| Message | We're actually against all. Art 1; We must be ready and have vaccines and medicines to treat our people should we ourselves ever be attacked by bio/chem weapons. Art 2; All people should do things to make better their nation, though we would support just national service. Art 3 & 4; Nuclear weapons are our main deterrent against aggressive, Imperialist nations from attacking us, Sekowo must remain strong. Though I'll vote yes for positioning, since it's an area my visibility is'nt excellent currently. |
