Jim Taiclet, CEO of Lockheed Martin, flashed a big smile for the cameras as he walked with Vice President Kamala Harris outside of Orlando’s Hellfire missile factory this month.

Orlando is home to more U.S. war contractors than any other U.S. city save Washington, D.C., where the Fountain of Plenty is located. With Orlando’s Disney World, the fun makers, in the same location as the destroyer makers, metaphors are ripe. Is it simply a curious happening that the fun capital of the world sits alongside the gruesome killing factories of Orlando? 

Many saw Taiclet and the vice president on yesterday’s evening news. What was not covered was Kamala’s mysterious disappearance just an hour later at nearby Disney World.

It is no secret that Kamala loves to relax, escape from the Secret Service, and have some time to herself—fun time. She ordered her driver not to let the media know, switched to a small vehicle, and drove over to Disney World, miraculously avoiding being followed. Wearing a wig, make-up, and jeans she put on in the women’s restroom near the parking lot, no one noticed her as she bought her ticket.

Little has been revealed about Kamala’s Disney World visit, but the media were frantic as there was no sign of her boarding her aircraft for the return flight to Washington, and it was shocking that this most prominent presidential candidate had gone missing.

Then, it was discovered that friends knew she had been planning a break from the media in Orlando for some time. Jeffrey and Sonia Sachs, professors at Columbia University, received a tip that she would be at Disney World following the Lockheed Martin tour. They got to work assembling a team of peace and justice advocates to speak with Kamala. 

It is known that VP Harris insisted on going into the mythical darkened mansion alone. In a stunning press conference 24 hours after her disappearance, Harris stood before cameras and spoke of making peace with the Russians, Chinese, and all people in the Muslim World, as well as certifying that she would end arms shipments to Israel.

Early reports refer to the vice president as a victim of the Stockholm Syndrome, the psychological condition of a victim who identifies with and empathizes with their captor or abuser and their goals. 

The details are beginning to creep out of the Haunted House mystery. Our informants tell us that Kamala was gently taken captive inside the dark chambers by two tall women who immediately took her cell phone and gave it to a third woman who disappeared in the darkened mansion.  Kamala was then taken to a secured room in a Disney building near the Haunted Mansion. It was there that the women introduced her to Prof. Sachs, the world-renowned economics professor who, although from a Jewish family, is a spokesperson for the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences of the Vatican. 

Prof. Sachs smiled at Kamala, looked into her angry eyes, and said, “Vice President Harris, we welcome you to a friendly discussion, one you have not been able to have these past four years. Let me introduce you to some friends. Pope Francis asked us to speak to you and sends you his blessings. He sincerely wishes you well in your campaign and prays that you will lead the world in peace and justice.”

Kamala, the cool former San Francisco District Attorney seemed unafraid but angry. She lashed out at Sachs and others sitting around a long table. She demanded to know what was going on.

Settled in a comfortable leather chair in the middle of a long table in a Disney World meeting room, she asked who these people were surrounding her. Sitting next to her with a friendly smile was Cornel West, the former Harvard professor and current presidential candidate.

Cornel spoke first: “Vice President Harris, we have met before, so please be comfortable. You are our friend and associate. Put aside that  I am a candidate for the same job you will hopefully win if you can only speak out for justice and reason. Kamala, no one thought your courage to oppose the death penalty in California had a chance. You stood firm and won your case with the vast majority of your constituents supporting you.

Kamala, I believe you are on track to be the President of the United States. You and I are brother and sister, we are Americans, we are Black, we are Baptists, and my grandfather was a Baptist minister. We are one in so many ways and your leadership to end our frightful nuclear confrontation with Russia must end. I know you were faithful to Joe Biden since he selected you as his running mate, but that’s history. You must release yourself from the foolish and worldwide danger of threatening to use nuclear weapons. We must negotiate with Russia and withdraw our nuclear weapons from Europe. We must work to abolish all nuclear weapons, Kamala. Mutually assured destruction is insane. You are a stable person and we want you to act as a sane leader.”

A dark-skinned woman in her eighties from across the table introduced herself to Kamala. “Hello, Kamala. You may remember me when you visited South Africa some years back. My name is Ela Gandhi. My grandfather was Mahatma Gandhi. I’m a native South African and worked for decades to end apartheid in South Africa. We won, Kamala. Apartheid is over in South Africa but it is not over in Palestine.

My grandfather was thrown from a train in South Africa in 1893 because he was sitting in a European-only seat. Kamala, your roots are in Africa and India. You know injustice in those countries, and you know injustice in the United States, but you need to end the injustice of Israeli-imposed apartheid on the people of Palestine.”

