  Person on Tape : [voice on tape]  Good morning, Mr. Phelps. As you know, for the past twenty years, the United Nations has worked throughout the Near East to abolish slave markets. This effort has been successful, except in El Kabar, a small country on the Persian Gulf whose ruler, Ibn Borca, an absolute monarch, continues to auction thousands of human beings into slavery each year. Borca's principle source of slaves is this man, Karl de Groot. His raids into nearby nations to abduct free men and women into slavery could aggravate the tense situation in the Near East. Your mission, Jim, should you decided to accept it, is to stop this traffic in slaves and rid El Kabar of de Groot and Borca. As always, should any of your IM force be caught or killed, the Secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions. This recording will self-destruct in five second. Good luck, Jim.
