Bill: Weapons of mass destruction bill
Details
Submitted by[?]: Advancement of the Human Race
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: November 2333
Description[?]:
| Biological and Chemical weapons should never be used. Biological weapons can harm our citizens even though we use it against our enemies, because of (im)migration and the jet streams around the world can carry the virus back to Aloria. Also if we store chemical weapons the storage place can blow up and harm the citizens of Aloria around the plant and the wind would carry the chemical agent all across Aloria. -If we reserve the right to use nuclear weapons for any reason some nations would get paranoid, and would be ready to do a preemptive attack. Its best if our policy be changed to use nuclear weapons when we are attacked, so nations would be deterred to attack us , but not be paranoid that we are going to launch a nuke to their nation. |

| Message | violation of your rights? Do we have the right to throw chemicals to other people to kill them? no we dont have the right to kill people!!!. As for the nuclear reform we are just changing our stance towards our use of nukes. Before we would never launch a nuclear weapon without any motive, and with this reform we are formalising our stance. THere is no violation of your rights..... |

| Message | NO NO NO NO if we are in a war we can use nukes, but we cant use chemical or biological weapons, because they are a double edge sword. A biological weapon could end up back in Aloria. please reconsider your position. |
