| Message | OOC: "It is estimated that only 5 civilians have died, mainly Luthori government civil workers who were attacked as the group was moving out of the area from a work site, where a new water treatment plant was to be built. Only about 4 police officers were killed, 2 from gun shots and 3 from a bomb that went off. " Hint the mainly Luthori civil workers and police being killed. I did say about 100 were injured, but only Luthorians were killed, unless this man died in the hospital. |

| Message | OOC: No offense if it wasn't intended, but you're Youk Telegraph piece seemed a lot like a very biased Luthori account of the day. All Beiteynu would see is pictures of Luthori soldiers of unarmed protesters, and even if nobody did in fact die, which we would of course dispute, a resistance group would certainly capitalise on the negative sentiment brought on from that Luthori brutality as much as it could. If that means lying then calling you liars, then thats definetely what they would do. |

| Message | OOC: Yeah reading you're next one; "Jewish Rebel State?" I have no objection to you making it heavily biased like that (thats how I figured it would be written) but I object to you claiming it is the definitive word on what happens in the Kingdom of Yishalem. |

| Message | OOC: Sorry for the triple post but I doubt you'd be bringing in workers from Luthori to work as civil servants. More likely they'd be Jewish 'collaborators', wouldn't they? You'd know better than me, I would just assume, in the absence of any ethnic cleansing policy that you'd be employnig locals. |

| Message | It is a massive Empire, and the people of Luthori knowhow to work it the best. |
