| Message | An intelligence agency is not a waste of money i think the government would find a major terrorist attack against our capital city that we knew absolutely nothing about a bigger waste of money. |
| Date | 14:40:35, December 30, 2008 CET | From | Liberal Progressive Party | To | Debating the Intelligence Agency Act of 2688 |
| Message | An intelligence agency can be a extremely useful asset to our nation. Although we do pause & wonder why our "colleagues" in the Nationalists is so fearful of terrorists. Aldegar has for many years pursued a policy of diplomacy & regional peace. During this period we have not suffered a single incident of terrorism. |

| Message | Yes. We prevent terrorism and attacks through diplomacy and maintaining good relations with other nations. On the other hand, intelligence agencies are very prone to be infiltrated by extreme patriots, who tend to be uneasy if there are no threats from 'enemies'. |

| Message | The only reason there has been no terrorists is not because you have used "diplomacy" it is because they cant happen on this game, which is like saying there have been no negative effects on the environment in Aldegar so the Green Party has no reason for existing. There are always some extremist groups who are willing to use force to get their points across, so maintaining "good relations with your neighbours" would most likely do nothing to improve the security of this country as the terrorists are more than likely to come from our own country. |
