Nice to see an alliance I once found respectable infected by open True Sansha loyalists.
The rest of this thread is a bunch of virtue signalling, or chest beating. Not really any different from any other day on the IGS...

For faith is your armor
And through it, the enemy will find no breach
Wrap your arms around the enemy
For faith is your fire
And with it, burn away his evil"

To be fair it's mostly the "friends" who weren't involved in the operation in the slightest on either side throwing their two isk in.
I could care less the business of two corporations conducting affairs by gunboat. I care that an alliance I respected once now holds a pack of Nation loyalists and apologists, which leads to a lot more difficult questions of why. A pilot's skillset and capability is one thing, but freely ignoring their ultimate ties of loyalty as if it didn't matter in the slightest?
MITG's choices are their own, but it should expect such choices to be considered by others and have long term implications on how others might view them.

Personally I just want to chime in and say a corporation only becomes surplus to requirements when you let it be. The best corporations adapt and overcome when trouble hits. They switch focus, come up with new ideas or walk a new path. They don't just keel over and die.
I think of when a corporation I helped found lost well in excess of 40b in assets from a patient thief. It was embarrassing and quite a hard blow. That corporation is still here. I also think of another corporation I was a part of that lost all of its space after considerable investment into reaction tower networks by the line members. That corporation is also still here.
One doesn't gain respect or satisfaction by achieving one or two big things then trumpeting about it before bowing out at the right time. One gains them through the sweat of the brow bullying through hard times and, much like tempered steel beaten out and blasted in a furnace, coming out stronger.

Unfortunatly since I'm not running for the Council this year I can't fight others in the ballot box so there's that option out of the equation.
