The General Assembly,

NOTING the destructive power of a nuclear bomb and how it may harm a nation or region intensely.

STATING that nuclear bombs are a decent last resort strategy, and can be used if a liberation war or a general war does not end quick and decisively.

ALSO STATING that condemned nations in the Security Council are hereby prohibited to owning nuclear and atomic missiles, bombs or any type of nuclear or atomic, as it is an incredibly dangerous thing to place in the hands of a disliked nation.

HEREBY DECLARING the right to own, produce and use nuclear and atomic bombs, missiles or any kind of weapon with a nuclear or atomic warhead attached as a last resort weapon, while keeping who have the right to own such destructive weapons away to a limited few people.

Does this duplicate napa?

Metagaming for mentioning Security Council and condemnations.

For the record, the nation was DEATed for that.

Just mentioning gameside regions is a Metagaming violation. RL Reference violation for Medicaid and Medicare, also somewhat at least duplicates Quality in Health Services.

EDIT: It also amuses me greatly that someone thinks applying Medicaid and Medicare would equal to creating a universal healthcare system, or that if universal healthcare system was created as per A1, that Medicaid and Medicare would be needed at all.

[Bears Armed Mission]

That's why proposals with "Urges" clauses can be used -- and have been used -- as blockers against the possibility of proposals with "Requires" clauses on the same subject.

"Urges" = "We would like you to do this, but you don't have to if you don't want to"
"Requires" = "We are telling you to, and you don't have any choice."
Clear contradiction.

I dunno. This kind of sticks in my craw a bit. Do you have an example of an urge clause that was specifically used as a blocker against a future requirement?

The clause in 'Sensible Limits on Hunting' that I complained the 'inhumane Weapons' proposal contradicted was included with the intention of blocking any future attempt by the WA at banning any specific forms of hunting...

[Araraukar]

The clause in 'Sensible Limits on Hunting' that I complained the 'inhumane Weapons' proposal contradicted was included with the intention of blocking any future attempt by the WA at banning any specific forms of hunting...

The proposal you're objecting to is not about hunting.

Also, I bumped up the proposal's thread, maybe this discussion can move there to avoid cluttering this thread. Here: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=410315

Repeal: “Radiological Terrorism”

A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.

Category: Repeal

Resolution: GA#289

Proposed by: Mentukokuo

General Assembly Resolution #289 “Radiological Terrorism” (Category: International Security; Strength: Mild) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

The General Assembly,

In accordance with World Assembly Laws, I move for the repealing of Radiological Terrorism.

The creation of Radiological Weapons should not be restricted and the usage of it should be changed in accordance to the following bylaws.

A. Following requirements are required to have been met in order to have Radiological Weapons used:
1. Nations defense is compromised.
2. Warfare does not spread to neighboring nations.
3. Nuclear weapons are required to be under 10,000 Kilotons.
4. Weapons must be tested and allowed by Security Council.
5. Economy of nation must be deemed sufficient enough to maintain the Radiological Weapons.
6. Workers safety must be maintained at safe level.

Limitations this set result in usage of Radiological Weapons are allowed partially but complete restrictions do not exist.

Nations must comply.

Branding. is it setting rules in a repeal? Clause 3 just make me want to face palm as instead of saying 10000 kilotons he could say 10 tons. Oh and possible napa violation.

Also, Meta-gaming for its proposed [mis]use of the Security Council.

Halting Nuclear Arms Multiplication

A resolution to slash worldwide military spending.

Category: Global Disarmament

Strength: Strong

Proposed by: Kazchichyastan

Alarmed by the large boost in States in attempt to gain nuclear capabilities

Recognizing the danger of states gaining nuclear weapons

Noting with deep concern that a proliferation of nuclear weapons increases the risk of World War

Reminding delegates of the important role Mutually Assured Destruction has played since the atomic bomb's invention

Affirming that nuclear weapons should never be created for the sole intention of being used

Emphasizing the importance of all nuclear powers having a safe and responsible protocol surrounding nuclear arms

Deeply disturbed by the enormous destructive potential of these weapons

Believing that the international community has an important role to play in preventing nuclear escalation.

1) Recommends that all members of the WA respect safe and legitimate nuclear programs, both in energy and weapons, which will henceforth be known as the Kazchic Principles

2) Declares that independence in these areas must be respected for all states following the Kazchic principles.

3) Proclaims that the international community should actively regulate state nuclear programs to check that it follows the Kazchic Principles.

4) Endorses the creation of a body to intervene in situations where the Kazchic principles are not followed.

4a) This body shall be known as the Force Acting Transregionally to Moderate all Nukes (FAT MAN)

4b) FAT MAN will have a network of inspectors active in all nations suspected to have nuclear capabilities

4c) States which refuse to co-operate with FAT MAN shall be liable to sanctions

4d) The FAT MAN committee will be able to recommend that a state not following the principles be sanctioned.

5) Implores the International community to support the principles of the Kazchic protocol and the actions of FAT MAN in order to protect all nations.

Third time is not the charm. Despite being told twice previously, and very specifically, that their "Kazchic Principles" and Kazchic protocol" are branding, it has been resubmitted for a third time with the illegalities intact from the previous two submissions. It could also be argued that their "Force" could be an attempt to crate an international military or police. This stands as a Grade A example as to why drafting should be done on the forums and is highly recommended.

Sorry, tired brain - the first thing to get shut off tends to be the irony detector. Sarcasm detector lasts only moderately longer, mostly because my tired brain also finds it amusing to respond seriously to sarcasm...

SUNNY SHIPS

A resolution to improve world security by boosting police and military budgets.

Category: International Security

Strength: Mild

Proposed by: Cisplatinaa

I would like to propose the use of technological means (maps, satellite images, and all kinds of communication) to promote a global maritime and naval communication network on open seas where there are in fact sunk ships that may be the cause of accidents in international waters.

This proposal is not intended to promote any act of punishment against the different reasons for sinking of ships of any nature whether maritime or naval.

I wish to propose that the constant use of these navigational instruments in an adequate and safe way, helps prevent future accidents, as well as avoid loss of human, animal and economic lives for the countries.

So I want to propose along with the proposal that the nations that may have their ships sunk is for any reason, issue data on the case in communication networks over the internet, radio, written and spoken networks.

We have no objective here to promote any act of judgment on the causes and reasons as well as the damages caused in the marine nature.

1 - Being in international waters in case the vessel has satellite communication, it constantly receives in its electronic maps the update of these points of sunken ships, with approximate information with information of date, time and type of vessel and cargo

2 - On vessels without such instruments it would be advisable to use maps / GPS interconnected with access networks to the maritime databases containing such necessary information.

3 - In the event of sinking with or without survivors, the procedure will be done by naval authorities or any other authority or vessel that passes through the place

We are not proposing the recovery or withdrawal of any type of object that is sunk, since it is known that there are laws for this point, as well as we are not offering the possibility of any kind of prohibition of the use and conditions of the vessels, we also know that there are manifest in the form of laws among nations

A clear case of branding (I).
