Times they are a changing...

Telecast of a recent report on ENN...

"There has been some late breaking news from the small African country of Bongolesia. Troubled for years by fighting between the army and anti-government forces, the Bongolesian government has announced that it was finally able to defeat the dissidents and they are hoping to enter a new age of peace and prosperity.

The leader of Bongolesian, President P'hat Daddee B'wonah, had this to say...
"Our glorious National Defense Force has officially destroyted the final remnants of the anti-government hoodlums known as BARF. While rumors abound of the "Lions of Allah", we can be sure they are nothing more than that. This is a time to rejoice in our new time of peace!"

The discovery of oil a few years ago has provided a much needed boost to their stagnant economy and with the end to violence in the region, the UN is stepping up their humanitarian efforts as well. Acting with the support of the European Federation and the United States, the UN has begun implimenting numerous plans throughout the country with a focus on improving healthcare and drought relief to the stricken nation. The price tag for this effort is $681 million, with a majority of this money being provided by the UN General Relief Fund.

Sports is coming up next after this quick break..."
