Section 1. All Clones shall be granted the rights, benefits, and opportunities of being a citizen of the Galactic Republic including joining the Military or Government.

Section 2. Beings that have been cloned against their will shall have no authority over their Clone.

Section 3. The killing of a Clone is illegal, the same as killing any living being.

Article 2. Clones, Jedi and Government.

Section 1. While all Clones shall have the benefits and rights of citizenship, a Clone must abide by the constitution that prevents Jedi from running for a Government office and attaining voting authority simultaneously.

Section 2. While legalizing a Clones existence and right to live, Cloning itself, by private companies and organizations shall remain illegal unless done under the authority of the Galactic Republic. The Jedi Order and Medical facilities such as Hospitals are allowed to use cloning technology as needed.

Rhialto Tereshchenko, Representative of Bespin only suggested some wording change to Article 1 Section 3   Rhialto Tereshchenko said,  “Just one bit of wording; it may seem overly particular but I have one change I suggest.”  Giving the floor, by Chancellor Pjaysiv Panteer, Rhialto went on to say that Killing should be changed to Murder.   He said, “I would personally change killing to murder.

It has been some time since GNW travel to the forest moon of Endor. Before our arrival, we were told of an attack by the Shade Regime. GNW spoke to Arbitras Rexsus II leader of GRAE.  He sent us a holo picture of the incident and explain to us what had happened.

He told GNW that they had been cleaning up after their war with the Shade Regime. We were told that it took weeks to clean it up. He said, ” Before you arrived we went through hell on Endor …Tie fighters of the Shade Regime launching out left and right attack at our Forrest grounds.” He was very sad about the incident that he growled sadly and then continue to tell us that there were some who were suicide drivers.  AS you see on the left of your screen, a holo image of exploding debris.

Rex continues by stating that he took much of his own energy to destroy their weapons with a former DJE Who’s no long passed away. He spoke with a sad voice as he spoke of his friend Jessant Cassius who kept watch over Dantooine, Yavin, and Tython from any attacks that came from Regime. We were told that it was Jess who help call in their strike when Regime came to seek Dantooine with their weapons. Rex said that Jess is a hero in his eyes but said not so much of his family on DJE.

Is Jess dead? Rex hope he isn’t but said, “He shot first for most the strongest weapon he could at the regime’s weapon and triggered it to self destruct ..its somehow force sensitive nature boost his hyperdrive leading him to an endless loop last we heard him in Hyperspeed”

Rex left this firm warning. He said, “The leaders Grand General Darcrux and Darth Toruk are very much still alive so DJE, Tython, and YAVIN you maybe still active targets by these leaders and even Endor and many others.”

GNW would like tell our viewers that we all must be vigilant and be on our guard from any attacks by Shade Regime. GNW will keep our viewers update if we learn anything new.

Today in remembrance of Alderaan and the millions of voices that were silenced  GNW will give you a history of Alderaan.  “The galaxy knows Alderaan as ‘the planet of beauty.’ Nature, poetry, philosophy, art, couture, cuisine—we freely share all with all.“  This was a quote giving by Senator Bail Organa.  Alderaan was located in Core worlds.  It was a terrestrial planet, filled with mountain ranges that were covered with snow caps. It surfaces had vast bodies of water as well as grassy hills. It was known by the rest of the galaxy for it beauty.   It had famous landmark like Cloudshape Falls and Isatabith Rain Forest.  It grew a variety of grapevines which were used to produce Toniray and Emerald wine.  The Architect of its buildings was designed to respect the natural beauty of its environment.  During the Old Republic,  the peaceful world of Alderaan was among the oldest members of the Galactic Republic and was one of the original founders.

After the end of the Clone Wars, Chancellor Palpatine abolished the Republic, and establish the Galactic Empire. There were a small number of Systems who rebelled against this new regime, and the Alliance to Restore the Republic was ultimately formed by Bail Organa and his former colleague in the Galactic Senate, Senator Mon Mothma of Chandrila.   During this time, Alderaan became the Alliance’s main source of munitions. The planet’s crown princess and representative in the Imperial Senate, Princess Leia Organa, the adoptive daughter of Bail and Breha Organa, began using her diplomatic immunity as an Imperial senator to carry out Rebel missions in restricted Imperial systems.

During the early rebellion against the Galactic Empire, Alderaan was listed as an Alliance safe world. It was included in a map of the galaxy with a legend listing the various Alliance safe worlds, starfighter hubs at level five or higher, rebel operations sectors and regional headquarters, and shadow planets with deep space caches. The map would later be incorporated into The Rebel Files.

