A Battle Unseen

A Crack.

Subject; Internal Memo to ALL Internal Security Committee members.
----------------------------
The ongoing instability plaguing the country has shown no signs of ending. Fortunately, it has not yet become violent. But something must change. As it stands, the Democratic Opposition is going to get louder, bolder and more demanding, the longer the Custodian Tsundue remains in power. The ruling of the Supreme Revolutionary Court will ultimately determine how far this country can stretch.

Time and time again, the Custodian has frequently ignored and outright rejected our proposals. From canceling our investigation on Public Security to ignoring our concerns regarding storming into Lenakha and arresting students, the Custodian has elected to take a more aggressive approach to breaking up the Democratic Opposition. It is not unfair to assume that a crackdown may be looming. As such, this internal memo is aimed at all individuals within the Internal Security Committee, and has been authorized by the Director of the Internal Security Committee.

While these are unprecedented times, and the Supreme Revolutionary Court is still debating the legality of the New Democracy Act, all Internal Security Agents, staffers, and individuals are instructed to delay their orders and assignments for as long as possible. Until the Court properly rules the NDA as legal or not, Internal Security can not, and will not operate under illegal pretenses. An outright mutiny is out of the question. Any blatantly illegal orders received from the Custodian are to be ignored if possible and put through rounds of bureaucracy if necessary. While the Internal Security Committee is thoroughly devoted to the security of the Revolution, it is perhaps time to consider where our allegiances stand, and whether the Custodian has the best vision for Xsampa. Outright contact with the Democratic Opposition is currently ill-advised and the Director will not assume any responsibility for rogue actors, nor will persecution of rogue actors occur. All individuals are simply instructed to thoroughly review all orders received, reaffirm whether the order is rooted in a legal basis or not, and act within the confines of what is legal. Above all, illegal orders must be rejected and if that is not possible, delayed and executed in a poor and sloppy manner. 

This memo is to remain in effect until the Supreme Revolutionary Court rules on the NDA in April. As the world begins adjusting to this crisis, we must remember that we serve the people. Not ego's.
