| Message | i would argue with your statement above. Our first duty is not to protect only our citizens but the world and its entire population. Why cant we continue to set the peaceful example, which has been followed by many nations, instead of going backwards on this? Do you want to spend money on starting cold wars and encouraging distrust between nations? |

| Message | Exactly...thank you FP. We are elected by our people not the world..if they want a say in our policies..why don't they come pay our taxes? We will not let other people's opinions guide how we spend those tax dollars or dictate to us how we ought to orient our military. |

| Message | No to Nukes. However The RWLP does not believe in this so called 'International Law' our main concern is the people of Likaton and Likaton itself. Likaton is not Bound by any outside laws! Likaton is prompted by the national decency of the Likaton peoples. |
