Greetings, Ladies, gentlemen and other respectful human and not so human beings.
It has come to my attention that the majority of you were once again cunningly duped.
You were led to believe that the Core has decided to besiege the Freeport and has murdered many "innocent" zoners.

Unfortunately, this is not the case. Of course, I don't have just my words to support my claim.
I have evidence and plenty of it too.
Let's start from the very beginning. Let me tell you about two particular zoner ships.
the Arcadia and the I-401.
The former being a Zoner "Colony" Ship and the later, a zoner Carrier.
A colony ship, as we all know, has plenty of crew and inhabitants on it, that's why it's not wise to go into combat.
But it did.
The Arcadia and the I-401 openly supported the Order against the Core.

That's right, the Order. A terrorist organisation. They're responsible for the deaths of many good people.
Fathers and mothers working in the law enforcement and navy. The order has taken their lives and left their children orphaned.
The same Order that has stolen multiple advanced military prototypes. The same order that claims to protect man kind, yet, became nothing else but a pseudo-empire in the last years.
An organisation that started as a noble squad of misfits and became the worst possible people you can deal it.
There's more then a few zoners who openly support those disgusting terrorists, boasting to be the saviors of mankind, while in reality, they care only for their own well being.
Yes, that's what the zoners do with the money they've earned from selling you various goods. They support terrorists.
Not all of them, of course. I do not mean to insult all those hard working Zoners that are the backbone of many independent operations that benefit humanity in general.
But enough about that, let's get back to the two Zoner capital ships.
Both had previously violated our laws, so we decided to correct the problem.
We had lost countless good men to them and in order to prevent the loss of even more, we had to act.

The Comnenos and the Diaboli moved in, warned all parties of the situation and engaged the two primary targets.
Anyone else that got shot, got shot because it tried to prevent us proving a point and enforcing our own laws.
We've never violated a single zoner law since the ceasefire, but that can't be said about them.
A good portion of the zoner population in Delta does not even know of the Core laws.
They openly transport alien biological material and without proper precautions too.
That's dangerous not only to them, but to everyone that comes in contact with them.
And who knows where those things end up? Probably in the hands of terrorists or pirates.
Those same people are trespassing in our territory without having the common sense to ask.
I've never denied anyone from the right of passage. Neither has the Guildmaster. As a matter of a fact, a few weeks back, a zoner convoy passed through our home system.
It's leader contacted us and we approved the request. We gave them no trouble. That goes to show that we respect those who respect us.

Of course, when we finally enforce our own laws, we instantly become the bad guys. Well, I have news for you.
What you've heard, that we're attacking the Freeport again? Lies.
No orders to attack the station were given and not a single shot landed on it.
Of course, I realize a whole lot of people will rush towards the omicrons to help the damsel in distress, but sadly, there's no such thing.
You've been masterfully duped and your kindness has been abused.
Further more, many Zoners stated that the Freeport has a population of Thousands, while in reality, it's hundreds. Yet another lie to amplify the compassion sparked in your hearts.
The Zoners are from the "harmless hippies" many believe to be.
A good portion of them runs unchallenged and supports that very people that vow to destroy everything lawful and dear to us.
Again, there's respectful ladies and gentlemen in their ranks, but also a whole load of criminals that abuse the general reputation of the organization.

As proof of our good intentions, all relief operations are fully authorized and will not be harmed, in fact, we shall protect them.
I'm sure there will be many of those, just like during the last incident. But uh, here's a tip, place a tracker in your donations. You don't know where they might
end up.

Whoever you are, I urge you to heed this message and remember it.
We, the Core, are simply making sure that laws we set in place are being obeyed. Just like any other government enforces their laws, we enforce ours. It is, in the end, as simple as that.
We protect you from the dangers you have not even heard about, we put our lives on the line just so sirius can continue it's existence.

Even if they did attack your vessels, that does not mean you can engage those that have nothing to do with it, as well as endangering the people of the Freeport and even worse, murdering them. If you wish to deal with those that engaged you, find them by asking nicely, if someone does not now, move along.

I am hostile to the order as well, but I will not stand by and watch innocent people getting killed because someone dented your hull.

Dear Corelings.

I have been on the scene when your vessels attacked IRG research vessel that had nothing to do with the incident you speak of right now. Moreover, you outright demanded surrender of Freeport 11, which I was witness as well. If you are to threat l'civilians which roam across Omicrons, which already have it hard because of low-life pirates and aliens - you are no friend of mine. C'est kind of behaviour which you present can only be met on the Gallic frontlines, when Royal Navy orders to shoot the escape pods from civilians vessels.

