary  governing 
authority elected by Iranians... which in turn will rebuild the  Iranian 
government and institutions before a full, general election, is  implemented.
 
4.  Xinhua reporters to be allowed to go to Iran and exploit the  freedom of 
the press to make the reasons against occupation perfectly  clear.
 
5.  Remind the Americans that China retains troops in Iran, it would  be a 
very good idea to exercise restraint where  possible.
