    DRAFT: Nuclear Transportation Safety Act

    Great starting point! That being said, this does need some work. First, a few basic guidelines. This is not exactly my personal style, but it's the most widely accepted within the General Assembly: always begin with "The General Assembly," and then move into your preamble (which, as I'm sure you...

    At Vote: Repeal "Multilateral Prosecution Act" [Complete] [Complete]

    Jurisdiction doesn't work like that, and someone repealing a resolution that partially covers jurisdiction should know that. Jurisdiction is an inherent characteristic of state sovereignty and its limited by reason and logic (also statute and such, but that's not relevant). If a Mousebumples...

    At Vote: Repeal "Multilateral Prosecution Act" [Complete] [Complete]

    Not a single one of the examples you've provided extends a member nation's jurisdiction. In every situation you've provided (including some non-binding preambulatory clauses?), nothing in the text indicates, either explicitly or otherwise, that the resolution allows a member nation to extend its...

    At Vote: Repeal "Multilateral Prosecution Act" [Complete] [Complete]

    This whole repeal is built on a misunderstanding of stateless individuals and the purpose of multilateral prosecution. Even if member nations could prosecute stateless individuals (which is a dubious claim, despite Mouse's argument that General Assembly resolution imply that basic concepts of...

    At Vote: Repeal "International Criminal Court" [Complete] [Complete]

    Before you go around calling my arguments "dirty politicking," notice that I made the argument before the ruling. And while I don't agree with the ruling, there's really not much more I can do about it. Sorry for any misunderstanding. :blush: However, your argument about compliance is still...

    At Vote: Repeal "International Criminal Court" [Complete] [Complete]

    Hi again, everyone. I just wanted to add my two cents here, because this is a very important resolution. I'm going to preface this by telling you that this proposal is probably one of the most factually inaccurate repeals ever submitted for serious consideration. Literally every single argument...

    At Vote: Nuclear Security Convention [Complete] [Complete]

    I know I have no vote here, and please forgive me if I'm overstepping my bounds, but I strongly advise that the North Pacific votes against this. This resolution is the WA's tacit approval of an international "join the World Assembly and get nukes!" campaign. The author seems to be under the...

    At Vote:Radiological Terrorism [Complete] [Complete]

    A radiological bomb is a normal explosive meant solely to spread radiological material. The purpose is area denial, but because of the limited use of such tactics in actual warfare, they're best used by terrorists to incite chaos and mayhem. Unfortunately for member nations, area denial tactics...

    At Vote:Radiological Terrorism [Complete] [Complete]

    First of all, radiological weapons have not deterrent value, especially when you have nuclear weapons. This argument that without radiological weapons, you won't be able to respond is simply not grounded in sensible policy. I've already discussed in depth why radiological weapons have no use for...

    Self Determination Accord

    Hey everyone! I hope it's alright that I post here. I know that this is going to be a difficult resolution to pass, so I hope you don't mind me getting your opinion on it! The General Assembly, Recognizing that member nations may possess non-self governing territories and other regions that...

    At Vote:Right to Adequate Sanitation [Complete] [Complete]

    Of course! I'm sure that you're more than qualified, but I do feel as if your summaries don't currently do you justice. I don't think it's my place, but I'll always offer friendly advice if I see something is amiss. The point here is that sanitation is a right, but one that is not commonly...

    At Vote:Right to Adequate Sanitation [Complete] [Complete]

    Please do tell me if I'm overstepping my boundaries here, because my only goal here is to be helpful and informative. So I guess I'll get down to brass tacks. I mean no disrespect to you Abacathea, but frankly, you need to hold yourself to a higher standard regarding writing resolution...
