| Message | Why would we require biological and chemical weapons? These weapons have proven not to add significantly to our conventional defensive capabilities, and yet they serve to antagonise the world. These weapons are useful almost singularly for deployment against civilian populations. The SLP does not believe in such cruel and inhumane warfare. We would rather use defence funding for weapons we can actually *use* for the defense of our country. Furthermore the people of the Beluzian Republic are known for their love of peace. Such a programme would in our opinion betray that love. |

| Message | But think about it, who would dare to attack us anyway if we did have these weapons? No one, they would think twice about ever attacking us.. these weapons while, yes, they are dangerous, are also very useful at keeping other nations in order. |
