No one's perfect.
But when all four empires' atrocities are compared, Gallente seem to have the least of them. Not by much to make a difference for the people suffering, but enough for the other races to take a good hard look at themselves before shouting at the Gallente.

Gallente just run a scorched earth campaign bombarding the entire planet from orbit with dreadnaughts. It was to make sure that the Gallente didn't attack the Caldari's open flank.
The Caldari moved all of their forces to Caldari Prime, there was no defence. If the Caldari had destroyed everything on Caldari Prime, there would be no reason for the Gallente not to attack and destroy everything inside the Caldari state, basically turning the Caldari into ashes.
So yes, there was a very good reason why the Caldari took hostages, otherwise they would just obliderate everything they see.

Again I just want to reiterate this isn't about who did what to who and in return did this the them, who then decided to.... Its a stand alone accusation of guilt at the treatment of POW's within the Gallentean Federation, who above all represent the drive to equality and fair treatment as well as observances of human rights.... something that in recent years has seemingly been lacking in the Federation under Roden's heel. No one should have to go through malnourishment, physical torture, and **** while as POW's yet this happens, I am unaware of any such instances within the Empire, but then again there is much I do not know. All I can do is bring this issue to light and hope that as many people walk away with this in their minds as possible, and that some day one of you will be able to stop this, or save even one person from this kind of brutal treatment. That I agree with.

So uh, how did this thread appear in general discussions? It's fun and all, but it doesn't fit :P

I am an Israeli and I don't see the connection Too many people try to mistakenly label the Empires of New Eden this way. Well I did think of three connections, but that's about it.
1: Was once a thriving society, but was taken down by an invading force. (Ancient Israel vs everyone else in the area)
2: The hebrew were tribal.
3: Used to fight each other, but in the face of a larger foe banded together.