Your act, which I witnessed myself yesterday is disgrace and outright declaration of war. But against who? Against all civilian population of Omicron Delta that did nothing wrong? I may be l'mercenaire, but even mercenaries - especially the Gallic ones - have a decent backbone Corelings seem to lack at all. Innocent blood, no matter who it started, is on your hands.

Topic: Core's Propaganda Attempt

Oh, the Core sends a message to all of Sirius, trying to paint itself as the lawful rulers and the strict, but benevolent protectors of humanity in the Omicrons who just want to pass their justice on two wayward criminals?

You are the tyrants of the Omicrons. You are worse than the alien threat because they are not willfully evil, yet you are.

So you really try to claim that you are not the "bad guys" in the Omicrons?
Let's have your deeds of the past speak for themeslves and compare that to your words today!

I am sure that the Sirian public has not forgotten and will not forget these pictures, because: THIS IS THE CORE.

This is their real and ugly face of power crazed imperialists who try to force the free to live under their yoke, always threatened with extinction.

You have shown your face before. You maybe can fool some once. Do not expect to be able to do it twice. And you will never again fool any of the free people in the Omicrons, for you have shown your face and we have all seen you.

The Core is the menace to freedom.
The Core is the danger to peace!
No one else.

Ms Stormclaw, we only engaged the violators of our laws. The Solar vessel was engaged because it started lobbing torpedos towards us.
Furthermore, Diaboli and Comnenos captains tactically pulled the two zoner carriers out of the Freeport's vicinity.

Monsieur d'Tancarville, I've been informed about the incident with the IRG vessel.
It has been reported to me, that said vessel was standing directly between the Core fleet and the fleeing Corsair attack party.
Unfortunate incident indeed. But that is no excuse. That IRG vessel should've never be shot in the first place.
As for those responsible for the so called "surrender demand", I can assure you, they have or are being punished accordingly.
No such "hostile takeover" order has been issued by our leader it never will be.
That is why the Core is absolutely supporting any and all relief and S&R operations.
With the risk of repeating myself, the only kill or capture orders are against Arcadia and I-401.

Ms. Sonya Hunt, the leadership has been changed. We're making amends. Guildmaster Daniels strongly disagrees with any violence against "innocent" zoners.
That being said, all criminals shall be punished. It's like letting a murderer go just because he was born in Bretonia and thus, he's a Bretonian.
That's now how laws work and I'm sure you know it.
I realize mistakes were made in the past, but this isn't the case now.
We're enforcing our own laws. We were provoked now, we made a point. We've asked for a meeting with the captains of I-401 and Arcadia and in the meanwhile, we've no orders to attack any and all zoners. You, of course, you already have your mind set on something. You fail to understand that there's more than one point of view to any given situation.

"So it appears once again the Core has reached beyond themselves and continue to inflict misery upon everyone around them. One would think the Core would have learned from the last time they poked a stick at the Freeport not to do so again. But than again greed and corruption tend to cloud logic and keep them on the shallow end of the gene pool. So Sirius may do the universe a favor it seems and pour some chlorine into the pool.

Perhaps we shall pour some of our own as well. Expect us."

Ah, Comrade whoever-you-may-be.
We shall not tolerate more terrorist in our space. Or anywhere else, for that matter. You're expected.
There's a bunch of us that have a very deep hatred for your kind,
I'm sure they'll be more than happy to annihilate you and rid the omicrons from your poisonous influence.

"First off, let me get some of your information correct before you start assuming things, captain. I was the Solar Runner that engaged your Core vessels, however, only after I warned you to take it outside the no-fire-zone. Instead, what I saw, respectfully from my bomber craft, was one battleship fire towards the eastern hanger of Freeport 11 at four point seven clicks from the Freeport itself, before the other, sitting at six point three, began to fire mortars at the two accused ships."

"Now before you go off and rant at us Runners, did you even realize the ships were moored? Or the fact that you completely ignored the IRG Whale, and myself to NOT engage inside the no-fire-zone, in which, the Core promptly ignored and did such anyways?"

"As if that's not bad enough, from my point of view, having no contact with Core at all in the last few months, mind you I just managed to make it from Liberty to Delta, the first thing I saw, out of all things, was Core arriving on spot to engage the two Zoner ships, in the no-fire-zone, with no justified reason. Only after had the two vessels left did you explain it to those unaware of why you attacked, but by which time, you had already attacked a city ship, in attempts to get one person out of the possible two thousands on board, and then turn on the carrier, and proceed to do the same."

