Message | The key word here is "any reason". Why should Al'Badara be able to nuke a country into the stone-age for "any reason" during war? This is fear-mongering of the highest level. |

Message | The PM fails to understand how this is an issue. Our defensive arsenal is at the hands of the executive branch which in return remains in the hands of the legislature. There wouldn't be any "any reason random bombing X nation" without the full support and cohesiveness of all parties. |
