To say he was stunned was putting it somewhat mildly.
"I had no idea the situation was that bad. All I knew for certain was that
Admiral Lassiter's son had died, not that there was a sniper attack at his
funeral. What are the extremists after, exactly? And do you know where the
felinids come from, or why they are attacking?"
"The extremists are after a change in Federation policy. They think that the
Federation is soft on non-Federation members, and they wanted to target Admiral
Lasiter as their example. Generally, they are human and anti non-human, but they seem
to tolerate Federation members that are in favor for a strong Federation. Basically
you can classify the Brotherhood and their kind as xenophobic bastards.
The felinids are a different story. From what we have learned they come from a
different galaxy. They are highly advanced, technologically speaking. Socially they
aren't as advanced as their technology, suggesting that their technology was not all
developed, but rather obtained from others. Strangely, they have made use of pawns to
do much of their work. Criminal organizations and the like, to mask their activity.
Analysis of their methods and interrogations have revealed that they are a
militaristic society. They are strying to estabilish a foot hold in this galaxy in
preparation of a full scale invasion."
