America: My Time

Chapter 1040 Unexpected Conflict

Chapter 1030 Unexpected Conflict
John is overthinking it. Why would he let himself get involved in such a conflict? Besides, Gulfstream Aerospace and Bentley Motors wouldn't do something so foolish. Even the Middle Eastern tycoons haven't gotten involved or given those people any 'support'. At least those guys don't have any proper weapons. You know, the Middle Eastern tycoons have received a lot of equipment from the Russians. If they got involved, they would definitely give them strong support and supply those weapons to their 'good friends'!
Actually, this is what John has been preparing all along. Those guys don't have any official weapons on the surface, but the junk they have is still lethal. Most importantly, they have all received training from Jaguar Security Company, but they have done it all in secret, and very few people know about it.

Once the conflict began, those Israelis retaliated fiercely, resulting in another bloody incident in the Middle East. This time, however, they were not on the side of justice, as they were the ones who instigated the conflict. These arrogant individuals caused the conflict, directly thwarting the White House's plan and the US military's plan. It should be noted that the Americans most hoped to see the situation in the Middle East ease and for those Middle Eastern countries to reconcile with Israel and the Soviet Union. However, it now appears that their plan has completely failed. These Israelis and the Soviets actively provoked the conflict, causing the situation to spiral out of control.

Although the Middle Eastern tycoons haven't officially entered the fray, they've already reacted. Their armies are gathering, and most importantly, they now hold considerable sway over the narrative. Even if the oil-rich capitalists wanted to shift the blame onto them, it wouldn't work, because the media controlled by the Middle Eastern tycoons have reported everything.

Of course, Legendary Entertainment and Phoenix Media, which have always been neutral, have been reporting everything truthfully. What's most frightening is that the other side came prepared for this conflict, so the cause of the conflict was filmed by someone with ulterior motives. This makes it impossible for those guys to shift the blame. Faced with absolute evidence, they have no way to do anything.

"Damn bastards, they know perfectly well that we intend for them to reconcile and focus on their own finances, but those guys are just too greedy and want to sabotage our plans. They're going against us. I think those bastards deserve to suffer for this, and now Legendary Entertainment and Phoenix Group are clearly on their side!"

“I told you long ago that those guys are too greedy and not trustworthy at all. They have their own schemes, and now you finally believe me. If these bastards didn't have designs on us, why would they provoke a conflict at this time and under these circumstances? They just want to force us to take their side!”

"You can't say that. Maybe it was just an accident. You know those guys are always very arrogant!"

"Heh, an accident? Do you believe it yourself? I don't. And once such a conflict starts, in the eyes of these guys, we will definitely be dragged into it, which will seriously affect our economic development. In fact, if we are not careful, the scope of the impact will be even larger. After all, some guys are accusing Legendary Entertainment and Phoenix Group, saying that they are targeting Israel and the people of Taiwan!"

"It's no use talking about this now. Those guys in the Middle East have been provoked. They're targeting civilians, and some of the wealthy are already trying to provide support. If this situation is allowed to happen, the consequences will be severe. One wrong move and another Middle Eastern war could break out, and then it will be out of control. Moreover, the power of the wealthy in the Middle East has greatly increased. They have a huge amount of weaponry. They will benefit greatly from the fall of the Russians. Most importantly, they have a lot of top-notch weapons. Although there is no evidence, we know from some Russian data how powerful they are now."

"Perhaps we should talk to John. If anyone knows the Middle Eastern tycoons best, it's him. Although there's no evidence, he's involved in those arms deals. Even if he hasn't shown up, he knows how many weapons the Middle Eastern tycoons have. And Jaguar Security is also a big problem."

“Do you think John will agree if we go to him now? And do you think he cares about the situation in Nasri? I’m worried that if things continue like this, the situation will get out of control. At the very least, we need to make sure that other Middle Eastern powers don’t get involved, and that this conflict doesn’t continue to escalate.”

"It's difficult, very difficult. The Middle Eastern tycoons have already started providing aid to those guys. The water supply system they were planning to improve has been shut down, and even the sugar, fertilizer, and other supplies they bought for themselves are being given to those people. There's also an unconfirmed report that they're going to provide civilian helicopters and trucks. If all this continues, I'm afraid this conflict won't end anytime soon!"

