Climate > The year is 2105, North Africa under occupation, ... again !!!

The earth temperature has risen by 12 degrees from the current 2006 levels.

Greenland has melted…
The ozone hole has widened to reach the southern tip of Argentina
Hong Kong became a legend taught only in history books
Half of Bangladesh is under sea…
The Netherlands has relocated, its population now spread over Belgium & Denmark

The year is 2110, the North Atlantic Current carrying fresh water from the equator to the northern hemisphere has finally shut down, signaling the initial phase of a climate shift.

Europe
is not longer protected by warm waters carried by the conveyor belt. Temperatures has dropped by 20 degrees and Siberian winter became reality in England, Scandinavia, France and most of the western European states.

Crops have frozen and agricultural supplies have been critically affected...
Starvation has become widespread..
Financial institutions have shut down and governments are on the verge of collapsing..
Martial law in effect.

In the Mairie de Marseille, a makeshift government operations center, acting French President General DuPont calls North African counterparts with a message to tell:


“Dear Governors, we would like you to pay us back all of your long term and short term obligations, otherwise under national emergency measures; you will be considered French assets”


North Africans reply:“We will pay our debts to you as agreed on due time. We are sovereign nations, and we have friendly treaties between us, and you can not impose your will on us even in a time of emergency. We will however offer any kind of assistance during this crisis”

French president General Dupont - having in mind a different agenda - decides to dispatch 3 nuclear powered air craft carriers from Toulon with an ultimatum to Tunisian Gov to pay down the debt immediately, open ports for French refugees or surrender.


Tunisian gov refuses to capitulate and mobilizes the national army; sends the fleet to defend the north, the latter is wiped out by the French might.

French ground troops march on the capital and secures it after fierce resistance. Other special French units secure major airports and seaports. Regular troops began emptying Tunisian houses under a special law of land confiscation and other French emergency laws which calls for the use of force overseas to relocate affected French nationals.

Tunisian government -in exile in Libya- calls on the Security Council and the UNHCR to intervene and stop the occupation. The UN refuses to hear the case citing bigger conflicts between North Korea and the southern pacific islands that went nuclear.

Tunisian resistance regroups and starts a guerilla warfare against the French occupation forces, the latter pretends to install a Tunisian government friendly to their agenda.

The Security Council finally agrees to hear the Tunisian cause, and bluntly rejects Tunisia’s request for intervention, instead it accuses the resistance of insurgency and acts of terrorism, and throws its support behind the French, asking the latter to restore public order in the newly created French Republic of North Africa.

The year is 2120
, North Africa has been reclaimed by the 5 million strong Chinese People's Army...

I do have sometimes these weird thoughts of occupation and resistance and how thrilled I would be defending my Tunisia in a " guerilla warfare ", but now that you described it this way, it just sounds so realistic, i.e. so scary !!! Thankfully , I won't be living till 2120 :-))))
What a hell of imagination you have , man ;-)

@snawsi, we'll all be dead by that time, but our children and grand children will suffer !!! my story has many facets to it,
first: climate awarness,
Second: we need to pay our debts and become a strong economy
third: we should not rely on crappy UN or security council to rescue us, there is no such thing as human rights or justice, there is only interest and greed with some compassion from time to time

@imbratour, je me suis inspiré du film 'the day after tomorrow' et celui qui s'en vient 'An Inconvenient Truth'

@hannibal, not really, the north african coaat is not threatned (except really few spots) by the rise of the seas.

merci pour votre passage...

ça me rapelle le livre de Abdelaziz Belkhouja "Le retour de l'elephant"...

Une autre vision de la Tunisie dans le futur. Cette fois, c'est completement le contraire, la Tunisie serait le leader du monde moderne...

cheers
