Cobra is a global broad-based militant secular resistance organization founded by Father Cobra sometime between 1978 and late 1979. It operates as a network comprising both a multinational, stateless army and a radical militia movement calling against social and economic inequality, high unemployment, and greed, as well as corruption and the undue influence of corporations on government. It has been designated a "terrorist organization" by the United States, although its actions are unofficially supported by the Ottoman Confederacy.
