Intergalactic Summit

Let it go, Azdan.

If she wishes to wishes to rectify her peoples' perceived wrong-doing in fire, then it is those fires that she will be tested in.

Tasha, think not that I do not watch, even with bated breath, your plight. Your goals are commendable, but I cannot agree with the channels you are taking to reach them.

Your actions will brand you a terrorist. Perhaps your accomplishments will touch the hearts and souls of your people, but you shall always be a terrorist first.

So you disagree with the veracity of the impartial demographic study?

I disagree with the notion that the Ni-Kunni are treated as "fifth class citizens." The demographic study does not indicate they are incapable of climbing in social status.

Nor does it say they are incapable of launching themselves into orbit by eating a can of beans and lighting a match under their behinds, but we can only imagine how that would normally work out.

Though I'm sure one or two really talented fellows could possibly make it happen.

Your asininity does you no credit.

You all are forgetting that a "terrorist" by definition need inspire terror in others.

The thought of a bungling group of Ni-Kunni running around trying to plant bombs without blowing themselves up sounds more of an old comedy routine I saw on stage once than a fearsome organization.

But you know, good luck with all that. Remember you point the shooty-end at the other people.

I got the distinct impression that the aforementioned "bungling group of Ni-Kunni" was only in reference to the group of rabblerousers responsible for this thread. I can't figure out where or how you got the idea that she was referring to the entire Ni-Kunni population.

We, the Mishi Liberation army wish to issue this statement:

We call upon all Ni-Kunni to resist their Amarrian oppressors and help us end the occupation of our world. The task will be difficult, but worth it. We will, in all actions, seek to minimize the hardship of the Ni-Kunni people, both living on and off Mishi.

However. any Ni-Kunni actively collaborating with our occupiers and oppressors will be treated just as harshly as the Amarr.

A couple of news articles:

Terrorist Attack Leaves 30 dead, 8 wounded.
by A. Q'lenth
The provincial capital of Azdama was rocked by a explosion at around 1728 local time 07.31. The blast, centered on the MIO building sparked a ten minute gun battle that concluded with security forces driving off the attackers. Immediately following the attack a hereto unknown group, calling itself the Mishi Liberation Army, took credit.

The MIO spokesperson had this to say:
"This attack will not go unanswered. This Mishi Liberation Army will go the way of all the other heretical and terrorist groups that operate in the Empire. Even now we are deploying troops to help secure and stabilize the area."


That was followed by an article today.

MIO Troops Destroy Terror Cell in Azdama.
by A. Q'lenth
Azdama residential district of Aryat Sazeem was woken up early this morning, around 0300 local time, when MIO troops stormed a house that served at a headquarters of the terrorist group known as the Mishi Liberation Army. The Mishi Liberation Army had previously taken credit for a terrorist attack that destroyed the MIO headquarters in Azdama.

The assault began when armoured vehicles and VTOL assault ships entered the neighborhood and surrounded the house. Elite assault troops began to fast rope down to the top of the central building. However, not all went according to plan when a terrorist opened up on the assault ship with a military grade gatling pulse laser. The assault ships were forced away and ground forces were forced into a twenty minute gun battle that lit up the night sky. The deciding blow in the battle came when the APC crashed though the wall of the compound into the central building where the terrorist had holed up.

The MIO did not release friendly casualties as they are still in the process of notifying the families. However they say that seventeen terrorists were killed. The commander on scene, a Ni-Kunni issued this statement: "We called multiple times on them to surrender, yet each time they returned the call with gunfire. We appeal to all the Ni-Kunni people to stop this nonsense and return to their peaceful lives. The MIO also calls on members of the MLA to come forward and help end the bloodshed before it happens. We are promising leniency to any that do come forward."
