| Message | "Mr Absolom you make a very valid argument and of course a harmonious world built upon peace is something we all desire. Sadly though most of Terra does not share our vision and many will take any chance available to attack and kill us and our people. Beiteynu is not a violent or an agressive nation but we recognise the need to offer a defence of the Motherland in order to ensure we are safe from the very many nations that would happily see us destroyed." -- Josef Nehushtan |

| Random fact: By default the head of government is the ultimate authority within a national government. In general terms, heads of government are expected to consult with cabinet colleagues (including those from other parties) before making significant decisions but they remain responsible for government action. |
