That thread was inspired by a small event that took place on the last wednesday. The french presidential plane suffered some reactor problem right before taking off (no consequences)..., our president was really angry about that, and what if...

The plane crashes but the french president survives from the crash. Many important government members died, however, along with his wife. On the next day, the french president make a speach on TV where he declares that those responsible for this action will be found and punished.

However, The investigation proves with no doubt that no terrorist action was involved. It also proves that the crash was simply the result of an accident. A french bishop goes on TV where he explains that "the accident must have been a holly punishment". On the next day, the frensh president gets on TV and claim that "If that was the will god, god will have to pay". A week later, a law is voted by the french parliament, in name of liacism, that confiscate what is left of Vatican's properties in France, ban the catholic church and call for the expulsion of all priests.

This can't be ignored by the Pope and he excommunicate the french president, the government and any french that is involved in any action against the Catholic Chruch.

The french Muslims support their government but Israel, concerned by such an extreme path of action, support the Pope. The US and China follow on while Russia and Germany state that they will side with France if any offensive or political action is to be taken against France. On the next day, the Pope goes on TV and ask the true catholic of France to unite against that government of evil. As a response, the french presidency states that if this statement leads to violence, retaliation will be ordered agaisnt the Vatican and the Pope. Most french catholics don't get involved but a small number of catholic's extremists, getting support from foreign catholics, launch a bombing campaign that targets a large number of state administrations. Even the hotel of Matignon (siege of the prime minister) is hit while over 2000 french state workers are killed.

Two days after the first arrests, among which there are 2 bishops, true to his word the french president gets on TV again and declares that the true center of evil is in Vatican City. At the end of the speach he declares that he just ordered its destruction. Ten minutes later, a nuclear missile, launched by a Rafale from the Charles de Gaulle, destroys Vatican City and a good part of Rome.

Several countries (Italy, Spain, Portugal among the first) immediately declare war on France...

Of course, this is absolutely silly but who knows?...:D

If anyone of you has some more silly idea for a twilight war starting point, feel free.:p

For crazy was scenarios you can't beat Down To A Sunless Sea, can't remember the author off hand. This is going from memory here, and its a while since I read the book, but I know other people on here have read it, so please correct me if I'm wrong. It has the nuclear war start plausibly enough in the middle east, but it was how the UK involvement began that made me laugh. According to the book the government in the Republic of Ireland became left wing and made the IRA an official auxiliary wing of the army and built airstrips near the border so that they could carry out hit and run raids on the north. Then the Cubans (?) turn up with boats full of tanks and troops, the British demand that they withdraw and when they don't they start tossing nukes at Ireland :) Always thought this was slightly far fetched....

Another unlikely war scenario, although this one was conventional, was in the book Dark Rose. Again I can't remember the author and its years since I read it. According to the book Palestinians manage to buy lots of property and business interests in the Republic, and lots of representation in the Dail (Irish parliament). They somehow manage to end up owning more than 50% of Ireland and annex it to show Europe how life is for the Palestinians living in their own country but controlled by foreigners, in their case Isreal. The weird bit for me (well, weirder:)) was that the US didn't officially do anything, but did allow Irish American members of the forces to appropriate equipment including a Tarawa class ship and Harriers and carry out an unofficial mission to aid the British forces in freeing the south from the Palestinians.

More crazy scenario fodder for us there I think :)

They can either count the points and lead a Neo-Christianity led by Lutherians, establish a new Rome from a schism by the US Catholic church or get fully involved. I'll try to add something on that matter.

That's a good idea. However, during a time (before US full involvement and the world slide to chaos) I was thinking of an alliance between the Catholic and Protestant in the US. May be including the funding of Neo-Vatican City at Rome, Ga.:D (After all: In God we Trust).