Next to speak was a thin, thirty-something woman with a strong Arabic accent. She introduced herself to Kamala as the mother of four young children. She laid out photos of two girls and two boys, all under 15.

“My children are all gone. My husband is gone. I have no family but other family members under the rubble of Israeli bombings. I plead with you, Madam Vice President, to end the slaughter of my people.” She cried and was comforted by former war correspondent and Presbyterian Minister Chris Hedges. 

Hedges assured the woman that she was now safe and would be cared for, but the work to be done to ensure the health and safety of the people of Gaza can be accomplished. It can be done by the United States, which has allowed the tail of Israel to wag the sad dog, the mighty United States of America. 

Hedges turned to Kamala and spoke with kind firmness. “Vice President Harris, when you are elected, you have the opportunity to bring world peace more than any other leader in history. You need to end NATO, you will need to stop arms shipments to Israel, you will need to start the withdrawal of troops from the hundreds of U.S. imperial bases worldwide, you will need to negotiate with Russia to understand why they fear the West and how we can become friends, not enemies. Kamala, the insanity of using gun diplomacy has not worked, and the growing threat of war with China is the work of the Merchants of Death, the arms industry that thrives on repeat business. Tell the truth about all this in your campaign platform. The billionaires won’t like it, but the American people will.”

At the far end of the table was Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, Colin Powell’s Chief of Staff from 2002 to 2005.

“Kamala, I was very close to General Colin Powell. Colin and I were friends. Colin was Secretary of State of the United States when he was forced to lie that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction to provide cover for President George Bush, who had already decided to attack Iraq. Kamala, you must know that Colin later regretted telling that lie. 

Kamala, as a military man who worked in the Pentagon and with Secretary of State Colin Powell, I plead with you not to fall into the trap of the military-industrial complex. The Merchants of Death, the billionaire society of warmakers, uses fear to get more money for more weapons. They encourage enemy-making to ensure repeat business.

I implore you, Madam Vice President, to take your elected position as President of the United States to a new level of trust in the people, not trust in the Merchants of Death, the designers and makers of death-not-life-supporting services and products.”

Economics expert Jeffrey Sachs told Kamala the “call to divest in the human rights abuser Israel needs to be a plank in your campaign platform. Follow the young, including the students at your alma mater, Howard University. The money flow to Israel must stop from the U.S. Government and investment firms supporting genocide.”

“May I say something?” said Andrey Belousov.    

“Madam Vice President, I am the leading Russian security official, and I am pleased to have been invited to meet you and plead with you to change the programmed hate Americans have for Russians. I understand it has deep historical roots because of our Communist past and economic threat to the West. Madam Vice President, I can assure you Russia has no desire to invade the West. We have been invaded by Mongols, Poles and Turks, and French, British, German and even American troops came into our Motherland in 1919, and no one nation has ever suffered as we did between 1940 and 1945 with Nazi invasions.

Russia has reason to fear the West, Madam Vice President. We want to be friends with the West. We ended our Warsaw Pact in 1990 when the Americans said they would not advance an inch toward our Motherland of Russia.

You must know the betrayal of the West, Madam Vice President. NATO, which is the United States with its European vassals, has instead put nuclear weapons at our door and sent tanks, planes, artillery and troops to our borders.

Imagine, Madam Vice President, if we sent our troops and missiles to Mexico or Canada. Well, you need not imagine since the Cuban Missile Crisis is evidence enough. That was 60 years ago. Now, the United States has not only nuclear missiles at our door but has destroyed our early warning system by sending missiles inside of Russia to destroy our radar.

We need to discuss and end this confrontation, Madam Vice President. The U.S. has a first-strike policy with nuclear weapons. We do not have that dangerous policy.

The world looks to you to end this madness, Madam Vice President.” 

The Stockholm Syndrome did not have days and weeks to pressure their subject, Vice President Harris. After several hours, the two tall women who escorted Kamala from the Haunted House arrived and asked everyone but Kamala to leave. 

They informed Kamala that her phone would soon be delivered by the Secret Service when they find it on the empty top chair of the stalled Ferris wheel. The Ferris wheel happened to restart as the Stockholm Syndrome team drove away from Disney World and the tall, smiling women waved goodbye to Kamala.

Critics who have learned of the Syndrome event have shrugged it off as inconsequential to the firm stance Kamala has maintained to stay the course of the truculent foreign affairs stand of her boss, President Joe Biden. The FBI claims that only 8% of Stockholm Syndrome subjects convert.

Vice President Harris is expected to respond to this report soon in a press conference.
