I have heard several highly disturbing rumors floating around lately not the least of which is that Coalition forces were attacked by Zoner vessels and that the Coalition is planning to move on the Omega-49 system as a result. Of course these are all just rumors but seeing as some of our security personnel are concerned about this I would like to ask that in the spirit of diplomacy an official denial would be the best way to move forward I feel.

As of one hour ago, we were attacked. Evidence suggests it was an attack purportrated by a zoner group with known ties and affiliations to the Reapers of Sirius.
We cannot allow such an attack to go without response.
Until the culprits are apprehended, the Coalition must act to secure it's borders, and that means taking whatever steps Commandante Rhade feels are needed to ensure our safety. Bear in mind, the man has lost his own son less than an hour ago to these terrorists...
We welcome your diplomatic efforts, but advise all OSI ships to steer clear of the vengence fleet assembled to persecute and apprehend the criminals responsible.
I cannot guarantee your safety otherwise.
For the Revolution!

You placed a man who lost his son to unknown terrorists in charge of a " Vengeance Fleet" and pointed him at the Zoners? I would have thought our past diplomatic efforts would have amounted to at least a notice.
And what makes you believe that this was perpetrated by Zoners may I ask?

What is outrageous is picking pieces of what used to be a school girl an hour ago, out of your hair.
Rhade took his fleet and went after the source, any grief stricken man would. I have my men getting him back under control, but that takes effort, given the rage that my people feel over this situation.
Today is not a day for lectures from Zoners. I want answers to the questions at hand, and my men will uncover the truth.
For the time being your chief executive is welcome to Rendevous with the Coalition Flagship at the edge of the system, and we will commence talks aimed at abating this armed conflict before it goes too far.
You ask for why I believe this to be a Zoner attack? We have been under attack from cloak capable Zoner vessels for a week now, one of which was caught in orbit of Volgograd with a cargo hold full of MARINE Commandos... When spotted it engaged a cloaking device and ran.
You seriously don't expect us to put two and two together?

Alright, it appears that Mr. Cross is going to be heading to Omega-52 with your taskforce and the crisis has been averted for now. I will be looking forward to finding the perpetrators of this crime with you if you will have my assistance.
