| Message | If we wait until retaliation we may never use them. What if the enemy hit our weapon depots with WMD's first? |

| Message | We agree. |
| Date | 11:49:30, January 15, 2006 CET | From | National Fascisti | To | Debating the Nuclear weapons act |
| Message | That's like saying "We're not at war currently so let's stop having an army". |

| Message | This not like saying were not at war lets stop having an army an army should be a purely defensive measure as should our policy on WMD's. Furthermore should anyone attempt to strike at our stockpiles it unlikely they could disable them all in one strike we do not store all our weapons in one place and so should one stockpile be hit we would retaliate. |
