To: Leaders and Ministers for Foreign Affairs of the World
From: The Office of Saif Gaddafi, President of West Libya, Caliph of the Caliphate
As my nation looks to re-build following the brutal civil war that rocked my nation and the recognition of West Libya as a fully independent state, it is our intention to reach out to the World through our new embassy program. The newly rebuilt diplomatic district of Tripoli is ready to house your Embassies and Consulates and we encourage all nations to begin the full process of diplomatic relations.
Our nation stands as a beacon in the Arab World, with the instigation of Sharia Law throughout West Libya we have shown the way forward for our people and returned to the ways of God. We stand as a guiding light for all those people, of all faiths, who stand against imperialism, colonialism and Zionism.
Yours Sincerely,
Saif Gaddafi,
President of West Libya
Diplomatic Protocol
Concerning Extra-Territoriality and the Rights of Diplomats
* Embassies and Consulates within West Libya are exempt from local law, are not taxed, and are considered territorially to be partial enclaves of whichever nation is represented by them, however our nation encourages all embassies to consider their actions in our culturally sensitive part of the world.
* All diplomatic officials within West Libya are given diplomatic immunity in accordance with General Assembly Resolution #22 (The Diplomatic Protection Act); subject, of course, to clause 10 of said resolution which prohibits nations from sending diplomats with the express intent of committing crimes of espionage, sabotage or subversion, causing harm to the civilian population, or other related crimes committed outside of a diplomat's duties.
* The West Libyan government reserves the right to, at any time and without being obliged to explain its decision, declare any diplomatic official of any nation a persona non grata. Anyone declared a persona non grata shall be expected to depart from West Libya within 24 hours.
Concerning Staff
* Embassies and Consulates may have a maximum of sixty (60) attachés, assistants, and other diplomatic staff.
* Embassies and Consulates may have a maximum of twenty (20) security staff and armed personnel.
* Embassies and Consulates may have a maximum of twenty (20) service staff (including but not limited to; maintenance, janitorial, and culinary staff).
* Needless to say, there can be only one (1) Ambassador or Consul per Embassy or Consulate.
Concerning Equipment
* A maximum of seven (7) diplomatic automobiles are permitted per Embassy or Consulate.
* All diplomatic automobiles must be less than ten (10) years old.
* All diplomatic automobiles must be road-worthy and properly licensed under West Libyan law. Future legislation that has been proposed may ban women from driving, it is expected this will be abided to.
* A maximum of two (2) diplomatic aircraft are allowed per Embassy or Consulate.
* All diplomatic aircraft must be air-worthy and properly licensed to fly within West Libyan airspace.
* Nations using diplomatic aircraft that are not capable of vertical take-off and landing are expected to pay any storage and parking costs incurred at whichever airports are used. No help can be expected from the West Libyan Ministry of Foreign Affairs in this regard.
* All diplomatic vehicles must be non-military. Armoured vehicles not possessing weaponry are acceptable, however.
* Automatic assault rifles, machine guns and other heavy infantry weaponry are prohibited. Semi-automatic assault rifles, bolt actions rifles, side-arms and ceremonial weaponry are permitted but must be registered with the Department of Defense and Foreign Affairs, special dispensation can be applied for to allow the possession of such weapons.
* Grenades and other bombs are prohibited. However, smoke grenades, stun grenades, and tear-gas canisters are permitted but, again, must be registered.
* Nuclear, radiological, biological and chemical weapons of mass-destruction are prohibited in the strongest degree. Should any such weapons be found on Azano-Lemurian soil, it shall be considered tantamount to a declaration of war from the offending nation.
* Any weaponry requiring more than one person to operate is prohibited.
* Permitted weaponry may not be used outside of the properties of the Embassies or Consulates in which they are kept, except in self-defence. It is prohibited to openly carry weapons outside of Embassies or Consulates (i.e. they must be concealed).
