Details
Submitted by[?]: HaLeumit Tikvah
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: April 2709
Description[?]:
| "Today we announce the death of traitors to Beiteynu. Gilad Shahak and his cronies came to the erroneous belief that their attempts to betray Beiteynu would go unnoticed, that they had the ability to reason with imperialist dogs. They have had to learn that lesson the hard way. In brighter news, the resistance forces continue their glorious work of driving out the Luthori. We honour Aked Frjeknd, the resistances first Pntek suicide bomber, for his martyrdom to the cause of hope, liberty and struggle. That said, we see it as clear that groups within the occupation zone need more support in order to up their effectiveness. Beiteynu has the largest defence budget on Terra; we are therefore proposing that 80 billion BEI per year be given to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to disperse amongst Beiteynuese groups as it sees fit." -Joshua Ben Eliezer |

| Message | The Luthori government finds it appalling that you kill the only people in your government that seem to have brains and have the since to try to negotiate. -Luthori Imperial Government |

| Message | "They had no sense. If they had asked us, we could have told them the result of any negotiation beforehand- and through what information they have given us before their untimely ends, we understand the Luthori better than anyone in Beiteynu. What brains they had now decorate the walls; let that be a lesson to all would-be traitors of Beiteynu." -Joshua Ben Eliezer |

| Message | "Killing people because they do not agree with your view? Yes, that is so not Tyrannical and dictator like." |

| Message | "We resent the accusation that we had anything to do with the death of Gilad Shahak and his allies. The police still have a number of theories on what exactly happened- personally I believe it will come to light that, in order to save what was left of their honour, they committed suicide in the traditional and not-at-all made up Beiteynuese method of setting up a complex array of levers before standing against a wall to perfectly simulate death by firing squad. Of course, unlike the Luthori delegate, we deal only in facts, not speculation, and will wait for the police to finish their investigation rather than throwing about wild and baseless accusations." -Joshua Ben Eliezer |

| Message | "How convenient, they kill themselves and keep the people they called radical Terrorist from killing them, while making you look better. Really, the world and our officials are not that stupid to believe you had nothing to do with it. In fact I really wonder if the people known how fanatical their government is." |

| Message | "You seem to assume we needed to kill them, but really we had no motive to. They had no standing, no power- they went to you for that, and they failed. Hell, the people they talked to would be enough for us to argue they committed treason and have them executed (OOC: In retrospect, I wish that is what I had done with them). They were cowards, and likely did not want to be exposed as the corrupt in a fair court of law; either that, or they were up to some other nefarious dealings with G-d knows who, and they decided to deal with them before they too were exposed. But we deny categorically the continued, baseless claims of Luthori that we had any involvement in their deaths. We only kill animals. And we are voted in precisely because we are fanatical, and will use any means to defend their rights." -Joshua Ben Eliezer |
