And how will keep order? Protect the people? Stop agents of terror from taking the city? Your "God" who has not acted directly against mankind since your biblical flood?

If God rules the City then it is by his devine inspiration that The Dawn has called this to our attension. Sould we not claim the city now in the intrests of peace, then who might later claim it to make war?

I concur with Nag Ehgoeg's wise statement. We must protect Jerusalem, lest someone seize it by force and claim it as their own.

"And yet Egyria isn't in the UN. Curious." - ERA

While the protection of the city may fall under UN purview no UN nation has comeforward to contribute. The UN will ensure that Wadj-Dawn act imparitally and step in if we find a human rights breach. Otherwise we're happy for them to do the grunt work.

OOC: Oh hell, that must have gotten messed up because Egyria had to be resurrected... I reapplied. Egyria's always been in the UN

"The international community is clearly divided on the matter of the Holy City. Considering this, and respecting the role of the international community in the civilized decision-making process, the Resplendent Dawn has decided to withhold from making any move at the current time. Note that the Dawn-Wadji venture has not been cancelled. We feel that, with tensions escalating in parts of the world, and with the current brutal war in Scythirus, that we should not contribute to further regional tension, which would probably result even after consensus was reached. We would like to remove this matter from the discussion table for the current time, with the understanding that it will be reconsidered in the future. Thank you."

Foreign Minister to the Emperor of the Resplendent Dawn
