Here is a question:

In Chapter 2 the asari councillor objects to a quarian embassy "because it implies the existence of an cohesive government." Um. . . Ok

1) The Admiralty Board and the authority of ship Captains, both of which are quite democratic, seem to not count.

2) The small population, enclosed environment and collectivist views of the quarians make their government a very stable one, since having petty political conflicts would only cause damage to the whole species.

3) The asari Councillor is the one saying this, yet her government is a loosely connected network of nation states. That counts as a cohesive government ha?

4) The volus admit their government is malleable and constantly changing, yet they have an embassy.

And you notice that amount of stuff that seems lifted from other media. A bio-weapon that targets a certain person? Ever hear of Foxdie? Kai Leng using an exploding fake gun? Watch The World is Not Enough much? And why is Kai acting like a freaking James Bond clone? He is Cerberus and he is suppose to be quick, ruthless, brutal and never leave a trace behind that will lead to him. Committing a terrorist act on the batarian homeworld seems from another book. And stupid from people worrying about an anti-human war. They are just pushing it more the preparing for it.
