| Message | Mr. Speaker, Dranland does not have the money at the moment to splash out on a nuclear weapon building programme. Nor would this be in our strategic interests. Taoiseach Aled Pritchard MP |

| Message | Mr Speaker, I pity our poor land, having a coward and tightwad as Taoiseach. Dranland doesn't deserve a leader who views a weak military as being part of our strategic interests. Several countries have these weapons in Terra and we should rejoin the club. Alberto Trujillo DAL Chairman |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, I was not aware that landmines and biochemical weapons were the only means of securing national defense or fighting a battle. It is extremely and astoundingly ill-informed to suggest that the regulations on land mines and biochemical weapons weakens our military. The vast majority of our military operations rely upon other aspects of the military. And even if biochemical weapons were in our arsenal, they'll sit unused since there is no purpose for them. As for landmines, where would we even put them? They are a public danger and there is no logical usage for landmines. The Dranish Military is fully capable of achieving their goals with their normal equipment, there is no need for the addition of unnecessary and especially immoral weapons.

| Message | Mr. Speaker, We are in the process of building a strong military, not a weak military. It is precisely because we want a strong military that we are investing in troops, training and defence equipment rather than wasting billions on a nuclear weapon. Aled Pritchard MP Taoiseach of Dranland |

| Message | Mr Speaker, We should have both - a strong professional army and advanced weaponry which can blow out several enemies at once. When it comes to warfare, it is a sign of weaknesss to preach of moral. I wonder if the dictators would be so moral when the time crimes and they attack Dranland. We saw Luthori nuked by a belligerent dictatorship, let us save Dranland from the same fate if we should be attack. Landmines are highly effective in delaying an enemy's advance and when used by a professional and responisiblemilitary, serve little risk to civilian populations. Why Mr Ryeo thought I suggested these weapons were the only ones used in national defence beffuddles me. If I'm not, the conventional military force is not even reorganised yet.

| Message | Mr. Speaker, Landmines and biochemicals are not advanced. They are crude and out-dated weaponry. There is plenty of alternative military technology with vastly surpasses the technological level of the weapons we are debating. And landmines will not stop enemy advances, they will only endanger rural citizens and farmers. I'm quite certain, too, that if Dranland were invaded, the invading forces would have enough capabilities to avoid any major impact from landmines. You seem to think we are fighting old wars with muskets and horses; the battles go beyond the ground, in fact the greatest dangers are often from above. Landmines are entirely useless. And biochemical weapons are equally useless. They kill and destroy as much as any conventional weapon; the only difference is that biochemical weapons have the additional affect of inflicting harm and illness upon the innocent citizens of the nation we are fighting. Poisoning and murdering foreign citizens will do nothing to advance our military's goals. It will merely portray us as terrorists. Ryeo Yongchae, MP KDF Vice-Chair Member for Elbian |

| Message | Order! The Hon. gentleman [Trujillo] will refrain from addressing other members by their names. Furthermore, his statement that the Rt. Hon. Taoiseach is a "coward and tightwad" is disorderly and I ask him to withdraw. Gwilym Owens MP Speaker of Parliament |
| Date | 00:06:31, November 21, 2013 CET | From | Grand National Party | To | Debating the Full Arsenal Act of 3578 |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, Perhaps the Honourable Gentleman from the DAL would enlighten us by telling us what country or countries he has in mind for firing nuclear weapons at? There is a purpose behind his proposed scheme for weapons of mass destruction, surely? Taoiseach Aled Pritchard MP |
