“Sir, you'd better take a look at this,” said Bruce Allen, the President's Chief of Staff, as he entered the Oval Office and walked hurriedly over to the television set across the room. It was already tuned to one of the news channels, but the sound was muted. Allen turned it up.

“—too early to tell. But first, we go to our Middle East correspondent John Corrigan in Baghdad. Tell us about the breaking story over there, John,” said the perfectly coiffed and tanned face, sitting at a horseshoe-shaped anchor desk in Atlanta.

“The United States has been given another ultimatum by the Islamic Brotherhood, the same group that exploded a nuclear bomb a week ago today, and on Saturday claimed responsibility for destroying the U.S. Embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia,” the correspondent said. Corrigan was standing on a hotel balcony overlooking the city of Baghdad. It was already dark in that part of the world, and the buildings in the background were already lit up. He continued his report. “We've obtained a copy of a videotape that was sent to Al Jazeera studios in the United Arab Emirates this afternoon. The tape claims to be from the Islamic Brotherhood, the organization that issued this newest ultimatum. Here is what they said.”

As the control room played the tape, it showed a bearded Arab in dark, clerical robes, reading from a prepared text. His words were in Arabic, but a translator's voiceover gave the message in English: “We send this message to the unholy infidels of America, and to their satanic allies in Great Britain and Israel. You have been warned, and yet you still choose to defy our warnings by trying to ignore us. The holy Islamic Brotherhood has demonstrated its commitment to drive out or destroy all infidels who continue to stay and defile the land where the prophet walked.

“On Monday last we showed you the fire and fury of Allah when we exploded one of our nuclear weapons—a course of action that was taken only after the ‘great Satans’ did not respond to our ultimatum to leave our lands. Now we give you our final word on this matter.

“Here is the warning to unholy Americans and other infidel nations—if you do not leave all Islamic lands, we will see to it that the next nuclear explosions will take place on your lands.

“Each month, beginning with the next month, a nuclear detonation will wreak destruction in one of your cities and kill millions. If you still persist, and do not leave the Islamic lands, another city will be destroyed. And if you continue your defilements, another city—until finally your entire country—will be destroyed. You cannot stop us,” the spokesman said, staring directly into the camera lens. “You have been warned. There will be no further warning. If you do not leave Islamic holy lands, then you will die, and your families will die. Your nation will die. In the name of Allah, the Almighty.
