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

Category: Repeal | Resolution: SC#188 | Proposed by: Wallenburg

Description: WA Security Council Resolution #188: Condemn Vandoosa shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: Applauding international efforts to combat raiding;

Recognizing that condemnations do little to discourage raiding, and often serve as badges of honor to prominent raiders;

Alarmed at the assertions that Vandoosa participated in raiding Alternate World History and is its current delegate to the World Assembly, both of which are incorrect;

Dismissing the claim that the Glorious Nations of Iwaku have fallen apart due to Vandoosa's actions, considering that the region has not fallen at all, and is actually quite successful;

Questioning Vandoosa's true impact on the international community, and recognizing the lack of evidence for many of the claims in the condemnation of Vandoosa;

Noting the dissonance of condemning Vandoosa for supposedly injuring the Glorious Nations of Iwaku, yet explicitly stating the further injury of this region's activity as one of the condemnation's main goals;

Believing that nations should not be condemned on false pretenses;

Observing no benefit to any nation but Vandoosa itself in the continued existence of SC#188;

The World Assembly hereby repeals SC#188, "Condemn Vandoosa".

We voted FOR the original ( 10000islands.proboards.com/thread/31472/sc-resolution-condemn-vandoosa ) and were going to vote AGAINST an earlier version of this repeal that failed to make quorum ( 10000islands.proboards.com/thread/31792/sc-resolution-repeal-condemn-vandoosa ). Command, I assume we're AGAINST this one as well? Klopstock Kanta Hame Control Witchcraft and Sorcery Louisistan Barry Woonsocket

We rooted him out of there ourselves. The rest of the resolution would similarly seem to be a self-serving, misleading, effort to repeal his condemnation. Against.

[Woonsocket]

Against.

[Louisistan]

AAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH no.

[Witchcraft and Sorcery]

LOL

nope.

[Isles de Taylor]

Strongly against. Vandoosa is a tyraniccal raider. This resolution is making him sound like the holy grail. Our against votes might not work though, as everyone else will repeal this. Precisely why the WA is a joke.

[Paffnia]

The Islands' vote was cast AGAINST this resolution (AKA stomped).

[Elite]

Ha, no.

[Woonsocket]

Barring a last minute rush, this is going down to defeat. It's like 7,000 to 2,000 right now, give or take.

[Splayd]

Definitely AGAINST.
