>"The galaxy, Mr. Watson. The Council is not large, but it is full of
colorful >personalities. The current chair of the Council is Aqualish
ambassador T'Kresh. >Also on the Council are representatives from the
Romulans, Klingons, >Cardassians, and the Federation. The Venasian
representative is, or rather was, >Ambassador D'amondra. A replacement
Venasian Representative has not yet >been appointed.
>The current issues, or rather our first issue, is the joint offer of a
homeworld for >the Venasians. The planet that the Federation has found was
offered jointly by >the Council. The Venasians have rejected the planet
because of a finding of >Lapizine, which is toxic to them. The Starfleet
surveys have shone no indication >of any harmful agent, lapizine or
otherwise, on the planet. While the Council is >suspicious of the Venasian
findings, a new survey was commissioned with >scientists from all Council
members. The Federation will not have >representatives on the survey,
however, the Commander of the Starfleet >contingent on the planet has been
directed to cooperate fully with the new survey >team.
"Why would the Venasians lie about this? To stand out as a bully against the
Council?"
"The motives of the Venasians are highly suspect at this point. My assumption is
that since General A'amon's grasp on power is fresh, and tenuous to a degree, it may
be a ploy to turn the populous against outsiders and support to him and his regime.",
she said as it it were obvious. Typical Tellerite...
"I am scheduled to meet with President Montgomery and Admiral Lasiter along
>with another member of the Council regarding the sniper attack and
explosion on >Spacedock. As the new representative, that task will fall to
you."
"Joy....what do we know of the situation at this time? Casualties besides
Commander M'rrenn?"
"Little more than what has been published in the news media. There were a
handfull of casualities in each attack, and several more were injured. As of yet
both are still under investigation."

"When is our meeting?"
"The meeting is set for 0940 hours at UFP Complex in the President's office. Admiral
Lasiter may or may not be present, I am still waiting on a response from his office."

"Pick battles big enough to matter, yet small enough to win."
