"You might want to be a bit more specific. Will retaliation be allowed--if they nuke me, we'll nuke them? Would dismantling of current arms be required? Who would provide the military intervention? We Sky Lords don't exactly have a strong standing army; unless you wanted us to drop rocks, there's not much we can do. And, for that matter, we can't do much of that unless we're dropping rocks on ourself."

The New Order disagrees with the banning of nuclear weapons, which are a major part of our defense.

"Woah woah woah. You're basing almost your entire defense on nukes? Bad move. What'll you do if you're invaded?"

We have contigencies. However, the best defense is prevention. If countries can launch nukes, war is too costly to wage. This keeps peace in a fundamental, uncorruptible way.

"All signatory states would be pressed to intervene, either by embargo or military assistance. Military intervention assumes retaliatory conventional attacks by the victim. Dismantlement of biological and chemical weapons would be deemed priortiy, though due to the prevalence of nuclear warheads among our members dismantlement is something that can be discussed at another date.

And while the Dominion has reservations against the banning of nuclear weapons, we feel that the benefits gained outweigh the losses."

Hmm. The New Order may be willing to forgo nuclear use, providing said armaments remain in our possession for their possible uses in the Great Plan.

"We have a nonaggression pact already. Anyone invading is already ignoring the rules. You know what I mean?"

"Woah woah woah. You're basing almost your entire defense on nukes? Bad move. What'll you do if you're invaded?"
"They said 'major part,' not 'entire'"
"And I said 'almost,' selectively stone sonics."

Hmm. The New Order may be willing to forgo nuclear use, providing said armaments remain in our possession for their possible uses in the Great Plan.
"Again, 'woah woah woah.' What is this 'Great Plan' and why does it need nukes?"

The Great Plan is the operation we at the New Order work towards. Nuclear devices may have myriad uses in it. I'm afraid for its successful execution, we must keep the details secret. As many resources must remain available for potential uses in the Great Plan, however.

"I can't believe this, er, WE can't believe this, right? ... We took your sh--your excrement earlier, because we didn't think there was anything to worry about, but we're NOT going to let one of us scheme about some Great Plan of Ominousness which might require nuking stuff! The Sky Lords say we refuse to let the New Order push around our legislation because it might interfere with their Plan, and are currently preparing a resolution to present a resolution to this council to make the New Order at least tell us something about their Great Plan!"

"... Due to the vague nature of your statement, we are currently mulling over a decision to enact sanctions and punishment on the order unless it complies in either revealing the "Great plan" or disarming it's nuclear arsenel. If it does not comply, we will be forced to to resort to total war in order to ensure it will."

The Great Plan is a final action to keep humanity safe from the many threats present here. More I am not at liberty to say, though it does not involve use of nuclear weapons on our fellow nations. However, nuclear warheads have myriad uses and to discard them could likely hinder the Great Plan, which is unacceptable. The longer the Great Plan takes to be prepared, the greater the chance is of it being compromised.

"What possible use could a nuclear warhead have outside of war, and what 'threats' are you imagining this Plan would counter? Say, that's a good idea...thanks, Bill."

As an example, nuclear warheads contain an easily accessible source of quality nuclear power. The warheads also provide insight into new venues of research by our scientists. Threats are everywhere. Treacherous humans, imposters, temperature, pollution, predators, there are endless threats to humanity around us. The Great Plan will end this.
