Assalam o Alaikum!
I hope my message finds you in the best of your health. Shawal moon has been sighted and tomorrow shall be Eid. I wish all the Muslims of Eladen a very Happy Eid ul Fitr.
Unfortunately, many parts of the Muslim world welcome this festival with wounded hearts and tearful eyes. The pain and situation of our brothers in these countries, particularly in Iraq, Syria, Palestine, Yemen, Egypt, Libya and Somalia, overshadow our joy. Hopefully, these blessed days will become a cause for the salvation of our brothers and a reason for humanity to be looking forward to the future in peace and security of all mankind to be looked forward to the future.
May Allah accept our good deeds, forgive our transgressions and ease the suffering of all our brothers and sisters around the globe. Remember your brothers in your prayers. Allah be with you!
Regards,
Turkhestan,
Prime Minister of United Empire of Islam.
Safer space without more military or police? Sounds good to me.
Thank you! And a Happy Eid ul Fitr to you!

Repeal "Prohibiting Animal Abuse"
Applauding the World Assembly’s stance on the paternal and protectively patronising treatment of animals,
Bemoaning the inherent problems and uncaught exceptions of large overreaching legislation, not matter the author, and,
Believing that the provisions set forth in this resolution are too broad and in the end, self-destructive of animal and sapient rights,
This most august and renowned World Assembly,
Objects to the current state of affairs, where sapient beings are not given the same overarching protections as non-sapient animals;
Protests against the whiff of moral supremacy in the resolution, deciding the morals and requirements of all nations based on the morality of a subset of World Assembly members, thereby committing a crime against cultural diversity in preventing cultures from exercising their religious and societal traditions;
Considers that the resolution's prohibition of self-defence against animals as harmful to sentient populations, since:
the killing of an animal which is attacking a person would clearly be an intentional actions which inflicts physical trauma or intense pain on an animal,
this is not itself not excepted in clause (3), the clause which contains exceptions placed there to appease certain outspoken members of the World Assembly,
and thus, prohibits the killing of an animal in the case of an attack;
Chuckles at the imprecision of the definition of animal in this resolution, as jellyfish, a collection of microscopic species of non-person animal, are given the protections of this resolution, even when they lack a nervous system capable of feeling pain or many other types of negative stimulus;
Seriously recognises the implications of the above clause, as this would mean that the definition of animal would include all manners of species which are poisonous, invasive, or destructive to ecosystem health and hence grant the same protections to those undesirable types of animal;
Derides the doublethink necessary to state in the same resolution that (i) all abuse of sentient non-person mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, or fish should be prohibited in clause 2, (ii) unless the animal is raised for butcher, slaughter, or the killing of persons, in clause (3).b and (3).e and thus, all right;
Observes that in cases where animal reproduction or needs is not entirely understood, putting an animal in a zoological garden is illegal, since this would endanger the 'long term health and safety of the animal' in clause 4;
Hopes that this resolution is to be replaced by a more acceptable alternative without the flaws of this current resolution;
Repeals this unfortunately flawed yet well-intentioned resolution which prohibits animal abuse.
Voting ends in 3 days.
I'm against.
No please.

New Resolution at vote:
Protection of Sapient Rights
The General Assembly,
Applauding the efforts to secure rights for all sapient beings, regardless of race, and the many efforts not to limit such rights to only beings of the homo sapiens species;
Nevertheless Concerned at the many attempts to restrict the rights of sapient beings for purely racial reasons, including but not limited to attempts to restrict the rights of sapient machines and an attempt to make human decisions necessary in the warfare of non-human species;
Reminding the members of the WA that legislation applying only to humans has been passed before, such as the now repealed GA#16 "Sexual Privacy Act";
Believing that to secure once and for all the rights of sapient beings everywhere, a resolution is needed to affirm these rights;
Defines:
"Sapient Being" as any entity possessing both a) the ability to reason and act with appropriate judgement and b) sentience.
"Sentience" as the ability to feel, perceive, or experience subjectively.
"Existing international laws" as any passed World Assembly Resolutions which are extant and not void at the time an individual may read this resolution, whether those resolutions have been passed before or after this resolution was passed.
And Hereby Declares that any sapient beings found inside member nations are not to be denied any of the rights guaranteed to humans or sapient beings by existing international laws, and that no member nation may discriminate against sapient beings for reasons of race or species alone.
Clarifies that it is the responsibility of individual member nations to determine whether a given entity is a sapient being, but that such methods of determination must apply equally to humans and any other entities examined.
Further Affirms that sapient beings shall be recognized in the eyes of the World Assembly as living beings, regardless of biological status.
Voting ends in 3 days.

I made the top 5% tourist destinations! There must be a lot of sadists out there!

