This is a sorry state of affairs indeed.
It seems to me to be a simple misunderstanding over the definition of the word "to".
I urge both the CVA and the ISS to sit down and sort this out privately.
I am also somewhat dismayed to see that the ISS appears to be prepared to bring third parties into the conflict. Should this come about, I would personally take a very dim view of those who widen the conflict.

Originally by: Soltha SIl Providence is claimed as an extension of the Empire by CVA. So I suppose they are within their rights to remove people who they donĘt see fit.
However the thing I donĘt understand, is that the empire allows foreign stations within its borders. I suppose the question I want to ask is : Why donĘt the CVA want ISS within their space?
Easy answer there, because ISS put up several (I think it is up to 7 now) Large fully armed POS in a system which was part of the agreed claim that CVA and ISS made. Despite this being pointed out politely a long with a request to remove these POS we have had the sum total of "Well, we misunderstood your claim because "to" doesn't mean the same thing to us as it does everyone else."
It does not bode well if the ISS have been placing POS in the disputed system while this discussion has been ongoing.
I suggest that they do not add any more to the total as an act of good faith.

Originally by: Omber Zombie While I try not to get involved in political situations anymore, it saddens me to see two great entities going to war over a minor mistake. Some people will probably ask why I am commenting - to them I say that I am both an ISS shareholder, as well as considering myself a friend to some of those involved on the CVA's side.
I see the only resolution to this apalling situation as this: * ISS needs to admit they made a mistake and apologise. * ISS needs to remove the POS from a system that CVA has claimed as part of it's protectorate. * In a show of good faith and to help foster the peace that both entities wish to bring to the area, CVA should help the ISS move the POS to an area that is agreed to, and possibly help protect the area while ISS constructs it's outpost.
Yes, this is asking for proud people to admit they were wrong and perform actions that many would find extraordinary, but I believe that if both organisations have the same final goals, it would benefit both to do so.
In final, a plea. CVA has my respect as being the sword & shield of the Amarrian Empire, your work to promote peace in a lawless area is outstanding. ISS also hasmy respect as a business conglomerate that is helping to broaden trade and colonization to places in our universethat were barren. You are both fine examples, stop this bloodshed and work together.
I believe that Omber's suggestion is a good starting point for negotiations.
Perhaps he could chair a meeting between the two sides?

Originally by: Tyrrax Thorrk Golan Trevize is the finest example of what Amarr should be I have ever encountered, anyone who would question his loyalty to the Empire is an ignorant fool.
I wonder how to take that comment, coming as it does from someone who disobeyed an imperial edict to give the Grandmaster of Tetrimon safe passage...

Are these the same storm clouds that we've been hearing about for nearly three years now?

Rodj Blake, do you really want to deny the war-that-is-to-come? There is indeed a war brewing. We have felt a cold war arrise, and then the red moon of war. Soon the Empires will again be fighting. This is not something a sensible pod pilot can discount.
Whilst international relations have been deteriorating over the last few months, it's far from certain that war is the final outcome.
But maybe that's my view as a peaceloving Amarrian rather than a Minmatar filled with bloodlust.
