On The Edge Of Armageddon

Tonight TV viewers will decide the next American Idol winner. Regardless of whether it's Clay Aikens or Ruben Studdard who comes out on top, fans of the loser are expected to take to the streets tonight to vent their anger. At the same time, fans of the winner will be out celebrating by setting fires, overturning police cars, smashing store windows, and looting. Should the two camps come into direct contact with one another, violence and mayhem are certain to result. The worst fear among security experts and entertainment industry officials is that one side or the other will come into possession of a nuclear warhead. An even worse scenario, say military officials, is that Simon may decide to turn on the charm and try to broker a peace deal.

In response to the rising tension, the Office of Homeland Security has raised the terror alert level to Code Orange.
