Intergalactic Summit

My compliments to Louvaki-haan and Mr. Raithe. You represent the best in us.

I do indeed, I merely wish for the same mistakes to not be repeated yet again.



Nor would I, and I appreciate your condolences. My heart goes out to those suffering injustices on Home. It's one of the reasons I sought to establish this Corporation; to attempt to ease that burden for both Gallente and Caldari.



Aye, it was admitably a an emotional response born of my own frustration. I should steady my mouth and realize that the vocal minority are usually great than the silent majority...however..things are set in motion that I cannot ignore. Where my faith was once a unerodable bolder for a peaceful solution it is now represented by a nugget.



It is most understandable, and I have fallen into the same trap various times before.



Undeserved praise Scherezad-haani, but greatly honored by your words.

I do.

"What my CEO or co-workers do in their spare time and what views they express is none of my concern."



Until you manage to bring anything more than narrow-minded hatred to any debate, you can feel free to be ignored like the uncivilized simpleton you behave like.



The childish taunting of Angel-sympathizers are getting old Halate. Feel free to expect serious replies when you can bring yourself to contribute to a conversation in a civilized manner.



Field Agent Gaterau.

You may wish to learn some professionalism before you speak up again, personal attacks are not becoming of someone who are second-in-command for an organization responsible for the security of trillions, especially not if you can't even bring about counter-arguments to match my claims.

I have made my report based on eye-witness accounts - after all it's not like you will share much with us, is there? How did the interrogation of the lucky 17 survivors of the SnipeHunt Massacre go? Shame you could not interrogate the remaining 261 possible survivors, or press charges against anyone of them.

But then again, that's not what you wanted, was it?

Remember Gaterau, when this war is over, your organization will be dissolved and if there are suspicions of miss-use of power, you will be investigated and if guilty, punished.

When this war is over, I will still have a job to go to. You on the other hand, may very well end up Field Agent of your own ten-by-ten cell for the rest of your life.



Your opinion has been noted. As for the rest of your posts, if you wish to be taken a bit more seriously (by me at the least) I'd ask that your stabs at the Federation's existence be refined more, it could help if you bring some more explanation for your views to the table as opposed to the blind, predictable venom we keep getting from the usual suspects.

As an example, I don't particularly care for the State - you float your own boat and all that - but if pressed on any claims of negativity and criticism regarding the State that I make I can back up each and every one with at least some explanation for my views.

I would appreciate it if anyone who feels like heaping scorn on my nation at the least do the same.

Well this is very interesting if worrying. It would appear I owe Mr Biko an apology.
Now let us all take a nice long hard look at ourselves in the mirror and ask ourselves if we are ready for the stern task ahead. Are we ready for the firestorm that total war will bring down upon our heads?
Are our hearts hardened and our loins girded for what we must do to achieve victory?
Are our hands cold and our eyes blinkered to the reality of what we will end up doing to ourselves if we all continue to chest beat and howl like primates?
I pray temperance, or failing that, I pray you at least try and keep the collateral damage down.

My historical account was accurate though not as detailed as it should have been. You are correct in that one could assume the entire Federation supported it and it was not my intention to make such a suggestion.



Now this is where I must correct you, Msr. "Bloodbird." An apologist offers apologies, which are explanations and nothing more. The word has a positive and negative meaning. The negative meaning is to admit responsibility for and offer an expression of regret or guilt at a wrong, failing or other similar nature. The positive meaning is to offer an excuse, justification or explanation toward a specific event or belief, such as in regards to military or religious doctrine.

When I state that I am a Federal apologist, it is my declaration that my viewpoints and statements will be offered from a Federal-sympathetic position. Which is entirely evident through my dealings and will remain so for the future.

I appreciate your warnings and advice.

It's more than a bit silly that you'd call someone an uncivilised simpleton who is consumed by narrow-minded hate in an attempt to take the high ground, don't you think? My comment is on the nature of the self-mutilating Federal policies that you insist on defending.

Considering how few posts I've made to the IGS, I'm surprised that I am already considered to have any sort of history of commentary at all.

More to the point, you're advocating war against my people and asserting your moral superiority over us. So how could you possibly be surprised, much less complaining that we take issue with it? The mind boggles.

A most interesting and disturbing account of recent events. I had received vague information myself from another capsuleer about an upcoming SnipeHunt operation, but was detained outside my pod when it took place. In a way I feel fortunate not to have been faced with the thorny moral dilema you were forced to confront.

Clearly, the SDII continues to be necessary. Our enemies make it plain that we can not show weakness in the face of their aggression. Repeatedly they have cast aside opportunities to negotiate, opportunities that yet remain open to them, and instead insist on what amounts to outright submission. Even when it is demonstrated that Gallente Federation has the strength to resist their aggression and more, they take our restraint to wage total war as evidence that we can be intimidated.

However, this abuse of the universal rights of our citizens by the forces meant to protect us can not continue. There must be more robust oversight of the Black Eagles to insure that situations like this SnipeHunt fiasco are not repeated. As misguided as their actions may have been, I believe that they were motivated by love for our Federation. They should not have been shot down like dogs in the street.
