Ive set this up so we can ALL discuss this. I want this to be treated with respect. The last thread I opened, only 6 people disussed this. I found that very offensive as threads around me were hitting 70/80/90 replies. I want peoples opinions please.

Anyway this is a replacement proposal to Resolution #65 - Refugee Protection Act. You can find it on:

http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/page=UN_past_resolutions/start=61

- NOTING the unfortunate frequency of armed conflict in our world,

- NOTING ALSO that the cost of such conflicts is not limited to lives lost but includes also the destruction of homes and property resulting in frequent displacements of native populations,

- RECOGNISING AND CONDEMNING the increasing number of non-combatant refugees living their lives in deplorable camps,

- ALTHOUGH RECOGISING these factors, may it be noted that a nation may decline non-combatant refugees entry without reason, which also applies to requests of citizenship,

- KEEPING IN MIND the refugees rights as a sentient, once the said nation declines a request of entry and citizenship, they must start a process of finding a nation willing to take non-combatant refugees and arrange the deportation of the said refugee as soon as possible,

- IN THE UNLIKEY SCENARIO of a nation unwilling to grant the non-combatant refugee entry, the nation who holds the refugee MUST hold said sentient until a willing nation is found,

- In accordance with UN law, the nation holding a deportee MUST treat said sentient with care and respect, regardless of race, ethnicity, nation of origin or religion until a willing nation is found.

President O'Bannon, you don't get respect by demanding it. You get it by writing something people want to read. One thing that people don't like to read is proposals to replace a resolution without a corresponding repeal being put in place.



Also, you don't get to have OFFICIAL DISCUSSIONS until you have a resolution on the floor of the General Assembly.
