Intergalactic Summit

*PUBLIC BROADCAST FROM ALESIUS LERANCE, FORMER UNDERSECRETARY TO THE CALDARI INFORMATION BUREAU*

Citizens of the State. I know full well that the comm channels are inundated with broadcasts such as this, but please, be patient and hear me now. This is not intended to be a rallying cry for a counterattack, a plea for peace or revolutionary outrage. This is a Caldari Citizen excercising his right to speak and express displeasure at recent events to those above him in the Hierarchy.

On the 29th of the of the third month, 6 days from now, a formal and peaceful protest shall be held in New Caldari from 18:00 to 23:59. The object of this demonstration is to extract an explanation from either from the Caldari Navy, the Providence Directorate or the Chief Executive Panel as to how and why the Shiigeru was not sufficiently supported during the battle for the homeworld. Further to this, we will demand an explanation as to why additional reinforcements were not sent when the battle turned against us, or why our ships were not withdrawn. If this information is not available, the we will demand a formal inquiry into the battle so that the State still gets it's answers.

This will be achieved by congesting New Caldari, blocking station docking bays and making our demands frequent, loud and clear in local comm channel. I look forward to seeing fellow loyalists alongside me on that day. Our thoughts and prayers to the families of the lost, may the Winds watch over them.

*BROADCAST ENDS*

Capsuleers in general are a wildcard in any conflict nowadays. Its not secret we are vastly superior to baseliner manned spacecraft.

Why not protest in Jita? Congesting the trade hub and arguably the richest source of tax for both the navy and the mega corporations would be FAR more effective. Hit them in the wallet book. We are Caldari after all.

We NEED to be investigating Heth. This is all on his head, in my opinion, and those immediately under him.

Also, need I remind you we were grandstanding about committing genocide prior to the tragic loss of the Shiigeru?

I can understand your need for resolution, don't get me wrong. But the scale of an all-out war of annihilation is several orders of magnitude greater than the fallout from the limited engagements of the Militia Act. It would be more correct to say that without them, the war would've begun long ago.

You're really going to try and protest after what Heth did last time?

Actually, you should peacefully protest in spite of what happened last time. Show the tyrant that weapons and aggression cannot suppress the will of the people!

The demonstration will be going ahead as planned. I only hope that our request does not fall on deaf ears.

Join us, Brothers and Sisters. Join us at New Caldari, CEP Bureau.

For the Glory of the State!

Present at new Caldari with an Orca class industrial, in order to support the protestors with an enhanced communication & supply platform.


Additional comm: Odo Hakaalen was present & listened to our requests & demands and informed us that while he couldn't divulge much information, he would keep us informed of the results of the ongoing investigations.

As we begin to dig into the scarred history of our separation may I remind you all.



Indeed! I made a much more eloquent analysis of the battle my self, but both of these "citizens" are correct, Caldari Prime is a Gallente Liberated world, but it stands to reason that Caldari Prime is an essential part of The Caldari Identity. If the Caldari intend to enact an unconditional surrender of Gallente Control of Caldari Prime, whether you are fully aware, Operation Highlander was a horrific success, and a stinging reminder to the inadequacy of the Caldari. Both factions are now faced with a new challenge all together, the reinvestment of an all out Caldari Gallente war, for the simple principles of unity and identity, which the Gallente hold so dear. Unless the idea of an easy victory disheartens these mis-guided Gallente youth.

As capsuleers we are not necessarily faced with a choice of enacting genocide, Caldari culture has never been opposed to conducting business with the Gallente, and not all of these citizens need be forced to make a living for them selves they will do this of their own, for *grimace* "Freedom." Though in belief of this system which has persisted longer than the conflict itself. Have we stated that it is in the explicit interest of the Caldari, its political factions, and its corporations to have financial control of the Luminaire system and its resources for the political and historical solidarity of the Caldari and its culture; for the purposes of the relocation of ALL Federation Military Stations and the explicit cooperation of CONCORD in the sole military control of Luminaire, its moons and outposts including Luminaire VI. May I remind any Caldari and any "Gallente youth present." of Anvent Eturrer.

"Caldari Prime is the homeworld of the Caldari people, and is located in the Gallente system of Luminaire (which also contains the Gallente homeworld)

Until recently the planet was claimed by and occupied for almost two centuries by the Gallente Federation, following the Gallente-Caldari War. Following unprecedented, state wide cooperation under the leadership of Tibus Heth, a massive invasion force successfully penetrated Federation defenses and the planet is now once again claimed as a sovereign world of the Caldari State, a status which is enforced by the presence of a Caldari Navy Leviathan-class Titan and its support fleet, which remains in orbit."

"This site commemorates a monumental battle between the Gallente Federation and the Caldari State. A Leviathan-class Titan with the callsign Shiigeru had been the symbol of the State's chokehold of Caldari Prime, floating in orbit over the planet and carrying the implicit threat of mass destruction if the Federation dared approach.
When conflict on the planet boiled over, the Federation put into action a bold plan to liberate the planet from the Titan's clutches, codenamed Operation Highlander. It resulted in Shiigeru's destruction, albeit one that left the planet scarred and bruised, and in the renewed freedom of the citizens of Caldari Prime."

If you have not read the official transcription which resulted in the destruction of a CONCORD battleship you can read it here:

"Caellach Marellus :
"BREAKING NEWS – A Marshal-class battleship belonging to CONCORD was engaged and destroyed by the Caldari Navy fleet in orbit of Caldari Prime less than ten minutes ago.

General Odo Korachi, a senior commander with the Directive Enforcement Department, had been dispatched from Yulai to monitor the ongoing situation in Luminaire after the hostilities escalated to a full-scale military conflict this afternoon.

On arrival, his vessel was seen entering low orbit of Caldari Prime and deploying scanning equipment in an apparent attempt to assess the situation. The Caldari Navy responded with demands from Admiral Visera Yanala that the DED Officer vacate orbit of the planet immediately. After no response, the Caldari Navy repeated the demand and gave five minutes for the CONCORD vessel to withdraw, claiming that the DED was in violation of a Caldari Navy-enforced no-fly zone.

Reportedly General Korachi then refused to withdraw, explaining that he had been dispatched as a representative of the CONCORD Assembly to ensure that any conflict was occurring within the boundaries of the Yulai Convention. It is not known whether any further communication occurred between the two vessels, but moments later his vessel was engaged and destroyed by the Shiigeru and her support fleet.

The Caldari Navy action was met with immediate response by the Directive Enforcement Department, who have declared a state of emergency in Luminaire and announced that a full-scale traffic advisory and global suspect flagging of all pilots in the Luminaire system is imminent."

1) Citizens do not have that right.

2) Capsuleers are not part of the Hierarchy.
