Intergalactic Summit

Clearly. As you can see, they have invested quite a bit into their cinder and are now recovering like one would from any fire. The fact they have seen to it in a one directional mindset speaks volumes about how they have survived on it's hostile surface through the ages.

You must not have met many Caldari.

You answered your own question, darling! I could watch Diana and Lyka all day. It would be worth becoming competent in a space thingie to be in a fleet with the two of them tumbling around the galaxy from one proffered genocide to the next... if not for the extraordinary effort that would be required for me to acquire such competence.

And you know, with respect to Diana's suggestion and Lyka's response, lighting Caldari Prime on fire would at least melt *some* of the ice. I kid, Schere sweetie, I kid.

This. Rikaato.

Odd that there is no mention of materials going back to the Caldari Navy whence they originated. Again, Ishukone has proven through action their contradiction in philosophy and ideology towards the betterment of the State.

I never felt comfortable seeing how close Ishukone snuggled up to the Federation, but after the many years of this protracted Great War, I feel almost sick to my guts each time I witness their candor and collaboration with our enemy. Diplomacy is understandable but not when it works in the favor of the opposition.

Providence Guard no longer stands by Heth's madness-warped ideologies, however, we still stand apart from Ishukone.

You are subhuman.

Kim has the benefit that her idiocy is fun to read and laugh at. Nobody likes her, but the IGS wouldn't be quite the same without her. You on the other hand just spew **** out of your mouth and try to **** off as many people as possible. If that is your goal, I can confirm you have succeeded.

To put this in lay terms, it would cost far more to ship the salvage, piece by piece, into orbit, than it would to reuse it on Home, where it's actually needed. It's a Titan, which means it's a bit more involved than excavating a small city after a nuclear and chemical holocaust. The infrastructure of the planet needs to be repaired, not more assault frigates built to go shoot at militia in the war zone when there are still plenty being built in the meantime. The Navy's assembly lines have likely long since negated the loss, whose longest lasting ramifications are on the surface itself from the Shigeru's impact and associated fallout.

On a side note, I'm curious as to when diplomacy turns to collaboration (no, really, this line needs to be less nebulous to be taken seriously these days. It's everyone's favorite accusation anymore, so I'm looking for some actual line of reason in some cases). And I assume you're referring to the militia conflict in this "Great War" reference?

As they always have, however majority of those systems and weapons are far away from the front lines on their fleets guarding Ishukone territory and property. Home Guard have provided supplementary forces to bolster Caldari Navy forces along border systems in the war zone.

Probably the biggest contribution Ishukone has made is via us, the capsuleers, whom use their technology frequently in the war between militias.

I'm not talking about tech or materials, though, but about actual manpower - which they've been extremely reluctant to provide from the very beginning. Just the fact that Heth is gone is the only reason they've loosened up recently.

Regardless, must I remind everyone that Ishukone was the first to prance up to the Federation and offer peace and compromise so fresh after their devastating assault on the Shiigeru battle group leading to the CNS Shiigeru's destruction and tragic crash planetside. Their actions speak volumes.

Damn liberals.

What would you propose in turn? Not that I disagree, since fact is fact, all emotion aside, but what do you suggest should have taken place that could realistically achieve the same or better?

When does salvage ever go from whence it came from? Ishukone is under no obligation to return the materials to the Navy any more than anyone else salvaging any other ship is obligated to return them to the original owner. Ishukone is still serving Caldari interests by using the materials to rebuild NoH's headquarters, and has been pointed out above, it's more effective to try and utilize the materials in situ rather than trying to haul them up a grav well

As for the war I fail to see why furthering Heth's agenda makes anyone a bad group, and when your home planet is on FIRE the peace process helps the Caldari people more than throwing more meat at the grinder. Where were the patriots with aid supplies when people were dying on the ground?

You and I must be talking to different Caldari, because most of the ones I talk to, regardless of what they think of the Gallente or if they believe we should be at war with the Federation (and yes there are still quite a fair amount who believe the federation is our enemy and support the conflict with them), do not propose complete genocide like you do in many of your posts.
