Vote Against SC resolution Condemn General Halcones
Ministry Review
Written by Hms unicorn
You may have noticed from previous telegrams that there is currently a trend of submitting badly written or inaccurate resolutions, but with "catchy" titles and content, to the Security Council. This is another one of those.
Does General Halcones warrant a condemnation? Probably yes. However, we should care not just about the validity of the nominees, but also about the quality and the veracity of the documents passed by the World Assembly.
The resolution uses overly dramatic language ("barbaric") to describe activities that virtually all modern militaries use, in a non-destructive manner, for training. Instead of describing raiding in generic terms, the resolution should have focused on emphasizing the destructive variant of raiding used by The Black Riders. The resolution fails to substantiate its claims, as it could have done for instance by enumerating a few of the many regions The Black Riders have refounded under the instructions of General Halcones. It fails to mention that General Halcones invented many of the currently widely used techniques for timing, which have been instrumental in enabling the destruction of regions. Finally, it makes incorrect claims, in the form of the supposed instructions from General Halcones on how raider delegates should vote in the World Assembly.
For all these reasons, we recommend that you vote against this resolution.
