Just to check. You do know he was handed over.
https://community.eveonline.com/news/news-channels/world-news/broteau-sentenced-to-be-extradited-to-republic/
Elsebethās point was that the Federation refused to even discuss the possibility of extraditing the murderer, until after the Republic had made their attempt to seize him. And the Federation were supposed to be good allies of the Republic.
So, the chances of being able to negotiate the arrest of someone who is a Khanid subject, the Kingās representative even, areā¦ slim enough that they could hide behind an atom.
He was sentenced by the Feds to be handed over. Jurisdiction was theirs to the bitter end.
Do you seriously think Khanid Kingdom will do the same with their Sa-Baron because he killed some slaves that were not even Republic citizens?

Unless it can be confirmed by Republic investigations that he was behind the bombing of Kaihu on Rens Station 6-8. That would be cause for demanding extradition.
ā¦ not that the Kingdom and the Empire would ever give it.

Oh, we could demand until weāre hoarse. But the Kingdom would claim that judging on a Sa-Baron is Kingās business, and they would be perfectly within their tradition to state so.

I have always had a fondness for the Ammatar.
It is and will always be the position of Fweddit that any action, overtly or covertly, taken against the Empire to which we have been consistently loyal as a military force, even in our current state as an independent actor, will be stubbornly opposed. These latest actions by the wayward children of Matar, and our activities in response to them, are simply a continuation of our service to the Empire. Additionally, it is the position of Fweddit that the supposed denouncement by third column actors within the Empire are a betrayal of the values of Her Majesty the Empress Jamyl Sarum I, and in the spirit of Her memory and in the Reclaiming which she so rightly championed will, as such, be ignored.
As independent capsuleers and not, for example, recognized and legitimate Holders, you do realize that you possessing slaves is an act in contravention of Imperial law (only Holders are allowed to hold slaves), and as such, constitutes a philosophical attack on the legitimacy of the Throne, right?

And even if they were Holders, slave sacrifices are still blatant heresy.

Well spoken Lord Admiral @Gaven_Lok_ri,
This just reiterates the point of why we need, nay, must bring a stop to these Blood Cultist traitors, Minmatar terrorists and indeed anyone who vocally or physically shows themselves as an enemy of the Empire.
And Sa-Baron @Alar_Chakaid - It must be recognised, the fearless and valiant efforts of Empire and Kingdom military forces in their dealings with this wretched matter. This truly is a testament to their resolute ethos that upholds our Faith.
Now more than ever, the 24th Imperial Crusade at the forefront of this war must unite and hold strong against our enemies. Never again can we allow these Heathens to forcibly set foot on sacred Holy Amarr ground.

You really ought to be grateful. A fortunate few of your people have survived, and so retained the chance to redeem themselves in the eyes of God.
Much like a fortunate few on my fleetsā¦ Odds are dropping for certain people.
As an aside the point, alot more of us donāt or, rather didnāt choose that path. Much like flies following the light into a bug zapper, there are many more who didnāt than did. We have a Republic full of them after all.
At this point God can try to redeem himself in our eyes. You, however, heartless creature that you are, are beyond hope. When your house is in flames and most of your family lies dead at our hands, I will tell you that you ought to be grateful, for a fortunate few of you survived. And so retain the chance to seek redemption.
In OUR eyes.

No need for flames, Vuld. Minmataur scum armed with viral bombs eradicated what little family I had, along with several hundred other civilians. In a shopping district, no less. I never did see the final tally, but at least two thirds of those affected were innocent slaves, whose souls are now in Godās care.
I might also add that it was not God who committed these atrocities, but misguided and confused humans, whose inability to control their emotions with rational decision making skills led to terrible actions on both sides.
Me personally, Iāve never had hooves.
Horns, occasionally, but never hooves.

It is with a sense of amusement that I must point out the fact that schoolchildren are frequently regaled with horror tales of the demonic creatures called Minmataur - supposedly, they are former humans whose heresies are so terrible they literally become demons.
So are you saying that your family was killed by demons from horror stories?
Also, Iāll point out with a sense of bemusement that the Matari are a widely varied people, and you probably shouldnāt assume that we all know your supposed fairytales.
Not to point out the obvious, but those same Matari scum you speak of are people you deal with on a daily basis in corp. Have tyrel or I ever gloated about such things to you? Have we really held your beliefs against you? No, despite them I think I can speak for both of us when I say we donāt feel your heartās in the wrong place, you just need to see who we as a people actually are and what we actually stand for. Your teachers lied to you, not out of malice but out of lack of experience in dealing with us at an equal level. Itās easy to ignore the background when you fixate on the foreground. We do the same largely as well.

And you somehow feel it is best to respond to this inability with a further inability to control your emotions or make rational decisions? Your words reek of thoughtless prejudice. The Minmatar are as much people as you. Capable of great good, and great evil. We are not bound by the chains of God, and for that I am thankfull.
But no sane woman should ever look at an atrocity and say we should be āthankfullā for the few that survived.

I do not deny that such frivolous horror tales are not entirely accurate. I no more believe in wizards casting spells to usurp the powers of God than I believe mere mortals will physically transform into monsters.
I work alongside your corp under the benefit of the doubt - for my Faith inspires me to believe you lot are misguided, and I aim to turn you to a better a path as time goes on. For there to be anything more than ignorant conflict between us, a bridge must be built reaching from one shore to the other, and I have taken it upon myself to cast across the ropes to begin such construction. I can only pray, and continue to point the way, for you all to willingly cross that bridge yourselves when the time comes, from heathen corruptions to honest faithfulness.
Each side misunderstands the other, and no task worthy of the doing is ever truly easy, and so I grit my teeth and fan the flames of my own Faith so that I might complete this task I have set before myself.
As to the āliesā of my teachers, they are the result of certainā¦ misunderstandings on the part of the Faithful. They know the Word of God, but rely on others to define the Will of God, and often take these derived messages a bit too literally, which has led to further misunderstandings.
In truth, all we people are one people, one species, the descendants of those whom God Chose and to whom was given the New Eden. We must seek to cleanse ourselves of these misunderstandings and sins we pile up in ignorance, and strive to live properly again, as we did before the closing of the Gate.
