...TRANSLATING DATA...

We had thought that those acting in the defense of your interests coming under fire by those who also claim to have them at heart might give your biological self pause. An opportunistic attack against the largest organized force in Inverness operating against the Republic of Liberty mere days after they staged their offensive is tantamount to an alliance. The action alone represents a Xeno threat against Zoner interests in the system.

Were it a Zoner Freeport in Ontario, we would not have engaged them.

Nothing else to add. End of message.

Megiddo
