Honestly, I'm impressed at that man's self-defense skills. If he ever emerges from SDII custody, there may be a place for him with Hakatain Dynasty Security.

I heard a bunch of Minmatar invaded Colelie in self-defence. Maybe you could hire them too.

And thus it begins...

I fear Lady Tyrathlion is correct and we are going to see an escalation of these disturbances. Given the recent comments and other activities the last week or so, it would be naive to assume that there is going to be a calm and measured reaction from those involved.

With the elections coming soon, the timing of all these events leaves me wondering...I'm not one to pander to conspiracy theories, but everything seems a little too coincidental.

Though, to be honest, with a former arms-dealer running the Federation with the support of someone like Blacque and his Eagles, it makes a certain amount of sense...generate conflict for profit and power.

I hope that the citizens of the Federation don't get swept up in the heat of the moment and make a terrible mistake.

Now there's a thought. Since we were nice enough to hand Broteau over to Republic justice, they can surely reciprocate by handing over members of a known terrorist organisation.

Ms. Saissore, terrible mistakes are the order of the day, where the Republic and Federation are concerned.

I am very curious as to why an incident of self-defense warranted the intervention of the SDII. We don't even know if the Matar in question was a Federation citizen or an emigre from the Republic, however, so it could be warranted if they suspect he was an agent of the Republic.

Hopefully he'll be released soon, and without untoward treatment by the Black Eagles. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that the Black Eagles are known for their restraint. As they may say, "Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice."

Nice enough to turn him over? Roll

Just where do you get the idea that the Republic has any of these people in custody? There's been no such announcement.

Also, remember that after the attacks the group was strongly denounced by the Republic and the head of the RSS stated that, “The Federation has our full support in apprehending these terrorists”.

The Republic's been trying to capture the Bloody Hands leaders for years. There's no support for them in the government or among the majority of the population. We see these people for the criminals that they are and want them brought to justice.

With that bit of reason out of the way, the usual suspects may now return to their normally scheduled Matari bashing.

When the world is running down, you make the best of what's still around.

You're right, they are. Unironically.

Times of strife and discomfort teach us more than times of peace and harmony. We're learning a lot about each other and ourselves these days, and that kind of learning is a path to the future.

It's a stony, bramble-grown path that's hard to walk, but that very difficulty makes traversing it all the more of an accomplishment.

Cruising down the eight-lane highway you're on is less of an achievement, and provides no opportunities for growth and discovery.

Given their unapologetic act of war, I wouldn't expect the Republic to be very magnanimous with respects to this subject.

While I do not condone the use of violence towards Minmatar civilians it must be understood that several actions undertaken by the Republic recently has led to a large amount of distrust between our two races. Is it surprising then that our citizens choose to take action on their own accord? It is possible that such events as this would not occur if the Republic did more to earn our trust rather than lose it.

Frankly I am amazed that the security forces didn't see this coming and move to prevent it.

For the first time since I started the conversation, he looks me dead in the eye. In his gaze are steel jackhammers, quiet vengeance, a hundred thousand orbital bombs frozen in still life.

My fear is that they did, or may have at least some foreknowledge, and simply either chose not to or were told not to. Of course, that could be reading way too much between the lines.
