Bill: Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland
Details
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 |

Message | We prefer the other flag, but we can live with this one. |
Date | 20:20:41, February 12, 2007 CET | From | Ma'avak | To | Debating the Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland |
Message | We 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 ;) |
Date | 20:44:26, February 12, 2007 CET | From | Yachad | To | Debating the Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland |
Message | The nation name I'm not crazy about... Trying to think of other options. |

Date | 20:58:21, February 12, 2007 CET | From | Yachad | To | Debating the Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland |
Message | Just 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... :) |
Date | 21:01:07, February 12, 2007 CET | From | Ma'avak | To | Debating the Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland |
Message | Well 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? |
Date | 21:10:39, February 12, 2007 CET | From | Yachad | To | Debating the Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland |
Message | I 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. |
Date | 21:13:14, February 12, 2007 CET | From | Yachad | To | Debating the Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland |
Message | back to the flag - it would have to be a larger star... |
Date | 21:15:09, February 12, 2007 CET | From | Ma'avak | To | Debating the Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland |
Message | I 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. |
Date | 21:21:11, February 12, 2007 CET | From | Yachad | To | Debating the Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland |
Message | Not sure. Hebrew is not my specialty :) |
Date | 22:30:55, February 12, 2007 CET | From | Yachad | To | Debating the Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland |
Message | Much as I love the idea of killer penguins, we also probably need a new animal. I like gazelle, as they are frequently mentioned in the Tanakh. |
Date | 23:38:50, February 12, 2007 CET | From | Popular Revolutionary Front | To | Debating the Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland |
Message | "Congrats to the Jews in their victory against the occupiers, Viva la Resistance! Viva La Revolution!" |
Date | 23:40:28, February 12, 2007 CET | From | Ma'avak | To | Debating the Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland |
Message | What about something like this for the flag: http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h87/chazza116/beiteynuagain.png Or it might be a bit too similar to Israel. |
Date | 01:33:14, February 13, 2007 CET | From | Yachad | To | Debating the Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland |
Message | It is similar, but cool... How about this one: http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/images/i/il-1918.gif Not sure if it's usable... |
Date | 01:43:57, February 13, 2007 CET | From | Yachad | To | Debating the Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland |
Message | Your designs are good though, we'll vote for whatever you decide on. |
Date | 11:13:35, February 13, 2007 CET | From | Ma'avak | To | Debating the Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland |
Message | I've put the second one and removed the motto, will you vote yes as it is? |
Date | 01:16:35, February 14, 2007 CET | From | Yachad | To | Debating the Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland |
Message | Absolutely |
Date | 20:54:01, February 14, 2007 CET | From | daudaron Party | To | Debating the Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland |
Message | http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/images/i/il-1918.gif, isnt this the flag Tevedar Herzl suggested... I would vote YES! |
Date | 00:30:16, February 15, 2007 CET | From | Ma'avak | To | Debating the Revolution - The Fifth Jewish Homeland |
Message | I 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. |
