Keith Remadra, former chief advisor to the UNP Security Council on Clone affairs The "leak" detailing HCS plans to withdraw 2 legions from an already stretched HCS-E i find suspicious. It just doesn't seem right to me which is why i doubt its true, though the HCS are looking for further cost savings.
So why this "leak"? Its no secret that Oojok and Benito distrust each other though Oojok has said he is happy to rule the empire in partnership (especially as his "half" is more like 70%). I am of the opinion the "leak" was a deliberate attempt to anger Benito by Oojok's camp to see how he would react.
If thats true then why? Is Oojok planning to test Benito in other ways? Is he out to get rid of Benito once and for all? I can't see the latter as the last thing the Clone Star Empire needs right now is a civil war but then again rationality sometimes is the first casualty when it comes to internal power struggles...
