Intergalactic Summit

And yet more contemptuous disregard.

This time from one with the blood of Colelie still on her hands.

If Midular could speak to us one wonders what she would say.

Most likely. "Where were all these people with I was thrown out of office?"

But still, I find the Tribals new found love for her... touching.

I suppose better late than never.

It's a funeral for a well-known political leader. Like it or not, it's already a political and media circus. The Federation knows this, the Republic knows this. That's what makes it an effective snub.

You do not suffer from an overabundance of education, I see.

Let us also remember Gerne Broteau today. He was brutaly murdered by the Republic justice system. Let us remember and show our respect to him with a minutes silence also. I will pay mine, by lighting a candle when i return home later on tonight.

I am no lover of the heathens. Criminal race who have no use or worth, apart from being slaves and used as workforce.

Syagrius, Considering your current affiliation and support of an Angel Cartel loyalist group, let me make this one thing abundantly clear :

You have no place commenting on Matari affairs.

---

Seven Tribes.
One Matari People.

Nor you my dear of fresh water and soap.

But then who am I to judge cultural proclivities.

I am a Cartel employee, loyalist not so much. A small distinction but still.

When however the Tribal Council through arrogance, stupidity or both insulted the collective peoples of the Federation through their Senate, it becomes a bit more that a "Matari matter."

It's the media bleating that is the item of interest here. The Senate's request was made privately, as per the article.

The only reason for it now to be public is because it was leaked - probably in the hopes of casting one side or the other in poor light and in increasing the political instability between the two factional allies.

So the only question worth asking is who stands to gain from such an outcome.

The request was made in good faith... And the denial was worded similarly, clearly with no insult intended, merely a statement of facts. Frankly, if the Matari wish to keep Midulars funeral from becoming more of a spectacle than threads like this make it into, that's their right, and their choice to make. As was said, it's a delicate affair, and should be handled as such.

I'm sure there will be plenty of debating, arguing, accusing, and more media sensationalism to come... So this, at least, should remain inviolate, as much as possible.

My condolences to the Sebiestor, and all Minmatar... Regardless of the success or failure of her tenure, from any point of view, I've always considered Midular someone to be admired. She did the one thing that so few do when faced with harsh realities. She tried to do something better than spill blood.

That's a legacy worth carrying on.

Because unlike yourself they've handled themselves with a manner that shows respect, dignity and not behaving like a petulant child.
