Furonese attack on Mandalore

[Nagato the Great]

This press statement has been released by Jack Carter, premier of Mandalore, to the world.

"Today, Furon made a totally uncalled for attack on Mandalore by firing 40 cruise missiles at us. Many were shot down, but some hit their targets, resulting in mass civilian casualties. They could not have been targeting anything but civilians, as Mandalore doesn't have an army. This is a sad day, and I request that the world review its treaties with a monster like Furon. The missiles were launched after Furon encouraged an argument between itself and Mandalore. It launched one missile, which it claimed had been launched 'without orders', a petty excuse. The missile was shot down, and we notified the Furonese of this, as well as a warning. They responded by firing the 40 missiles and killing many civilians.

"Do you have any proof that these missiles were from Furon?"

[Nagato the Great]

"They said they launched them, what more proof is there?"

[loannes]

"Meh."

"They said they launched them, what more proof is there?"

"If they came from Furon, then how did they not pass through Novakian airspace?"

[Sargun II]

"They said they launched them, what more proof is there?"

"I did not ask whether or not you made up unprovable stories. We asked if you could prove that they are from Furon."

[Nagato the Great]

"It should also be known that UMS and Nod diplomats were present in the capital at the time, and that had some of the missiles not been shot down, they too would have been killed."

[Nagato the Great]

Mandalore continues to show its ignorance. Not only are we Furions, of the nation Furon, we never ordered a missile attack on a civilian directly. Our missiles were aimed at military ports and centers, as well as the capital.

Please, more propaganda. We'd love to disprove it.

"We have no military ports and centers. So obviously you couldn't have been pointing them at those.

Please, more propaganda, we'd love to disprove it."

"That's not proof that Furon shot them. That's proof that UMS and Nod diplomats were present in the capital at the time, and that had some of the missiles not been shot down, they too would have been killed."

"I'm sorry, what are you responding to?"

[SpacingOutMan]

An official UMS statement has been issued. Mandalore, under its land pact agreement with Nod and the UMS, cannot have any military infrastructure or standing army because of it being in a DMZ zone. So any missile attacks on military ports is impossible, therefore they are targeting civilian positions.

"Well, they released a public statement, saying they launched the missiles. We had an argument with them, which was the motivation. What more proof would you like? Would you maybe like us to go back in time to see if they are Furonese missiles?"

"We were responding to the fallacious statement by Furon that htey were targeting military centres. We don't have a military."

"We were responding to the fallacious statement by Furon that htey were targeting military centres. We don't have a military."

"Right, because it's totally unheard of that foreign or domestic threats can hack into communications systems and make it seem that the infiltrated nation fired a !@#$load of missiles."

"Perhaps your military is simply hiding among the civilian populace. It would not be the first time extremists and radicals have done so."

So you are under the impression that in a couple of hours, a Mandalorian made his way halfway across the world into Furon just to fire missiles back at his homeland. That is completely absurd."

"Again, we have no military. We produce no arms. We import no arms. Do you think we have a secret military that fights with rocks and sticks?"

[SpacingOutMan]

"Perhaps your military is simply hiding among the civilian populace. It would not be the first time extremists and radicals have done so."

Those aren't military ports and centers. Those would be localized radical settlements, like a single apartment. Forty missiles to take out localized radical settlements is grasping at less than straws, and it is an inherent attack on civilians who are not militarized in the least bit. Trust us, we have been monitoring the mobilization of Mandalore 'military' for a while now and we have picked up nothing in regards to extremist activities in anywhere but the south-western most sector where much of the East African War between the UMS and Nod took place.

"And yet there is no admittance other than that Furon admits that there was an accident involving a single missile. For all anybody could know, this was an organized attack by underground, well-trained bombers. Neither Rebel Army or Novakian satellite or monitoring systems caught any cruise missiles sailing through their territory, and the only other way it could have came through is your territory. Obviously they were not shot down through there, so that these cruise missiles even came from Furon is under doubt."

OOC: I feel like a dick

"Perhaps the Novak or RA satellites are not working then. Where else do you suppose these missiles originated from? We've hardly had contact with anyone outside of Africa."

OOC: lol

[SpacingOutMan]

OOC: It's fun, isn't it? Makes it a helluva lot more entertaining.

IC:

They didn't come through the United Mechodamian States and any inference that were involved and risk the life of our Grand Patriarch is absurd. We give a summed apology to a possible premature accusation of Furon, but should any evidence arise that Furon was involved, we will seek full diplomatic retribution for the deaths of citizens. That goes for any nation involved in this matter.

[Nagato the Great]

"I would like to know then, who would want to do it? Besides Furon, no one has motivation to do it."

[Sargun II]

"I would like to know then, who would want to do it? Besides Furon, no one has motivation to do it."

"Many people have motivation. Any enemy of Furon wishing to frame them for the matter. Perhaps they have spies in Furon monitoring communications. Perhaps your own private communications systems were compromised."

"Who would want to kill hundreds of innocent people...just because of a grudge that doesn't involve us? And who are these people that have motivation? I request an investigation, then, of these nations."

[Minilla Island]

"It is a sad day. Anytime a nation attacks an unarmed entity, it is not just an act of cowardice, but just plain murder. But, knowing who Furon shares its diplomatic bed with, I am not at all surprised."

"Anything that can be done for Mandalore, whether it be militarily or economically, will be done for her. All she needs to do is contact us."

[Nagato the Great]

"We thank Minilla Island for its offer, but we politely decline, there is no need for aid at the moment."
