Hmm, odds of it happening?  Pretty good, although not without some bumps
in
the road as already seen by the bits written about it up to this point. 
In
order for it to work, everyone needs to get on board from the sound of
things.  However, that's probably pretty likely as the K-V have made the
stupid (from the human perspective) mistake of going for the heart of
humanity (Earth), upon which all of the powers of the Tuffleyverse are
represented.  That'll be enough to unify them.	Had the K-V been smart
(or
informed) they'd have been better off going after the colonies of the
major
powers one-by-one, as any one power would've been reluctant to help
another.
By going straight for Earth, they've managed to attack the one place
that all
of the major powers will unify to protect.  After all, an orbital
bombardment
doesn't respect national borders, now does it? :)
