[Passed] Repeal "Liberate St Abbaddon"

by **The Dourian Embassy** » Tue Mar 11, 2014 8:12 pm

The Security Council,

Aware that "Liberate St Abbaddon" (SC#134) was passed to battle the then extant threat of The Brotherhood of Malice and a variety of regional armed forces to the region of St Abbaddon,

Understanding that the passage of this liberation helped to end the threat of destruction St Abbaddon was facing,

Knowing that the passage of this liberation, while successful in achieving its goals was also passed under false pretenses, and used as a tool by raider forces to open the region up further,

Cognizant that the liberation of St Abbaddon was passed without input or permission from the region's native residents whom have voiced their desires not to have this proposal in place,

Believing that this liberation is now superfluous, and an insult to the very principals this council stands for,

Hereby Repeals "Liberate St Abbadon"

Co-Authored by The Gatekeeper Ministry of Abacathea

This should be going to vote tonight. Thought I'd make a thread.

Probably. It certainly dissuaded me.

Why Topid may become angry? I thought he was against that Liberation?

I got extremely uncomfortable when reading that long exchange consisting of nothing but SkyDip and Dourian patting each other on the back. :meh:

I'm more annoyed that Doria didn't give me my props here so Dip could be impressed with me too. Damn glory hog.

You must have a low threshold for discomfort.

Tung lets out a loud sigh before standing behind his podium and speaking on this matter.

"Does anyone not realize that raiders would not want to repeal this for nothing? They obviously plan to shut down the region and they obviously want it. I would move a liberation force in right away before the region is shut down."

Clearly you have no idea what's going on or has transpired in St Abbaddon recently.

Aww... poor Aba, not getting the attention he wants.

I see Douria has taught you well.

Flooding the queue was my damn idea >_>

Maybe I should do an Auralia and give myself the attention. (Too soon?

You already have one badge - don't get greedy.

Ok Ok I wont

For the record, Douria cleared the thing faster than I could blink. If there's anyone I want to undertake evil with, it's him!:P

According to reading over the forum guidelines on the security council, isn't this out of its jurisdiction.

Powers

As menioned above, the Security Council can pass three types of resolutions:

Commendations - A resolution to recognize outstanding contribution by a nation or region.

Condemnations - A resolution to express shock and dismay at a nation or region.

Liberations - A resolution to strike down Delegate-imposed barriers to free entry in a region.

Therefore, the power to repeal legislation is not within the security council means or powers.I believe that must be sent and cross applied over to the World Assembly. I know redundant but that's correct bureaucracy.

Incorrect. From the Rules for SC Proposals, rule 2d:

Repeals should address the contents of the resolution they're repealing, and not by just stating the reverse of the arguments given in the resolution.

Ygenovia cannot get involved in this vote. This means I cannot not vote for or against the proposal. I will be remianing neutral. It's none of my business.

Before I vote yes or no on this issue, as someone who isn't that involved in the warfare aspect of Nationstates, I would like to ask: What exactly went wrong in St Abbaddon?

Nothing went wrong in St Abbaddon from my end. You might wanna ask those defender type people though.
