We could just be a defacto military Emperor.I really think we oughta find some proper civvie to be the a puppet President and take most of the blame for things and tell other military to STFU and follow Wallesy.
Either way, the moment we publicly step out of the military chain of command we lose all legitimacy in the eyes of any who are not already die hard loyal to us personally.
Civilian government would keep the civies in check, but be answerable to us.That would't be a bad idea. We do need someone to keep the civvies in check. I would suggest something descentralized in order to prevent a separate power base, but strong enough to avoid Rush taking over Alpha Site or something.
Negotiations may have failed, but I'm kind of glad they did. They all deserved to die.No children or elderly remained, as the barbarians choked them and cooked the corpses as food for the other prisoners.
Usury what are the symptoms? Is it the blight or have we cured it with strong antihistamines in this timeline? Would we be aloud to cure it?Most of the earth population recovered quickly but several thousand were still ill, so the offensive stalled out.
Yeah, I had that thought as well.Ah fuck, I knew this would end up badly. Pretty much thought we had no honour.

updated my original post then. It sounds treatable, though it may weaken us in the short term.You can think of the situation as analogous to the European arrival in the Americas, with Earth filling the role of the Americas. Difference is, you have actual scientific immunology instead of dancing medicine men.

Peace? You mean worship.Well, guess things went well in Land of Light. Don't like it, but they started it. Now we can dictate terms and impose a proper peace.
yeah, I have similar thoughts. there's a danger in giving in to paranoia and habitually saying no to the man, thus making him our enemy completely.Hmmmm... Rush. I'm wary of him and his act. On the other hand, I kind of respect the man. He is smart, he has initiative. He gets shit done.
O'Neill is never going to think that. But you have a good point in reminding us that he's there. Providing him a fighting force to rebel against us with could be a problem. We need to send him elsewhere.Don't forget, O'Neil is on the mining planet. We want O'Neil happy and thinking he is on the side of the angels, he is one of our better officers after all.
