Declaration of Rebellion

Declaration of Rebellion
Armed revolution against a government must not be undertaken lightly, but we believe it to be necessary in the face of the tyranny of the Republic and Black Imperium in their current Galactic Hegemony. Together Meena Tills and Euphemia Bellamy, with their allies, have subverted the governance of the galaxy, ended planetary sovereignty, and destroyed the economy of numerous worlds leading to untold suffering and death.
Today on Bespin we have struck the first of many blows against the Galactic Hegemony. Once an independent mining colony, the Norad system is now ruled by a puppet who has destroyed the income of the miners and turned this peaceful world into a military factory for the Hegemony. Just one of the many examples of the Hegemony valuing military might over peaceful prosperity, as the unemployed starving in the streets of Corsica will attest.
Since the beginning of the Clone War, the history of the Galaxy is replete with examples of the steps taken to create this Galactic Hegemony:
* You have usurped the power of the Senate by creating a Command Council that has been filled with your puppets.
* You have corrupted the Jedi Order by convincing its members to assume positions of secular authority.
* You have unlawfully violated the sovereignty of independent worlds and your own member systems.
* You have created a military far beyond what is necessary and prudent and then used it to create a police state to preserve your own power.
* You have abused your power and station to usurp the free operation of the galactic economy and its corporations.
We, the free beings of the galaxy, solemnly declare our intentions:
* To fight and oppose you and your forces by any means at our disposal
* To destroy the Command Council and restore authority to the Senate
* To bring about the destruction of the Black Imperium
* To end the rule of Meena Tills, Euphemia Bellamy, and their allies.
* To guarantee the indepence of any world that chooses such a path.
