[PASSED] Repeal "Condemn General Halcones"

Postby Kaboomlandia » Thu Aug 17, 2017 7:52 am

Repeal “Condemn General Halcones”

Category: Repeal | Target: SC #165 | Proposed By: Kaboomlandia


The Security Council,

Noting that General Halcones was the founder and leader of The Black Riders, a defunct raider organization which has been condemned by this council on two other occasions,

Acknowledging the thousands of regions raided by The Black Riders under the leadership of General Halcones,

Disturbed that many of these raids were executed using Predator, a weapon developed by General Halcones which informed raiders with a high degree of accuracy when to move into a region to capture it, and which was later found to be in contravention of international law,

Disgusted that even before Predator was found to be illegal, the nation of General Halcones was obliterated and the leader prevented from ever founding another nation as punishment for using recruitment methods for The Black Riders that are prohibited by international law,

Appalled that after being permanently sanctioned by the international community for the April 2015 recruitment scandal, the leader of General Halcones continued to subvert the raider community by covertly distributing the Predator weapon to other nations, resulting in an even bigger controversy in April 2016 that resulted in dozens of countries and a handful of regions being instantly obliterated,

Knowing that the raider community sees condemnation badges as rewards,

Believing that those nations, including General Halcones, who use methods that violate international law to carry out raids, do not deserve to be recognized by this Council,

Hereby repeals Security Council Resolution #165.


Step 2 of my project to eliminate the condemnations related to Predator. As is the case with this kind of thing, I think I got all the R4 stuff legal but I’m not sure. Comments and suggestions are welcome.

Just a slight modification to make it more IC. You may also want to consider removing one of the 'ever's in this clause so that it flows better. Unconditional support nonetheless.

Full agreement. Shouldn't condemn nations/regions that break rules.

Made a slight edit to remove one of the "superweapon" mentions, since it looked repetitive at a glance.

I flipped the phrasing around and merged two clauses into one, so hopefully it flows better now. :)

Yeah, I would avoid using "superweapon" for this reason if possible.

I changed it to "weapon", since that was what I used for the other draft on Gest's condemnation.

I'm not offended. Believe me, for those who were around back in 2015, I was a total noob back then.
