Brotherhood Message Dump

[Zelot]

From Sephardi
To Corsairs


Hermanos, you are missing the point, this is not about wether ICO is good or bad, or wether we should deal with them or not. It's about the independence of the Corsiar nation. How independent can we be if SCRA is allowed to dictate when, where, and with whom we choose to talk. This is not about ICO, we are not looking to ally with ICO, but if Elder Montoya felt it was appropreate to grant passage to a diplomatic vessel from ICO, it is no buisness of the Coallition to stop the Elders wishes. Just because we choose to talk to a group, does not mean we are allied, but to think it is approprate to never ever talk to one's enemies should look to history. Those groups who choose the isolationist route, are bound to failure. Again though, that is not the point, the point is it is up to the Corsair Nation to deside it's course of diplomacy, we are not the subjects of the coallition, and we should not act like it. No one is saying we should be freinds with ICO or even not hostile, but universaly, ships designated diplomatic are granted protections. This was a diplomatic ship, and should be treated as such. While we shouldnt be freinds with ICO, who are the Coalition to tell use we cant even discuss terms with them, who are the coalition to tel The Brotherhood what we can and cannot do. Just to sum up, 1) Just because we talk with ICO, doesnt make us freinds, Globlo, dont worry about that. Some times we must talk to our enemies. 2) even if we wanted to be freinds with ICO (Which we dont) It is not the place of SCRA to tell us what we can and cannot do in Gamma, especaily to an Elder.
