| Date | 12:35:32, July 14, 2005 CET | From | Maroon Party | To | Debating the Bombs. |
| Message | We are a pacifist party and only believe in war when we are directly invaded or attacked; and having nuclear/biochem weapons are the best way of ensuring that we are not invaded or attacked. |
| Date | 13:37:17, July 14, 2005 CET | From | Libertarian Party | To | Debating the Bombs. |
| Message | We would support this. While we are a strongly isolationist party, we believe that our nation should have the strongest military in the world to be used as a deterent and for defensive purposes. |
| Date | 21:48:22, July 15, 2005 CET | From | Free Citizens Alliance | To | Debating the Bombs. |
| Message | While we hope that our nation never has to use chemical, biological, or nuclear weapons, the Free Citizens Alliance believes that our nation has the right to at least have the option of developing them. We would not want to be bound by our own laws from defending our homeland if we were attacked by another nation with weapons of mass destruction. |
