Sorry you're not ok with that. And yet more contemptuous disregard. This time from one with the blood of Colelie still on her hands. If Midular could speak to us one wonders what she would say. Most likely. "Where were all these people with I was thrown out of office?"But still, I find the Tribals new found love for her... touching. I suppose better late than never. You do not suffer from an overabundance of education, I see. Nor you my dear of fresh water and soap.

At least she was "beloved" once she got shot in the head and turned in to a political and media circus. Prior to that, your little band of halfwits wasn't exactly singing her praises, now, was it "shaman?"
You superficial imbeciles still haven't figured out what your "beloved chief's" life actually stood for. Big shock, that. |

It's the media bleating that is the item of interest here. The Senate's request was made privately, as per the article.
The only reason for it now to be public is because it was leaked - probably in the hopes of casting one side or the other in poor light and in increasing the political instability between the two factional allies.
So the only question worth asking is who stands to gain from such an outcome.

I pretty much fully agree with my comrade Anatole.
This is a delicate, deeply spiritual matter which must be approached with care. So far it seems like the Federation Senate understands this, if they're choosing not to pursue the matter. I am also a human, straggling between the present world... and our future. I am a regulator, a coordinator, one who is meant to guide the way. |

The request was made in good faith... And the denial was worded similarly, clearly with no insult intended, merely a statement of facts. Frankly, if the Matari wish to keep Midulars funeral from becoming more of a spectacle than threads like this make it into, that's their right, and their choice to make. As was said, it's a delicate affair, and should be handled as such.
I'm sure there will be plenty of debating, arguing, accusing, and more media sensationalism to come... So this, at least, should remain inviolate, as much as possible.
My condolences to the Sebiestor, and all Minmatar... Regardless of the success or failure of her tenure, from any point of view, I've always considered Midular someone to be admired. She did the one thing that so few do when faced with harsh realities. She tried to do something better than spill blood.
That's a legacy worth carrying on. |

Because unlike yourself they've handled themselves with a manner that shows respect, dignity and not behaving like a petulant child. Enjoy your gaming.

There's no such thing as a happy funeral, but there is such a thing as a beautiful one. I had hoped to see the thermal signature of the pyre from orbit, but of course in the event there wasn't one.
Still, it was an opportunity for reflection and, as I tend to do on such occasions, I meditated while in GeoSynchronos orbit above Mikramurka. For the Wayists here, I meditated on Mountain Wind. For non-Wayists, that means cultivating a mindset of silent observation, of keeping your counsel until it is valuable, and of speaking only when you have something worthy of being said.
I find that Mountain Wind is a useful meditation here in the Republic. I am, after all, a guest in the homelands of the Tribes and I prefer to hold my piece unless explicitly asked for my opinion. I would encourage others to think along similar lines. This is especially aimed at my own people: While I'm all for the Caldari exploiting any rift which may form between the Federation and the Republic, I'm not for assisting in forcing open that rift by shouting from the sidelines.
We're not involved, neither should we be. Opportunism is just good sense, but there's no need to break their tea set in order to invite them to drink with us. Let events unfold as they will, kirjuunen. If we are to ask that our own internal strifes be left squarely in our hands, the least we can do is give that courtesy in return.

So, has the funeral festivity happened yet? It's been a couple days, I'd suppose Shakor would start noticing the odor by now. There's a political joke somewhere in there, but I'll leave it to those of you more versed in the ways of satire than I am.

I'm sure mr. Syagrius doesn't need my white-knighting and that it might be a bit of a derailment, but given that the majority of Angel Cartel citizens are of Matari ethnicity... you know.. yes. Yes he does.
Also, ad hominem rhetoric? In my IGS? I'm shocked. Sincerely. - Leopold Caine, Domination Malakim ___________________________ Angels are never far... Stillwater Corporation recruitment open. |

As a political body, we are refused.. but as people, individuals, we are welcomed to show our respect.
If that isn't beautiful I don't know what is...
As Gallente, we are individuals first.. a Federation second. Hopefully this funeral reminds us as well as our government bodies of this ideal that is so very close to who we are.

I wasn't there, but if you read news accounts of the funeral, they mention "several representatives from other nations paying their respects".
Sounds like the only political body that was refused was the Senate. I wonder why that is. Bio and writing |

I think you should carefully re-read the preceding article again before stirring the **** further by making wild assumptions out of thin air by conflating two separate events, Kaika.
The Senatorial delegates were not barred from attending the funeral. Nor from attending the procession before it. They were denied a request for a place in the procession itself - a place that was not given to anyone else either.
I would not expect to see members of the Tribal Council in a funeral procession for Roden or Foiritan. I would not expect the Council to ask for such a thing.
Nor, honestly, would I expect such a request to be granted were it made. Morwen Lagann Director, Tyrathlion Interstellar |

Call me what you will, but for them to invite us as individuals and not as a "government trying to be overbearing" is a gesture of kindness that has a much deeper meaning in my honest opinion.
We are the only other civilization that promotes such an ideal as individualism. I hope we took the opportunity to show not only Shakor but the Minmatar people this; that we still hold at least this common ground with them in this season of tension between our two people.
I hope those Gallente that had the opportunity to attend overcame the all too common pitfall of arrogance our race tends to unintentionally adhere to. I hope they didn't take the rejection of our government attending this funeral as a sign of disrespect. |

The key word in the news piece here is "representatives". Say, for example, it read "several citizens from other nations paying their respects". It would be clear that they were there as individuals to pay their respects. The word "representative" implies a more official capacity - a delegate from a nation is a representative from that nation.
I'm probably being overly pedantic, but words do form a very specific map. Yet, as Chevaign pointed out, the map is not the territory.

The procession and the funeral were two entirely separate events.
The Senate was told not that they would not be allowed to attend either event, but that they would not be treated like celebrities or given any form of special treatment by allowing them to participate in the procession, which is what the request was asking for.
There is no 'map' here at all. Just you being excessively pedantic, as you accurately surmised.
I'm rather disappointed in you. Morwen Lagann Director, Tyrathlion Interstellar |

That much has been clear for some time.
In any case, as you've said, all that's here is me being overly pedantic. I'm sure you're right about all of this. Out of respect for Midular's memory, I'll leave this particular discussion alone from now on. Bio and writing |
