OPEC Times
Debate Highlights
These Debates are between the current Doge Wally Hickel and King Saud of Saudi Arabia
Doge Hickel
King Saud
The world is filling up with new nations and influences what do you plan on to allow OPEC to continue to expand?
Hickel
We will continue to offer nations the ability to join OPEC and we will also continue to bring order to the few territories near us that are still with out a government. For the Northern territories we have been unable to make communications with the Quebecois Government to see what they would be willing to sell the territory off for but we will continue to talk with them.
Saud
I agree with Hickel on this issue we must continue to allow nations to join our organization and we must bring order to the territories with out. However I feel that I speak for most of OPEC when i say that Hickel has not been productive in supporting the middle east, he let Syria be taken by the Targaryens and the only part of the middle east he actually brought order too was the Sinai peninsula for control of the Canal.
With the Holocaust in Germany and the current lack of government in the land of Palestine many people are calling for a Jewish state in the middle east, what are your opinions on this "zionism"
Saud
I am apposed to any Muslims losing power in the middle east and a Jewish state should not be founded in the Arabic territory of Palestine.
Hickel
I believe that the lands of Palestine, being a holy land for three religions and countless sub-divisions of those religions the land must be shared between them all, it should be set up as a neutral zone where anyone can peacefully go on a religious pilgrimage. Who should administer this territory on the other hand should be based on what the people of the territory pick, and I believe their should be a land for the Jews to call home, and as such if I am elected again I promise to restore order to Palestine and i give a personal invite to every Jewish person in the world to come to the new land and help create a new era of peace and prosperity for your people.
The Italian peninsula has been in civil war for many years now and now their has been the use of a nuclear weapon, what do you plan on doing when it comes to this war?
Hickel
Being a Catholic myself I cant help but put my support in with the Holy See, the people of Italy have been under an oppressive Fascist rule for far too long, and I hope that the people of Italy will be able to recover from this war in time, however the attack on Rome was uncalled for and thus if I am elected I will put full support behind the Vatican, our prayers go out to the People of Rome and the Pope, may he be found soon.
Saud
The Nuking of Rome was an outrage! The countless amount of culture, art, and history that was there shows that no holy city is safe, be it Jerusalem, Medina, or even Mecca it self. None of these are places are sacred or Holy to Mussolini and his Fascist regime. May Allah save the people of the Papal States, as an anonymous Nordic man said "Tonight we are all Catholic".
This one is specifically to Hickel, in your reign their was an accident regarding the bureaucracy where nothing happened for an entire year, how can we, the people of OPEC, be sure that something like that wont happen again?
Hickel
I took care of the bureaucracy problem. We were able to streamline the bureaucracy so that everything is easier and simpler. Noting is stuck in it for more than an hour, and the people themselves have seen enormous improvements in the ability to file taxes and other government related issues that the people have to deal with.
This one is to Saud, your time as king of Arabia have proven you to be an incompetent head of state. You live an elegant lifestyle and if it wasn't for OPEC you would have put your entire nation into bankruptcy. Along with this there is the problem of your brother Faisal and his claim to the throne, how can the people of OPEC trust you to be competent in ruling their Organization?
Saud
Well, um..., hmm. Well you see, *cough cough* If I am elected to be Doge I will promise to um, give my palaces in Saudi Arabia to the poor and the unfortunate to teach them and um, hopefully give them a better life. As for my elegant life style I promise that all OPEC funds will be used to help OPEC and not myself. For my brother I will, um abdicate the throne of Arabia and allow him to be king until I return.
Well these are just the highlights of the various Debates, we wish every person of OPEC a happy election and vote for who you think will be better to lead the nation, see you in a few days with the results. This has been the OPEC times, and we are signing out for now, i'm going to vote. Long live OPEC.
