If that's the result of ONE surgical strike, I think Iraq's pretty fucked.

For Finland and Sweden, Just MFN the whole of Scandinavia.

Continue with the SS. 

Also, is the U.S. still a police state?

8 surgical strikes have damaged Iraq. That's pretty cool.



We're a restricted state. Not yet a TOTAL police state, but still, not good.

For Finland and Sweden, Just MFN the whole of Scandinavia.

I'm onto it.

How on Earth do you reform the U.S.?  I doubt you can just change it with a click.  And how did you even become a police state back during the Cold War scenario?  Overt-aggressiveness?  Seriously, after the economy gets boosted, and all the MFNs get sent, AoD, you need to rehabilitate your country.

I think lack of ethic makes you turn into a complete police state. Ambition may contribute to the police state factor.

No need for puny Human Rights. We're fighting for capitalism, ont democracy.

You should try to have a coup in Iraq.

Police State is a stat, it just never gets listed. Your advisers mention which actions will increase/decrease Police State.

Wow, I actually thought you guys would want to make the U.S. more, oh I dunno, more tolerant and humanitarian.  Then again, you are Bay12ers, so I really shouldn't be surprised.

Alright, coup Iraq and give them a U.S. friendly government.

That may be a good idea in the long run, but then surgical strikes will lower our popularity by about 6-14 points.

[EDIT] There's only a 16-26 chance of success. Do we still want to Coup Iraq?

Is there anything we can do to increase our chances?  Supply arms to rebels, create economic confusion in Iraq, that sort of thing?

If not, still coup them.

If my knowledge serves me right, when we have a high LER and Iraq has a low one, it will greatly increase the chance of a Coup working. Surgical strikes are the best for this course of action as they lower the reciever's LER and raise the giver's LER.

Well, do a few more SS and coup them. Blockade them if that helps, and give the new government MFN status.

Do it.  What does LER stand for again?

LER means Leadership Effectiveness. I'll post a picture of Iraq's LER when it gets to the time to Coup.



Surgical strikes won't lower Iraq's LER any more than it has. What should we do?
