I'm sorry, but I have to disagree. I roleplay my WA activities (or try to); my OOC view of landmine regulation is a subject for NS General, not the WA. Were I to revive Quintessence of Dust, the nation with which I wrote the original resolution, I would not propose this repeal with that nation. This is a different nation, representing different viewpoints. That there is a lot of OOC/IC mangling in the current WA is unfortunate, but it shouldn't obscure the fact that in character, the nation proposing this repeal has little relationship to the one that proposed the original resolution. The way I've played the relationship in the past is DSR happens to have been assigned the old QoD WA Office in the WA Headquarters by Building Mgmt, and has found a folder full of their old draft proposals and resolution notes.
In any case, I'd prefer the debate to focus on the content of the resolution and repeal, and I think that's actually a stronger case anyway for repeal than trying to pretend I've changed my mind.
Technically speaking, I said "yes it is" and then tried to explain it basically wasn't.
I was trying to show that it wasn't on the basis that "hurr, i dont like it" and that there was a thought process behind that. It certainly wasn't clear.
