Bill: The Usage of Bioweapons in Modern Warfare
Details
Submitted by[?]: House of Astredies
Status[?]: defeated
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: March 3318
Description[?]:
| In these trying times of wars and rumors of wars we reserve the right to use nuclear weapons if such a situation should arise yet our current laws about Bioweapons restrict us to use age only in non civilian areas. Do we expect our enemies abroad to do the same? We must be able to use Bioweapons as a detterent and we all know that it is not a detterent if it is not on the table. |

| Message | We should kill civilians "as a deterrent" to their government? And why wait until another nation uses them first? |

| Message | I just thought we should treat Bioweapons the same way we treat our nuclear weapons.If you want me to change my proposal in a way that allows unhindered usage then I would be happy to resubmit the bill if I have your support. |
| Date | 21:37:42, June 10, 2012 CET | From | Beluz Democratic Karavist Party | To | Debating the The Usage of Bioweapons in Modern Warfare |
| Message | I don't think we should attack civilians, and I don't think we should wait for attacks. The current law is fine, in our opinion. |
| Date | 22:34:14, June 10, 2012 CET | From | House of Astredies | To | Debating the The Usage of Bioweapons in Modern Warfare |
| Message | What if the enemy keeps military forces in an area populated by civilians? Do you want us to become helpless? |

| Message | If soldiers stay in their home country, in civilian areas, how does it affect us? They will be there, not here. There is no need for nuclear or biological warfare; we can take other approaches to weeding the soldiers if we need to. |

| Message | They may not have qualms about nuking us into oblivion before sending there troops in. |
| Date | 00:15:13, June 11, 2012 CET | From | Beluz Democratic Karavist Party | To | Debating the The Usage of Bioweapons in Modern Warfare |
| Message | That wouldn't accomplish anything for anyone. |
| Date | 00:19:54, June 11, 2012 CET | From | House of Astredies | To | Debating the The Usage of Bioweapons in Modern Warfare |
| Message | If they didn't want our land or were trying to gain our coders or simply eliminate a potential threat then they would. |
| Date | 00:21:48, June 11, 2012 CET | From | Beluz Democratic Karavist Party | To | Debating the The Usage of Bioweapons in Modern Warfare |
| Message | Beluzia's neutrality prevents it from being a potential threat to anyone. If someone is invading Beluzia, they would want something here, and they wouldn't want to destroy it before they got here. |
| Date | 00:28:19, June 11, 2012 CET | From | House of Astredies | To | Debating the The Usage of Bioweapons in Modern Warfare |
| Message | Gas isn't as destructive as you think and gold is very hard to destroy. |
| Date | 00:43:10, June 11, 2012 CET | From | House of Astredies | To | Debating the The Usage of Bioweapons in Modern Warfare |
| Message | Also this law only permits Bioweapons if we are attacked. Meaning our neutrality no longer exists. |

| Random fact: By default the head of government is the ultimate authority within a national government. In general terms, heads of government are expected to consult with cabinet colleagues (including those from other parties) before making significant decisions but they remain responsible for government action. |
