You would feel quite differently if you were of Faith, which those who initially attacked the structure were, and many of those involved in it's final destruction were.

Excuse me, ma'am, but I am just a "filthy heathen", and for all I do I will be probably boiled in hell, or whatever they do with all the terrible people. But yet I do what must be done and treat enemies according to their actual threat for maximal efficiency, because someone has to do it.

Better me, than, say, your children, right?

My point, Ms Kim, is that the priority of a threat of this nature is going to be different among the Faithful than those such as yourself. There was no implication of right or wrong. Some of your fellow countrymen assisted in this endeavor and I would not be surprised, or at all offended, if they felt as you and did not place this as high a priority as I.

We both serve our respective people, Ms Kim... and I am not sure what my children would be doing in Hasmijaala, let alone piloting vessels of war...

Not only have those who destroyed this tower damned themselves to the lowest Hell, but they have also drenched their own hands in the blood of slaves.

During previous actions against my towers, PIE had brought along a Kamiera boarding party, supposedly to reduce casualties among the slaves that would otherwise occur had the tower's hangers simply been destroyed and whatever slaves that survived picked up among the wreckage. This time, however, it appeared to my scout that the fleet simply destroyed the hanger as soon as the shields fell. This action, I believe, would have killed about half of the slaves instantly; that is, the aggressing fleet just flat out killed about 25,000 slaves.

Pilots from PIE and SFRIM did eventually bring in transports to recover survivors from the now-destroyed hanger; however, I took advantage of a moment when some of the fleet was off-grid to destroy the wreckage before they could complete the work. Almost immediately after that, someone hotdropped the fleet and destroyed several ships — surely this was a sign of Divine Judgement against those who would attack me and a holy and righteous God. So, too, was the intermittant fighting between I-RED and PY-RE — truly God has sown seeds of discord among his enemies. Amen. Amarr Victor.

A study of the admittedly sketchy post action reports and what I've heard suggests that only Pyre shot the hangar. Perhaps the Sansha infiltrators in Pyre were mad that Pyre's rules wouldn't let them take the slaves for their own nefarious purposes? Yet another reason why the 24th Imperial Crusade should no longer tolerate heathens, or worse, in their ranks.

As it is, from reports I've heard, it appears that the delays caused by the needless infighting caused by Pyre resulted in a Death by Design hot drop that forced the fleet off grid before the evacuation could be complete, allowing you to inhumanely murder the rest for obscene reasons known only to you.

You as the prime cause, are the ultimate party responsible for the suffering of the slaves.

Your "study" is like your posts, ****.

Your post is quite amusing but instead of appealing to the 24th IC you could stop being an impotent coward and take matters in your own hands. We both know you can't and wont. Please spare us with your useless opinion unless you have something to show for.

You're demonstrating your lack of understanding of the generation of tower structure killmails, Pieter.

Every individual who fires on a tower and remains in system is added to the killmail of every structure that is subsequently destroyed. I was in warp to retrieve my Prorator when the hangar was destroyed, I never once locked nor fired on it.

Stop trying to pawn off your own deliberate effort.

I fire and lock as directed by my Officers. As I'm sure you do. This is also my first tower kill.

Tuulinen, let's be frank. You say your corporation would never desire hostilities, yet you've never once so much as expressed mild regret over the Sansha-ication of PYRE. I-RED does not treat with pirate organizations. PYRE is, at this point, a pirate organization.

Maker, you even threatened to fire on your personal friend, Lt. Kernher, during this operation.

Imagine the utter horror it must have been for those slaves at that moment. Knowing they were under attack. Knowing they could do nothing about it. Knowing they were going to die; a cold death under strange stars; a death without purpose; a death without meaning.

25,000 slaves. You killed them. You are slave killers. That is what you are.

As if they weren't already experiencing utter horror when they were in your possession. Their death in your hands already has no meaning, no purpose. They are already unable to do anything about being in your confinement hangars.

You killed them long before the shots were fired, you slave killer. The slaves who were evacuated successfully gained 'resurrection'. The others were dead to begin with.

You are the true responsible party.

Cognitive dissonance much?

Look in the mirror before you start accusing others of killing slaves you were already intending to kill. Unless you had discarded and spaced every mirror in your vicinity to start with.

It is also pretty damned clear that you are more sore about losing the tower which you can't adequately protect than the lives of the slaves. I am going to keep calling you out on that.

Seriously? I can only assume you don't know me as well as I thought you did.

I can't say I support the political affiliations of those Nation Loyalists in our ranks. I'll go further - I despise Kuvakei and I think his vision is sick and wrong. I also think it's important to remember that they are just that, Loyalist Capsuleers, not True Citizens and not True Slaves AND that they are forbidden from networking prisoners while serving Pyre Falcon - all things that I know I-RED knows, because I told them to Korsavius myself.

In addition, the hell with what YOU claim we are, the facts remain that Pyre Falcon is registered with Kaalakiota Corporation, I am a registered Citizen of Kaalakiota with a registered domicile in the Nonni system that I share with my registered spouse, who is a citizen of Wiyrkomi Corporation.

During the operation yesterday we acted wholly within the limits of our sanction as part of the 24th Imperial Crusade. We did NOT target 24th Imperial Crusade members who weren't made legal targets by their own actions and we engaged YOU only because your VERY OWN stubborn diplomacy demanded it.

As for my friendship with Lieutenant Kernher, well that's my business and hers. I note that our friendship didn't prevent her from locking my ship, no doubt at the orders of her superiors, and I commend her on her attentiveness to her duty.

A shame they felt the need to order her to protect your forces - although I quite understand your need for the protection.

All in all, were I you, I'd be ashamed to utter the name of the Maker in the context of the rest of your statement.

You certainly knew she was bloodthirsty enough not to run away when you warped to us, so I have to lay the blame for your loss during the engagement firmly on your own Command Staff.

Yes.. yes we know, you despise your fellow Kirjuun. As for the hostilities between our two organizations it is well placed, the State does not tolerate pirates of any flavor.

The fact is the tower was destroyed thanks to the quick response of our allies in PIE, and in turn Ishukone-Raata was pleased to be of assistance in both operations against these pirate forces.

Now shall we stop with the battle of morality when really we know there is very.. very little on the opposing front.

Nobody asked you to justify your diplomacy again, Revenent, I simply ask you to own it publicly. Since you declared hostilities it'd be nice if your mouthpiece stopped pretending to be surprised when you get shot at.

I must admit, though, to being surprised you've taken this tack. I doubted you really wanted to get into a situation where we're all judged by the people we've flown with, eh, monsieur?

Well well isn't this a big bag of tiresome. Dirty laundry says more about the person airing it than the person who wore it. Bear that in mind.

Good work PY-RE, PIE and I-RED on ridding the cluster of this abhorrent tower. Good work in dispensing a harsh but merciful end to the poor souls condemned simply by being in the possession of a madman, from which none of us could have taken them without breaching the structure. No one wishes death on innocents, but considering their fate, one may consider them euthanised - a tragic end, but one far more conducive to them resting in peace than the alternative.
