Members of the Alliance to restore the Republic...
Saw!
Your losses today stem from your leaders' cowardice. Their unwillingness to take decisive action against the Empire. All across the galaxy, your people suffer while the leaders of this (chuckles)... "Rebellion" refuse to act.
(to Mon Mothma) Should I shut it down?
No. I want to speak to him.
(sarcastically) Madame Senator. I'm honored.
What is your business here?
You ignored my warning about the Jalindi relay and paid the price. Now, you have confirmation, yet still, you refuse to destroy it!
So long as our allies in the Senate have hope of a peaceful resolution to this conflict, I will not risk--
If you continue to allow this war to be fought on the Empire's terms -- not yours -- you are going to lose!
I will not be lectured on military strategy by a man who has proven himself a criminal.
The Empire considers both of us criminals. At least I act like one.
You target civilians! Kill those who surrender! Break every law of engagement! If we degrade ourselves to the Empire's level, what will we become?!
THERE she is! That's the leader the Rebellion needs. Where is that fire, that passion, when your people need it most?! I hope, Senator, after you've lost and the Empire reigns over the galaxy unopposed, you will find some comfort in the knowledge that you fought according to the rules.
That's enough.
What are you afraid of, Senator? The truth?
