Bill: Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland

Details

Submitted by[?]: Ma'avak

Status[?]: passed

Votes: This bill asks for an amendement to the Constitution. It will require two-thirds of the legislature to vote in favor. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

Voting deadline: May 2360

Description[?]:

All Pnték politicians have been expelled from the political process and their parties have disbanded. The armed forces of Beiteynu, assissted by Cobura are driving the Pontesian military out of Tadraki and Endild. Jewish politicians gather on the steps of the Sanhedrin to declare the re-independence of the nation;

"Glory be for this is the day of our liberation. As we speak the Pnték are fleeing with their tails between their legs and their ears full of the sound of screeching bullets. This is our land, a unified and unbreakable land, given to us by the Lord and redeemed by the people.

We do hereby declare dissolution of the Fourth Jewish Homeland of Beiteynu and the independence of the Fifth Jewish Homeland of Beiteynu, with sovereignty over all five of our Mehozot."

-- Yechezkel Sheetrit

* The nation shall be renamed the Fifth Jewish Homeland of Beiteynu

MessageWe prefer the other flag, but we can live with this one.

MessageWe feel the old flag may have too many negative connotations with the dictatorship that the Third Homeland descended into to.

The HoS, HoG, Legislature names are secular titles to appeal to you whilst maintaining the Hebrew language.

What is your opinion on the nation name?

I can't see you supporting the motto though ;)

MessageJust a suggestion on the flag (I can't make one) - how about placing the Magen David over the middle stripe? Kindof connect them... In my mind's eye it looks better... :)

ToDebating the Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland
MessageWell I went for fifth because I like the whole thing of numbers in nation titles. However we can call it something else if we can put something in the bill stating that this is the foundation of a Fifth Homeland and the Fourth was a temporary state of the resistance.

Medinat Beiteynu might be good, I like things being in Hebrew, I think Yehudit Moledet shel-Beiteynu means Jewish Homeland of Beiteynu. I'll try and work out how to say other things, probably not Commonwealth though because Pontesi is one and the people probably wouldn't want the same name.

We should also look to change the number of seats in the legislative assembly, 120?

MessageI do like the numbers thing - thinking about it, the Fifth Homeland name is fine and is growing on me (although the hebrew one is awesome as well).

I'm willing to change the seats also.

MessageI wonder how you say fifth in Hebrew? Hmmm. Also I'm not sure the grammar of Moledet shel-Beiteynu is correct but I think it might be.

MessageWhat about something like this for the flag:

Or it might be a bit too similar to Israel.

How about this one:

MessageI thought that flag was too busy and messy to be used as a national flag. I'm thinking of passing a bill formalising flags in other areas of Beiteynu so stay tuned and that will be included.
