Good morning, Señor Machete and General Garcia:
I don't doubt your intentions make the most sense for you, and that each one of you wants to protect Omega 49 from the other. However, the mess you made the other day with the bombing of Gran Canaria has been incredible.
I 'm not a resident of this planet, but I'm here for a few weeks for some business, and I've observed what type of life have people of Gran Canaria. The truth is that I found a rather quiet and nice, and its inhabitants seem happy. Or at least it seemed, until you decide to bomb the surface of their home furiosly from your powerful battleships.
The horrors that this massacre has provoked, I had not seen in years. How can you claim to be protecting a planet while you submit it under the fire of your mortars? One of my assistants took this image from the window of the hotel where I stay. The image is a simple example of the destruction that has taken place due to the bombing.
Although I don't share it, I can understand that your political differences require be resolved through war, but, in the Holy Name of Deux, the civilian population of Gran Canaria doesn't need more pain. With that you've already provided it's enough. Don't bombard the planet again.
At the moment NCC has sent the Pontifical Carrier Magallanes, Aquilon class, to the orbit of Gran Canaria, with a cargo of medicines and personnel prepared to intervene if it should happen a humanitarian crisis.
Deux be with you.