Repeal World Space Administration
Noting that the target Resolution was drafted in an attempt to promote space travel by Member States,
Recognizing that the Resolution not only fails in this goal, but also harms existing space programs of Member States,
Objecting to the Resolution's claim that Member Nations need cooperate in order to explore space, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary,
Concerned that with the inclusion of clauses that give the W.S.A authority to regulate the Interstellar and Interplanetary exploration of Member States, the Resolution cripples the ability of Member States to conduct their own Space Programmes,
Further Concerned that while the Resolution authorizes the W.S.A to regulate the Space Programmes of Member States, it fails to specify any regulations,
Extremely Confused by the Resolution's use of "Preformed", which makes many of the goals stated within the resolution impossible,
Noting that the Resolution demands that Member States disallow the use of vessels in a state of disrepair, without exception regarding vessels damaged in space or other unavoidable circumstances,
Further noting that the target Resolution contains numerous grammatical errors, which hinder comprehension of the Resolution,
Hereby Repeals General Assembly Resolution # 336, World Space Administration.
Voting ends in 3 days.
Quite a lot of people have telegrammed me about this, and they have polarizing views. It's kind of hard to decide whether or not we should be repealing this. For the record, we helped vote this resolution into fruition, a couple of weeks back.
I say vote for the appeal. WA will have to spend more on administration to bring another resolution to vote. I like when they waste money. It's like the real one!
No to the repeal.

National Economic Liberties
Acknowledging the importance of economic actions and the ability for strong economies to guarantee good standards of living for its actors,
Recalling this Assembly's many resolutions and particularly GA Resolution 68, National Economic Freedoms, but,
Conceding that the World Assembly has an extremely strong role in economic freedoms as it can set worldwide policy and prices for goods and services,
This august World Assembly, subject to limitations created by prior resolutions of the World Assembly, hereby
Defines, for the purposes of this resolution, 'World Assembly' to mean the General Assembly and all committees and subcommittees thereof as well as all institutions and organisations created by the World Assembly and accountable to the World Assembly;
Prohibits the future imposition of:
any compulsory contribution to the revenues of the World Assembly (including, but not limited to, taxes or fees based on income, gross domestic product, imports, exports, or wealth) by the World Assembly for a non-general purpose and
any fixed, static, percentage-based, or pegged price regime on goods or services by the World Assembly;
Forbids the World Assembly from levying future mandatory payments on member nations for:
products or services rendered by the World Assembly outside of World Assembly property or
services rendered by the World Assembly to member governments;
Clarifies that nothing in this resolution is to be interpreted as prohibiting the compulsory contribution of funds for general purposes or levying of fees for the use of World Assembly properties by World Assembly delegations;
Expands the Impartial Mediation Foundation's (IMF) scope to include the mediation of financial and funding disputes between the World Assembly and member nations;
Directs member nations to prohibit egregious examples of insider trading and take actions to liberalise market information.
Voting ends in three days.
Yes.
Post self-deleted by Undivulged Principles.

Access to Humanitarian Aid
Aggrieved by the horrors of war and conflict in the world; yet,
Inspired nevertheless by the presence of humanitarian and relief organizations seeking to lessen the suffering of innocents affected by armed conflict;
Determining the deliberate refusal of international charity and aid to civilians to be as much a violation of human rights as deliberately inflicting conditions contrary to life on a population;
Defining Humanitarian operations as operations by international organizations devoted to ensuring survival of those directly affected by a crisis stemming directly or indirectly from armed conflict, including provision of material aid and the services of trained personnel, with the intention of alleviating suffering and offering these services charitably and impartially.
Declares that member nations shall:
Allow humanitarian operations within territory affected by a crisis directly resulting from armed conflict which falls under their effective control when their own efforts to contain the crisis are insufficient, and facilitate their efforts in a fair and non-discriminative manner, without interference or punitive action.
Ensure the right of individuals affected by these conflicts to utilize humanitarian operations’ facilities and supplies in a humanitarian manner, free from hindrance.
Consider it a war crime, and therefore illegal, to intentionally deprive individuals of humanitarian aid supplies, or prohibit their use or distribution, except in cases where reasonable alternatives can be substituted, such as in instances of controlled substances or dietary restrictions.
Consider it a war crime, and therefore illegal, to deliberately target, assault, injure, or detain the personnel, or deliberately seize, damage, or deliberately divert the equipment of humanitarian organizations while they operate within the capacity of their duties, unless one of the following conditions are met:
• Personnel fail to remain impartial, neutral and non-aggressive parties to the conflict or crisis. Acting in self-defense shall not be considered a violation of neutrality for personnel, provided the act does not exceed the purview of reasonable and immediate self-defense.
• Personnel and equipment is not clearly marked with clear and recognizable identifying markings indicating their status as neutral parties.
• Personnel or equipment fail to meet the standards and requirements of safety and public health pursuant to the applicable international regulations, or, in the case of personnel, have an outstanding warrant.
The International Humanitarian Aid Coordination Committee shall be expanded to:
• Assume control of a multilateral relief operation involving multiple international humanitarian organizations and work in concert with the host nation to best address the needs of the affected population.
• Act as liaison between the individual humanitarian organizations involved and the host government(s) to prevent unnecessary conflict between government and humanitarian operation personnel.

Lots of resolution's. No for this.
That resolution seems very controlling. No.
The WA is like running on a treadmill. It never seems to go anywhere.
I agree. And the resolutions aren't even binding whatsoever.
