Condemn The New Inquisition
A resolution to express shock and dismay at a nation or region.

Category: Condemnation | Nominee: The New Inquisition | Proposed by: Cormactopia Prime

---

The Security Council:

Acknowledging that The New Inquisition is currently dormant, but recognizing the possibility The New Inquisition could rise again to pose a threat to other regions;

Denouncing The New Inquisition for pursuing imperialism through acts of duplicitous subversion, unprovoked aggression, and wanton destruction against peaceful, sovereign regional communities throughout the world, including as a constituent region of the former United Imperial Armed Forces (UIAF);

Reproaching The New Inquisition for once establishing a formal alliance with The Black Riders and maintaining a close military partnership with The Black Hawks, both previously condemned by this Security Council for their acts of regional destruction, acts at times supported by The New Inquisition;

Rebuking The New Inquisition for the following deplorable offenses against interregional peace and goodwill:

• Support for the Crimson Order, a rogue regime led by Lewis and Clark, which perpetrated a more than two month long coup d'etat against the constitutional government of The North Pacific;
• Support for and formal alliance with the Empire, a rogue regime led by Lady Phedre, which perpetrated a more than four month long coup d'etat against the constitutional government of The East Pacific;
• Declaration of war against The North Pacific to support allies the Empire and Gatesville, which had also declared war against The North Pacific;
• Absurd claims of sovereignty over Valhalla, used to rationalize war against the Founderless Regions Alliance (FRA) and its member regions, which once included Lazarus and the Rejected Realms;
• Occupation of Belgium to use as a staging ground for invasion of the Rejected Realms, the latter invasion including the use of involuntary conscripts forced to participate without their knowledge or consent;
• Subversion of the community and government of Lazarus by a senior official of The New Inquisition, without censure from the government of The New Inquisition, ultimately resulting in the expulsion of this official and other citizens of The New Inquisition from Lazarus;
• Support for the Imperium -- a rogue regime led by The Dourian Embassy, which at the time was controlled by a puppet government answerable to Nevadar and Durkadurkiranistan II of Gatesville Inc, and which perpetrated a one month long coup d'etat against the constitutional government of Osiris -- providing significant military support and strategic data to deliberately prolong the coup;
• Termination of an alliance with the South Pacific due to ratification of a treaty of mutual defense between the South Pacific and the Rejected Realms, which at the time had a chilling effect on the sovereign right of other prominent allies of The New Inquisition to formalize alliances with Lazarus and the Rejected Realms;
• Assertion of illegitimate claims to sovereignty over Concosia to rationalize war against the United Defenders League (UDL), following attempts by the UDL to liberate Concosia from forced colonization by The New Inquisition;
• Use of wars against the FRA and the UDL to rationalize invasion and occupation of countless regions throughout the world, often with little or no actual connection to the FRA or the UDL, including but by no means limited to the following regions that have previously endured UIAF occupation: The True Rebirth, Middle Earth, New Zealand, Australia, Slavia, Scotland, Slavya, Canada, and Eastern Europe;

Declaring The New Inquisition to be among the most belligerent and dangerous regions in world history, and desiring to place an enduring censure upon the actions of its bellicose, imperialist regime;

Hereby Condemns The New Inquisition.

Subversion by high profile officials of The New Inquisition of the community and government of Lazarus for the purpose of asserting and maintaining imperialist hegemony over the region, ultimately resulting in the expulsion of these subversives from Lazarus;

Was TNI alive for NLO/UDoL?

Because I'm pretty sure that was the exact excuse the NPO, of all people, used to purge nearly all imperialists and raiders. Any base for this claim, aside from the NPO's propaganda?

There are logs of North East Somerset talking to Unibot in 2012 about TNI "holding" Lazarus:

MSN LOGS FROM: 2012-10-03
NES: Anyway, this is the past, what of the future
Clearly the NPO regard the UDL sphere as a threat. But what of the independent sphere? TNI is at "war" with the UDL. Maybe we are just to small and ill-equipped to have any influence on this all anyway
But the real problem is that members of the UDL-sphere are so anti-independent sphere, and we are so anti-UDL sphere. These squabbles take priority over any wider interests
And thats as much because of your closed-minded labelling of us as evil invaders, as it is our fear of the UDL sphere
I guess you see it as a kind of triangle today: UDL (& defenders)- NPO - Raider barbarians.
The independent sphere is just the modern Gatesville
Unibot: I think both Gatesville and NPO were independent. More so than TNI is or ever will be
NES: Not sure I follow
Unibot: PRP was practically defender
NES: Right, well I just meant they acted as independent powers. Which Gatesville also did. Nothing to do with defender raider labels. Thats irrelevant in this context
Unibot: GV also raided, like TNI does
NES: Sure, but never mind raider-defender stuff right now. I suppose there is room for comparison. GV worked with NPO throughout the struggles of course. They only fell out right at the end after the ADN collapse
Unibot: TNI and NPO could be allies
NES: If history is to repeat itself. Then, yes. If NPO respected TNI' presense in Lazarus or Balder. But history led to years of stagnation and ruined the feeders
Unibot: Which it really has not
NES: It clearly regards TNI as incompetent and unable to hold these places in face of the UDL. Which may or may not be true. I know if I left things to my colleagues we would see a repeat of history. But we could possibly change history, here in this room, in this chat.
NES: Or I could just defect to the UDL... orly But I doubt you'd have me

Before anyone has an "AHA!" moment, yes, these logs were revealed as part of The NPO's Retort in September 2013. That of course doesn't matter at all, because the NPO revealing them doesn't change what NES actually said in the logs. That will, of course, not stop Evil Wolf & Co. from insisting a clause sourced with NES' own words is somehow "NPO propaganda" simply because someone from the NPO posted the logs. That's ludicrous, obviously, but I've come to believe the "L" in LWU stands for "Ludicrous" and not "Lone" as we've all been told over the years. A clever ruse, but we're onto you now.

Armaros wrote:Full support for this proposal. TNI very much deserves a condemn.

Neither of you have done anything in-character significant enough to warrant condemnation, as your list of gameplay accomplishments is basically zero, and I'm against OOC condemnations. Nobody wants in-character villains lumped in with... well, people like you two. So that'd be a no from me.
