Thalessaboran Leaders Respond to Bendhermongese Report

We have been wrongfully attacked by Bendhermong, and now Bendhermongese leaders are trying to blame us for being attacked.  Our military buildup was not aggressive; it was merely to have some defensive force.  Since all other nations - including Bendhermong - have larger armies than ours, we felt that some buildup was justified.  Bendhermong's recent invasion has proved this necessity and shown that we cannot trust our neighbors' good intentions.

If Bendhermong has specific grievances they would like us to redress, they could have given us some workable deal.  We are still willing to talk as long as they are reasonable in their requests.

Chief of Staff of Bendhermong Makes a Statement

"We did not hastily declare war against our neighbor, Thalessaboran.  However, after meeting with many within Thalessaboran's government, both in their industrial and military sector and with the head of state, we have concluded that the military buildup of Thalessaboran seeing that they have no enemy to fear was just cause for invasion.  Their only possible target, despite their claims, is Bendhermong. We deem it in the national security of Bendhermong to remove this potent threat from our midst.  It is true that war was once rumored months prior, but this subsided as Bendhermong became assured of Thalessaboran's peaceful intent. Now that Thalessaboran's intentions are to challenge us, we took the best step for eventual peace in the region."
