Israel can fabricate a reason to declare war.

 

[Double A]

Yes... but I fail to see how that's relevant to the current topic.

 

[Mathalamus]

i can fabricate a reason for other nations to use for a reason to declare war. however i charge 50 LPs for that.

 

[Double A]

I can pull dozens out of my ass. All of them are RP related.

I'm talking about an actual reason. Like you insulted me to my face. Or you're threatening me with WMD's. THOSE are reasons. Not "You have a different religion than me, DIE!" or "Down with the bourgeois, capitalist pig-dog!!"

 

[Mathalamus]

i maintain that Religion is a viable reason for war. Spain is the result of 7 centuries of religious wars you know?

 

[Double A]

Yes. I'm sure the Jews are very happy about that. Also, the Moors were kind of ACTIVELY HOSTILE. Whenever religion and politics mix, people die.

Please remind me why you're friends with the Jews, being Catholic and all.

 

[Mathalamus]

Religion does not, and will not, factor into relationships (unless you hate each-other). Israel happened to treat us fine, so we treat them fine.

 

[Double A]

And they treat us like worms, despite being unprovoked.

I did see the edit. I only gave you four claims, sent the extra XP to Khitan (marked in stats) and because you ended up with the Refugees, you still got 5 territories this turn.

What did I miss?

Territorial exchange. I should get two of the Khitans' territory and they should get one of mine. See this map:

The SFRJ wishes the best for its allies and will only support a peace where Double A loses at least 1 province and declares defeat

 

[Double A]

Oh, gee, thanks.

It seems like the entire global community hates me for trying to defend my land for no explicable reason, with one obvious exception.

 

[Mathalamus]

the Spanish Empire applauds the SFRJ for making their opinion public. and we share the same sentiment.

 

[Double A]

I'm gonna ask it one more time before I metagame you for all eternity.

WHAT. DID. I. DO?

 

[Mathalamus]

you refused to hand over the territories he... well, demanded.

even *I* would have handed it over, and i usually do not bend over to people. i just know that i should never piss off a fundamentalist without reason. i can always strike back later with enough resources.

 

[Double A]

Math, have you ever read If You Give a Mouse a Cookie? Or heard of that time when Neville Chamberlain appeased Adolph Hitler?

 

[Mathalamus]

Math, have you ever read If You Give a Mouse a Cookie? Or heard of that time when Neville Chamberlain appeased Adolph Hitler?

yes for the second one, but two years worth of experience with a fundamentalist Christian lead me to adopt that attitude. i find appeasing your enemy works while you build up your own military and resources.

 

[Double A]

*sigh*

If you give a mouse a cookie, he's gonna want some milk. If you give Hitler a country, he's gonna want another. And if you give Dommy a territory, he's gonna want another.

 

[Mathalamus]

well fo course he will want another... but by the time he gets around to requesting it, you'll be much better prepared to resist.

 

[NedimNapoleon]

The SFRJ supports them cuz we have an allaince, and cuz we see a better partner with them, an aggressive bulldog that will fight anywhere and will always help

An Italian citizen in Sicily has noted that there used to be a lot more ships, mainly transport ones, and a huge increase of Army personnel in the same province was also reported. the Emperor stated that it is done for the security of Spain. the war in the East mederanean is concerning the citizens there.
