Part 8: Mission 8 - LAX
The situation: The capture of Suhadi Sadono by U.S intelligence has effectively put an end to the Indonesian crisis, and the Darah Dan Doa insurgency. However, Norman Soth is still at large and in possession of an ND133 loaded with smallpox.
The mission: Soth and an unknown number of mercenaries have breached security at Los Angeles International Airport, disguised as employees. It is believed Soth is intending to release the virus into the airport. Fisher must eliminate Soth and all his men at all costs, and prevent the activation of the ND133. Failure to do so will cause many thousands of casualties, and an outbreak of smallpox that will be extremely difficult to contain.
Video
I'm aware of the subtitle issue on the video. A new video will be uploaded ASAP, stay tuned. I'm sorry for the confusion.
Aaaand we're done. Although we experienced some technical problems on the road, we finally made it all the way. It was a delight re-playing this game and sharing the good word.
I hope to see you in the upcoming Double Agent thread. Date on that is still up in the air, though it shouldn't be too long.

Notes:
Brunton managed to eke a little more out of the CIA about RED BEARD before Lambert demoted him to mop duty. It isn't much, but from what we can gather, RED BEARD was an initiative to fund suppresion of Timorese uprisings using drug-funded, CIA-armed Indonesian guerillas. Soth started as an asset in the operation and within a couple years was basically running it. He had nearly turned it into a self-contained terrorist unit by the CIA's disbanding of the operation in '99. Enough so that he could continue operations once the CIA had pulled it's resources out of Indonesia and the U.S. was officially supporting East Timor. American Intelligence has made multiple attempts to neutralize the remaining elements of RED BEARD, including at least one assassination attempt aimed specifically at Soth. I think it's safe to assume Soth bears a bit of a grudge.

Keep this to yourself, I don't want Soth to think I'm not useful. I don't want to get dropped as dead weight. But this vaccine has me sick as a dog. I'm burning up. You feeling okay? Some of the other guys looked like they were sweating. We all got the same vaccine, right? I can't imagine what the real virus must be like.

Frank,
It's tricky, but how about this: we create the appearance of a terror alert orange, but only notifying third level resources (i.e. no extra security or emergency response crews.) An orange alert at level three will effect international ticketing and passenger screening. Should delay international flights by a couple of hours at least and minimize spread to foreign territories. Working on a little something you could drop in the levels one and two systems, should at least triple their response time. A lot of people gonna die today.

Your concern is touching. I'm taken care of, vaccination isn't necessary. I'll meet you and the others when it's done.
