The smell of incense fills the air of the cockpit, as the hard-travelled trader checks the neural net about the message boards at the same time he looks through the windows the beautiful sea at one of Curacao's resorts.

Comm ID: Thomas Markus, captain of the Casanova

As a independent trader of a small company, I had a good relationship with the SF. The company was always doing trade with goods not regarded as contraband by the SF, and I talked with their officers in a gentle manner, to avoid the boredom of trading. In one of these talks, I asked them about the dangers of a profitable route, the one that go from Cambridge to Omicron Tetha. I remember quite well that one of their first answers was something like "you do not want to concern about the Asgard Warriors, they dont attack traders". Knowing they were at war, I saw that as a statement of respect between opponents. I never had problems with these zoners, and who attacked the Casanova were the corsairs from the Brotherhood, not the AW.
Now what I see here is, in my opinion, a blatant war propaganda, filled with grief. Admiral RedBear, with due respect, why the SA dont care more with the HF and the Brotherhood? These are the real threats in my opinion, and other traders agree with me as well. I cant enter California right now because of their attacks. Its in the news: "lane hackers and corsairs destroyed several transports at Los Angeles orbit" (SNN), "pirates strikes again: terror at Los Angeles orbit damages trade, estimated losses are 1,5 billion credits" (Sirius AP). No reference to the AW, because they dont attack traders. So, I asking you to do peace with the AW, and concentrate more your efforts in the pirate threat.

Thomas Markus out.
