Jaina probably broke more dalaranian laws with the purge anyway, with the whole “Not asking the council before commensing a purge of a political group without actually launching an investigation and arresting people who obviously had nothing to do with it”
The purge probably wouldn’t have been as bloody if the silver covenant were involved, but still, under any legal system she would probably be arrested.
some Silver Covenant opportunists took the chance to rob, attack, and otherwise harass the civilians of their political rivals.
Please point out where Varessa and the Silver Covenant faced CONSEQUENCES for their actions.
Seriously i don’t get how you can expell an entire population for the crimes of one guy. Policing them more i can get, but full blown mass arrest?
Her dead husband by the hands of the Horde.
They did not expell them. They arrested them to figure out who the traitors were. They released them afterwards but they refused to return.
Aethas was found to be guilty and was exiled from the city.
Shouldn’t they be? They’re either complicit in the theft of the bell or too incompetent to reign in their own members. Just going “oh that wasn’t us” isn’t really good enough.
Wait, aethas is now a poor victim? but he saw the situation and did nothing if you want to blame someone blame aethas for not doing his work.
The investigation was on course. they didn’t know who was traitor or not. being arrested was part of the investigation.
There was no other choice.
I fail to see how the man who sells ink to people did to deserve being arrested. He was not in an authoritative position.
If he attacked Jaina then he died for it. That simple.
The guy who helped them smuggle the bell wasn’t a high ranking member either. Would you trust them after they proved any of them could be a spy or saboteur?
As a side note, apparently Aethas had no real part in the stealing of the Bell. There was supposedly an interview where they stated there was a small bit of context cut, where he just sort of happens across the theft during the act (and thus knew about it).
Its sort of a bummer that it didn’t make it in game, considering it really did paint a different picture of the choice he had to make (either betray Garrosh, and let his people face Garrosh’s wrath; or keep the theft a secret, and let his people face the wrath of Jaina). He placed his bets on Jaina’s wrath being the lesser of two evils (and tbh … I’m uncertain as to whether we’ll ever find out if his decision was the correct one).
On the surface, that is fair, but if you are part of a company that stole a nuclear bomb, everyone is going down to the station for questioning. Especially if your company had already built and detonated an earlier nuke.
Every single last Sunreaver…really? Children and shopkeepers and butchers and bakers…really?
Oh? So killing and throwing the Sunreavers out of their homes is justified because one of them might be a spy or saboteur?
I mean there was, it’s called interviewing the populace, putting up more guards in sunreaver heavy sections of the city, oh, and actually telling the populace what was going on. Only leaders we universally agree are terrible IRL would do that.
Sunreavers are a political party. Not a race.
Considering they made a weapon of mass destruction and sabotaged the Alliance by using their position in Dalaran?
Yes. Yes absolutely. Especially when these spies can teleport out if you give them warning.
And??? Am I missing something? Its ok because it wasint racism?
Yes, it would bve closer to arresting the families of everyone registrered as either a republican or democrat.
Why not? Look at the rogue class hall, a mundane career doesn’t mean you can’t be a spy.
The killing part was overkill(if it actually happened, I don’t remember), I can’t argue with that. They proved themselves untrustworthy so at the very least detaining them until they sort out that nonsense isn’t unjustified.
Man thats crazy.
More like detained for questioning. All those arrested were eventually let go after being cleared.
If you attack a police officer you tend to get shot.
