The Krønberger interstellar transport, the Vosta Vento (the Tailwind), filled with business people and tourists from several planets was destroyed by L'Dereau,  a militant faction of the Hassurah.  The Joint Chiefs have advised "a proportional retaliation" by bombing military-industrial targets on an outlying moon, and this Office concurred.  Princino Mariah, however, took this as a personal attack, and demanded retaliation against population centers which would surely result in the deaths of thousands, including civilians.  We spent three days talking Princino Mariah out of this line of action, explaining how it could easily lead to an all out war, and possibly shift interstellar sympathy to the Hassurah.

In a sting operation, Federal Investigators caught two members of Parliament, (Krønbergers call them DP's for Dramatis Personae.  The DP's have often lobbied for some other phrase, but I maintain that if I have to put up with Supercilious Plenipotentiary, they can damn well deal with Dramatis Personae) selling their influence.  Firearms manufacturers face bribery charges.

A Kentauran Christian group known as Fokusigi Sur la Familio (English: Family Focus), continues to demand the resignation of Okul-Lupo (English: Eyes of the Wolf), the Deputy Chief of Staff who was caught with his pants down in a popular pub in Clarksville.  Okul-Lupo has issued a public apology, with his wife standing firmly at his side.  "I have sinned in my heart," Sinjoro Lupo was quoted as saying.  His wife, StelaKorvo (English: Star Raven) sported a five carat diamond on her hand during the press conference.
