Gundam 00 Episode 07

Well from what I saw, it looked like a pretty run down place, with those outdated HRL suits. From Setsuna's reaction, it was probably from that civil war in Sri Lanka. They didn't seem to have too good a technology, and big powers weren't exactly shooting live either. Since that civil war was nothing new, and other assaults may have happened simultaneously, the news-worthiness may not have been worth the risk of sending a crew there, not that either sides were probably interested in being on the news anyway. That suit had full blown "wings", which probably indicated radio jamming, as well as a test for the prototype Solar Furnace. Shooting straight through the cockpits also support the fact that it was out to kill.

Just saying, in a run down and utterly chaotic place, keeping a low profile by killing witnesses isn't too hard, especially with a bit of military might.

@Kraco - The thing is, sometimes they can (control what goes public, I mean). It is a lot more naive to think that everything is exposed to public scrutiny and knowledge.

you'll also remember that nobody has ever seen a Gundam (at least not that we know about) prior to CB's declaration and episode 1 interventions. So whether it was a matter of CB wiping out everyone in that area where Setsuna was saved, or if the only real things left were the HRL mechs (since they seemed to have totally destroyed the city and the handful of fighters left were getting massacred), it's very possible that Setsuna is the only person who knows exactly how it ended.

Yeah, I suppose it's possible and indeed it seems to be because nobody has indicated they had previous knowledge. CB is a terrorist organization, after all, so wiping out all witnesses would be just a normal day at work for them.

Especially true if that test pilot was Tieria
