The map projected on the wall flickered and changed as new reports were recieved and added. Franz Archinard studied it intently from the other side of his desk.
"War, war, and more war," he muttered. "Everywhere you turn."

Excerpt from a public address by Councilman Archinard
"In these times of war and destruction, we would like to think that the Swiss Confederacy can remain a friend to all nations. We would like to believe that our common humanity would allow us to work together to resolve our differences. We would like to think that the light of reason can drive out the shadows of war. It seems this is not the case."
"What is happening around the world, from Mexico to Japan, from the Sahara Desert to unnamed islands in the Pacific, is nothing less than the next world war. A time of sword and gun is upon us, though we but wish for peace."
"In these times of crisis, all we can do is hope that we have learned from our mistakes. To that end, Switzerland will offer the hand of friendship to all nations, be they large or small. We will bring food, medicine, and clean water. And if need be we will bring protection, and do all that is in our power to keep what is left of a shattered peace."
"Thank you, and good night."
