"This terrible "incident," as most government lackeys have come to refer to it, was one of the worst breakdowns in domestic control policy since the abuses of the Insurrectionist period. What the government has done here is absolutely detestable, and should by no means be allowed to happen again."

- Political Commentator David "Crunch" Murray, on his wildly-popular talk show, Crunch Time

The Baikal II Incident, also known as the beginning of the Baikal II Incident and the |Baikal II Incident, developed from a series of riots sparked by the temporary suspension of pensions for some veterans. Unfortunately, some anti-UNSC elements who were intent on breaking free of the militaristic democracy took advantage of this moment of temporary weakness and added enough ardor to the cause to give the riots critical mass.
