Fellow micronationalists,

This afternooon, Gaudian standard time, military strikes were 
declared by the United States and the United Kingdom on the Republic 
of Iraq.  As Secretary-General of the League of Secessionist States, 
I deplore the action taken today, and serve it as an example for 
micronations and macronations around the globe.

The League of Secessionst States, and its member and observer states, 
are nations that observe peaceable conduct and solutions to problems. 
 As a collective of nations, we believe that armed conflict is not 
the answer to solve problems, but rather, a more effective solution 
is bi-lateral discussion, and neutral arbitration, as put forth in 
the Charter of the League of Secessionist States, Articles IV and V.

We, as a collective body of micronations, and as members of the 
micronational community and of the League of Secessionist States, do 
hereby deplore the conduct taken by the United States and the United 
Kingdom against their fellow nation and fellow humans, and urge the 
micronational community as a whole to set an example for the 
macronational world of peace, agreement, and friendly discussion for 
preventing agressive action on other governments and peoples.

Presented to the General Assembly and Signed on this date of 16th 
December, 1998,

David Kendall, BA, ATMS, CL
Secretary-General of the League of Secessionist States
