The fact that the TCGs RP was so different from the Orders is what was causing the problems. You bringing the LN situation to a head when we would prefer to keep it in a state of cold war is what started the FR5 proceedings. The killing of Order agents and direct disobeying of oders from Osbourne was what put the final nail in the coffin so to speak.
In relation to the question of Navy and Order hostilities, I have this to say...
The Order are not in a great position. They are fighting against the Nomads and at the same time are trying to hold of the Bounty Hunters Guild. The reason we have tried our hardest to keep relation with Liberty from becoming open war is because we can't handle it. They are not meant to be the enemy. They are only hostile because of circumstances beyond either factions control and so we try to keep relations with them below boiling point. We even cooperated on occasion.
The TCG (and Order indies, the TCG aren't solely to blame) going into Alaska to hunt down that battlecruiser (who was also very much in the wrong) brought a lot of Navy ships to Minor looking for revenge. Waratahs threats of "we'll gank the navy 10 to 1" certainly did not help the situation and it was that more than the act of violating Alaska that started off the FR5 proceedings. Add to that the childish name calling that came out of the TCG in the aftermath of that incident followed by the blatant ignoring of OHCs orders to stay out of Alaska and eventually the violence perpetrated by Waratah and you have a very solid case for invoking FR5 in my opinion.
