ANNOUNCEMENT FROM THE UNITED ARMED REVOLUTIONARY GOVERNMENT


Since the crisis of the Troubles is passing, and there has been peacekeeping forces from our broters and sisters in Christ, it has been decided that a general election for the Throne of David will be held.
To this end, we will be fielding a canidate of our own on the United Armed Revolutionary Government ticket. We also have decided to allow the Commitie for Liberal Democracy Party's canidate to run for the position of Emperor as well.
In addition, the DoubleWidevilian Fundementalist Baptis Church is fielding a canidate on the Purity and Holiness Family Values Party ticket. We ask that during this time that the peacekeeping forces make sure that partisans of the Purity and Holiness Family Values Party do not attempt to bully or force minority parties by intimidation or extortion.

As for the United Armed Revolutionary Party, we will be running on the following platform:

1) A confederate political system that emphasizes local control of moneys and political autority
2) That the government allow local militias to continue to support local towns and villages, and be allowed to keep and bear arms
3) The primacy of Revolutionary Courts over the Sanhedrin, so as to deal swiftly and decisively with criminal activity and possible insurgency
4) Laize-faire economic policy, with lessening of regulations and free trade with no tarrifs
5) Increased funding and the establishing of a national tithe to feed the poor, i.e , 10% of all crops and necessities to be given to local Churches to be distributed to those below the poverty line.
6) Universal draft of all people from the age of 18-45 to do reconstruction work and to do improvements to the nation, and aid the poor. This will be ran under a proposed National Salvation Ministry. This will apply to all those unemployed,
