Hi everyone, this brief diary will talk about the events that kick off the mod and explain a bit about why I chose to name the mod modern warfare.

I remember myself being 13 years old when suddenly our television in Israel interrupted the usual programming to report an event in New York city. I got to watch the news purely by accident but once that pictured revealed the smoking world trade center towers I couldn't go back to the cartoons I was watching before.

For many years since that day I have believed the official story lies about 9/11 how the "bad guy" we all know as Osama Ben Laden planned such a precise attack on the US and so on and so forth. But in recent years and especially when I got to putting 9/11 into the mod I started to question the official story, something did not seem right... some guy from Afghanistan in a cave plans such a sophisticated operation and manages to bring the worlds biggest superpower to its knees? Something's not right here...

And so I started to check around the various "conspiracy theories" as they are called for alternate explanations to the events of that day. And it is with great regret I must admit that those explanations make much more sense to me than the official story lies. The whole thing was looking bad with the "plane crash" in the pentagon where you actually saw no plane at all. Then we are expected to believe that building 7 was destroyed by weakened foundations from the attack on the two towers... I may not know everything but there is only so much that I am willing to take in blindly.

Upon further investigation I discovered that there were no planes that hit the world trade center at all. All facts point to a controlled demolition and even if planes have struck these structures you would probably need at least 4 for each tower to bring them down and even that may not be enough since what eventually caused these buildings to go down was the demolition of the foundations and not the planes that hit them (again, there were no planes at all, the only planes that took part in this "show" were the ones that were added to the TV reports, in the real world there were just explosions without any planes).

With all these in my hands I found myself at a difficult crossroad. Do I tell the official story or do I try to present the truth as much as possible with the information that is available? Ultimately my decision was not to be a reflection of the true terrorists and tell the story as it is. In Modern Warfare the 9/11 attacks will be presented as a Casus Beli generator for the invasion of Afghanistan, Iraq and for the passing on the US Patriot Act, the most unconstitutional and freedom limiting act in the history of the United States.

I named the mod "Modern Warfare" to reflect both the changing of the tools of war and who those tools are pointed against, in the 21 century it seems governments fight mostly their own people rather than foreign countries or adversaries.

The true terrorists of that day was the government of the US itself since it had the audacity to attack and terrorize its own people just to have them agree to anything and have their freedom taken to "protect them".

I encourage everyone to watch the video I am attaching to this dev diary and make your own conclusions about the events of that day, do not believe anyone only yourself and what you think is right - not what your were told is right.

To all the American players who are watching this mod I would like to say that this is not intended to hurt you or somehow demote the tragedy you and your nation have experienced on that day, It is simply an attempt to tell the truth the way I see it and not the way I or you were told to see it by your government. If you take offense to this "other truth" I would suggest you do your own research and come to your own conclusions. This mod is not an "Anti American" peace of work, as a mod that deals with our recent history it will from time to time deal with controversial events and people. The mod will try its best not to present one side in a conflict as purely "good" and the other as purely "evil". All countries have intrests and some actions are mere reflections of those instrests... it is up to you to decide if those actions justify the cause.

God Speed.
