The recent resolution "Space Defence Initiative", calling for increased security, recognized the "calamitous consequences of an asteroid striking the Earth".
Don't you think the levels of security are adequate, considering that many past resolutions considered the topic of defence? Even in the resolution of the UN Education Committee April 9 2004, proposals were even made to improve "school systems (that) lack sufficient security systems" instead of actually aiming directly at education, which was the main aim of that resolution.
It seems that the proposals put forth have been mirroring the actions taking place in the real world for increased security. However, we, the nations of NationStates,have not been experiencing the "calamities"of the real world, such as the war on terror, attacks etc. Therefore , why is it that we have had so many calls for international security in NationStates?
Also, the chances of a asteroid coming that close to Earth again are extremly slim.
I am open to comments.
