Emperor Oojok of the Clone Star Empire has denounced the DDS as a "past-it bunch of war mongers" in the light of news the DDS are to boost the size of their fleet. Oojok said the DDS were "the past" and were trying to cling onto their past glories by spending greater sums on their fleet and trying to intimidate the Clones who he claimed were peace loving and democratic.
"It is a sign of a decaying regime that increased military spending is used as a sticking plaster over a crumbling edifice." Oojok sneered. "The DDS is dying, they are fading into irrelevance. The future belongs to freedom loving peoples like the Clones and Rectoids!"
