Tsk Tsk Tikon, I would think an intelligent police officer such as yourself would do his homework prior to making such a bold public statement.
I draw your attention to the mouth of the horse, and the words emanating therefrom:
Note that the entire text of this statement, as it appeared in Rubi-Ka Headline Services, can be found here.Official statement of Isidra Derousse on the deployment of peacekeepers to Rubi-Ka, as made 21 August 29476
"The ICC recognises the Omni-Tek Corporation's lease on Rubi-Ka, and its sovereignty as the corporate government of the colony, and we have no intention of undermining Omni-Tek’s authority...
"While Omni-Tek remains the only planet-wide authority, they have allowed the clans to exist in peace, under the governance of the Council of Truth. Without the Council's unifying influence, Rubi-Ka might face another civil war. Since Rubi-Ka is also our only source for notum, which remains a vital building-block in the galactic economy, it is vital that the processing and shipment of notum is neither slowed nor cut short, as all corporations, colonies, and sovereign nations and planets would suffer irreparable harm.
[emphasis added]
Quite conclusive.
((EDIT: Everyone PLEASE keep "IC" discussions "IC" and STOP using the "OOC" tag as a blanket to cover your flame of someone. That three-letter acronym is killing this board for everyone.))
