"Perhaps, this is the time when some additional information about the operational status quo in the anti-BMM efforts should be presented, Ladies and Gentlemen..." Jack clears his throat and continues, using the bridge that Sanders built for him.
"There has already been some very successful cooperation between myself and Nature's Last Hope forces, although restricted to the Dublin IMG Ops. I decided to keep that off the official channels because we need plausible deniability in case a link is suspected or some information is leaked. Let me elaborate a bit how it has been done, and we might assess whether it can work that way in the future... perhaps on a larger scale."
"My personal contacts to Ms. Hart and an incident in which BMM miners fired at me without provocation and was protected by BAF and IAB triggered the cooperation."
"I informed Ms. Hart about position and other relevant operational details on a secure comm-channel and we agreed that a donation to the group's effort is just fair. Some 20 minutes later the miner was hit by Nature's Last Hope ships, while alone in the field."
"This is one example of 14 hits that the cooperation between myself and a small number of handpicked agents of the NLH - all personally known to me - has produced so far."
"From an operational perspective I'd assess it as a success, a win-win situation for all involved parties. Sometimes we even could salvage the ore or buy it via third party vendors."
"So much for the status of the Dublin side of an already running covert cooperation, even though it is still small scale." and he leans back, smiling to Sequoia and waiting for what would happen next.
