Gentlemen, I am a man of science and I detest violence as a method to gain the upper hand yet others still employ this method.

While transporting Optical chips from New Tokyo back to Stuttgart, we were halted at the Honshu jump gate by a Farmers Alliance heavy transport ID: [AFA]Crop.Duster He ordered us to stop, asked us where our destination was. We informed them of our intentions and they claimed we were stripping Kusari of their resources and demanded we drop the cargo. I made the counter claim that many Rheinland companies deliver cargo and minerals to develop these resources. We depend on each other. They did not see it as such.

We could have possibly defended ourselves, but against a heavy transport , it would have been futile. We attempted to compensate them for their quest, but they were determined to see things their way. We still tried to reason with them, but they still refused, seeing our destruction as their only remaining course of action.

Men take up arms because they feel there is no other way yet these farmers are convinced Rheinland is their enemy. Are they?
Ironic as I am working on development of food production to help, I hope, all of us.

I did not communicate this to chide you, or to belittle Kurasi, but to relay this incident to you. I respect the technological advancements your people have given Sirius and equally respect the distance you and your people hold to ensure their safety and prosperity.

I will have to place this incident behind me and move forward.
