Date | 01:36:16, July 29, 2013 CET | From | Great National Republican Guard | To | Debating the Lodamun Above All Act 3522 |
Message | I don't think we should execute captured enemy combatants, or combatants who have surrendered; that will only discourage them from surrendering. They may have important information, they may be able to be used against their own homeland, or we can use their lives for bargaining power (eg. trading them for our own soldiers who have been captured, or trading them for money, or something like that). -- Nigel Anderson, Defence Minister |

Random quote: "The European Union and environmental advocacy groups use global warming hysteria to advance their own special agendas. The European Union recognizes any significant reduction in CO2 emissions by the United States will significantly reduce its economic output, thereby bringing it closer to the inferior output of European nations. Environmental advocacy groups work to stifle economic and industrial progress wherever they find it to inhibit the successful advancement of peoples in developing nations, inevitably making mankind a second class citizen of planet Earth." - Dr. Jay Lehr |
