Considering the Alsakans have blown up Jedi facilities, tried to kamikaze innocent worlds and want to displace the entire population of Coruscant to turn it into one big nature reserve, it's pretty inappropriate to be placing the Republic in a bad light when your own faction resorts to such extreme measures, cailst.
They also bombed a farmworld and a civillian settlement, and attempted to crash a group of capital ships on a heavily populated city. Just throwing it out there.
