Today there was a powerful explosion in one of DSRO's offices in Asia.
17 DSRO members killed, one of them is the commander for activities in Asia, and 45 wounded.

DSRO commander for activities in Asia, RIP:

We still don't know if it was a bomb, or a missile attack, but some eye witnesses told that they saw at least one helicopter in the air before the explosion.

Any claims of responsibility?

The nation of Vizzen disavowes any knowledge of this terrorist act.

The Schopenhauerist Republic of Pilot
Statement to The Secular Resistance

We wish to convey our grief in this matter, and we hope there is a speedy investigation in which the perportrators of such a vile crime will be brought to justice.

"Crap." Archer Van Long, Secretary of War, curses.
"It got away. I knew it." Said Emperor Elafo Sanchez.
"Shall we sent humanitarian aid?"
"Yes, authorize it right now. That test missile never should have left the range. I'll have your head for this, Van Long."
"Sorry, sir..."
"Don't tell me sorry. If it happens again, you're gone!"

Elafo Sanchez leaves the room to call The Secular Resistance.

After a short investigation, we found out it was a missile. a pretty big one.
We still don't know who did it, but I must tell him, whoever he is, that he did the job many nations try to do for a long time...
This Commander, which was killed, was one of the 4 planners of the attacks against Euroslavia and TOC (encluding the semi-nuke).
We hope the rest of the planners (3) are not targets as well...

OOC:
I don't say it a lot, but technically, I'm the terrorist here... :D

The following was released this morning from the Emperor's Offices

"We claim any and all responsibility for the missile that struck your nation. It was amidst a test when it was fired and missed our range. We lost contact with it at 0800Z, and without contact had no control. Our deepest regrets.

This was not a terrorist act, merely a test gone wrong. If there is any aid you wish to have, we would be glad to grant it for as long as needed. Once again, our government cordially apologizes for this terrible mistake. About the helicopters, we aren't sure. The missile had the S Number of 8890756D printed on the second tail fin. If you can recover that number, we would be certain that it was us."

Sanchezium, you don't need to worry, it didn't strike our nation, simply because we don't have a nation.
It struck one of our offices in an Asian nation.
Although we're sad to lose such a great mind, we feel happy that this incident wasn't an assassination, but a mistake (after all, he was one of the minds behind the attacks on 2 other nations).

Well, it still hit something - it left the test range and this was the first we've heard of anything being hit by a missile. If you can find that S number, we could know for sure.

If you still need any humanitarian aid, even just for your embassy, we would be glad to send some.

First, we didn't find that number...
Second, thanks for the offer, but... emm... It wasn't exactly an embassy...
It was an office for... How should I put it... "resistance activities" in Aisa.
You see, we don't have a nation, and we don't need one, we're an organization that some nation like to call (although without justification) a "terrorist organization".
That's why we suspected it was an assassination by another nation.

Ben Aeron, chief Terrorist Advisor to the Governor General of Cowes, issues the following statement-

"The Terrorist Monitoring Office of the Commonwealth of Cowes classifies The Secular Resistance as a clear terrorist organization. Cowes will of course not laud an accident by Sanchezium, but is happy to see a branch of this insane terrorist group removed."

Oh look, another nation classifies us as terrorists, how nice.

(btw, you can just write 'DSRO')

The Dominion would like to declare that while this is certainly our style, and one of our favoured methods for dealing with terrorists, we had nothing to do with this particular strike. At this time, we have yet to have any reason to strike at the Secular Resistance. Such a mission, carried out under the auspices of the Dominion Armed Forces would have been executed either by a trio of cruise missiles, or by an AH-67A Attack Helicopter using Hellfire missiles and 2.75mm rockets. Put simply, the Dominion would have used far more ordinance had it been our operation.

Secular Resistance -
If you call yourselves a terrorist nation, and classify your own country as such, we have no choice but to destroy your organization. Thank you.

Another missile hit a DSRO office, this time it was one of the offices in America, and the DSRO commander for activities in America was killed (again, one of the minds behind Euroslavia bombings)...
Sanchezium, it wasn't your missile (not even before), we're sure of that.
Someone is trying to wipe-out the planners of the attacks on Euroslavia and TOC... Who might that be?

I didn't, I said nations call us that way, sorry.
And again, we're not a country.
