The movement grew increasingly popular after Admiral [[Helena Cain]] and the [[battlestar (RDM)|battlestar]] ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' joined forces | '''Demand Peace''' is an extremist organization (operating out of ''[[Cloud Nine]]'') led by [[Royan Jahee]] that seeks peace with the [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylons]]. Their ideology has gained significant traction amongst the civilian population of the [[The Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] who believe surrender to the Cylons is preferable to a life on the run. The movement grew increasingly popular after Admiral [[Helena Cain]] and the [[battlestar (RDM)|battlestar]] ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' joined forces as Cain's methods to fight the Cylons, and the oppression by the Fleet to prevent Cylon sabatoge, made them no better than the Cylons who hunt them down. | ||
The group's first known action begins by sneaking a Demand Peace mole, [[Asha Janik]], aboard ''Galactica'' to work as a civilian munitions worker. While there, she sabotages ''Galactica'''s [[Viper (RDM)|Vipers]] by producing faulty hollow-rounds for the fighter's guns. ''Galactica's'' crew members later capture and interrogate her. The next act of sabotage takes place about the [[tylium]] refinery ship ''[[Daru Mozu]]'', where Demand Peace members aboard the ship detonate a bomb close to its [[FTL]] drive. | |||

Dr. [[Gaius Baltar]] secretly provides the group a nuclear warhead (given to him to make his [[Cylon detector]] by then-Commander [[William Adama|Adama]]) in order to aid the future plans of Demand Peace member and [[Cylon agent|possibly disaffected Cylon]] agent [[Gina Inviere]]. After his election to the presidency, Baltar visits Inviere aboard ''Cloud 9'', saying that his election should allow future opportunities for time together. Inviere informs him that she will not go to New Caprica, and Baltar responds that he can no longer visit her under such circumstances. At the last moment, Inviere overcomes her prior reluctance to have sex with Baltar, but after hearing Baltar sworn-in as president commits suicide by detonating the nuclear warhead aboard ''Cloud Nine''. Several ships are destroyed in the process, also revealing the position of the Fleet to the Cylons, but whether this side-effect is intentional is not known. | |||
The fate of Demand Peace and the remainder of its members after ''Cloud Nine'''s destruction is left in doubt ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]). It is probable that any survivors of the group and its cause lose their influence after the conflicts that stem from the Cylon occupation on [[New Caprica]] one year later. | |||