"While yes, I guess I could of ask what the hell you were doing, before we could do such, you were already firing your weapons of war towards the two ships that, mind you, were still moored to the Freeport. And yes, I'll take pity on the Manta that I shot down, but in all fairness, you didn't explain a darn thing, or anyone there. Remember how even the IRG demanded to know why you were shooting, and instead didn't say anything? Now you know why we see it as an impromptu assault. If I would of been informed that you were seeking the two captains, we Solar Runners would of even sat down with the Core guilds-leaders and the two captains to resolve this situation then result to pointless bloodshed."

"And yes, while I get they shot you, I really do, don't get me wrong, did that really require the Core to drag out two war vessels and to attack them near the Freeport and cause a mess of problems which they now have? Why not of've asked the CoF for them, instead of jumping right to gunfire?"

"At the end, you didn't tell the Zoner's anything till AFTER the engagement was said and done, even while the Solar Runners and IRG were right there, in space, demanding to know what the hell was going on. Only LATER did you even bother to inform us what the hell you came seeking for, only after you attacked an IRG carrier, only after you fired inside the no fire zone, and only after you prompted us Zoners to defend the Freeport."

"And once again, you now understand, that we did ask you what the heck you were doing, only for your captains to ignore us and keep shooting, and then after you killed innocent lives on the IRG ship, did the Core even bother to inform the Zoners as to what the heck you were seeking. You once more deadfaced with the fact that you told us nothing and just expected us to hand over two captains, but instead of waiting, even for a few days to get them, you decided to attack and destroy a zoner ship not even in the conflict and demand the surrender of the Freeport."

"That, my dear Core Guildsmen, is where you stand in this conflict, as the people who started a conflict, without even bothering to inform the Zoners first as to why, only after you killed innocent lives onboard a third party vessel."

"May the star's hide your secrets."

Words are cheap. And they come easy.
It's actions that count.

Why haven't the criminals that inflicted the massacre to Freeport 11 been handed over to the Zoners for justice?

You claim you just want the 2 ships. Fine!

We want your predecessor, plus all the commanders of Core vessels that fired at Freeport 11, we want all those who are responsible for or complicit in actions against Zoners and their allies for past and recent atrocities, so we can pass judgement on them for their crimes against humanity. According to our laws.

How does that sound?
What will it be?
More words?
Or action?

If you want justice, be ready to grant it to others for mistakes of the past you just admitted and claimed to regret.

You're nothing but a bloodthirsty ghoul, Ms. Hunt. The events of the past are over and you still dwell into them.
It's pointless and toxic. As for the leader, he's gone. Most likely dead. MIA in our records. He's the one that gave the order, if you can find him, he's all yours.
Good luck.

Now, back to the matter at hand.
Mr Solar Runner.
Allow me to answer all yours questions.
The ships were not moored, as the footage from the Comnenos shows.

As you can see, the tactical pull away from the Freeport was perfectly executed.
Now, as for informing you, let me pull the logs.

Spoiler

As you can see, we made it clear who the targets were and what exactly we wanted. We had given them more than a month to contact us.
No attempts were made. So we moved to Phase two.
And why we didnt' asked the CoF? Because they would've never willingly surrendered a colony ship and a carrier.
Our target was to cripple both ships and put them out of the picture so they cannot engage us in the future.
By the way, are you aware Arcadia's command openly admitted to harboring alien specimen on board? You should inquire on that. It's quite the story.
He personally told me, while he was discharging twenty plus weapons at me one day. Right in the no fire zone. Just because I was there.
As for the crew on board, their actions cost us the lives of many men and women on board the ships they attacked. It also cost us a tactical victory over the order terrorists.
They directly interfered with our primary objective. They murdered Core personal without any provocation at all. Because of that last reason alone, our actions are justified.
We're defending the lives of our own people. If the CoF cannot get their warships in line, we shall not stand idly. We will protect that which is rightfully yours, just like you will protect that which belongs to you.
As for the fact someone decided to order the Freeport's surrender, well, it's a misunderstand and misinterpreting of orders.
No such order was given, and no such order will be given by our Guildmaster. The Freeport is not and will not be our target.
This was nothing more than precision strike against violators of our laws.
Besieging a Freeport? I don't think so.
You're over-dramatizing a simple military op. Op that could've been prevent had the culprits simply apologized to us.
No contact was made, action was taken. It is, in the end, as simple as an eye for an eye.

Anything else?
