When did I ever say "every single one", if you'll actually go back and read my post, you'll see that I go on to talk about "majority" and "minority". Unless someone changed the definition of the word "majority" and didn't tell anyone, it does not mean, and has never meant, every single one of something. I am not presenting anything as a hive-mind at all.Travis never says "every single one" either...

All of the Elites were in the Covenant...if you meant the military then what you said is true :P But all of the Elites were within the Covenant. And actually considering how the majority of the Elites considered adults and of age are soldiers on the frontlines and in the military, pretty much the whole species would fall into the military aspect of your scenario. And actually the part about any not currently serving actively in the military at that time is wrong as Bungie made mention of a very large, and growing, number of the Elite youth being human sympathizers...so obviously they knew enough about humans to form an opinion of them.Yeah I meant military, my bad. Women and young children are obviously not in the military though. Not all Elites are in the military. And I didn't make any major mention of the Elite youth. Anyways, they would have spent less time killing humans, and by the time he joined there was probably more questioning of the Prophet's orders. So yes, I think they could formed an opinion. Not sure how that connects to what I said...

In Glasslands Trilogy they're still all haters, doesn't matter if they want peace at the moment or not...they only want it so they can have strength to finish humans off and start fighting again later.Only the majority. Remember how the majority doesn't mean all?

And ONI is not at all representative, and never has been, of humanity. They are the problem, not the UNSC or humanity in general, just ONI and ONI alone...and really it's just Parangosky and her toadies/minions/flunkies, ONI the organization itself is only a problem so long as the retarded hag or any of her inner circle are leading it. Parangosky is a rogue agent and isn't acting on orders at all or in any official capacity, she's doing what she wants to do and saying "-blam!- the chain of command and all consequences, my word is law and all that matters and no one else's!"-blam!- THE POLICE! Lol.
Anyways, ONI is part of the UNSC right? So if the UNSC is the parent, and ONI is a disobedient child, then it is VERY much still the UNSC's problem when it comes to ONI. Sure ONI gets punished, but the UNSC takes the blame as well.
Besides, ONI is very representative of the human nature. We want to survive as a species so we do whatever it takes. Survival of the fittest. Sabatoge has also been around for years. It's been ingrained in us to try and weaken the enemy, so what ONI is doing is nothing out of the ordinary.
