| Message | Nuff said, privatise the defence industry and stop wasting money on nucler shelters that dont work anyway. The money saved would be enourmous. Also if our glorious military are to have any ability that makes them worth while they must have first strike abilities. We cannot wait to be hit before we strike, such is suicide. |

| Random fact: Particracy does not allow real-life brand names (eg. Coca Cola, McDonalds, Microsoft). However, in the case of military equipment brand names it is permitted to use simple number-letter combinations (eg. T-90 and F-22) borrowed from real life, and also simple generic names, like those of animals (eg. Leopard and Jaguar). |
