Kaplan Takes Down Amudim in Nightly Interview
"Tel Bira does not speak for all Yeudis", says AYIC director

Robert Kaplan appears on Kaliburg Tonight to address Tel Biran smears

"Tel Bira can say what it wants, and it usually does," said Robert Kaplan, director of the Anantonese Yeudi Interests' Committee on popular Channel 1 News nightly Kaliburg Tonight. "They have a warped view of the world where they still control all Yeudi minds, which does not comport with reality. But Tel Bira does not speak for all Yeudis." Kaplan took exception to the mischaracterization of Kalistan's positions by Tel Biran and Schlomberg bureaucrats, printed in Schlomberg Chronicle late last month. "Kalistan has repeatedly tried to keep Tel Bira, and in fact, Amudim as a whole, onside, but the alliance of Amudim with MATO has fundamentally further ruptured any possibility of good relations between Kalistan and the Northern Majatran States, and has further alienated Kalistani Yeudis from those living in the homeland."

Kaplan said Tel Bira can maintain the facade that it is not the financial center of northern Majatra and therefore the related MATO alliance if it wishes. "We have no way of knowing except their word, which is not valued very highly on this side of the world at any rate," said Kaplan. He said that he believes the more important outstanding issue still remains on the table. "We are still waiting for a report which shows the complicity of former Beiteynu in the crimes of the Kundrati Legion last century to be issued, a report that was merely hinted at close to a decade ago. Until that nation admits its part in the development of weaponry that was used to murder tens of thousands of sleeping Kalistanis and its coddling of the Legionary regime as they embarked on their genocidal self immolation arc, Kalistan and Amudim will likely never be friendly at all, let alone cooperative."

Kaplan cited a 5689 report where the notorious Amudim-based Sato corporation pressured Tel Bira to refused to declassify a report which outlined Beiteynese participation and direction of the Kundrati Missile program which was eventually directed against Kalistan. "Apparently, they are so independent that Tel Bira to this date remains in complete compliance with the requests of the Missile Defense Industry on the issue of suppressing evidence of Beiteynese complicity, even though Tel Bira said subsequently that they have evidence of cooperation." said Kaplan

Kaplan said he had no position on Tel Bira's membership in NAM. "I'm not in the Foreign Ministry, so I won't speak about that. Tel Bira staying in NAM or leaving it is their own choice. If they wish to be associated with a movement in principle which declares that non-alignment is better than bowing to an foreign imperialist geopolitical master, I would imagine that they would be better off for it. And I realize that Tel Bira is at least nominally 'independent' of Amudim and as such is not a member of MATO itself, but let's not split hairs here, because Tel Biran economic liberalism is wide open to Amudim's benefit. That's not the real issue though. The real issue is that Amudim still bears responsibility for enabling the Legion, their atrocities, and specifically their atrocious chemical weapons attacks on Kaliburg, Port Swedes and Eshar which killed thousand of Yeudis in Kalistan. They have Yeudi blood on their hands."

According to Kaplan, Beiteynu, who now calls itself Amudim, covered up for the Legion: "They lied publicly on behalf of the Kundrati Legion, and they discredited Kalistan when we pointed out the historical fact of Legionary atrocities. Back then Tel Bira played an important role in the affairs of Beiteynu: They aren't exempt from the guilt just because they are nominally independent now, though still closely linked to Amudim. And now they and all of Amudim, are still refusing to take any responsibility for their actions, let alone take any steps to make it right with our people. The whole nation bears that responsibility, and if Tel Bira ever had the slightest interest in remaining friendly with Kalistan, they would have already told the world the all that they know but still supress, in explicit spite of Yishelem's criminal objections."

Kaplan also responded to Shlomberg's claims that Vamaj is a "Yeudi-backed global supply network" designed to exploit petroleum and sell it world wide. "First of all, not all Yeudis world wide support Vamaj," he said. "Let me be clear: This is not a company by Yeudis for Yeudis. It is a Homelands operation which large global oil players happen to participate in. Luthori for example has a seat at the table. Nadiya still has a seat at the table. But it primarily benefits Yeudi interests in former Beiteynu. It certainly does not enrich Yeudis globally. And to claim otherwise is simply ridiculous."

Clearly, Kaplan said, Amudim and MATO are behind the Luthorian bid for New Englian Oil exploitation. "They like polluting the earth. What can I say? But all of this is a sideshow. What we need from Amudim, and from all those city states there is a mea culpa and an apology for the murder of Kalistanis including Kalistani Yeudis, on the night of August 11th 5612. That anniversary is coming up for Kalistan. It was as devastating to our nation as the Bargas Chenpo was for Xsampa, and for many of the same reasons. Beiteynu was behind BOTH events. And we have been waiting for one hundred years for that nation to admit its role in those attacks, as well as its part in elevating the Legion and in giving other nations cover to continue to trade with it in violation of sanctions which led to a significant war and devastation in Artania for decades. Those event are at the feet of Beiteynu and no amount of renaming your country will help wash that nation clean of its crimes. Only actual sincere, and good faith apology will allow healing to begin. Until then, Amudim and everyone associated with it will simply be poison to Kalistani Yeudis."

Kaplan said he will join Her Imperial Majesty for a memorial ceremony this August as Kalistan marks the 100 year anniversary of the murder of more than 40,000 Kalistanis while they slept with Beiteynese designed and supplied ballistic missiles. "And mending of fences between our two states MUST begin in Amudim, and it must begin with a formal apology," said Kaplan. "They are monsters for not doing this before now."
