Voting deadline: March 2495
Description[?]:
| President Ricard has received the following message from a Deltarian party: "Due to economic crises and a lack of control over our dissenting military, we have found it neccessary to invade your country and pillage your lands. We sincerely hope that this will not cause a strain in Deltarian-Jelbanian relations. Your friends, The Deltarians" http://80.237.164.51/particracy/main/viewbill.php?billid=158968 The text of the above bill (which has not been voted upon) in Deltaria is as follows: "RECOGNISING that the mainstay of any nation is her Armed Forces, and that de facto control over the Armed Forces is de facto control over the Nation. RECOGNISING that the annual funding of half a million Telars allocated to the military is grossly below what is neccessary to maintain our million-man standing army. ACCEPTING that if the Armed Forces starve, they shall desert, pillage, loot, and inevitably fall into open rebellion and institute a militaristic Coup d'Etat, destroying all semblence of democracy in our fair and free nation. We hereby have no choice but to present a FORMAL DECLARATION OF WAR apon the République Fédérée de Jelbania, so that our troops may loot and pillage Jelbania for food and supplies, rather than their motherland. The aims of this war will be simply to distract the Armed Forces long enough to institute a sensible defence expenditure, with the goal of effecting a Status Quo Ante Bellum peace once our troops can be paid from Governmental Revenue. In accordance with the Rildanor Accord, this declaration of war requires a 50% majority to pass. Veto power is held by the Prezident, as well as the SSK and SzDD. However, if veto power is utilised, or if this bill should otherwise fail due to lack of support, we must warn that we will have no choice but to unilaterally declare civil war, to prevent outright revolution." Minister of Defence Félix Chatal proposes that we begin military exercises with our troops and quickly send them to our border with Deltaria. We will not stand for invasion of our country for any reason. We will show any nation who wishes to put Jelbania at risk that we will do whatever necessary to protect our people, our land, and our resources. The failure of that nation to adequately provide for its military should not put Jelbania at risk. We will use whatever force is necessary. |

| Message | UCC sent the following message to Deltarian party who informed us of the proposed invasion: - If you invade our land for any reason, prepare to face the strength of the Jelbanian army. We will not allow our nation to suffer because of the inadequacies of your military budget. This kind of brutish and childish behavior will not be tolerated in a civilized world. If you choose to do this, PREPARE FOR DEFEAT! President Laurent Ricard République Fédérée de Jelbania |

| Message | We cannot allow such bully-boy posturing to prevail. The President should send messages to other Deltarian parties asking for their support, and illustrating the huge economic cost that any war puts on a state and its people. |
| Date | 22:26:13, December 01, 2007 CET | From | Centre Démocratique | To | Debating the Readying Our National Forces Against the Invasion from Deltaria |

| Message | We strongly support a diplomatic action and solution of this matter, however we support the execises of our army. |
| Date | 22:38:50, December 01, 2007 CET | From | Centre Démocratique | To | Debating the Readying Our National Forces Against the Invasion from Deltaria |
| Message | President Ricard sent the following message to Deltaria: "Please do not risk precious lives and valuable financial resources of both our nations because you wish to protest the funding of your military. There are peaceful and non-violent ways to protest this. In addition, if you think your nation's military funding is scarce now, it will grow even worse if you engage with the mighty, skilled, and large Jelbanian military. It is quite ironic that you are protesting your military budget by using it for an unnecessary invasion. Please reconsider this foolish proposal and think of the safety of the Deltarian and Jelbanian people. President Laurent Ricard République Fédérée de Jelbania" |

| Message | It seems that the Deltarian Declaration of War will be passed, it has gathered 53 votes so far with only 47 seats not yet voted, so it appears that war is likely. We feel that we should involve the international community and garner support against the Deltarians. If we can encourage economic sanctions against Deltaria, the pressure may still be able to avert war. |
| Date | 22:59:14, December 01, 2007 CET | From | Centre Démocratique | To | Debating the Readying Our National Forces Against the Invasion from Deltaria |
| Message | We have called on our friends in Union Francaise and the Accord for military aid and for them to declare economic sanctions on Deltaria. |

| Message | We strongly support the international damnation of this act, and we should remember that we surely have strong allies in the opposition's parties of Deltaria like the People Communists party, which hold the presidency. Probably they'll use their veto power against this proposal |
| Date | 23:07:38, December 01, 2007 CET | From | Centre Démocratique | To | Debating the Readying Our National Forces Against the Invasion from Deltaria |
| Message | We sent the following message: Prezident Olavi Ollonen (of the People's Communist Party): We call on you to veto the Declaration of War on Jelbania introduced by the SSK. They are putting innocent people at risk because they do not like your nation's military budget. Please do whatever is in your power to avert this crisis.

