Message | A final solution, indeed. Let's do it and get this mess over with. (OOC: If this is passed, will the IngSoc player change to a new party?) |

Message | So, Godwin smiled. Are Fiddle and his friends ready to go down in history as the destroyers of the ancient cites of Dar al Badara and Al-Kamelah? To render Garkia a wasteland unfit for human habitation? If so, it would be Fiddle who would be the arch-villain of the civil war. And IngSoc would be remembered as the heroes who thought the mad tyrant Fiddle only to be destroyed by his infernal weapons. Fiddle the murderer, the title befitted him well. |

Message | Insanity. We cannot use nuclear weapons against our own people. That way lies madness. |
Date | 00:15:16, November 05, 2007 CET | From | Kébé Front | To | Debating the Last Chance |
Message | So what would the Ulama suggest? Would they suggest that we have a long gruelign war that will expend MANY more lives, and trillions off dollars? This is our last option, if we do not do this then our nation is doomed. Our party will take the shame. Let us be put down in history as the 'murderers'! We care not! We will know despite what others may think that this was the better of two evils. |

Message | We cannot bear to see our great nation destroyed by civil strife. This is madness. |
Date | 01:02:33, November 05, 2007 CET | From | Al'Badara Republican Party | To | Debating the Last Chance |
Message | The DAAB do not believe in nuclear, biological or chemical reasons at all although we do have a double standard of allowing nuclear weapons.... Therefore, we cannot accept this bill. |
Date | 02:41:02, November 05, 2007 CET | From | Kébé Front | To | Debating the Last Chance |
Message | Very well then. If our nation will deny us this path we shall let them deal with IngSoc their own way. Let this official message run through the lands. The FFA is withdrawing from Gharki to Kandala. |

Message | A nuclear attack will kill EVERYONE in the country. That can't be allowed to happen. |

Message | Nuking another country is ethically dodgy, but nuking YOUR OWN country is just crazy! |
