Repeal "Condemn Stujenske"
A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.

Category: Repeal | Resolution: SC#174 | Proposed by: Coupy

Description: WA Security Council Resolution #174: Condemn Stujenske shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: The Security Council,

Acknowledging that the original resolution to condemn The Gone Fishin of Stujenske was intended to raise awareness in the World Assembly about the coup d'etat in Lazarus happening at that time;

Noting, however, that the coup executed by the New Pacific Order was short-lived due to the efforts of Kazmr and that the Humane Republic of Lazarus continues to flourish under the leadership of Loftegen;

Further noting that the decision to coup Lazarus was made under a state of impaired judgement, leading many to believe that the following actions were never meant to be serious;

Affirming that Stujenske's participation in the aforementioned coup of Lazarus, largely orchestrated by Milograd, was very limited and that both Stujenske and Stujenske's actions remain irrelevant to the wider community and unworthy of a condemnation;

Recognizing the probability that Stujenske views the condemnation symbol as a "badge of honor", despite the fact that this nation did absolutely nothing to earn it;

Hereby repeals Security Council Resolution #174: Condemn Stujenske.

The 'circumstances' mentioned in the TG are considered to be true. However, I disagree that it should warrant a repeal. The NPO worked for years to seize Lazarus before it couped the place and went all out to hold it. Stu was very much the leader of the enterprise. Against.

[Louisistan]

Hell no!
First and foremost, IIRC, "impaired judgement" translates to "was stoned" and that's pretty much his own fault.
The NPO takeover of Lazarus, although ultimately short-lived, was a most despicable display of imperialism and disregard for regional sovereignty. Every Condemnation (and Commendation Repeal) passed in the course of this was well-deserved and should remain in place.

[Witchcraft and Sorcery]

I agree with Klop and Louis, and they're more informed than I on the inner workings of Lazarus, or if he was stoned or whatever Louis was saying. I do remember, though, that Stu did not have a "minor role." That TG is kinda weird.

Against.

[Elite]

The only argument in that tg that holds any ground is the badge of honour thing, which is an argument that I generally don't care about very much. Against.

[Control]

Against, pretty much for the reasons above.
