Just out of curiosity, were the patriots in anyway shape or form involved with the shadow moses incedent?
If so, What were they after?

You're lying, I've been you

Have you played MGS4? If not then you might not want to read what I put in my spoiler tags.

First things first. Hideo Kojima hadn't planned on future MGS games after MGS1 so he hadn't thought up The Patriots when making MGS1. So no, there wasn't originally an intention in having the Patriots apart of Shadow Moses.

I'm sure I'm missing out on a lot more info but I'm to brain dead to think of more.

my computers whack and i cant open the spoiler tags so im not sure if it was mentioned.. but Ocelot has always been involved with the patriots, hasnt he? In the phone call at the end of mg1, we find out he was secretly planning to hijack the metal gear alongside president George Sears, who we find is really soludus in mgs2. Of course, Soludus is againt the patriots, but Ocelot was betraying him as well. So even though it wasnt mentioned, Ocelots intentions for getting metal gear were the same as they were in mgs2.

On a side note of this topic, it is interesting to note that when I was playing Twin Snakes the other day, I noticed a line (that I'm pretty sure) doesn't appear in the original MGS.

When Master Miller/Liquid reveals to Campbell that Naomi is a spy, Campbell says something like:
"Or she could be working for... It cant be!", and then says something like "If shes been working for 'them', then we're in big trouble!''.
Snake then asks Campbell who 'they' are, but the Colonel changes the subject. It isn't mentioned again.

I'm pretty sure that this was included in The Twin Snakes as a nod to The Patriots (who weren't mentioned at all in MGS1).

Note on my other post:
The exact same snippet IS in MGS1 after all, so its likely that Kojima had a rough idea of where he wanted to go with the MGS Story (in the direction of an Illuminati style organization i.e: The Patriots).

The Patriots seemed to control everything from the 70's onward so i doubt that the Shadow Moses incident went unnoticed by them, and was probably staged by them seen as President Sears (Solidus) was a Patriot puppet at the time.

I have another side note/query in the matter.
