Intergalactic Summit

Recent events have opened my eyes to the fact that there are very few government officials who have a mind for the subtlety and strategic thinking which government requires. Not only has Heth been acting like the madman he is, but even those the Federation trusted have shown that their grip on sanity is dominated by nothing more than instinctual rage. I trust there are still individuals out there capable of understanding the message I am about to convey.

While the Gallente militia recently adopted a more skeptical approach to their Minmatar allies after numerous reports of friendly fire, the Gallente Navy have wisely kept themselves from demanding retribution. They have shown themselves above petty demands for vengeance, but I can assure you all that this suppression of emotion is not as effective in all parts of Gallente space. There are already numerous people who wish for Gallentean retribution against the Republic, and they are likely to make themselves heard in the political arena.

The current situation is salvageable, and a common enemy at this time is likely to help strengthen the Gallente-Minmatar bond back to what it was. However, if the Minmatar launch another strike in Gallente space, no senator will risk the approval of the electorate by aiding the Minmatar, should the Amarr happen to launch a reclamation campaign while the Minmatar fleet is engaged elsewhere.

I would also like to point out to any Minmatar that might be reading that the Amarr already knew what I have said in this thread, and probably didn't need the reminder.

What a wonderful person you are. You get to look down at the Caldari and the Minmatar at the same time, and you are still claim you are allies with them?

Thats not being an ally. Thats being busy declareing yourself superior just because others have a different culture and way of thinking.

Just what was needed, another apologetic of the invasion of the Empire. Come with your friends, captain Fatalis, we're waiting for you. We have just kicked the Minmatarr out of most of the war zone, so we can devoid some time to showing you why it's a bad idea to invade amarrian space.

I like you, Morwen. We should do drinks.

You seem crusty.

There are easier ways to get Rhinoplasty.

I'll hook you up for a price.

I'm not sold on that last part, Mr. Kim, but I'll agree the idiocy in this "reminder" is palpable.

This drivel isn't directed towards the Empire at all, it's a "threat" aimed squarely at the Tribes.

Conjecture not taking into account a number of other factors that you place upon an entire few trillion people as opposed to one person. Your assumption is not fact.


The only 'what is' here is what scenario is playing out in your mind based on a biased fantasy.


I honestly don't care what you are, aside from blatantly wrong in your assumptions and logical fallacies.

Well however you look at it this wasn't called for.... or needed.... at all.

To recover from madness, one must first acknowledge it exists.

Like I will, if those calling me delusional can point to a senator who is more fond of peace than of his position in senate. If they can show me that I was hallucinating during the Minmatar attack, the friendly fire of their militia, and the reactions of the Gallentean public.

You may consider me fringe, yet I have not spoken of what I wish, only of what I fear will be. When the first Naglfar opened fire, I feared war was already upon us - and I'm both pleased and surprised to see I have been wrong thus far. However, considering the Fleet did not succeed in their mission, I simply wish to dissuade them from trying again by pointing out the repercussions. If it turns out my reminder was unnecessary, so much for the better.

And we will stop calling you delusional if you can point to evidence that the Minmatar would attempt to invade the Federation based on a single (admittedly horrible) event despite multiple, more positive events, occurring between our people. If you can how us that every single house within the Empire would attempt a strike when their own house isn't in order. If you can show why the Federation would forgo it's only ally (guns are guns if they point at your enemy, doesn't matter who points) because of one tragedy and risk facing both the State and Empire, with an absorbed Republic, in a major war.

Also do you know the agenda and platform of every Senator? How do you know they'd take a war? How do you know what the majority of voters want? How do you know how they'll behave? Do you have sentiment data and predictive future trends? Facts? Evidence?

Well?



So your method of dissuade is threaten them on behalf of a government without being a representative? You nationalists get more ballsy by the day. You ever heard of Occam's razor? It states that, among competing hypotheses, the hypothesis with the fewest assumptions should be selected. So, which hypothesis has the fewest assumptions?

1) The Minmatar may likely invade the Federation full force and the Federation won't help the Minmatar when another invasion is launched by an opportunistic Amarr and then loose its one ally to face the State and Empire solo.

2) The Minmatar and Federation will continue diplomacy and talks and, IF either group is invaded, will put aside current heated issues and kick the crap out of the invading force as we have done for years.

Well?

Exactly.

So before you start spewing crap and assumptions, make sure its your own opinion and don't sweep the rest of us Federals into your grandiose generalizations.

In other words; check yourself before you wreck yourself, *****.
