Intervention
On a bright clear day in April, Liverpool was destroyed.
After First Contact, Earth and Ashnar had developed a stable, if tense, interplanetary relationship. After much integration, immigration and cultural exchange it became clear that the Ashnari people were living under a brutal authoritarian theocracy that crushed women, children and "deviants" under its heal. Most of Earth was content to live and let live, until the detonation of a fusion bomb terrorist attack that left Liverpool, England a searing crater full of death.
In the aftermath of the most horrific terrorist attack in Earth's history, the Prime Minister of the British Republic attempts to attain parliamentary consent for the invasion of the Ashnar homeworld.
A short story that explores the relationship between culture, religion, society, the military, politics and morality (that if popular will result in a full length novel) is the third release from up and coming, 21 year old, Amazon-exclusive author Thomas Murphy whose previous short stories have reached #17 in the Kindle bestseller lists.