About three years before the Battle of Yavin, Senator Bail Organa dispatched three Sphyrna-class corvettes to the Phoenix Cell, which has sustained losses while fleeing Garel. Since Alderaan could not be seen directly supporting the rebels, Senator Organa arranged for his adopted daughter Leia to deliver the vessels to Lothal. The Alderaanians risked losing their seat in the Imperial Senate among other Imperial sanctions. Senator Organa had arranged for the crew of the Ghost to “steal” the ships from an Imperial depot on Lothal so that Alderaan could not be blamed for the “theft.” With the help of the crew of the Ghost and the former Governor Ryder Azadi, Leia managed to deliver the three Hammerhead corvettes to the Phoenix rebels following a skirmish at the Imperial depot.

In 0BBY, shortly before the Battle of Scarif, Senator Bail Organa headed towards Alderaan to tell their people that there would be no peace after the plans for the Death Star, a planet-killing Imperial superlaser, were discovered. The plans were later stolen from the data vault on Scarif, and transferred aboard the Tantive IV. Princess Leia of Alderaan, Bail’s adopted daughter and thus member of the Elder Houses was captured by the Imperial Navy while smuggling the plans to the Alliance base. Organa was taken prisoner by the Sith Lord Darth Vader, the Emperor’s second-in-command, and brought before the Death Star’s commanding officer, Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin. Under threat of destroying her planet, Leia gave a fake location of the rebel base to Tarkin, only to have Tarkin destroy Alderaan anyway, noting that Dantooine was too remote for an “effective demonstration.” The Imperials forced the princess to witness the obliteration of her home planet, an act that Tarkin hoped would instill fear among the secessionist systems in an effort to keep them in line. The planet’s destruction left only an asteroid field behind, which was blockaded by the Empire. Almost immediately after the Battle of Yavin, Leia Organa would embark on a  mission to rescue the survivors of Alderaan from Imperial reprisals following the destruction of the First Death Star.

On Coruscant, the Empire’s planetary  capital, the numerous Alderaanian residents of Level 3204 began to hold vigils for those who had perished in what they called “The Disaster.” However, as more information became available about the Empire’s role in the destruction of Alderaan, the vigils soon turned into riots, which were quickly repressed by brute force.  Following the Battle of Yavin, Vader took the remains of Alderaan to serve as reminders to worlds that attempted to resist the Emperor. Following an assassination attempt on himself at Shu-Torun, Vader then gave Trios, the new Queen  of that planet, one of these reminders.

By 5 ABY a  flotilla of starships orbited the Alderaaina graveyard, the new name for the debris remaining of the planet. Princess Leia managed to use her political connections to take scrap from the Death Star, initially intended for incineration, to be used to construct a new space station around the planet. By the time of the New Republic, Alderaan’s destruction would become a stark reminder for future generations about the terrors of the Galactic Empire, and would often be an ‘uncomfortable subject’ for those that brought up the planet’s destruction in conversation. As such, surviving Alderaanians would be treated with great respect for their lost world and people. For collectors, rare bottles of the alcoholic beverage Toniray would become a highly-prized commodity.

GNW ends our report with this quote by Princess Leia Organa to Senator Ramsolm Casterfo. “What act of terror could be more horrible than what happened to Alderaan? Have you forgotten that? I was there. I saw it happen, stood there watching while they destroyed my world, my home, everyone I had ever loved.”

With tension raising between Prilla Bareesh and the New Republic, GNW spoke with a twi’lek by the name of Ryssa’akysa who works for Throbon Hutt. Ryss’akysa told GNW that The great Throbon the Hutt wishes the galaxy and leaders of the New Republic, Galactic Empire, and RSO to know that after last night’s Hutt Night he is offering them a one time offer to a peace summit at a location of his choosing. Last night the Inijic and Bareesh forces showed the New Republic their might and mercy.
The might and mercy that the Inijic and Bareesh forces showed was a beat down of a Mandalorian name Soron Skirata after he try to escape the rancor pit when Throbon the Hutt learned Soron Skirata who was suppose to be working security for him had turned coward and sided with the New Republic as soon as things got too hot.

Ryssa’akysa told GNW that His Mightiness Throbon wishes to offer Ilum as the location of the peace summit. He feels they may be more agreeable of the location is neutral to all parties. All bounties on them will be given pause for the time of the meeting. If terms are agreeable to all, he will cancel all bounties that have been issued by the Hutt Council, not just the ones on the leaders. If the summit is not agreed upon, I guess we’ll get a stockpile of GAR Clones and bucket-heads to feed the rancors for a good war.

She ended our interview by saying. “If there is to be a fight, we hope they bring a good one. We have a whole stockpile of armaments, a fleet of ships and vehicles going to waste and we’re eager to put them to use. This is twice those people have started a war. We won’t back down or surrender. Each day the Mighty Hutts gain in power and influence and when this is over they’ll reward those who stand with them to end this war as quickly as possible so they can punish only those who are responsible for the wars.”
