The last CAIN operation of any significance was the destruction and refounding of Union of the Fascist Reich almost 3 months ago, the destruction was headed up by SPSF General Roavin and the refound by our boy Tim here. In the wake of this would anyone like to guess what Europeia published in their capacities as the "hosts" of CAIN?

Quote:Europeia has achieved an important victory over the Nazis. As part of the Coalition Against the Ideology of Nazism (CAIN) and our continued commitment against Nazism in NationStates, our regional military the Europeian Republican Navy has aided in the refounding of the Nazi region Union of the Fascist Reich (UFR). "The ERN provided critical numbers to the CAIN operation, assissting in the build up of influence and allowing the operation to succeed that much faster" Grand Admiral Kylia Quilor said. UFR had been targeting other regions for takeovers prior to the region becoming founderless. Utilizing hidden sleepers in the region, the forces of CAIN refounded the region and proved how futile it was for the Nazis to try to plan operations.

The victory saw cooperation across a wide range of CAIN signatories. Raider, communist, defender, independent and non-aligned military forces worked together to crush any hopes the Nazis may have had in retaining the region. It was also an important victory for CAIN since it demonstrated that the coalition could still be effective after the debate over structural reforms saw key regions leave. "This operation shows CAIN's continued perserverance to fight Nazism within NationStates. We are still militarily strong and active despite some recent losses within our membership", President Writinglegend said. By putting aside ideological differences and working together against the UFR, Europeia and other CAIN signatories have clearly demonstrated how the coalition can still be an effective tool against Nazism in NationStates.

CAIN is an ineffective bureaucratic morass that exists to increase the standing and influence of Europeia to no benefit to any other signatories. There were a few good ops last Fall and Winter, but those were almost a year ago now. The greatest service CAIN provided to the anti Nazi cause in NationStates is letting us realize that the bureaucratic treaty model for cooperating on something we all agree on is an unnecessary anchor that drags down real anti Nazi action. Thankfully we have far superior means of cooperation like Ruining Nazi Sandcastles that accomplish everything CAIN can and has not.

The North Pacific left CAIN without incident some months ago, if the people of The South Pacific desire it then we can and should do the same.
