Originally by: Stitcher the reason why the Intaki homeworld never got bombed from orbit while the Caldari one did.
The reason Guri, is because the Intaki saw what happened to the Caldari, who at that time were in a much better position to succeed and still barely avoided extinction, and so they got back in line and did as they were told.
I also noticed that you seem to be under the impression that the Caldari willingly founded a Federation with the Gallente. Our ancestors were about as willing ôCo-foundersö of the Federation as the Ni-kunni were of the Amarrian Empire. As weÆd barely figured out the steam engine when the first Gallente Space ships landed we didnÆt have much choice when they said they were creating an Empire and weÆd be in it. At that time they had complete control over all known space and were using their post industrial age economy and technology to completely dominate our pre-industrial revolution society and culture. They attempted to remold the Caldari into a people more appropriately conformed to their desires - to eradicate our culture and replace it with their own.
Do not kid yourself, we were a conquered people. The only difference between the Gallente Imperialist and the Amarrians is that instead of coercion gun point they offered advanced technologies to local leaders that chose to become their puppets and none to those resisted û they offered the corporate system and advanced economic techniques to merchant guilds that spread their cultural imperialism for them and smiled as those that wouldnÆt collaborate withered and died.
Only there were those Caldari who were clever enough to say æweÆll take your ægiftsÆ and weÆll keep smiling and jumping when you twitch your finger right up until we are finally strong enough to look you in the eye and say No. Thank the Maker for them! Hnolai ki tuul, ti sei oni a tiu!

Originally by: Stitcher It's Haan, Grayson. If you have a problem with that, feel free to take it up with the Ishukone Citizen's Representation Department. Cite reference #PP012-Ha73914.
I'm sure your ancestors are very proud of that piece of paper Guri. ============================================

Originally by: Lief Siddhe The Federation has it's drawbacks. I still prefer it to a corporation-based government focused on profit.
It's grand vision you have brother, and one worth fighting for - but do you really believe that Quafe has any less control over law makers and officials within it's territories than Lai Dai? ============================================

Originally by: Downcycle No other race seems to understand the vision and clarity that comes with following the path, and understanding Ida.
The idea that the way belongs only to the Intaki contradicts what I've been taught. ============================================

Originally by: Lief Siddhe Edited by: Lief Siddhe on 09/04/2009 00:18:03 The way doesn't belong only to those who are Intaki by birth, but it comes natural to those of our bloodline. It is a part of us as faith is to the Amarr, only we don't convert it to organized religion. We seek inward, while they seek outwards for enlightenment.
I don't believe in the idea that it comes more naturally to the Intaki than other bloodlines. I believe there are billions who follow it even if they call it something else - the core essence of Ida can be found in the core essence of many ideologies in the cluster. ============================================

Originally by: Downcycle As for our Caldari friend that seems to feel left out, if you have discovered and truely understand Ida, than you understand the futility of occupying Intaki space.
I don't recall ever hearing you speak about an independent Intaki, the State has occupied Intaki prime and now you and others are openly and vehemently supporting it were before there was silence. The chances of a bill to raise Intaki prime to highsec status passing through the senate is now much higher than before the occupation. The showing of Caldari strength in capturing Intaki prime is a reminder to the Federal government that upgrading this proxy war to a full fledged galactic war would be devastating to both sides and does so with minimal casualties. Perhaps you should consider all the angles. ============================================

I'm aware of your movement friend, but you have to admit it hasn't been in the limelight for awhile and the ILF hasn't made a press release for some time nor have you had this much support among the capsuleer community in many months. ============================================

Originally by: Downcycle Intaki pilots left with you and fought by the Caldari against the Federation, only to be run off due to paranoia.
We were not 'run off', we are still living in the State and quite comfortably - even under the provist regime. Despite what they may teach you at the University of Caille, the Waschi Uprising is symbol of acceptance of our ancestors by the Civire and Deteis as Caldari. ============================================

Those that attacked the Intaki were a very small group of extremist, a minority, and they were dealt with by the majority. Most of the Intaki were too old, to young or too settled in to go running off with for adventure and glory with a mercenary unit. The rest remained on Kamokor IV. ============================================

Originally by: Downcycle
the Intaki are not your enemy.
Since there is as much Intaki blood in my veins as Civre, I'd say so. ============================================
