From |  First Socialist Party | To | Debating the Military Stance Amendment Bill | | Message | Absolutely not. Are you saying that we should have the capabilities to permanently destroy parts of Terra, and make the lives of millions of innocent civilians hell? We are sickened by your lack of morality. |

From | Libertarian Party | To | Debating the Military Stance Amendment Bill | | Message | History has proven the only defence against nuclear attack is a viable and realistic ability to attack with nuclear capability. Mutually Assured Destruction may well be MAD but is histories only answer.
Of course if the SPH can deliver Terra a 100% nuclear disarmament treaty that is 100% enforceable and is 100% certain of no rogue nations then we will withdraw this treaty. |

| Random fact: It is the collective responsibility of the players in a nation to ensure all currently binding RP laws are clearly outlined in an OOC reference bill in the "Bills under debate" section of the nation page. Confusion should not be created by displaying only some of the current RP laws or displaying RP laws which are no longer current. |
