Whilst I'm relatively sure that at this stage CVA would likely let Sylph die at u'k hand in a full frontal assault, we find it far more amusing to slice them to ribbons one slither of alliance at a time. For a good few weeks now there has been more isk made by u'k ratting in sylph space than by sylph themselves.
I think that if CVA wants to remove Sylph they'll have to stop waiting for u'k to do their dirty work so they can take the space back and just get on with their land grab and accept the fact that people will see them as the aggressors (and rightly so!)
Sylph alliance, you are clearly not going to be saved by CVA and the fact that you can't defend ANY of your space even with support is embarassing. I can count on one hand the number of pilots withing Sylph that are willing to even try to defend your own space. Even when a provi bloc gang makes the effort to come and defend your space, you sit idly by, hoping others will do the fighting for you.
You'd do better looking to sell your space on the quiet to some one at this stage. At least then you'd get something out of it.

Sylph's current morale is certainly affected by U'K constantly harassing them. I'm fairly certain we're quite capable of destroying their morale and will to keep going just fine without hitting their tower with dreads in an obvious way that the rest of the bloc could actually help them.
We kill Sylph towers just fine when we feel inclined. It is pretty hard to claim that sylph are actually making any money from the huge amount of infrastructure they currently have down as they have very little moon mining left intact and are often barely able to get into their own space let alone rat or mine it for the worth.
The fact that Sylph are now more active in empire is telling of the direction this 0.0 entity is going.
Owning space does not automatically mean profit. :)

You're making less sense than usual, Graelyn.
No, he's making perfect sense.
What use is it to utterly destroy an enemy, if you then allow the vacuum that they leave behind to be filled by another enemy?
Sylph's downfall at this stage is attributable to many factors; lack of leadership, lack of motivation by allies to defend them, the fact they're first up coming from our area of catch so they take the brunt of our attacks, and the lack of general callibre left in sylph pilots to name just a few.
I'm fairly certain this new entity would already need to be experienced at holding space to survive long in such a harsh climate which leads me to believe that the only entity that would actually take it is CVA. Since to do so they would have to either buy or evict Sylph from their space, a long standing ally whom they stand by.... i'm quite entertained to sit here and watch whilst shooting any viable targets possible.
Then there's the opportunities for theft. Redeployment of towers done right takes so much time and people do love to just try to put them up with a handful of guys and hope no one is watching. I believe our maximum stolen tower in any given week is around 10 large...
What's the use in utterly destroying an enemy entity? just that. It is destroyed. Then we move onto the next piece.

Just a little curious folks (no not bi-curious just normal curious)
Who is running Sylph right now? Is anyone I mean who is actually supposed to be in charge since I heard it is no longer Kueen1?
I actually sent a message to a diplomat on just that question last week. Still no answer... My disenfranchised friends within sylph with a perchant for divulging info haven't really got clue either. It seems to be the case that all the corps are just fending for themselves.
I assume that CVA have a better idea on who is leading but I doubt they're in the mood to tell me :)
