El Diablo set for confrontation with SS

New Consul El Diablo has said that the SS must be "reined in" (of course being restrained by leather straps is something many SS are familiar with) and "serve the people not crush them". Diablo said that it was time for the SS to stop being a "rogue state within a state" and instead be properly integrated into the Dino Republic's moral mores.

The SS of course have responded negatively to this, but the SS have for a long time loathed El Diablo even more so than his party leader Jimmy. El Diablo is seen by many SS as a traitor as he failed as Emperor when appointed by Ronald in the late 2090s. Diablo's rivalry with MBH (whom most SS regard as a demi-god) has also soured their opinion of the new Consul.

MBH has said that the SS guarantees Dino security and must be left alone to perform its duties.
  • The DDS have decided to raise the alert status to AMBER. Although no threat has been directed against the DDS the possibility of conflict between the Tarbotians and 7 Sa Sao is thought to be reasonably high and there is the chance of DDS assets or allies being caught in any crossfire.
