War of the Worlds 07 AD (series) ep. ix

The UFOs, as it turns out, are aircraft flooding the area over the blacked-out Iraq/Iran. They position themselves over the area, preparing for a massive assault. Two large missiles have been fired at a level of 30 feet, skimming over the ground to their targets. The payload is thermonuclear.

In the last moments before, Kherramabad disappeared, small blips of power were becoming available in pockets of Iran. Singular phone calls were placed, catching up on lost news … allaying worries of death and sickness, everything was just fine.

[deafening silence]

Missile two strikes near the Iraq – Iran border; people, roads, mine fields, military all disappear without voices. Communication is still blacked out, but a mushroom cloud is impossible to hide. Clearly, this is no act of God – it is an attack.

US and British intelligence leak that a large cache of nuclear material was activated, causing the border explosion, while the second explosion is credited to Iran’s hasty development of nuclear weapons. Iran and Iraq cannot offer any story, as they are still blacked out.