| Message | We are completely for the national defence of Jelbania and we have complete and total confidence in President Richard and Defence Minister Chatal to defeat this aggressive war mongering rogue nation. We sanction the use of any weapon in the Jelbanian defense to destroy the attacking forces. We will be victorious! Pierre Cremieux, Chairman of the Progressive Federalist Party |

| Message | Why all this hostility? It's merely a war, and it will be fought by the offal of our two nations. We are a different breed to those vermin, we have power, money, respect ; so let them slaughter each other and stain the rivers red, it can bring nothing but benefit to the stations of both Deltaria's leaders, and of Jelbania's. It's not as though the war will be putting your own lives or property at risk ; on the contrary, the mindless peasantry will rally to your cause, and your popularity will skyrocket. Why then, can we not remain brother nations, neighbours and friends? Bojan Krutsky Strana Strachu a Korupcia |

| Message | We are freinds of Deltaria not freinds of a corrupt and warmongering party such as yourselves. You are calling to pillage our lands that in it's self is a message of hostility. And unlike you we are a fair and peaceful nation that does not go killing people for self gratitude and respect. We care for our people and their well-being not to murder, pillage, and steal their money like you and your party does for their own personal gain. Pierre Cremieux, Chairman of the Progressive Federalist Party |
| Date | 02:16:32, December 02, 2007 CET | From | VonkajÅ¡Ãci | To | Debating the Readying Our National Forces Against the Invasion from Deltaria |
| Message | Oh, how you make us smile with your jokes. "Caring for the people's well-being"? But please, save your populist rhetoric for the unwashed Jelbek masses. I'm a Deltarian citizen, and not registered to vote in Jelbanian elections, in case you haven't noticed. Come, be honest ; we are both cut from the same cloth, you and I. We are both leaders of men, we are shepherds, not sheep. And leaders kill, or they are killed in turn. Surely you can see that the Deltarian situation gives us little choice but to invade a neighbouring country, and surely you understand the value of the propagandist coup you will recieve when an armistace is signed. It is a situation which benefits us both, and to honestly concern yourselves with the well-being of the verminous scum that throw their wretched lives away to keep us apon our seats of power is unthinkable. You might convince your uneducated masses that you truly care about them ; and we applaud you for this. Personally, we prefer to stack the polling booths with knife-happy political thugs, but convincing the moronic cattle of your nation to willingly vote for you is almost as good. But save your breath with us. We see through your empty lies, because we tell the same ones, day in and day out. Bojan Krutsky Strana Stracu a Korupcia |
| Date | 02:27:30, December 02, 2007 CET | From | Démocrates de la Gauche | To | Debating the Readying Our National Forces Against the Invasion from Deltaria |
| Message | The difference between us and you is that we can be the shepards because we are like by the sheep and we herd our flocks, keep them safe, and give them a better living in your words. We are not like the same people you might like to think we are the same kind of people that is the base of your propoganda you try to spread. Your party is so sucked into your underworld life that you think everyone else is you and you don't have the guts or the ingenuity to step out and try to get like by what you have done instead of who you have killed. And why do you refer to our people as "moronic cattle?" those moronic cattle you refer too actually make their own decisions and choose their own leaders, unlike your "cattle" who are forced to make decision, so which one sounds more like moronic catlle to everyone else? I think we should let everyone else make that decision. Pierre Cremieux, Chairman of the Progressive Federalist Party |

| Date | 03:35:50, December 02, 2007 CET | From | Dobré Podnikatelia | To | Debating the Readying Our National Forces Against the Invasion from Deltaria |
| Message | We apologize for what Deltaria has ruthlessly approved in our nation. Let one thing be sure, the will of the majority of Deltarians and the Right Lutherans Party are against violating our borders. We wish to further improve the relations between Jelbania and Deltaria so that we may live together as allies. |
| Date | 17:16:53, December 02, 2007 CET | From | Centre Démocratique | To | Debating the Readying Our National Forces Against the Invasion from Deltaria |
| Message | We are pleased to see that through the actions of the Right Lutherans Party and the People's Communist Party that there are voices of reason within Deltaria. Let's hope they can do what is in their power to change this situation in their own nation, so that Jelbania is not affected. |

| Message | Hm. So we are to be invaded after this legislature has relinquished it's first-strike option capability with nuclear, biological and/or chemical weapons? Had we had an aggressive military policy, we wouldn't ever have a nation so much as look at us wrong. But all you pacifists parties see the world through rose-colored glasses. By Christ we are all reaping what you have sown. Anyway, those mistakes are in the past, but I pray to God you've learned from them. Nevertheless, we must put political differences aside for what is to come. I believe that sitting around on our asses waiting for an invasion is a surefire way to fail Jelbania and suffer far more deaths than is necessary. We must proceed with a pre-emptive strike and ensure that we take the battle to them. We cannot allow them breathing room to come up with the best strategy to destroy us. We cannot give them a moment to plan. I suggest an immediate full-scale mobilization and a full-scale pre-emptive strike by our air-force on all sensitive targets within Deltaria. We believe before we must fight Deltaria in its full capacity we must target it's industries and begin carpet bombing their major cities and military production facilities. This is no time for pacificsm and weakness. I pray to Christ you pacifist lot will see us through the dark days ahead. --(Retired) Gen. William Hornathew Buck, Former Minister of Defense |

| Message | We are completely against the first strike strategy proposed by the CUF, and we strongly agree with the alternative proposed by the PFP. In our opinion we should first of all give our aid to the Deltarian Liberation Front, maybe with an intervention of our special forces. In addition we are waiting for the international damnation of the actual government of Deltaria , and we can't give to our enemies the diplomatic advantage of a preventive invasion.

| Message | Ladies andGentlemen, may the IPS informs the honourable body of Jelbania that Deltaria never give a damn penny about international damnation as long as there is no military back power behind ? The only way to minimize the damages is to strike first as soon as Jelbania noticed Deltaria's mobilization Sincerely Philippus of Assedo House of Assedo IPS |

| Message | Ok, then UPDATE: The People's Communist Party has guaranteed to veto the Declaration of War on Jelbania legislation which is expected to pass by a vote of 53-47. With this veto, there will be no authorization of any war against Jelbania. However, the risk of a civil war by the Fear an Corruption Party looms, they will wish to use a Junta to unseat the HoS and authorize this war. |
