The Origin Of The Snakes
Les Enfants Terribles- The Terrible Children
In 1972, in order to artificially create the most powerful soldier possible, the U.S. government secretly extracted genetic data from Big Boss (considered at the time to be the greatest soldier ever) while he was in a coma recovering from war injuries, and reproduce it through analog cloning and the Super Baby method. One of Big Boss's cells was fertilized into an egg and divided into eight babies, forming octuplets. However, five of the children were intentionally aborted in order to encourage strong fetal growth and guarantee the survival of the other clones. Two of the surviving clones were then genetically altered so that one would carry dominant genes and the other recessive genes, while the third one would be an exact clone of Big Boss.
The three clones all have the same "Snake" codename formerly used by Big Boss during Operation: Snake Eater (Naked Snake) after reaching adulthood. The clones are collectively known as the Sons of Big Boss.
Solid Snake- The first of the clones, who inherited Big Boss's dominant genes and was raised in the U.S. Ironically enough, he was the one who defeated Big Boss during the Outer Heaven Crisis and again, during the Zanzibar Land Uprising, before ultimately killing him in combat.
Liquid Snake- The second of the clones, who inherited Big Boss's recessive genes and was raised in the U.K. However, he was led to believe that he was the "inferior clone" with the recessive genes and began harboring an intense hatred towards Solid Snake. During the Shadow Moses Island incident, Liquid took over the nuclear disposal site where Metal Gear Rex was being developed while serving as field commander of Fox-Hound.
Solidus Snake- The third of the clones and an exact duplicate of Big Boss, inheriting both, recessive and dominant genes. Solidus served as President of the U.S. during the Shadow Moses incident under the name of George Sears. He later became leader of the terrorist group Sons of Liberty during the Big Shell takeover. He was eventually killed by Raiden.Outer Heaven, A Nazi Group?
Was Outer Heaven Associated With Nazis?
(Disclaimer-This is not racial by any means. I'm will not allow racism or such things on this site)
I found a picture in the manual of Metal Gear for the MSX2 computer console. The picture suprised me and was something I did not expect. It was a Outer Heaven symbol with a skull and on the skull was what I thought a Nazi Swastika. I knew that this wasn't what it was so I did some research. Heres the logo-
Wierd, huh?Well I looked around and noticed this sign is different from the Nazi Swastika.
The symbol in the image is actually a Swavastika or a Sauvastika. It is in fact used in both Indian and Hindu heritage. It comes from the Sanskrit, sauvastika being a vriddhi-derivation of svastika. In English, the spelling is meant to distinguish the left-facing from the right-facing. In Hinduism, sauwastika refers to the anti-clockwise symbol and represents masculine energy, whereas the clockwise swastika represents feminine energy. The evidence for sauwastika seems sketchy, and there seems to be very little-other than conjecture-to support the notion that the left-facing swastika is regarded as evil in Hindu tradition. Although the more common form is the right-facing swastika, Hindus all over India and Nepal still use the symbol in both orientations for the sake of balance. Buddhists almost always use the left-facing swastika. In India it (the Gammadion) bears the name of swastika, when its arms are bent towards the right, and sauwastika when they are turned in the other direction. The distinction has acquired significance in some forms of neo-paganism in which it is claimed that the right-facing swastika has a sunwise rotation whereas the left-facing sauwastika has a widdershins rotation. These rotations are said to have traditional opposite associations-
sunwise- toward God, lucky, good.
widdershins- away from God, unlucky, evil.
That may be so but heres a picture of a Gautama Buddha-
Depicted in this picture, you see that the Buddha has the Swavastika symbol on his chest. It is also said the symbol on his chest is a heart seal. So the swavastika can't be an evil or unlucky symbol especially if it is was it is in this picture.
Heres another picture showing the different facings of a swavastika and a swastika.
So no one really can tell what the symbol really represents but with the evidence, the symbol represents luck and goodness despite most reports. In the end, the symbol in the Outer Heaven logo is not a swastika but a swavastika.
What Happened To Big Boss After Zanzibar Land?
Was Big Boss Frozen In Time Or Did He Beome A Snatcher?
No one really knows what happened to Big Boss after he died in Zanzibar Land? In the actual timeline, in Metal Gear 2, Big Boss is killed but according to the earliest account in Snake's Revenge, at the end it was revealed that Big Boss had come back as a robot. In Metal Gear Solid, it was also revealed that the Patriots seized his remains so that they can continue research and that a single strand of his hair was the only left remains of Big Boss. His remains were used to create the Genome soldiers. Some say his remains were seized from the U.S. government and became frozen and some say he turned into a Snatcher robot from the Kojima hit "Snatcher". Snatcher's storyline takes place in 2046 and Big Boss died in 1999 giving this scenario more than enough time to occur. Here is some info on the Snatcher thanks to the Snatcher glossary. By the way, these aren't certain but heres some info anyway.
Snatchers are bio-roid robots, which appeared in Neo Kobe three years ago. They appear at night and in the winter months, killing humans then copying them and replacing them in society. Because of this, they have been dubbed "Snatchers". It is unknown where the Snatchers originated from or what their goals are. Some think they are a new weapon, while others maintain that they are an invasion from another world. To combat this menace, the Junker Agency was established in August 2047.
Snatcher Characteristics
1. Snatchers operate almost exclusively at night and during the winter months.
2. Snatchers only snatch VIPs. Their ultimate goal appears not to be the snatch itself, but some secondary effect of it.
3. Snatcher targets are restricted by their physical size. While they can adjust the size of their major body areas these adjustments are limited. As such, their victims are exclusively persons of 150-180 cm in height. This makes the snatching of children, the elderly, etc, impossible.
4. Snatcher weapons- A mouth-firing laser cannon.
5. Weak point- Thin slit portions of their skull armour, which make head size adjustment possible.

*These are just possibilites but they are not for sure. Due to the events of Snake's Revenge and Metal Gear Solid, there are mixed thoughts on what happened.
Well in the end, no one knows Big Boss's fate. Hopefully in future Kojima games we will find out. Good night and good luck.
The Simplest Patriots Explanation Possible
Huh? The Patriots?!
When we were introduced to the "Patriots" in Metal Gear Solid 2, at the time, some fans didn't know what was going on, some were confused as to who they were as we received bits of info and so forth. For those out there who are still unsure, I am here to give the simplest and quickest summarization.
The Patriots (aka La Li Lu Le Lo)
-Organization who ran or controlled the U.S. since the formation of America-
-Controls military, elections and the economy-
-More powerful than the President-
Wisemen's Committee
-BRANCH of the Patriots-
-Consists of 12 members-
-All supposedly dead since 1909-
-Every key decision is made by them-
-The President does not know their identities-
-Located in Manhattan or were-
(The Wisemen's Committee)
You got it?! Simple, right! Hope that helps.
