[1] - Quote
Following the recent leaks from the missing Operation Highlander after-action report, which logged more than three hundred Senate-authorized breaches of Caldari space, Ishukone's Executive Staff requested assistance with an investigation to determine if these border crossings were continuing and if so, were they a significant threat to the Ishukone Corporation and/or their Intaki investments.
In response, Ishukone assigned this task to their subsidiary Capsuleer alliance, the Ishuk-Raata Enforcement Directive < (I-RED). It was at this time I-RED Executor, John Revenent, tasked the Nova Corps Marines [.NCM.] to deploy to the planets of the Caldari Border Zone.
After several weeks of investigation, the following were determined to be irrefutably true:
1) Despite its statements, the Federation not only continues, but is increasing its invasions of Caldari and Intaki worlds along the border, threatening Ishukone assets both directly, and indirectly.
2) All Federal soldiers and fleets involved in the original breaches have been replaced with clone mercenaries and capsuleers respectively.
As a result, I-RED has determined these movements to be a detriment to the interests of Ishukone and the Intaki Agreement. Thenceforth, by encouragement of Ishukone Corporation, the Ishukone-Raata Enforcement Directive is to coordinate with the newly established 'Kirjuun Heiian' organization both on soil and in space with full authorization to do whatever is necessary to remove these invasive Federation elements from Ishukone's interests and permanently secure any and all Ishukone assets in the area |

Do you happen to have proof of this for the public to accompany your declaration? I'm not saying you're wrong or right, I just wanted to see what was uncovered in the investigation.

Good luck, however I believe the incursions outlined in the Highlander document were illegal only insofar as they were a breach of interstellar treaty as specified by CEWPA through border violations by non-militia assets. The mutual violation of territorial borders within the CEWPA zones conducted by the State Protectorate, State Peacekeepers, Federal Defence Union, and Federal Marines by capsuleers and clone troopers respectively appears to be within the boundaries of interstellar law as determined by CONCORD and its signatories, one might say. |

I might be missing an important part here, but in what pragmatic sense is this in any way different from the already ongoing capsuleer/proxy war in the area?

You may be right, if not this proxy war that is waged between both entities someone would consider this as a diplomatic incident. |

Cute statement, at any rate. It's as if Ishukone isn't spying on not only Intaki but the wider Federation as well (which it most certainly is).

How quaint. Please do not pretend the Federation is so upstanding and benevolent...especially with FDU members proudly and publicly boasting of mass executions of Mordu's Legionnaires.
I do not quite fully understand the scope of Ishukone's involvement, but from what I have learned, of all the parties involved, they appear to be the only ones who are speaking with and listening to the Intaki.
Your Federation has fallen far from its stated purpose of being a free and equal partnership between its members and the system is repeating history yet again. Instead of learning from the mistakes made when the Caldari wished to depart, your Federation is making the same mistakes with handling the Intaki.
I once saw the Federation as a shining jewel, but it is fractured and no longer shines with the soul of the principals that brought it into being. Now you have a war profiteer as president and a black ops corporation given free reign to terrorize the very people who came to the Federation for the hope of a new start at a better life. But I guess as long as the masses are kept blissfully ignorant of the truth, nothing will change...or so those at the top hope.
Change is coming and I foresee darker times ahead for the Federation as a whole.
Then again, I am but a simple artist. |

Yammer on with ideological propaganda all you want, I'm talking about legal actualities. By all laws, the Intaki solar system is part of the Federation. Therefore, the Federation cannot invade itself. It is entirely your prerogative to identify a schism between the Intaki solar system and the wider Federation on sentimental grounds, but that doesn't change the legal reality.
From this angle, I-RED can be accused of sensationalist talk by deliberately ignoring not only Federation law but Intaki law as well, for the latter openly acknowledges its part of the former. |

Ishukone, in an agreement with the Intaki people, tasked I-RED with defending Intaki assets and maintaining safe trade routes between the Intaki solar system and Caldari space ensuring that money could flow both ways without fear of pirates. It was determined by my cousin Nemo Nauticlone, the CEO of the Nova Corps Marines, that there were Intaki holdings, assets, and investments that were either damaged or destroyed due to the chaos of combat and to his knowledge was not damaged or destroy intentionally. Therefore we moved in to secure those sites to ensure that no further harm would come to them, accidental or otherwise. We are not spying on the Intaki, merely ensuring that we do right by them as they help to fund both our organization and Ishukone as a whole.
As far as these breaches being legal or illegal is a discussion for minds more intelligent and wise than my own. All I can say is this. There are Ishukone and Intaki assets being put at risk by this push by the Federation forces. Namely being put at risk by their cloned soldiers and cloned mercenaries. This is not, in my opinion, done intentionally but due to the weaponry and zeal of many of the clones there is a large amount of collateral damage that we feel is unproductive towards our profit margins. So we are simply protecting our investments and hoping to stem the tide of clones and capsuleers before a general gets overzealous and decides he knows better than the Federal Senate in matters of war. |

I am not accusing your corporation of spying on Intaki. I am merely pointing out that despite the Operation Highlander leaks, it can be most assured that all Caldari megacorporations spy on the Federation (including Intaki) in equal measure. |

That kind of information is definitely above my pay grade. But it wouldn't surprise me if the Megacorporations did spy on the Federation, just like it definitely wouldn't surprise me if the Federation was spying on the State. That's just politics, part of the existence of government. |

For better or worse then, Inhonores, it would appear that the State's member corporations are better at concealing their intelligence activities than the Federation. Ultimately, whether it's the breach of the law or incompetence in allowing this breach to become known, clearly the Federation deserves some manner of sanction for its actions.

