Senate Debates Kardan Intervention

By Anthony Wisterly


As the situation in Kardan become more and more dire, the Senate debates whether or not to intervene.The Supreme Ruler declared a national emergency two weeks ago and began a genocidal rampage targeted towards Bigtopians. Several hundred refugees have sought asylum within Hindopia's borders and have called on the Government to send military aid to the country to help the citizens against the tyrannical government.

The Senate released a statement today saying that they were discussing whether or not they had an obligation to send aid to the war-torn country. The Chancellor, Marcus Pryde, has enlisted the counsel of several ethics professors and international lawyers to help him decide his position on the matter.

The Senate is divided on the matter, with the Senator for Defence arguing in favour of the intervention but the Senator for Diplomatic Affairs being firmly against it. Senator Nathan Grethmandis, S. Defence, argues that the Kardinian people are completely helpless against the military of the Supreme Ruler and that it was Hindopia's moral obligation to intervene against the psychotic government. Senator Lauren Yeedills, S. Diplomatic Affairs, says that militaristic action against a foreign government when they have not threatened or harmed Hindopia in any way set bad precedent, and would cause needless casualties to Hindopian citizens.

Hindopian Report investigators procured the transcripts of the latest Senate Meeting and they revealed that the debate had struck a rift between the S. for Defence and S. for Diplomatic Affairs. It is rumored that the Chancellor may soon, if the rift isn't repaired, mandate that the two Senators go before the Council of Reconciliation for mediation. If the Senate cannot decide on the matter, then the Chancellor may send the decision to the High Council, where the Councillors will decide the matter.
