Bill: New Defense
Details
Submitted by[?]: Free Lodamun
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

We still have a need to protect ourselves. A nuclear retaliation policy would act as a deterrent. Please understand, this is only giving us the OPTION of using nukes. This is not standard policy, only when we're absolutely against the wall. |

Message | Isn't this basically the same as the previous law? At any rate, we support this bill. |

Message | This is not the same as the bill that was just passed. Since apparently we can't reserve the right the strike first, this will act as a deterrent instead. |
Date | 12:12:23, June 20, 2007 CET | From | United Republics Party | To | Debating the New Defense |
Message | URP does not believe in using nuclear weapons to retaliate for a non-nuclear attack. |
