Ancient and Holy Terra wrote:To the government of the Rogue State of Tahar Joblis,
As you are no doubt aware, there is considerable international dismay concerning the situation developing in your nation. While I cannot speak for any other party, there is widespread discontent in Ancient Terra over the riots in Tahar Joblis, especially given the danger posed to Ancient Terran citizens and possessions. The events broadcast by ATNN only increased the volume of calls for the Ancient Terran government to intervene in the situation.
While I admit that Ancient Terra rarely sees eye-to-eye with the Rogue State, there is no doubt that this unrest has escalated far more quickly than expected. The commander of the Terran Marine Embassy Detachment in Taharasopolissa has stated to me, directly, that the situation is entirely out of control and neither his detachment nor the TJGA can guarantee any semblance of safety. Moreover, we have obtained evidence of significant activity at the Sevasport Naval Base, although smoke over the city is impairing many of our satellites.
I have been placed in charge of a joint civilian/Self-Defense Forces operation, charged with extracting Ancient Terran citizens and sensitive materials from Tahar Joblis as soon as possible. A number of our naval assets are in the general vicinity, able to quickly implement contingency plans for an evacuation. We have a clear duty to intervene if the safety of our people is threatened in any way, but to do so I require the consent of your government.
As a show of good faith, and over the objections of my colleagues, I offer you this bit of insight: while the government of Ancient Terra would prefer for capitalism to take hold in your region, the present situation is no way to effect change. There are already calls for a multinational task force to patrol the waters off of Tahar Joblis, but with the Arsenal of Seva outside of your control, this represents nothing short of a powder keg waiting to explode.
In essence, while this offer will be denied and immediately rescinded if ever revealed to the public, in exchange for your authorizing an evacuation effort in Tahar Joblis, the relevant government elements of the Republic of Ancient Terra are willing to support a Tahar Joblissan operation to retake the breakaway province of Tahar Sevas. Specifically, we desire to neutralize the threat posed to international sea lanes by the nascent Sevan National Force.

A throng of Tahar Joblissans filled the square. Most were men. Many wore green and black armbands, showing a black sun with a green halo. A short bald man, trim, with a
Fu Manchu mustache, stood on top of an upended boat, holding a megaphone.

"We stood all alone a year ago, and to many parties it seemed that our account was closed, we were finished. But the National Freedom Party lives! And we - not some pusillanimous army - will restore freedom to Taharasopolissa! Purge the foreigner! Purge the bank! Purge all those who would enslave us! Democracy cannot defend us in such a time - only the might of the Tahar Joblissan arm and the brilliant sun of a rising new government!"

It is unclear whether or not we will be able to obtain permission for military action within Seva proper or against the breakaway government in Sevasport; however, we have authorization to undertake an operation to retake the Arsenal of Sevasport and remove from there the war-materiel that makes the so-called Armed Republic of Tahar Sevas a danger to national and global security.
<SNIP>
Matters are indeed rapidly deteriorating in the capital. We cannot insure continued security of even the inner city for much longer; the Assembly of Ships has already relocated to Jonatholissa to continue its proceedings there. The House of Cities was bombed yesterday and is currently out of session. The Conclave of Isles continues to meet within the inner city, however, but it is not clear how long this will last.

DIPLOMATIC CODE TER-5J-07082010Official Communiqué from the Mimana Imperial Republic of Ancient Terra
Joint Communiqué
Ministry of Defense - Ministry of Foreign Affairs
From: The Desk of Lord Admiral Yamato Ishida, Chief of Staff of the Joint Staff Office - (Acting) Minister of Defense - TMSDF -
Intended Recipient(s): First Admiral Melina Handler-Weierstrass
Subject: Notification
Body of Message Follows:
First Admiral, I appreciate your honesty in this regard, and assure you that we share a common goal. As you yourself have said, the situation is rapidly deteriorating. Forward-deployed reconnaissance elements from Expeditionary Strike Group 8 witnessed the execution of three Terran citizens in Stromsveldt Square, along with their Tahar Joblissan assistants and four other unknown foreigners. I have no doubt that images of their deaths will be broadcast far and wide, as soon as one of those animals gets their hands on an internet connection.
Expeditionary Strike Group 8, centered around LHDN-7 (ATN Second Summer), is currently 440 km east of Taharasopolissa and is prepared to begin the evacuation within the hour. We had hoped to be closer to shore before launching the operation, but the events of this morning demand no more delays. Eight MH-53K helicopters will launch, escorted by a small number of AH-1s and MH-60s. Approximately 120 km from Taharasopolissa, they will be met and refueled by three MC-130W “Combat Spear” aircraft.
The MC-130Ws will then divert to Thaylru Rock Air Base. The Terran International Cooperation Agency (TICA) has donated the use of two C-10 Minotaur heavy lifters, which are already en route to Thaylru Rock and will be readied for an immediate departure.
The helicopters will proceed to the Terran Embassy and effect an evacuation of the ~400 Terran citizens at that compound, while TGSDF soldiers will provide security for the evacuation and ensure the destruction of sensitive materials. The MH-53Ks will then proceed to Thaylru Rock Air Base, where the evacuees will be transferred aboard the C-10s and airlifted out of Tahar Joblis. The evacuation helicopters, escorted by the MC-130s, will proceed west to an intended rendezvous and recovery with Amphibious Ready Group 8.
If all goes as planned, our helicopters will be back aboard LHDN-7 within 10 hours, at which point we can turn our attention towards fulfilling our end of the bargain. Additional fleet assets are already moving into the area, and Joint Special Forces Group Command is currently being briefed on the situation. Vice Admiral Inoue has transferred her flag to ATN Vao to personally direct any further operations, and is scheduled to arrive within the next three days.
Rear Admiral Ryuichi Kamiyama, Commanding Officer ESG 8, is aboard ATN Second Summer and has local command of the operation. He has communicated that he intends to commence Operation Tenka as soon as possible, to ensure that the critical elements of this mission take place under cover of darkness. All operational assets have been explicitly informed that official Tahar Joblissan requests are to be complied with immediately.
I hope that, come this time tomorrow, we can celebrate a successful operation and turn our attention towards other matters.
Sincerely,
- Lord Admiral Yamato Ishida, Chief of Staff of the Joint Staff Office - (Acting) Minister of Defense - TMSDF -
