| Message | No, by no means! We should show we are better then the rest, that we can be peaceful, that we need not resort to the possibility of using such weapons of mass destruction. We need to tackle it the diplomatic, peaceful way, not this way! Because this way we may even be seen as a threat worth invading unlike how it is now! |
