I've made myself pretty clear when I said people needed just reason to war. Warring over what you call disappointment by disagreeing is not a just cause.

Generalissimo Posted June 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 (edited) Generalissimo takes the podium again while rummaging through several hundred pages of disorganized papers that might be his notes for the conference. “Thanks to everyone who bothered to show up, and stay. It takes a lot of patience to make it through something like this, and for something of this significant the proceedings could take days, I hope everyone still here is in for the long haul. Where do we start? Someone said something about a recap, it sounds like a good place to begin. As most of you probably already know the ‘Greater’ Nordland Reich’s invasion of the Republic of Mariehamm has become the catalyst for a wider war in Europe. Let’s start with this video clip of Scolar Visari’s speech of the ‘Greater’ Nordland Reich’s declaration of war.” black and white archive serial of Scolar Visari’s speech A few months ago, the Nordic Confederacy traveled to Brisbane to discuss the topic of peace. This conferenced involved not only us, but ComIntern as well. Our goal was simple: Try to advert the largest, most destructive war in the history of the world between two great super powers. Indeed, at that conference we agreed to the following:1. Reinstatement of Slavorussia with the exception of Novak and Eastern Reich land 2. Incorporation of the Uberstein mansion in RoM 3. Germany will rebuild said mansion 4. Mandatory NAP I'd like to point out the following main points: 2. Incorporation of the Uberstein mansion in RoM 3. Germany will rebuild said mansion Indeed, we agreed to right the wrongs, in which we did by seizing the mansion of the Baron. Yet, the Republic of Mariehamm still marches aggressively towards war. On a daily basis, our intelligence systems in the form of ELINT, SAR and other devices are reporting continuous rumblings at the border. Obviously, the Baron doesn't appreciate a peaceful mean to solutions and instead would rather march towards war. I will pass over the insulting attacks made by this so-called President against me. That he calls me a gangster is uninteresting. After all, this expression was not coined in Nordland but in Mariehamm, no doubt because such gangsters are lacking here. Apart from this, I cannot be insulted by Uberstein for I consider him mad as the politicians who drove Europa to ruin in the 1940s. I don't need to mention what this man has done for years in the same way against other powers. First he incites war then falsifies the causes, then odiously wraps himself in a cloak of hypocrisy and slowly but surely leads mankind to war, not without calling God to witness the honesty of his attack-in the approved manner of an old Freemason. I think you have all found it a relief that now, at last, one State has been the first to take the step of protest against his historically unique and shame less ill-treatment of truth, and of right-which protest this man has desired and about which he cannot complain. The fact that Greater Nordic Government, which has been negotiating for years with this man [ Baron Uberstein ], has at last become tired of being mocked by him in such an unworthy way, fills us all, the European people, and all other decent people in the world, with deep satisfaction. The Greater Nordic Reich have been finally compelled, in view of this, and in loyalty to the people of Europa, to carry on the struggle against the Republic of Mariehamm.

The GNR gave them the opportunity to end their misery and they shunned it. If this is some.. heart-felt moral war against ethnic consolidation instead of basing the Cassus Belli on the Mariehamm situation.. I suspect its only a few years behind schedule."

The Imperator paused for breath before starting again. "No, why would you choose to make your stand now when the vast majority of Europe, her people, and her resources are already under Nordic Control?

mykep Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 General, noone has exchanged nuclear weapons yet. Hopefully it will be kept that way. If not, intervention plus nuclear warfare will lead to the world's doom once again. I'm afraid that if that were to happen, Europe alone will not be the target, but other continents as well.
