Well Roberto, I can honestly tell you Traviss butchered an honest case where she could truly be showing it from a non-biased viewpoint.
How? Naomi. Osman points out bad parts of Halsey sure, but what was Naomi doing the entire time? Sitting aside letting them diss Halsey? Never once spoke up and pointed out good parts of her?
Come on, we aren't flipping out about somebody saying she did bad things or wasn't that great. We are, however, rightfully angry at the bull-blam!- claims for the arrest and how EVERYBODY in the book is against her, or indifferent. Come on, you think Fred and crew would really stop simply because Osman in a captain and goes "Can't see her?" or that an ODST would have the nerve to stand up to an entire Spartan II squad wanting to see the person on the other side of the door?
You think they wouldn't report it directly to Hood and then he would carve Parangosky a new one, cause according to some pro-glasslands guys she can't cross him or counter-act his orders. That's why she did NOTHING to stop him from sending Blue Team to Onyx.
Get off your high horse, previous halo lore didn't say she was right or wrong. Oh, and as I said earlier, the ODST's get royally pissed at what Halsey did. I'd buy that, if they didn't know S3's were suicide soldiers and kept working for ONI like nothing was a matter with that.(somebody can confirm, but in the parts I read I distinctly remember as pointed out in previous post, that one of the ODST's after being talked out of murdering Halsey *or around that time*, commented mentally about the S3's being suicide soldiers)
So yeah, justify that. Why is the ODST hating Halsey for the S2 project actions, but being perfectly fine and not backing out of the mission for the S3 project actions good storytelling? Especially since he apparently knows enough details about both. By your own logic, the two ODST's should absolutely despite Parangosky and Osman for the S3 project as much as they hate Halsey. Let's also toss out the fact the ODST's and Philips shouldn't even know or have ACCESS to ANY of these files. I'd love to know why Parangosky didn't gut Osman for spilling those above top top secret details to them for no good reason other then "They might ask questions about me" or something like that.
Me? I'd want more information. I'd want to hear more about Halsey, from the Spartan's themselves. I wouldn't run off wanting to shoot her from a emotionless report. I'd go up to Fred or Naomi for example, and ask them about the program and Halsey.
