Message | While it's all kocher, if Keymon hasn't accepted it what benefits gain from being the sole signatory on this treaty? |
Date | 20:56:12, February 22, 2007 CET | From | Union for a Responsible Republic | To | Debating the Ratification of the Keymon WMD Ban |
Message | It isn't a treaty meant to bound multiple nations together as much as just a way to "set" specific laws in order to ensure a grander policy (neutrality) is maintained. |

Message | We musn't ratify this or anything like it. While biological weapons are an obsolete and cruel way to conduct warfare, nuclear weapons are an important and valuable deterrant to other nuclear weapons as well as war in general. Ever hear of the concept of M.A.D.? A world without nuclear weapons in the hands of responsible parties would lead to a more volatile and dangerous world for us all. M.A.D. has served Terra well in the past. It will serve it even better in the present and future. |
