Alright, um, sorry. Very sorry.

BigFatDwarf, keep Russia, Squeegy isn't going to be posting I think.

Let start, if you can.

No need to be sorry. You can go ahead and start.

Is this still open?

Wow, I've never done anything like this before.  Maybe I should give it a try, for variety's sake, but I'd be completely unfamiliar with it.
What level does my representative have to be before he can cast Lightning Bolt?  ;D

I suppose I could be a Security Council lurking nation, for a while, before I get active.

I'm not sure which nation to pick...I'm not particularly familiar with most of the available ones, unfortunately.
Mexico or Turkey, maybe?

You know what? I'm going to unilaterally start this off with an actual crisis simulation, ripped from the headlines. North Korea has conducted a nuclear test and is firing some test missles, and the Security Council has convened right now to discuss what to do about this.

I can play as North Korea if you want to conduct any diplomacy with me.

Added. I'll PM all those who wanted to play to alert them of the crisis simulation.

The country of Croatia recognizes this grave threat to world security by the blatant saber rattling of the North Korean regime. We will not stand by and let the world suffer a nuclear exchange, nor further decades of nuclear brinkmanship to rival the cold war.

I demand that North Korea justify their actions to the security council.

France seconds this idea. North Korea must justify themselves.
I'd also like to find a specific sheet on exactly what they're testing (the PM mentioned cruise missiles, which is a very big deal to me).

(OOC: Strife26: Well, erm, maybe it wasn't cruise missles. Sorry for that. This article mentioned that North Korea is testing "short-range missiles", so that's why I mentioned that, my bad.)

(I just saw a report on the Korean thing - they were technically anti-ship missiles.  Namely, that means a very short operational range.)

Burkina Faso will abstain for the moment, until the situation and views of the Council clarify.

This is like, totally uncool on the part of North Korea, man. Their nuclear test is obviously intended as a means of flexing their proverbial muscles in view of the rest of the world. Their growing audacity regarding nuclear proliferation and their trail of human rights violations miles long should make it clear to the council that we must resolve this issue once and for all.

I demand that we send an envoy to North Korea to DEMAND they stop firing these missiles. They are quite able to hit us!

Uganda immediately issues a statement that strongly urges North Korea to cease these test firings immediately to preserve peace and stability in the region and immediately enter into talks with the UN Security Councils, and to suspend all further launches pending the meeting.

However, I must point out that the North Korean government is NOT firing any sort of nuclear warhead as far as we can determine, merely attempting to grow their rocket program. Let us be reasonable.

The Ugandan representative makes a good point-we should be reasonable.

But, in return, we expect the same from North Korea-who has a history of breaking treaties they sign in good faith. They have shamed themselves in front of the international community time and time again. Their actions are indefensible.

No! The time for reason is over! They've been testing nuclear weapons, kidnapping South Koreans, and just generally being idiots for far too long. We need to give them a strong, blunt message that if they are willing to work towards a shared friendship, we will be more than willing to do the same. On the reverse, we also need to deliver an ultimatum; no more nuclear tests. We need to demand it! As a group! Unless they see that the entire international community is tired of their paranoia and insanity, they won't stop.
