Mission idea (new)



    With all of the news lately about the white farmer situation in Zimbabwe I though this might work for a mission idea;
    The Commercial Farmers' Union hires a cell or two to defend farms from squatters and harassment, since the police won't (in spite of court orders to do so). This would require the use of non-lethal means and some diplomacy at first.  Set this during the national election and things could get out of hand quickly. 
    The British Gov. could hire a cell for the above reasons (most/all whites in Zimbabwe are British nationals since Zimbabwe was once a colony).  To aggravate this the Mugabe gov. is spouting a lot of anti-British rhetoric and saying it will expel all whites from the country.
    Or during the elections the opposition party hires a cell(s) to protect the candidate(s) with funds from the Commercial Farmers' Union.  This would be a standard EP run with political overtones and could embroil the cell(s) in a civil conflict.
    The problems I see are; the cell(s) would be working against the "elected" government, good chance of an incident during elections (cell escorting farmers to poll, 'veterans' try and intimidate/harass voters).
    Any ideas on this or would the legal dept. even allow it?
