[QUOTE]Originally posted by PsyLiam: [QB] (to be devil's advocate) Except that, for all we know, that incident might have ended up being hused hushed, especially when the brand new Federation was trying to get it's Prime Directive off the ground. "We need it. Remember how bad the FC with the Klingons went?" "Well, it didn't go that badly, until a couple of years later." "Yes it did." "No it didn't." "Did did did did did did did did did..." "Fine, it did". Also, propoganda during the 23rd century hostilities might have clouded judgement on the issue, and that has stuck as common knowledge in the 24th century (even if it's inaccurate). One curious (and annoying) thing about Trek fans is that they seem to assume everything spoken on screen is 100% true, and that they are representing an unbiased POV. Q. What started WWII? A1. Germany invading Poland. A2. Germany invading half a million other places and refusing to stop even though we've asked them really nicely. A3. The treaty of Versailles. A4. WWI. A5. (If you're an American and turning up late) Pearl Habour. Sure, the actual FC incident wasn't a disaster, but if it in turn led directly into hostilities (and directly into can easily have a space of a couple of years), then I don't see the problem.
