You've not done badly given the difficulty of the vocabulary to 
translate, but I had trouble reading it because I got fixed on {qum 
vuD} "the government's opinion," and wondering why you had put a 
possessive suffix on it.

{HeSvaD potlhbe' qIrq vuDmey} would be more clearly understandable, 
and if you don't mind the three noun pile, {potlhbe' qIrq qum vuDmey} 
is clearer to me than {qum vuDDaj}.

Harsh words. Well translated.

pItlh seems fine.
