Hiverian Planetary Council Motion: Call of Cease Fire

[Mead]

Sadly The Truth Emerges

It is with heavy heart that I bring myself to this debate.

I ask myself.

Has the time for War has come?

Is it inevitable?

Do we wait until CyCon picks us off, one by one?

It is becoming clearer to me that CyCon will stop at nothing to take over all of Chiron?

Shortly, should we, the Hive, Drones, do nothing to stop CyCon, will we go the way of the Peace?

I see that even now, CyCon spares no time or expense in hunting down and killing the last of the Peace faction.

Let me ask all of us an open question.

Does, can, Peace pose any threat to CyCon?

The answer, it is clear to all, is no.

Even now, while this Council debates, CyCon is ruthlessly hunting down, killing and assimilating every last Peace citizen.

Has CyCon and Uni become an Axis Of Evil?

I, a free citizen of the Hive, speak for myself.

I, for one, believe that RESISTANCE IS NOT FUTILE.
I believe that I am not alone in this belief.

Re: Sadly The Truth Emerges

I would like to assure Mead, as I reiterate something that we have believed all along. Our war with PEACE is not about us wanting territory, it isn't about us wanting war, wanting to conquer, or even wanting power. It is about our feelings towards the PEACE government, and the fact that we felt, and still feel, wronged by them.

We have never killed a PEACE citizen intentionally. Former PEACE citizens are CPU citizens with all the rights that entails. We run a democracy, we treat all our people as well as we can. However we wish to capture and try the PEACE government. That is why we attacked PEACE, and why we wish peace with everyone other faction. We are not warmongerers, we are no powerhungry, we are not militaristic. We are pursuing a vendetta against the PEACE government.

I have recieved a vote-by-proxy from Foreman Buster of the Drones.
He has voted YEA to the motion.

Therefore, the vote now stands at:
YEA: 2 (Chairman Voltaire of the Human Hive, Foreman Buster of the Free Drones)
NAY: 2 (Mani Alpha-3 of the PUT and Cybernetic Consciousness)

The last vote is up to Captain Hercules of PEACE.

[Nubclear]

I've recieved another proxy vote from PEACE.
They have voted YEA to the Motion.

By a 3 to 2 vote, the motion is passed by the council.

For the record:
3 YEA: Chairman Voltaire of the Human Hive, Foreman Buster of the Freed Drones, and Captain Hercules of PEACE
2 NAY: Mani Alpha-3 of the PUT and the Cybernetic Consciousness

[Hercules]

Yea, just to confirm the Peace vote

Actually, it is a good question. So many side topics, accusations and counters were brought up that one cannot see the trees through the forest anymore.

[Voltaire]

The motion was to officially request of the CPU the immediate cessation of hostilities, the signing of a ceasefire with PEACE, and the entrance into Council supervised negotiations.

I’d like to now officially, on behalf of the Council, request the above from both the CPU and PEACE.

-Chairman Voltaire

[Maniac]

Ah, that sheds new light on this case. So this motion is not per se about the ridiculous proposal to return all previous PEACE bases to their control?

That is our hope that the negotiations will yield such a deal, but the initial motion was for a ceasefire and Council supervised negotiations.

[t_ras]

I think the council should chack (through tass) that a cease fire was implemented by bouth waring factions and set a due date for negotiations report to council.

[FlameFlash]

Typical... the vote finally goes through while I'm sitting on a lot still to say.

The Cap'ns will no doubt select a representative entourage to go to the CPU and discuss the terms of the cease-fire now. My thanks, council members.

[Makahlua]

It's two parts, Maniac:

To the Planetary Council
Motion of Cease Fire and the Return of the PEACE Bases
As presented by the Human Hive

I took it to mean ceasefire immediately, bases to be discussed. And killing defenseless civilians in that pod was just -wrong-

[FlameFlash]

PEACE apologies to the reaction of dear Makahlua, however there were people Maki knew on it, sadly.

We invite a CPU representative envoy and a council overseer now be appointed, appointment of a PEACE envoy is underway.

[Voltaire]

The Human Hive would like to inquire if the CPU will agree to the terms of the Council motion? Since this has not explicitly been stated.
