Actually Iaitoo the ICC aren't that bad really...ok maybe they are when not doing anything such as recently. But they did save Newland from Omni-Tek invasion when they attempted it back in 29475. That was the same day the ICC promised the neutral population that "they will protect the neutral population from Clan or Omni-Tek aggression".
Now, its all pretty much how things are phased, and how much smoke Omni are using to do whatever. But Borealis was recognised as a neutral city by the ICC, as is Newland, Last Ditch, and Hope and a few other minor spots thrown around. Namely all the places which the ICC put the troops to do what they claim they were to do.
The sad thing is though, the ICC as ever with stupid beauracratic idiots, tend to forget things unless its stapled to their foreheads and stamped in red a dozen times. But then again, thats what us old codgers are here for, to remind people of days gone, and that the promises they made which they aren't sticking to.
The ICC made a promise to the neutral people and are failing to live up to it. Omni-Tek are using this to their advantage, which is all well and good. But as was shown the last time they pushed their luck, they got a huge wedge taken off the end of the lease. If the ICC has what is needed, to stand up for what they promised, and to do what they are duty bound to do. Like wise action is needed, and in doing do the lease would now be void.
