Title: Stronger Empire

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

Category: International Security

Proposed by: VIP Republic

The World Assembly And the Security council should not hog it's power! I

I say they distribute their power to different nations.

We should give each Nation power!

If they abuse it! We take it Away!

THAT IS WHAT WE SHOULD DO!!!!

Does nothing. The world assembly effectively has no "power"
What even is power in this case? It lacks definition.

As of this date, to ban public nudity and violent demonstrations.

Also, contradiction of existing resolutions?

Since it doesn't do anything, no contradiction, but even if it did do something, I'm quite sure the current freedom of assembly thing only protects peaceful demonstrations, so no contradiction. What public nudity has to do with violent demonstrations, I've no clue.

Observing the increase in space programs,

Realizing the possibility of forced landing in hostile territories due to emergencies,

1. Defines the following terms:

a. "Spacecraft", as in any commanded and controlled object crossing the Karman Line, 100 km (62 mi.) above the Mean Sea Level, for any duration and portion of its flight;

[Bears Armed]

Also, are "Mean Sea Level" and "Karman Line" RL references?

'Mean Sea Level', no, because any world with seas would have one.
'Karman Line', yes, because it uses the name of a RL person that (unlike, for example, 'biro', 'hoover', or 'volt'...) hasn't yet passed into widespread enough use to lose its upper-case first letter.

So how long will "Repeal GA 8" remain in the illegal list?

[Sail Nation]

Technically speaking, is 'Repeal Promotion of Recycling" illegal because it has an operative clause even though it is a repeal or am I misinterpreting it?

[Merni]

Technically speaking, is 'Repeal Promotion of Recycling" illegal because it has an operative clause even though it is a repeal or am I misinterpreting it?

The legislating in a repeal rule only prohibits actually attempting to regulate something in a repeal, not operative clauses which "hope" that something happens, nor "hereby repeals" clauses. So that proposal should be fine.

Category: Repeal
Resolution: GA#8
Proposed by: Jolitia

General Assembly Resolution #8 “World Assembly Headquarters” (Category: Political Stability; Strength: Mild) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

RECOGNIZING that the resolution promotes World Assembly Nations with an image of unprofessionalism.

UNDERSTANDING that through statements such as those below we are encouraging an unflattering stereotype that could lead to non-WA nations to continue there lack of support.

OUTRAGED that GA #8 says, in relevant part:

"Ignoring the findings of a recent census of WA diplomats, revealing a disturbing prevalence among international envoys of "drunks, stoners, weirdos, military fruitcakes, sex addicts, rejects, dear little kiddies, honest family types" and militant machistas"

NOTICING that the resolution demands compensation for its use which could allow for unequal opportunities between nations with a high and low GDP.

FURTHER NOTICING that the previous resolution gives significant power over not only individual nations but the World Assembly as a whole and acknowledging the dangerous implications that could occur with this power.

THEREFORE in the best interest of all World Assembly Nations; big or small, THE WORLD ASSEMBLY REPEALS General Assembly Resolution #8."

Same problem as the last repeal: assuming someone (presumably the OBM) is given "significant power over...the World Assembly."

The assertion that a nation with a "low GDP" can't afford to rent an office suite is also a bit baffling.

Usage of Nukes on Non-Innovative Countries

Intel from my spies in east Bosnia and Northern Russia have found that some countries have not been using innovative nastro desks, not implementing ILG brainwashing programs and worst of all not attempting to rescue lime scooters from rivers and streams. Yes, Yas was given some vegan pond water to calm her down so don't worry. Anyway, in punishment for not introducing such measures as part of their countries, we shall nuke them all until all buildings crumble in ruins, and then nuke them some more to punish them for not jumping in to rescue their lime scooters. (As per request of Yas). Then we shall build thousands of Junior Secondary and IT rooms over the rubble. It shall be a glorious day
