Please help in any way you can. Thanks!

SHOCKED by their resilience to outside threats.

AMAZED by their ability to lead regions, revolutions, and movements.

THANKFUL that they rebelled against a tyrannous leader.

HAPPY that they are with us and the rest of NationStates.

HEREBY commends Nova Hansa for their great work.

Deputy Prime Minister Mark Patton will be present this meeting to make up for Paul Conerly's absence. "I am firmly against this resolution." Remarks Patton, "And I think it would also be in Conerly's best interest to vote 'against' this resolution. Off the record I'd like to ask 'who wrote this?' - by their logic any idiot could get commended - let's face it, we've all had our fair share of tyrannous leaders, revolutions, and movements."

"Dr. Jameson and the rest of our delegation are deeply troubled by the profound lack of substance in this proposal. This is absolutely unacceptable for a body which would hold itself as the leader of world politics. Clearly, we will be voting to oppose.

"Should the Assembly continue to conduct itself with such vapidity, it may soon find itself with many fewer members."

I dont understand you want us to condemn Nova Hansa right? Then why are you supporting nations that are against this? (OOC: this is a sugar high iced tea condemnation) :?:

Message from Representative Mikael Ogenbond

This brief commendation offers absolutely no legitimate argument for rewarding its nominee. Perhaps Nova Hansa has left a significant impact on the international community, but this resolution mentions nothing of the sort, instead engaging in abstract bloviations that mean nothing to me as an ambassador unfamiliar with the national policy of Nova Hansa. I vote against this resolution, believing its argument insufficient for officially commending any nation.

And the nations of my region agree with this. The proposal does not explain why the nominee deserves a commendation. With the regional poll heavily opposed, I have voted against.

Half probably don't know who Kknight or Coraxion, or Nation of Quebec or Haiku are. I doubt more than 100 nations recognize the name "Nova Hansa".

Fellow WA members,

On the name of the Arpakian People and the Patriotic Socialist Party of Arpak as an excellent representative of its People's Will, I must say...that this "was the last straw".The Arpakian People vote CATEGORICALLY AGAINST this resolution.

Commend WHO??? Another one of those NOBODY consumerist tyrants with an almost NON-EXISTENT presence in the World Assembly? What for, ladies and gentlemen??? To further enhance their imperialistic agenda??? Seriously now, what else are they after, if not greater regional and worldwide influence since they have a virtually NON-EXISTENT presence in the World Assembly???? We want to complain to the Members that allowed for such a ridiculous resolution to be submitted for voting in our Assembly and accuse them of triviality and incompetence.

IT IS UNACCEPTABLE for us to sit, vote and discuss whether another ARROGANT TYRANNIC OPPRESSOR should be commended or not, at the same moment that other crucial issues such as World Hunger or Nuclear Security are ravaging the World. And commended for what exactly? His non-existent contribution to the Assembly? His systematic oppression of the Working People? His inaction towards the deaths of millions from the pest that is World Hunger?? His obvious imperialistic goals and tendencies, as evidenced by the mere existence of this resolution and his remark, that he has DONE WAY MORE THAN WHAT THIS RESOLUTION IMPLIES????.

Well, at least we can "commend" fellow oppressor Prumerica, for being the greatest "kiss-ass" nation in NationStates history. Congratulations, Prumerica, your pitiful nation couldn't possibly sink any lower in order to get the attention of your equally, perhaps even WAY MORE pitiful to the point of comedy ally Nova Hansa.

The triviality that characterizes most of the latest Security Council resolutions that were submitted to vote, saddens the Arpakian People beyond words. What good is the Security Council then if it is reduced with such resolutions to nothing more but a laughingstock?. In addition, I express the wish of the Arpakian People to submit a resolution to "Commend Themselves" since the Patriotic Socialist Party of Arpak has improved their lives greatly, such is the idiocy ,unfortunately, that the Security Council has sank to lately. We also want to submit a resolution for a fundraiser, so that the whole of Nova Hansa and Prumerica can get a luxurious suite, and fulfill their sexual fantasies with each other and leave the rest of us here, in the Security Council, decide for crucial Security issues plaguing our World. Trust us, in the next days you'll have our paperwork for that :).

Jokes aside, the Democratic Republic of Arpak has included Prumerica and Nova Hansa in its Greatest and most IDIOTIC Enemies to the evolution of human civilization list as of today. Well Done.

Now let us move on to more important security issues of the world, such as the pest that are the FASCISTS OF NAZI EUROPA!!!!

Sincerely,
WA Ambassador of the Arpakian People,
Hans Dortman

Proposals like this make it to vote when someone has cash to burn on a telegram campaign. I don't consider this to be an issue of incompetence, but an issue of apathy. Some delegates just approve anything that they are told to without reading them.

The Security Council does not have any power when it comes to issues like world hunger and nuclear security. Those duties fall upon the General Assembly.

That's a bit harsh. Prumerica tried to write it using the correct channels, they just chose a bad candidate and submitted too early. We've seen much worse examples of regional political moves in the SC.

Jesus Christ man. Prumerica wrote a security council proposal that was vague, but far from the worst proposal to have passed through here. Calm the Hell down.

Apologies, fellow WA members...perhaps our statements were slightly more furious than what they should be, but how can we not be overcome with frustration when proposals such as this make it to the table, especially when the Security Council should be more concerned with matters such as Imperialist tendencies that deprive many economically weaker countries of their independence, or expansionist attempts by several nefarious superpowers such as Maxtopia? When people are oppressed by tyrants who defy the decisions of this honorable Council on a daily basis, the apathy of WA members that allow such proposals to make it to vote constitutes nothing short of a crime against the WA itself, ridiculing its own existence as an executive organ of the WA!!! We need to focus our attention on serious matters and not trivial ones such as this, before it's too late for the oppressed and enslaved people of the World, ladies and gentlemen. On behalf of the Arpakian People, I plead with each and every one of you to be more serious when you vote for WA affairs. We need to set people FREE, not make their oppression an easier job for their tyrants by wasting our time discussing trivial matters such as this one. Thank you for your time.

WA Ambassador of the Arpakian People,
Hans Dortman
