Intergalactic Summit

We, the Mishi Liberation Army, have chosen today to make ourselves public. For too long we have bowed and scraped, bit our tongue, endured insults at the hands of the Amarr. We have accepted the state of affairs because we have not had the means to change them. We watched with pride at the Minmatar threw off their shackles, but we knew it was not our time yet. That has changed. With vast numbers of Ni-Kunnis in the Pod, we have formed networks both inside and outside of Mishi. We have funding and equipment to match our resolve.

At 01730 local time, Azdama, Mishi IV, the Mishi Liberation Army attacked the MIO provincial headquarters. The attack was successful beyond our wildest dreams. In the space of thirty minutes we killed over fifty of the occupiers of our world and demolished the building. This is just the beginning.

Let this Declaration serve as a warning to the occupiers of Mishi. Nowhere is safe. We will not stop until our world is free and the Mishi Free State is established. Any sign of Imperial power is a target, from the property assessors to the Holders to Amarrian Ministries. To the Ni-Kunni we say rise up and stand with us! Now has come the time to stop being fifth class citizens and servants and slaves. Now is the time for freedom, for us to stand tall and proud.

We also seek to reach out to our friends in the Republic and the Federation. We ask that you stand with us and help us to achieve the freedom that you have. We need support, equipment, arms, training. Most importantly we need training if we are to be victorious.


For the Mishi Free State. Praise to the Rainmaker.

What is this?

The Ni-Kunni are not treated as "fifth class" citizens in the Empire, most of the Ni-Kunni are valued, productive members of Imperial society and they tend to favor jobs that are central to the operation and sustaining of the Empire's industrial core. I am curious what you seek to accomplish by broadcasting your terrorist attacks against Imperial facilities and a public cry for help to the enemies of the Empire, such action will warrant you attention of a kind you do not want.

It disheartens me to see that you are trying to call other Ni-Kunni to engage in this senseless slaughter and chaos. I will pray that few, if any, heed your siren call and so spare themselves and their souls the hardship to come. Turn away from this nonsense.

This is an Amarr matter and does fall under Federation jurisdiction. All we can offer is our sincere hope that this conflict is resolved peacefully and with as little bloodshed as possible.

All anti-Imperial Ni-Kunni separatists are welcome to seek asylum on Kaztropol.

On Kaztropol we have excellent job placement programs and we have a wide variety of social services available to make your people's transition easier. The University of Kaztropol offers many continuing education classes from paramilitary training to home economics and all parents are encouraged to enroll their children in Heathen Scouts.

Please evemail Heathen Legion for a free brochure on immigration to Kaztropol.

The main problem here, pilot Ayanara, is that the Ni-Kunni have not rebelled. A single planetside terrorist attack of no meaning, engineered by a rogue capsuleer, took place. Ministry of Internal Order will deal with your baseliner accomplices in a few hours, this thread on IGS will sink to page 2, and everyone will forget about your little group of madmen.

Speaking from the strategic point of view, your situation is much worse than that of the Intaki: first, there are many more disgruntled Intakis around, and the Federal regime allows them to congregate and express their political views openly; second, Intaki homeworld is in the Caldari-Gallente war zone, so the separatists can appeal for the support of the Megacorps and receive it; third, the Intaki separatists also have Mordu's Legion and the Syndicate to appeal to.

But sure, go ahead.

The freedom to choose your own path is an honourable one, throw of the shackles of oppression and win freedom for your people. the fight is long and hard, but worth it in the end, we will reach this end one day and so, i hope, do you.

Mrs. Ayanara,

I would strongly suggest you turn yourself in to the local authorities and give up this foolishness. You may be fortunate enough to receive mercy for your crimes, though I doubt it after your actions and public statement. If you do not surrender, I expect this will be resolved rather quickly by Imperial forces.

You're all assuming that the MinIntOrd building was actually destroyed.

Really... The Ni-Kunni fifth class citizens? I'm surprised you managed to convince ANYONE that this was true. Whatever might be said about the Amarrians, they've never treated your people or mine as anything but equals since we started acting in such a manner whereby we deserved it.

You also make it a point to say anything negative about the Empire and the Amarr at every opportunity whether factually based or not.

Also from the same study: "[t]hose who remain enslaved tend to be criminals, heretics, revolutionaries, and malcontents who have been enslaved as punishment."

Criminals. By that they mean Ni-Kunni that have had no other choice. We were stepped on, oppressed. Of course there would be a number, a larger number than you think that would resort to crime. As for the others, the Underground Ni-Kunni Church has existed since the beginning of the occupation, it is a sad fact that some get caught. We, the Mishi Liberation Army, have our roots in the Underground Ni-Kunni church and seek to right this injustice. As for our fellow revolutionaries an malcontents, we are actively working to free you from your chains. Be patient and do not give up faith in the cause.

Also, I will take this post to explain our roots and legitimacy.

When the Amarrians came, there were those of us that tried to resist. It was quickly evident to even the most die hard resistance fighter that to fight the Amarr then was futile. So, we we appeared to submit. But in secret, we kept as much of our traditions and religion alive through the Underground Ni-Kunni Church. This state of affairs continued until the Minmatar rebellion. At which point the Council for a Free Mishi was formed. However it was quickly pointed out what happened on Starkman Prime and with only one world, we could not risk it at the time. That changed with the pod. We have pilots that support us with their vast wealth made in space, pilots that have pledged to fight in defense of their homeworld.
