Message | This has been brought up before. We need to use nuclear weapons to protect ourselves from nuclear attacks. Mutually insured destruction. If we have nuclear weapons, we won't be nuked because the crazy people would not want to lose their own nation by attacking us. If we do not have nuclear weaposn, we have no way to adequately retaliate from a nuclear strike on our nation so it will encourage nukes to be used on us! |

Message | If they're genunely *crazy* they won't give a damn about MAD. As long as the people turn out to vote for our clearly defined values, the AGSP sees it as it's democratic duty to keep bringing this matter before the chamber. |
Date | 00:24:36, December 15, 2005 CET | From | Independent Capitalist Party | To | Debating the Ban the Nuclear Menace. MAD is bunk. |
Message | Crazy rulers still want to remain in power and so MAD works. Your one-liner won't debunk something that has kept Terra safe from nuclear war thus far. If they're genuenly crazy the leaders will not disband their nuclear missiles while the free world does. Then they will be able to take over the world! You wouldn't want Deltarian oppressors rulling over all of Terra, would you? We think you proposed this bill just so we're defenseless when your offer to invade Aloria and put us out of power is accepted by someone. |
Date | 15:41:48, December 15, 2005 CET | From | Aloria Green Socialist Party | To | Debating the Ban the Nuclear Menace. MAD is bunk. |
Message | No, we just don't believe in war at all. Your childish accusations will get you nowhere. Aloria has always been a stable country, and we do not want the ICP to come along and change this. By all means, you are allowed to have different opinions, as that is democratic, something which you should learn about. One thing you should not do thopugh, is accuse on of Aloria's oldest and most trusted parties of trying to destroy the country we love. We just don't like nukes! |

Message | We were mislead by false accusations in another bill. Our appologies. |
Date | 20:15:00, December 15, 2005 CET | From | Aloria Green Socialist Party | To | Debating the Ban the Nuclear Menace. MAD is bunk. |
Message | Accepted, thank you. Let's hope it is reason that rules in Aloria from now on. |

Random fact: Particracy does not allow real-life brand names (eg. Coca Cola, McDonalds, Microsoft). However, in the case of military equipment brand names it is permitted to use simple number-letter combinations (eg. T-90 and F-22) borrowed from real life, and also simple generic names, like those of animals (eg. Leopard and Jaguar). |
