Ridiculous!

What the hell? This is the most ridiculous proposal ever! Has anyone even read the content of the resolution? Allowing the defendant to confront the witnesses against the defendant? Trial to be held in the place that the crime is committed? Allowing the media and public to view the entire proceedings? This is turning the UN into a total farce and it has the majority vote!

I personally would rather run my country by the roll of a die than submit to this proposal, but I value the UN member label that appears beneath my country's name and makes me look special. So if it's a crazy world we'll live in, I guess there's very little I can do... until I have Orbital Weapons technology and Plasma Dispersion Bombs. Then you're all fucking dead.

If this is true, then please speak to your UN Delegate and encourage him / her to endorse the Rights and Duties proposal. Should this resolution pass, then clearly we can begin to put the weight of a "majority vote" behind our voices and put a stop of the practice of using the United Nations to FORCE centrist policies on our nations.
