Message | To Our Respected Colleagues, The recent reports coming from our neighbor nation, Wantuni are alarming at best. With the recent elections there is an apparent under tide and gathering environment of growth to support and allow the bankrupt idealogical movements of the Nuncirists. Let us not forget fellow members of this respected Republic; we were not always in peaceful times as we have been for decades. The last war and perhaps the bloodiest in our Nation's history was initiated by the parties of the Nuncirist movement. This bill is a step to prepare ourselves for the worse and to enable us a bigger stick when we go to speak with the dignitaries from Wantuni. On behalf of both the Federal Republican League and the Federal Republic of Solentia I urge my fellow parties to vote yea on this to send a very strong signal to Wantuni that we will not let any neighbor in our hemisphere fall into the hands of ideological zealots. Signed, Federal Republican League E. 'Tipp' Wagner, Head of State Ulysses C. Rowlins, Minister of Defense |

Message | To the Representatives of the Conservative and Morality Party and Federal Independent Party, It is quite alarming to see such historically pertinent parties deciding to, in the face of a clear and present danger, decline to protect Solentia from the problems on the horizons. I do so hope that in the next elections those of your supporters take note of your apparent lack of concern for our citizens welfare. Signed, Deputy Minister of State, Costica Vasilica |
