Intergalactic Summit

To allow the other "the courtesy" of letting the opposite side know they are amassing an armada. Think of it like an embasy....

It should also be noted that the Federation did not seize assets, freeze accounts or arrest personnel of Caldari corporations in its jurisdiction - which, as a sovereign nation which was at the time under the threat of war by a State operating under an illegitimate Templis Dragonaur coup d'etat, it would have been perfectly entitled to do. In fact, it could be argued that the strategically sound thing to do would have been to forcibly seize every State-run station and turn everything inside of them towards the war effort. But we didn't.

It should also be noted that Federal Administration - at Ishukone's request - sat down with Ishukone representatives to clarify the legality of Ishukone's claim over Intaki's shipping and transport franchise and system development rights. Since the development rights were auctioned by an organisation that did not have authority to issue them, they had no legal standing whatsoever. The Federation had no obligation to respect them. It could quite easily have turfed Ishukone out of Intaki by claiming that the agreement had been made under duress and thus was illegitimate (regardless of whether or not that were true). But we didn't.

Federal Administration left an open offer to the other megacorporations to make similar clarifications, which was ignored - but of course, this came back to bite the megacorporations in the rear when the Federation reclaimed its systems and Heth summarily revoked the development rights. For a State that supposedly prides itself on making good strategic decisions, it's somewhat telling that Ishukone was the only megacorporation with enough business sense to clarify the legality of its investments.

Basically, I think what's really going on here is that some Caldari are sour that Ishukone are better at being Caldari than they are.

Commander, did you miss the point about many Caldari corporations, including Kaalakiota, having assets and conducting business in the Federation and the Republic? Or are you of the opinion that any Caldari organisation that trades abroad anywhere other than the Empire, Kingdom & Mandate is committing treason?

If this last is true then a good part of the State is guilty of it.

It should not be forgotten that despite the calls of locally elected representatives in the Senate, the ability to vote and be counted was denied to a large number of Federal citizens for quite some time.

It serves as a prime example of what happens when local opinion is overridden by decision making powers far away in Villore.

Security fears led to the undermining of the heart of democracy of which the Federation is so proud. It led to disillusionment from which some have yet to recover.

To hand-wave the disenfranchisement of politically informed and active citizens away so casually is damning.

I think both Mssrs Kinnison and Bataav make laudable points, but have also left some out. Yes, if the electorate was more engaged it would be much more difficult for elected representatives to ignore them. Yes, many were unjustly denied the right to vote despite the will of the population in Low Security regions in Federation space.

I think it is fair to say that apathy of voters and detachment of leaders are not the only evils that undermine democracy. The "security fears" mentioned by Bataav were hardly inconsequential. How does a free democracy conduct a fair election when its people are under the bootheel of an invading army? I think the Federation failed its citizens by not coming up with a better answer, but it wasn't a simple question.

Honest question, I conducted(won't say whether I still do or not) business with caldari associates, yet I'm an "enemy to the state," How's that work exactly? My business with them generally wass gathering supplies to combat other capsuleers who mind you shoot both the Federation and Caldari militia members equally as a nonentity. (Personally I try my best to not shoot either ACTUAL sides because it isn't my fight nor my concern) Any business I did directly with the Caldari was generally coolant and other similar materials production, thus nonmilitary based.

Don't you dare to speak of Caldari Officer like that! We already know you are a liar so your attempts are futile. You, heartless cruel gallentean propagandist, you are a shame to the whole humanity.

Look what you write else.

Oh, so denying facts and covering atrocities that are being committed currently daily and thousands of people being tortured is "civilized art" to you? Is that you call "conversation"?

You are disgusting creature.


Another one lie of a typical gallentean propagandist. Luckily, your status as a liar was already proven elsewhere.


I have dedicated a WHOLE conversation where you had your chance and you have failed. And I have described in detail what the problem was. This discussion doesn't belong in here. Only results of it.


98.5% And if your dirty mouth wants to dare to claim they weren't fair, I assure you, those who weren't executed were found to be innocent, they were mostly captives and passengers. So, before making any other claims on that matter and saying I would "release" enemies and was unfair, I tell you this. Don't you dare to come to discussion of these unless you will be able to bring SOLID proofs of their guilt. If you do, I give a word of Caldari Officer, I'll find them wherever they would be hiding and I will bring them back to justice. Otherwise, don't bother me about it ever again.

Rinai, apparently, at least one person is completely incapable. I name no names, but I could. But I won't.

But I could.

The Assembly welcomes those residents of the various Capsuleer Empires who still love the Federation homeland and wish to see it prosper. Indeed, since we exist as a lobby of and for Capsuleer interests it would hardly behoove us to exclude the large demographic that nullsec represents.

Like the rest of New Eden, we've been watching the Succession Trials with keen interest. Now that they have concluded, I'm sure many on the IGS will be discussing the wider ramifications of the ascension of the first Tash-Murkon to the Throne. As the Amarr transition into this new era, life in the Federation goes on, and billions of Gallente citizens begin to look for new entertainment and controversy elsewhere.

So far the Assembly is off to a good start. We've been conducting a spirited discussion on the subject of civil conflict on the Jin-Mei homeworld. A full report on the issue will be prepared and publicized once the matter has been fully examined. We continue to welcome new Delegates, as we hope to input from as many capsuleers and communities as possible.

We already have representatives from many diverse backgrounds, but we always want more flavor in the melting pot. If you are interested in joining the discussion, please contact me via evemail.
