Intergalactic Summit

In other places, I have said that the need to act may arise. Let me to elaborate:

The Provists have demonstrated time and again that they have little care for the rule of law. In their mind, the possession of power allows its free exercise; it may be capricious, it may fly in the face of custom and law, but it may be exercised freely. Consider their seizure of some executives who sparked a mass resignation, consider their executive dismissal of a slander suit against Pyre Falcon, and how odds are that these 'investigations' being executed by the Provists are likely to be shams.

If Heth moves against Reppola, it will serve to me as validation of the Executor's overreach. He would punish the one man working on behalf of the Caldari on Caldari Prime, the one man trying to do some good in this whole forsaken mess.

To be honest, I don't know how one pilot can undermine the Provists to restore the rule of law. I'd like to find out, though.

That is not the impression of affairs various correspondence with individuals has given me, Scherezad.

I applaud State Executor Tibus Heth's decision to investigate the conduct of Admiral Visera Yanala and of wing commander Sami Okuuda of the Caldari Navy’s 37th ‘Octopus’ Squadron.

I was there in orbit as the fighting raged and even though I am not a military commander of any ability I could see that the command of the Caldari Navy was derelict in its duty to its pilots.

There were many moments in the engagement that the Caldari Navy could have beaten the Federation Navy but, for whatever reasons, Admiral Visera Yanala did -not- order these moments to be exploited.

This is the correct decision by State Executor Tibus Heth. He needs to purge the Caldari Navy of its incompetent commanders who are hiding behind unearned decorations and false tales of bravery. How was the State Executor to know of Admiral Visera's incompetency when it comes to actual fleet engagements? He was blinded, as all were in the Caladari State, by the on-going lies, deceptions, and exaggerations of the Caldari Navy.

This seems to be a systemic and fatal situation that State Executor Tibus Heth must deal with. It is now clear that the Caldari Navy makes up its accolades and promotes not based on merit but based on corruption.

If my voice were to be heard I would suggest that he takes full control of the Caldari Navy upon himself and purges the highest "officers" in the Navy to cleanse it of all those who should never have made it to command positions.

If the Caldari State is to survive these coming days and protect Caldari Prime in support of the troops on the ground drastic measures must be taken in support of the State.

Glory to the Caldari State and to the embodiment of its greatness: State Executor Tibus Heth.

*shrugs* Eh this is to be expected. Angry defiant speeches about the loss and will do an investigation into why it happened. I am not familiar with Caldari culture at all, but sounds pretty typical to me. The media always talking about how one looks. Of course he looks ill; the Caldari just suffered a major defeat. Great stress can make anyone look ill.

If the Caldari people respond well to the speech, then it was a good one.

When one presses a stone into the sand, the impression is not at all the same thing as the stone.

The instructive value of metaphors and proverbs only stretches so far.

If one wants to know where the rot within the Navy came from, one only needs to look to the CPD. The politicization of the military is a threat not only to our readiness, but to the soul of the Navy itself. It is time to burn out the infected growth and leave only those who remember the true mission of the Navy. An end to the reign of Hethist sycophants and undisciplined thugs, and renewed professionalism and attention to the chain of command, which most decidedly does not end with the false office of the "Executor."

The Chief Executive Panel's time is running out. They must act now, before Heth leaves the body of the State so riddled with gangrene that it cannot survive.

I find it ironic that a state giving so much power to corporations, and the corporations having the ability to negotiate with anybody they want, would attempt to have "one man" be the head honcho.

Now look at the results.


The whole thing is dumb. And frankly, the citizens of Caldari never got the chance to realize that their destiny was in their hands all along. They lost that, on their own, and suffered under it, and put up with Gallente-owned corporations on their own.

And the racism of Heth was the only thing to uplift them? Their identity based on hate and waging war?

When has that ever worked? Even the Amarr and Minmatar are careful not to let base ideals get the best of them, even if they have the elements for it.


I hope to see an end to this pointless war.

Treason? The empires are working as intended.

Glad as I am Mr Marellus, mindsets like this may be truly lost to the light. And lead to actions that would leave more mothers, wife's and children without loved ones for unnecessary violence with no accomplishment or gain.

I am just an outsider but I think the Caldari must accept that they have been resoundingly defeated on the field of combat and that the only way now to regain any access to there spiritual and ancestral homeworld is to follow in the footstep of Reppola.

Diana Kim says it is the Caldari way to take what it wants with force, the Amarr once thought this true many years ago, and we are still reeling from the aftermath of that ideology which eventually brought near ruin to us as a society. That way is not the way of the Caldari nor one I would wish for them to go down.

'To serve the people before you serve yourself' I feel this phrase sums up what many Caldari feel about themselves. Reppola has put the needs of the Caldari on Caldari Prime before what ever political ramifications towards himself he will imbue from Heth, while Heth only seeks to maintain his own power even if it means betraying those who fought bravely to the end in defense of the State despite the knowledge they would likely lose.

I ask, which of the two above most sums up that phrase. Because I wouldn't pick Heth.

Actually it once created an entire nation.
