| Message | If we don't develop them, surely we don't have any to export anyway...? |

| Message | Well we must have many left over from the times of when we developed them, so we can just dispose of them safely now. We should carry on exporting conventional arms though. |
| Date | 01:26:08, October 22, 2005 CET | From | People's Equality Party | To | Debating the Exportation of arms! |
| Message | Even if it is just to clarify this point, the sale of nuclear weaponry should be illegal |
| Date | 02:26:57, October 22, 2005 CET | From | Freedom Party | To | Debating the Exportation of arms! |
| Message | By the way these are CONVENTIONAL weapons we'll be exporting: tanks, machine guns, etc. In any case, the Freedom Party opposes this. Who knows who we might end up giving weapons to? The Deltarian Nazis, perhaps? |

| Message | Just because we'll be exporting them freely doesn't mean we'll be exporting them to EVERYONE. |
| Date | 11:28:47, October 22, 2005 CET | From | Aloria Green Socialist Party | To | Debating the Exportation of arms! |
| Message | Then maybe we should carry on reviewing things on a case by case basis... |
| Date | 23:33:06, October 22, 2005 CET | From | Capitalism Now! Party | To | Debating the Exportation of arms! |
| Message | And maybe we shouldn't. We should be able to trust our neighbours by now. |
| Date | 23:54:06, October 22, 2005 CET | From | Aloria Green Socialist Party | To | Debating the Exportation of arms! |
| Message | Why do they need these arms at all..? |
| Date | 00:13:00, October 23, 2005 CET | From | Capitalism Now! Party | To | Debating the Exportation of arms! |
| Message | Why do we need them? |
| Date | 00:29:44, October 23, 2005 CET | From | Capitalism Now! Party | To | Debating the Exportation of arms! |
| Message | Actually, no, i will admit that last statement was quite foolish. The point of exporting these arms freely is that we can get more money. The do not just get these arms sent to them for free, they do have to pay you know. |
