Opening message...
I have refrained from transmitting up until now, but i find i must clarify a few things.
Firstly, the "hostage situation" the Phoenix and members of Freeport 11 claim is not in fact a "hostage situation". The station is on lockdown due to the actions taken by admiral golanski, and will remain so until the crisis has ended and the threat of the Order removed.
Furthermore, we accuse the members of Freeport 11, and the Phoenix, of being beholden to Admiral Golanski and helping to perpetrate this unwarranted and illegal aggression against the Temporary Autonomous Zoners.
Secondly: We demand that Admiral Golanski surrender himself into Discordian custody for trial. The charges are as follows:
1 count of assaulting a TAZ flagged Vessel
1 count of assaulting the Blessed Persephone
1 count of breaching the No Fire Zone of Baffin.
At least 1 count of assault on a pope (possibly more. depends on how many popes were on the persephone)
5 counts of making threats towards the Temporary Autonomous Zoners
1 count of entering Baffin for the purposes of committing illegal acts.
Golanski will be tried according to the Pentabarf.
This is also a notice to the Order: Any Order vessel entering Baffin will be subject to internment and arrest of the crew. If they refuse to comply, they will be destroyed.
Our sole offer for the order to end this without further conflict has been given to Councilman Joseph Wolf, of the Solar Runners, who is free and present at the summit and been given clearance to communicate this to Solar Runners Council, who may act as independent mediators in this crisis.
