| Message | Centre directly opposes all three of these articles. It is every individuals right, if found fit for service, to volunteer to defend our great nation. We should not hamper one's will to protect their nation. We should also not allow blatant discrimination to enter into our national institutions. |
| Date | 20:04:54, December 16, 2007 CET | From | Ikradonian Faith Party | To | Debating the Military Reform |
| Message | The IFP would approve of Article 2, but Articles 1 and 3 are needlessly condescending on Ikradonians who want to serve their country with pride. |
| Date | 01:41:48, December 17, 2007 CET | From | Yellow Party | To | Debating the Military Reform |
| Message | Absolutely not. No No No. Way to conservative and as we said on previous bills, out of line with Ikradonian values. |
