Ziemeļāfrikas Vadijas nāciju vada ekscentrisks un egoistisks maniaks, cietsirdīgs līderis vārdā Hafezs Aladēns. Viņu paša zemē ienīst praktiski visi, tomēr katru, kas atļausies iebilst, sagaida smaga nākotne, tostarp iespējama nāve, par ko diktators paziņo ar savu slaveno "galvas nociršanas" signālu. Nu Aladēns izsaukts uz Ņujorku, lai ANO tiktu pratināts par savas valsts kodolieroču programmu. Kā jau gaidāms, ceļojums izvēršas greizi.

Saeko Shirasu is a 25-year-old war front-line photo-journalist who became a celebrity after taking a picture of civilians raising a makeshift UN flag in war-torn Uddiyana. The image then became an instant symbol for peace. However, just before the peace agreement is achieved, the flag was stolen by an armed extremist group in order to obstruct the truce. The UN peacekeepers decide to covertly send in a SDC (pronounced as "Seedac"—Special Development Command) unit to retrieve the flag. Because of her connection with the "Flag" photo, Saeko Shirasu was offered the job of following the SDC unit as a front line journalist. Among the SDC unit's equipment is the HAVWC (High Agility Versatile Weapon Carrier—pronounced "havoc") mecha armored vehicle.

November 1947. The United Nations votes the partition plan for Palestine. For some, it is a dream becoming reality; for others, it is the beginning of a catastrophe. Seventy years after this historic vote, the land of Palestine remains an open wound, a battleground for two peoples torn apart by their shared history, a source of inextricable tension in the region and even beyond the borders of the Middle East.