"Do you think this conflict can end in a short time? Besides, those Middle Eastern tycoons have plenty of money. A lot of civilian supplies have already been sent there. The media power they control in the Middle East is constantly exposing the ugly side of the oil people, and it's all based on evidence. If things continue to deteriorate, the situation in the Middle East will change drastically!" "Even if we know all this, what can we do? Those guys in Seberang Perai refuse to admit their mistakes and insist on their own way. They're even trying to drag us into it. I heard that Bentley Motors has received a lot of orders, mostly for civilian vehicles like trucks and pickups, and most importantly, they're all equipped with navigation systems!"

The US military quickly learned about the situation in the Middle East, and with the help of the GPS system, they gained a better understanding of the true nature of the conflict. They also learned more from the Middle Eastern tycoons. The water supply system that the tycoons were planning to build had been halted, and the supplies were being transferred to the other side. They claimed that they were helping the other side build the water supply system, but everyone knew that was just a pretext. The real reason was to supply the people involved in the conflict with supplies.

Although neither side in the conflict obtained actual weapons, the weapons they produced still inflicted considerable losses on Israel. They were hit and run, and with the help of navigation devices, it was impossible to catch them. In particular, the fighting quickly spread to Israel, making it even more difficult for the situation to stop in the short term.

“Now those oil-rich capitalists are getting desperate. They are demanding that we stop Gulfstream Aerospace’s arms exports, but Gulfstream Aerospace and Bentley Motors are completely ignoring their clamor. Most importantly, they have production capabilities in Europe. Gulfstream Aerospace has even said that if we unilaterally stop them, or if the White House violates the agreement, they will break up Gulfstream Aerospace and make the European military industry a separate company. At that time, we will have no way to stop them.”

"We can't agree to those oil-rich capitalists' demands, or it will be a new conflict, and John will launch a counterattack. Don't forget, these were the conditions of the initial settlement. If they break the rules, it means everything before will be overturned, and John will have a reason to launch a rule-breaking battle. At that time, they will all be purged. They have broken the rules, and it's no use if we disagree. More people are willing to stand on John's side!"

The rules are not to be challenged, and John will not compromise with them. Everyone understands this, and there are quite a few guys who are eager to make trouble, just waiting for someone to break the rules again. At that time, they will have a legitimate reason to launch a purge, and even the donkey will not be able to bear the serious consequences.

"There's another problem. Bentley's orders all go through factories in Asia. Taiwan, South Korea, and China are all speeding up the supply, and these are all civilian supplies. We have no reason to stop them. If it weren't for that little fox John, we could have intervened forcefully, but we can't do that now. Especially with the seawater desalination cooperation, this is a project that was decided long ago, and it's a civilian project, so there's even less way to stop it. Most importantly, this doesn't involve one or two countries, but many countries. John has already gained huge benefits from this project alone!"

"That's absolutely true. Quantum Mining's steel mills have an astonishing number of orders, and Bentley Motors has also received huge orders, as has Sikorsky. They are all increasing their purchases of civilian helicopters, and we have no way to stop them. Most importantly, the Middle Eastern tycoons have the capability to upgrade civilian helicopters, and Jaguar Security has that capability!"

“If what happened before hadn’t happened, we could have talked to that little fox John and gotten him to talk to the Middle Eastern tycoons to end the conflict. But now it’s impossible. That guy will never get involved, and getting him to step in now would be cutting off his source of income. So it’s simply not feasible!”

Indeed, Gulfstream Aerospace and Bentley Motors have received massive orders, and Quantum Mining's steel mills have also received orders several times higher than usual. This situation has forced these guys in the US to take it seriously. Cutting off someone's livelihood is like killing their parents. John is a true media mogul, and no one wants to antagonize him. Even within the Donalds, there are dissenting voices, and not everyone is willing to stand on the side of the oil giants! If they are targeted by the two major media groups, they will never have a chance to rise to power again. After all, they will face retaliation from the two major media groups, as well as from the media controlled by the Middle Eastern tycoons.
