The Kaskus-NSO War resulted from Kaskus accepting Unknown Smurf, who was on the NSO ZI list, onto their AA, and soon after, appointing him to a governmental position. A peaceful resolution seemed to be around the corner when negotiations were derailed, and NSO attacked Unknown Smurf in an attempt to carry out the ZI sentence. Kaskus responded by attacking NSO. Public sentiment generally favored NSO as having a valid CB and attempting to diffuse the situation through diplomacy and limited military response.
