I am a simple guy dealing with some complicated issues.I believe there should be no compromise when it comes to the Bill of Rights. People are supposed to be the focal point of our Republic.I now utilize the tenth amendment to state that the U.S. Government is unfit to remain in authority or represent justice. Per the tenth amendment, the will of the people is to come before anything to include special interest groups and political parties. We all have the right to have a government that represents us. This government clearly and openly does not.Every rights violation committed either by someone or something to include governments, is an act of war. There are many ways to attack others without the use of violence. I have been through and continue to endure that relentless experience myself. Such violations are often protected by law even though they are outside the purpose of government to begin with.Perception: Govt. is doing it's job taking care of disabled veterans.Reality: Veteran suicides at epidemic levels because so many being left without.Perception: EPA protects the environment and cares about our safety. If they say the water is safe to drink, it must be.Reality: Fracking is causing earthquakes and the people who consume the post processed water they are told is safe to drink, face severe physical health effects.Perception: If the government tells someone's family they committed suicide in jail, it must always be the truth.Reality: Sometimes someone paid someone else who could create the opportunity to kill the victim who is believed to have taken their own life. People use the government in this fashion to get away with murder all the time. No one looks for a killer when everyone thinks the victim did it to themselves. Easily, one of the cruelest and unjust forms of social selection.Perception: Money acting as free speech helps entrepreneurs advertise.Reality: Money unconstitutionally acting as a "legal" form of free speech is effectively silencing the voices of common people within both the advertising markets and the government.Perception: If the U.S. Govt. came into contact with E.T.s, they would tell the public about it. They have to, why wouldn't they? Reality: U.S. Govt has been aware of other advanced life for over 70 years. It was decided that such information would be kept classified and secret before Admiral Byrd could even return from the Antarctic Expedition known as Operation: High Jump. Around that time was when what was our once Constitutional Republic, first became compromised.

Foreword

We find ourselves in the midst of a unique time frame in our history, not just as a country but as humanity in one whole. Communication technology is making the world a smaller place than it has already become. We are coming up with some of the most sophisticated ways we can kill people and produce an abundance of resources; yet, countless face the situation in life where they struggle to have their needs met. Our Earth is now small enough to humanity, that being able to live together with one another might mean our survival in the future.

Humanity has not stood together under one banner since what is known as the fall of the tower of Babel. A huge part of the Human Expedition concept is set up around the idea that world peace is possible. There are people out there that believe in world peace. The trick to taking it from a dream to a reality is the demonstration of compassion. For every person that falls down, they may need someone to help them back up. It can happen to any one of us in life. No one is so independent, that they never need the help of others. I would like to see people united under one banner once again but humanity needs to be ready for it and in total control of it. While money is able to corrupt the system with the will of greed, this achievement will remain out of reach.

Anything done like this by any faction or government on a massive scale must be done right. This series will portray what failure looks like in some cases and why. Having a disability system set up that leaves legitimate claims unanswered is not at all democratic, considering that those people have all paid into it. Many working people fail to realize if something happens to them, they could end up like the people on the corner of any given parking lot, begging for change or food.

This will be a science fiction series set up to reflect how certain changes can make major impacts on our modern day society. Answers are not presenting themselves and people are not involved enough in bringing about a change most people mutually agree is needed. This baseline of perspectives will help people find a new way into their own role in our changing world.

This publication is dedicated to those who have given all for our country.

Prologue

Classified location within Iraq, May 2006

The United States military discovers that a small handful of high value insurgent targets have taken refuge in a site that is considered one of the holiest places by local residents. With no regard to the fact the population will turn on those who disrespect the location, orders are issued to marines to seize these individuals.

Who are we looking for? Lance Corporal Harris asks his buddy as the march approaches what appears to be a small size village. The structures are simple yet more sturdy then what is seen throughout most the rest of the country. Three vastly elaborate mosques are seen within the outskirts of the area.

