Intergalactic Summit

Good they finally officially announced it.

*sigh*
So, this won't bring Federaion downfall... Pity.

Okay, guys, time to grab the guns and make federation downfall ourselves!

The new quadruple lock on voting rights is certainly something that I, as an Intaki, thoroughly approve of. It'll be interesting to see how the inclusion of the previously disenfranchised districts affects the outcome of the election this time around.

I make no secret of my distaste for Roden - I'm not happy that a man who stands to profit so much from the continuation of a war should be a key decisionmaker in whether or not it continues. Perhaps, while we're at it, we can rid ourselves of that troublesome afront to our nation's values that Blaque runs.

I know a hell of a lot of Gallente citizens pay for read access to the IGS - so if you're reading this, baseliners, vote someone other than Roden. Anyone other than Roden.

I voice my appreciation to the Senate for issuing the request, albeit with a promptness wanting for the requisite urgency. The FEC has done them one better, I suspect, in at least providing a mechanism for the Federation's electoral processes, in abeyance since Roden's purchased candidacy, to return to Constitutionality.

Now the task turns to cementing the motivated but disenfranchised citizenry in the push for meaningful self-governance, thereby truly testing the merit of this reform. We have ten weeks.

Foiritan?.. The president, under whom Noir rammed our station, under whom gallentes were racially attacked Caldari citizens on Caldari Prime, under whom gallente police was beating Caldari protesters, under whom hidden Caldari POWs prisons were found in Black Rise, where they were tortured, and this is the presiden, who started the war to take our Black Rise. Must be detained, sentenced and executed.

Roden?.. The president, under whom the most atrocious war crime against humanity was committed, the so called "operation Highlander", that killed millions and scarred our planet for thousands of years. Must be detained, sentenced and executed.

Blaque?.. I have no idea who is this guy, but he sounds gallentean and probably gallentean politician of high rank. I have no idea what he did, so he must be detained and investigated thoroughly. And maybe executed as well.

All that reading.... By the stars Amarr religion is dull.... and their ships are to shiny.

I advocate the candidacy of any president who would severely curtail the activities of the Black Eagles, and the FIO.

I heartily endorse this gentleman's statement. Wrap your lobes around THAT concept.

That's exactly why all recruits are given the RMS Thermos and a sack of ground beans every morning. Triple if officer.

The details of the Amarr religion is complicated and contradicts itself every so often. All we are told to remember is 'Amarr treats all their actions as glorifying God and the Emperor/Empress is the representative of God' and that bit about 'True Amarr'. We are also highly advised to use this information to 'troll' the coms if we suspect that our communications are compromised. Sometimes the more zealous Amarrian Navy Captain will break ranks and get himself and his crew killed because we insinuated that so-and-so in their side must be a half-blood or what they are doing sort of smears their God's name.

Or at least that's what used to happen.

Not so effective these days especially after Jamyl took the throne and the Imperial Navy becomes considerably less hot-headed. Can still be used against infantry though.

And I admit, reading up on their tactics is quite tedious. You read one you read it all. The details vary slightly. Instead we tend to be less bored whenever we discuss exceptional cases, like when they start using Arbitrators or when we are facing a pack of Slicers and Crusaders over a pack of Punishers. The real danger most of the time is that when they field a fleet, they field a fleet consisting of very large numbers. Very much like bringing a sledge to a knife fight. That's pretty damn difficult to counter at the best of times. The result is, well...the study of our tactics against theirs is alot more interesting due to variety.

I dont think it will matter who wins the election, we will see a continuation of Federation imperialism, increase in the budgets spent on the miltitary, Federation intelligence service , especially the SDII , more funding for their foreign covert bases , involved in torture , kidnapping, blackmail, death squads, continuation of their covert funding for terrorist organisations.

Federation imperiallism and the militiary industrial complex shall continue on as before.
