Its not "anti-islam" either as the Abdulin Al-Din who I based on a real life

Anyhoot... this is just my own modern-day alternate reality story. Its heavily
influence by:
-prophecies by clarivoiants
-Command & Conquer stories
-religious prophecies
-real world events
-real world technologies (some in development, other already in existance)
-my own imagination
Here's ALL 25 of the Military factions I have.
