The Security Council,

Hailing the residents of Alcatraz, the hereditary custodians of a land of legend, residing in peace and quiet solitude, free from the forces of evil that they fought to beat back for so long in the early days of this world,

Orating the many accomplishments of Alcatraz and those who once resided in it, lighting the way for the earliest days of what could be nominally called the defender movement, setting an example as a lone region that could fight back against seemingly overwhelming hordes of invaders despite their relative size and strength,

Overawed by the stand Alcatraz took in developing the faction that has ensured the balance and resistance against the entropic forces that would chip away at the last vestiges of freedom in our world, its prominent leaders like Vazquez being crucial in the formation of the Alliance Defense Network, the tales of which are enumerated in the lengths of this hallowed chamber and have inspired defenders decades since its beginnings, while also setting the example for early progenitors of those who now bring peace to every corner of the multiverse, with subsequent legends like Nasicournia rising from the platform that Alcatraz set,

Verifying the ingression of criminals and outlaws into Alcatraz on one misty morning, assassins, affiliates, and accomplices from the absolute dregs of the malicious forces, dozens of them now flooding into the cells and prisons they deserve to inhabit, but now rule as their own,

Elucidating this body’s place as the preeminent protector of the prone and unprotected, to break down walls that would otherwise imprison the impuissant and to ensure freedom to all who deserve it, and to bring flaming justice upon those who would degrade and disregard the basest principles and rights all inhabitants of this mortal plane deserve,

Recognizing that Alcatraz, if not saved, will fall into the hands of those it has worked since the dawn of time to fight, a fate no innocent region deserves,

Hereby Injuncts Alcatraz.

Why did "the hereditary custodians of a land of legend, residing in peace and quiet solitude," make their region a frontier, if they wanted it to remain a monument "free from the forces of evil that they fought to beat back for so long in the early days of this world?"

Is it really necessary to describe the raiders with such...colorful language? Raiders raiding does not seem like the sort of activity that ought deserve one to be called "absolute dregs" or "criminals and outlaws" who deserve to inhabit the cells of the most infamous prison in US history.

Honestly, I kinda vibe with this given the context of the raid. The region is called Alcatraz, and the raid theme is a prison break - it makes sense, therefore, to describe the raiders as criminals and outlaws, because in the context of the raid, that makes sense - if it were any other raid on any other region this description would be grossly unacceptable, but given the context and theme that both raiders and defenders seem to have picked up and run with, I, for one, wholeheartedly endorse this splash of character breaking up what have previously been very bland, cookie-cutter proposals for previous raids.
What is a defender without a raider? Nothing.

Well if you say so. Guess this means any post-raid ops can have a speakeasy theme or somesuch thing.

Security Council Vote Recommendation

Part of the Information for WA Voters programme


Resolution at Vote: Injunct Alcatraz
Vote Recommendation: For


Resolution Analysis

Overview
This resolution seeks to prevent the region of Alcatraz from being converted into a Stronghold. Alcatraz holds a special place in history as one of the first regions to join the Defender movement and played a crucial role in the foundation of the Alliance Defense Network, which in turn paved the way for other defender pacts, including Libcord. Alcatraz is currently held by our adversaries in the Brotherhood of Malice (BoM), along with its allied regions in The Black Hawks, Kantrias, Sparkalia, and many more.

Recommendation
We believe a region with such a rich and storied history must be protected from invaders - especially those whom we are currently at war with, namely BoM. This proposal would prevent Alcatraz from being transformed into a trophy region, i.e. eliminating the native population permanently.

For the above reason, the Ministry of World Assembly Affairs recommends a vote For the Security Council resolution at vote, Injunct Alcatraz.
