MikitivityApr 12 2006, 04:25 PMWe should post the text of the original resolutions in our debates as well ... as without reviewing the original, my government is at an impasse.[/quote]
Here is the original:
Banning the use of Landmines
A resolution to slash worldwide military spending.
Category: Global Disarmament
Strength: Strong
Proposed by: Abrizza
Description: All nations are advised that landmines are cruel and unnecessary devices to civilian populations of nations around the world.
These weapons indiscriminately maim and kill civilian targets.
When conflicts end, landmines pose a serious threat to farming and render large portions of land unuseable. The expense and difficulty of removing landmines after hostilities cease means that farmland and other areas might never be useful to populations for any enterprise.
For this reason the immediate banning of the use of landmines in conflicts carried out by UN counties is called for.
Votes For: 14603
Votes Against: 4967
Implemented: Sat Dec 6 2003

Neither Yelda, nor any of her puppets, contain political units known as "counties", so we are unaffected by this resolution. We are in favor of the repeal only because it will clear the way for more effective legislation. (in other words, a resolution that actually bans landmines.)
