Two attempted assassinations in 3 days prompts political response

HESTIVIKEN - Five men were arrested in Hestiviken in the early morning hours yesterday, after an anonymous tip led SHIELD investigators and local police to surround and search the men's van. Found within the van were prepared home-made bomb parts and military weapons hardware, and all five men are reportedly charged under conspiracy to commit acts of terrorism, among others.

All five men are known to be members of the far-right Golden Unity movement, and further investigations into the men's homes later yesterday revealed a plot to bomb major transit hubs in the city and assault local government offices under the guise of making the attacks look like foreign terrorism. Violent propaganda against so-called "enemies of the people" was found, especially against prominent Kohout administration leaders, along large stores of weapons and ammunition. Information found at the homes has led to indictment of a further 13 individuals, with the investigation still ongoing.

This is the second time this year a major false-flag terrorist assassination plot by members of the Golden Unity movement was foiled by federal investigators, whose leadership could not be reached for comment.

The news of this most recent terrorist plot comes off the back of an attempted attack in Nyköping just three days prior, where a lone gunman named Ellis Walsh was shot and killed attempting to force entry into the White House after being discovered by security personnel. Further details in that case revealed a stockpile of weapons, and extensive anti-government/anti-business writings from Mr. Walsh, who expressed an almost pathological desire to "punish" opponents of the National Messanic Party, who he deemed as "traitors to the people" in a reflection of NMP political rhetoric. NMP leadership has likewise been unavailable for comment regarding that matter.

While the perpetrators in both instances were stopped before harm could be done, both events so close together and so close to the heart of federal politics have sparked a debate among both people and politicians across the country as to the most appropriate way to deal with "radical ideologies," and even "radical parties," within Nyland.

Opinions on the topic have seemingly transcended the left-right party divide. Both André Davidsson and Leon Dahlin (Ultranationalist and Moderate party assemblypersons, respectively) have come out in favor of enabling a ban on "anti-democratic institutions" of all stripes. According to Assemblyman Davidsson, "Every party whose goal is to abolish the democrazy not only should be banned, but has to be banned. We've seen in too many places around the world what happens to democracy when you allow these sorts of [undemocratic] institutions to fester."

On the otherhand, several Liberalist and Centrist members have come out against such blatant bans. Milan Vuletaski (NL) harshly criticized such discussions, saying that "Nyland already has a system to get rid of violent, undemocratic terrorists masquerading as political ideologies; we call it 'the judiciary.' Trust in our security and police apparatus to catch these criminals, and trust in our courts to bring them to justice. We will catch these people and punish them as they manifest themselves, without the need to erode our democratic institutions from within."

The White House has not made official comment on the matter, simply saying that the administration does not support the "curbing of political freedoms."