Intaki is part of the Federation, thus the Federation invading Intaki is a ludicrous concept.
However, FDU elements or federal covert ops doing harm to the Intaki system - highly subjective concept subject to interpretation - remains a possibility, since the Security license for the Intaki system has been auctioned to Mordu. |

Somewhat off topic now - and for that I apologise - but there are other options beyond simple incompetence and breach of OPSEC. You may have noticed that the real winner from all of the recent Senate changes and stage-managed "fallout" from the Highlander leaks was the President. In the new Senate leader, he has an ally that will help consolidate support for his expansionist policies from the legislative branch of the Federation government. This will in turn fortify the support he already receives from the Federation military-industrial complex, which was largely responsible for his election and the downfall of his predecessor in the first place.
YC115 has proven to be one of the best years on record for the Roden administration. The destruction of the Shigeru and the 'liberation' of Luminaire alone will see him remembered by most in the future as hero rather than tyrant. The 'soft' diplomacy with Ishukone and the Legion which saw both Caldari and Federal citizens return to the planet under equal status. Then the fortuitous turn of events that saw the Republic commit a string of gross strategic errors all to take a madman they would have been freely given anyway was utilised to both capitalise on this image and add justification to illegal security measures such as Highlander when they later came to light.
And when Highlander did come to light? Those that might have raised objections to his vision have been systematically removed in the name of 'ethics', 'law' and 'transparency' and replaced by those more welcoming of it.
Few of these things can be trusted to have resulted from the chance outcome of incompetent governance. Rather, this is looking more like a masterclass in Gallente power politics with each new revelation. O. Rundle The Synenose Accord Not indicative of corporate policy unless otherwise stated. |

I think as soon as they were included in the CEWPA warzone, what they wanted became somewhat irrelevant. For better or worse, unfortunately, their fate is no longer in their hands.

Ishukone-Raata's deployment is not a direct response to the regular capsuleer activities in the region, but rather to the recent influx of GÇ£immortal mercenaries.GÇ¥ We have been observing their actions since their introduction. They have proven themselves to be exponentially more destructive than regular soldiers and do not carry any restrictions on that power within their areas of operation.
Add in the new role capsuleers are playing in bombarding these planets (many of which are inhabited, and it should be noted the Intaki have voiced several concerns against the use of Orbital Weapons against populated planets) and you can see why we are concerned with the safety of Ishukone-Raata assets, along with Ishukone's and/or the IntakiGÇÖs planetary interests. It must be noted that while planetary and orbital security will be our primary directive, Ishukone-Raata will not hesitate to engage any and all elements that wish to interfere with these operations as should be expected.

I'm not really sure what to make of this now.
Heiian Kirjuun is a channel specifically designed to call for Orbital bombardment support -- yet if I-RED are going to support such operations how can they say they are seeking to prevent Orbital strikes against populated planets by providing those strikes against populated planets? |

As far as I can see you're the ones that made a vague public statement and apparently made the contradicting objectives of seeking to prevent supposed collateral damage done by orbital strikes (Which seems odd given the size and yield of orbital weaponry cleared for use by CONCORD designed to minimize such collateral damage by tactical orbital strikes -- note that the truly destructive ammunition such as antimatter or nuclear rounds are banned) by interceding through providing orbital strikes.
This is of course unless I-RED seeks to intervene and interfere in the orbital tactical strike support of State Peacekeeper operations in the CEWPA warzone in order to defend Ishukone interests and assets to the detriment of Caldari militia operations? |

No. We're not going to fight you, Gesakaarin-haani. We're not looking for a fight with you or the Protectorate or the Peacekeepers. After countless [failed] attempts at diplomacy with your corporation directly, you yourself should understand that we aren't your enemy nor do we wish to be. You and yours need not worry about being fired upon by our vessels. Unlike your organization, we don't shoot neutrals in low-sec, of which you are one (by your own choice). Perhaps you should look elsewhere for an enemy, because we will not humor you.
Those who aren't neutral have already demonstrated hostility against I-RED vessels, and our pilots will not hesitate to shoot first and ask questions later. That said, even in those cases we aren't going to be crawling the warzone looking for destroyers to pop. All that said, this really isn't about Capsuleers or our cobweb of diplomatic standings.
This is about clone mercs. I'll try to simplify the flowery language:
Nova Corps Marines, a division of I-RED, is going to start showing up in Intaki to ensure the stability and safety of our assets and those of Ishukone. We will also be managing a channel to organize tactically sound orbital bombardments for the benefit of Coalition members. As for the Intaki Assembly's stance on them, let me restate what the Intaki Assembly actually said about orbital strikes:
Quote:"Orbital strikes, even tactical ones on remote sites, can kick up dust and spread pollution and wreckage," the press release read. "It is unconscionable that someone thought these activities were acceptable for entertainment and profit. That doesn't even consider the fact that it was essentially killing for fun. The Intaki Assembly would have never sanctioned such an event."
We aren't doing this for entertainment or profit. We aren't going to be doing it as often as possible. Furthermore, we're not in the business of trying to 'protect Intaki's biosphere'. We're in the business of looking out for Ishukone's interests by force of finance and arms. We'll try not to make too much of a mess in the process, however, as that tends to interfere with the profitability of our agreement with the Intaki.

I'll stop you right there. Mordu's are mercenaries, guns for hire. They sided with enemy combatant forces to the Federation.
