The legality challenge was about the repeal's numerous mistakes; the grossly offensive part (bearing in mind the author of this repeal has literally - can't make this shit up - roleplayed as Cecil Rhodes's reincarnated spirit in the WA forum and argued in favour of "civilizing backwards...

Can I ask why you immediately stacked against this resolution?

It was never submitted in the first place.

How many SC resolutions relating to Lazarus have there been now?

There are four regions in WALL. Will they be participating in these "talks" about an organization of which they are signatory founding members?

...are you somehow arguing that imposing tariffs (for "legitiment" reasons) constitutes "free market trading"? Protectionism is absolute anathema to free trade. Nonetheless, we're happy this failed.
