I blame the corrupting influence of Achuran culture; having conquered the Achurans, the Caldari are now conquered by the Achurans. It has long been observed that Achuran culture, particularly its cartoons and comic books, have an infantilizing effect upon non-Achuran consumers. A Caldari military whose Achuraboo officers and men sleep with body pillows featuring members of the Doki Doki Kestrel Club (or whatever is the popular series these days) is not a military that is going to offer much resistance to anything. Also unhelpful is the Achuran religion, which privileges naval-gazing mental activity without effect in the real-world (the detachment from which is the whole point of the Achuran religion); by contrast, the vigorous Amarr Faith rewards those who enter the arena of battle and slaughter the enemies of God and Empire.
The time has come for the Caldari people to reject the corrupting influence of Achuranism and rediscover their Maker, God, the Amarr God, worship of whom will bring them salvation. Amen. Amarr Victor.
