The World Assembly,
Understanding that the use of weapons of mass destruction to attack other nations can lead to high levels of death and destruction in those nations,
Noting that many often unsavory nations have proven complicit in using such weapons arbitrarily, and
Realizing that conflict escalation could be avoided should this practice be banned by international law, within the restrictions of previously passed and still extant resolutions, hereby:
- Defines "weapons of mass destruction" as weapons that cause massive structural damage or large-scale loss of life on a scale depending on nations affected by the use of the weapon;
- Clarifies that weapons of mass destruction must cause the necessary damage and/or death to bring this resolution into effect in a single use, a single use being a single strike or series of strikes using WMDs in a localized area; and
- Declares that no member state may use weapons of mass destruction against another member state, without evidence that the other member has recently used (or intends to use in the near future) such weapons against that nation or an allied nation.
