Yeah, you said that before, but it's a groundless assertion. My entire point was that there is no proof Ekuna was in Council space at the time the Quarians discovered it - you have an end date for when it fell under Council jurisdiction and no start date. Even if it was Council territory before they were even aware of it's existence, the Council was going to go in there and kill them. Yeah, so you have a refugee camp in Montana. Illegal immigrants, whatever you want to call them. Dropping napalm on them isn't the first reaction of a sane person.
Funny thing, that. I may be wrong, but I was under the impression that Council-associated races were forbidden to trade with exiles (see gray-market between hanar and batarians). I thought that if humanity pulled out circa ME1, the Salarians etc. would be obliged to cut all economic ties.
Saw that too. Council had their hands full at the time with the Alpha Relay fiasco and trying to keep the lid on a human-batarian war. Had they received notice that the Quarians were about to hit the Geth (or had the Quarians acted before the events of ME1) I'm certain they would have intervened.
Since there's no start date, it's an issue that can't be resolved. But if there were refugees setting up a government in Montana, and they had no permission to do as such, then military action would be an appropriate response.
The Quarians are stated to go through systems at times and get manufactured supplies and what not. Some don't allow them, like Illium, but it certainly implies the Fleet does some level of trade with the Citadel.
And if they knew that the Quarians had something akin to a super weapon that more or less guaranteed victory? They'd say go ahead, kill all the Geth.
Though I wouldn't blame the Citadel races if they stepped in to stop the Quarians from angering the Geth, seeing as the population of say, New York City, is in all likelyhood greater than that of the entire Quarian race. So if the Quarians were likely to lose, and cause the Geth to come pouring out of the Perseus Veil, far more people would die than if they killed all the Quarians to stop that from happening. As we have agreed on before, a taking pot shots at planets is a great way to kill a population.
While I would chose the lives of 17 million Quarians over the lives of 16 million Humans/Asari/Batarians/Turians/Salarians/Hanar/Volus/Elcor, I would chose the lives of 18 million Humans/Asari/Batarians/Turians/Salarians/Hanar/Volus/Elcor over 17 million Quarians.
