Armed Republic of Zeketown announces Mandatory Military Service Policy

Dictator Zeke III has announced a new Mandatory Military Service Policy. Under this new rule, all citizens of the Armed Republic of Zeketown must serve four years in the Zekian Army. Zekian citizens must enlist by age 28. This new ruling comes after a Nation wide Military recruitment drive was not as successful as Military Officials had planned. This new rule covered under Zekian General Laws Ch 10 section 1 states, "any citizen whom deliberately ignores the Mandatory Military Service Policy shall be incarcerated for a term of not less that ten years.” Zekian Army General Michaels said at a press conference, "When a new nation is formed such as the Armed Republic of Zeketown we are vulnerable to attacks from larger more established Nations. We need to increase the size and strength or our Army so that we can be prepared for anything." A reporter from the Zekian Herald asked General Michaels if Zeketown was preparing for war. General Michaels replied, "Absolutely not our goal is to increase our military strength and train our citizens to protect our land." An unidentified source inside the Zekian government reported that the Zekian Minister of Urban Affairs, Gabriel Hastings would not support his new Mandatory Military Service Policy. Tragically Mr. Hastings was found dead inside his hillside home this morning from an apparent suicide.

So those who support this are taken out of useful life for 4 years, and those who don't are out for 10 years, it will be nice seeing your society collapsing.

The Armed Forces need "Intellectuals" as well. We need Military Doctors, lawyers, Intelligence officials ect. We need people to serve our nation. It is up to them when they enlist. They can enlist at age 18, be done by 22 and have their whole lives ahead of them. Some may chose to enlist later by age 28 after college. They are not required to serve for life! Under this policy if there is a war and we are forced to impose a draft, we will have a pool of citizens that already have military training and experience. Society will not crumble.

The Republic of Pintopia applauds this move by our neighbors to the East.
Especially after whats going on over there in Feline Catfish. We must be prepared.

Pintopia,
The Almighty Dictator Zeke III thanks you for your continued support. We urge your nation to consider enacting the same policy.

The Government of Moepoeia does not believe in Compulsory Military service and are strongly against Zeketown’s decision to make it compulsory. We find it to be against civil rights and takes four years at least of ones freedom away. We believe that to have a strong military you need people that want to be there and not because they were forced to join.

Minister of Diplomatic Relations,
Allegra Luanna

The following is a transcript from a Zekian News Network interview with the Almighty Dictator Zeke III:

ZNN: Sir, the Moepoeian Republic's Minister of Diplomatic Relations, Allegra Luanna made a public statement against your new Mandatory Military Service Policy. Would you like to comment on this issue?

Zeke III: Yes, yes I would. Allegra Luanna is entitled to his opinion. That is all his statement was, his opinion. You know what they say about opinions right?

ZNN: I am not sure Sir.

Zeke III: An opinion is like an a________, every one has one, but not everyone wants to hear them.

ZNN: Umm, ok Sir thank you.

The Republic Of Pintopia has always been had a compulsary military service policy since our inception...Long ago.(OOC:Like a week or so)

And now I'll sit back and watch as your society crumbles due to a lack of intellectuals, doctors, etc. - Robert Pacitania, General Secretary Of The Central Soviet And The Communist Party Of The Soviet Union

We definitely agree with this statement. Crash and burn, Zeketown. Crash and burn. And take that idiot mushroom-headed piece of trash of an "Almighty Dictator" with you, so we can put the world average IQ back up to the 20 points higher it used to be.

The day iI which the nation of Zeketown collapses and is conquered by its own people; the day in which the men and women use the forced military skills against the tyrannical dictator of Zeketown against them. That day, I will be able to lean back in my chair with my wife and children, and watch as the Revolution excells past the utter studpidity of tyrannical, imperical, capitalist society. - Robert Pacitania, General Secretary Of The Central Soviet And The Communist Party Of The Soviet Union

I find it funny that you have the sheer nerve to disrespect MISS Allegra Luanna - hopefully from now on you won't forget SHE is a woman - SHE being the best Minister of Diplomatic Relations in the long, accomplished history of this country. Now that we've started relations out on the right foot, have a cookie, but try to eat around the nails, thumbtacks and rusty staples. Good luck with your horribly poor-planned policy, you inconscionably fascist doormats.

Signed,

Prime Minister Melissa DeBruyn

Senator John McBain, R-Clarksville had this to say about the recent Zekian policy change.

"Good for Zeketown, I just don't see why a big deal is being made of this. Pintopia has the same policy, we are a demovracy and our people vote for compulsary service time and again. It's a good experience for young men, it builds character, and breeds self confidence."

Ah, yes the Moepoeian Rebublic's Minister of Diplomatic Relations and Prime Minister are both female. I understand now. This is probably one of those feminists, man hating nations. They are probably just pissed that Zeketown's new policy reads, "All citizens must serve" this of course includes the women.

Now to address Robert Pacitania, General Secretary Of The Central Soviet and Vasiliou Bandanaris, Agustinate of International Relations. There will come a time when you will need the support of a soon to be military superpower such as Zeketown, when that day arrives you will be sorry that you did not support my policy. Wait a minute....why do I care? It is my policy and my nation. So I really don't care what you think, support me or don't support me I won't lose any sleep.

Ah, if you only knew how much deeper into a hole your arrogant, sexist, fascist bastardist comments are getting you. Seeing as you look down upon nations a hundred times your size, and that I could brush your entire puny pile of horsecrap of a nation aside with my own hands, no military required, I suggest you shut your trap before you regret it.

What's wrong with being a arrogant, sexist, facist bastard. I pride myself on these things among others. We are a small nation and still very new to your world but this doesn't matter because the Great Grape is on our side.

The Almighty Dictator Zeke III has just passed a new law banning threatening comments against the Zekian people and specifically members of the Zekian government.

Under this new law,
Zekian General Law Ch 266 sec 1a) Whoever willfully and maliciously engages in a pattern of threaten acts, either verbal or physical, over a period of time directed at a specific person, and/or group of people shall be guilty of the crime of criminal threats and shall be punished by imprisonment in a Zekian Federal Labor Camp for a period of 10 years.

b) Whoever commits a second or subsequent such crime, or whoever commits the crime of criminal threats against a member of the Zekian Government, shall be punished by either (1) imprisonment in a Zekian Federal Labor Camp for a period of 25 years, or (2) sentenced to death by firing squad, or (3) both a and b. Sentence may be determined by a criminal trial judge.

c) Statute of limitations for Z.G.L. Ch 266 sec 1 is not more than the natural life of the criminal violator.
