Fellow Martians,

In the latest WA vote on the "Don't Kill The Poor Act," Zkaza has cast a vote of no. I would like to clarify that decision.

The resolution was poorly written, ill-researched, and ambiguously worded. The title of the resolution was sensationalist and didn't properly describe the actual resolution. The verbiage of the Act grossly misused the term "genocide," and was in several places syntactically ambiguous, especially in point 3.

Unfortunately, the motion will likely pass. I simply wanted to make it clear that, while Zkaza agrees with the underlying sentiment of the resolution, we cannot support an act whose verbiage could be misunderstood and misused on member nations.

With the highest regards,

The Martian Territories of Zkaza, Mars Delegate to the World Assembly