There are three we know of. Jack of hearts, ten of clubs and eight of spades. Private Jimenez answers him.

Jack of hearts, that son of a bitch. I lost some money betting on that mother fucker. Harris says before choking up a snot ball and spitting it out.

It's been a while since we have seen a face card. Private Sanchez comments from behind the two.

Other squads of marines are already knocking on doors and in a couple of cases, kicking them in by the time Harris's squad joins in. Some civilians start exchanging gun shots with marines.

Harris, get the fuck over here! Sergeant Baker yells over to them as another group of eight marines charges off.

It's time to earn that paycheck. Harris whispers to himself before they get in front of Baker.

You guys are on that corner house next. Put Sanchez on point this time. Baker instructs the squad and the marines move to do as ordered. Baker follows them and lines up with them along the wall. Weapons raised, Harris pounds on the door.

U.S. Marines, open up! Harris shouts standing to the side. Commotion can be heard inside through the wall, Sanchez and Harris hear slides locking on two AK weapons.

Sanchez kicks through the door and discharges his 12 gauge attachment on his M16 twice brutally killing three people. Sanchez looks down and frowns upon seeing that one of those he killed is a woman. She was holding a knife and the Koran. Harris walks in followed one by one into the home. Marines begin carefully looking through various spots and objects. The inside of the house is hoarded with all kinds of random items and some trash.

Clear? Baker calls out from the front of the house to the back. Harris and Sanchez with a couple of others finish their sweeps quickly.

Clear! Sanchez replies loudly to make sure he is heard.

Clear. Harris agrees half-halfheartedly looking down at a stack of audio tapes next to a cassette player.

Gather up any weapons you see and watch out for booby traps. Baker tells his marines. He walks into the next room to see what Jimenez was looking at. Suddenly, there is an explosion that kills both of them and shakes the whole house.

What the fuck was that? Sanchez asks Harris as gun shots begin erupting more frequently. IED?

RPG! Corporal Smith shouts from outside the front door while running by. Harris shrugs his shoulders at Sanchez to show him he is not sure. They, with the remaining members of the team return to the front of the house and look out to see what is going on.

Jesus Christ, look at all them mother fuckers out there. Sanchez says to his team mates. There is another rocket explosion near by, but not close enough to see.

Yeah, they look pretty pissed off. Those cock suckers have some balls shooting at our people. Harris says in anger. Looking out the window he sees a couple of marines fall exchanging gunfire. Wounded civilians are dragged off by other people around them. The surrounding population is beginning to gather on the mosques to defend them from entry.

The growing crowd contains a variety of age ranges and did not exclude children. Most people appeared armed with something and waiting for the right times to use their items.

I bet who we are looking for is holed up in these mosques. Harris tells his fellow marines. Do we have any help coming?

None that I can see. Private Mullens reports to his buddies from the other corner of the room.

Me neither. Sanchez declares turning away from the window for a moment. He sighs and makes eye contact with Harris. That mob is getting closer.

It is, we need to get moving. We need to try and sneak around until we can re-group. Harris tells his team as they prepare for siege. Let's go.

The team of six jumps through the hole made by the explosion that killed Baker and Jimenez, one at a time. Harris stares at the bodies before exiting.

The marines turn and enter an alley managing to avoid being seen. The population is now battling the Marine Corps on a higher scale now. The air sings the song of battle while screams can be heard in between the rhythm of discharging fire arms. Explosions rip through the village.

It will not be long now. Harris tells his team as they prepare for their next move. Ordinance is due anytime. Artillery rounds rain down on the densely formed resistance causing serious injury or death to those it hit, but it did little to disperse the increasingly violent crowd.

What are we going to do? Sanchez asks Harris. We can't stay here much longer. He advises with his concern. Looking around, Harris notices a man hole under Mullens feet.

I hope you all are ready to get some shit on your boots. Harris points and Mullens lifts the lid holding it open as his fellow marines go in. They restore the metal plate behind them. Once they are down below, they
