Political debate: Who will govern Amshinov?

With the elections coming closer the national televionstation Reshet Emunah has organised a debate between Elazar Ben Tzion of Am Segula and Amar Talmahof Or Veshelom, the 2 candidates for chancellor. The debate will hopefully give doubters the extra push to know for who to vote. The debate will be hosted by Zeva Breuer, a political journalist. They have made 3 questions where each politician can answer how they will, they all get one response and can't intervene between each other.

ZB: The region has been governed for quite a while by Or Veshelom, but for the next election a new party has risen to challenge the status quo, Am segula, a self proclaimed conservative party defending the yeudi rights for Amshinov and Terra. As we have seen in the campaign Or Veshelom campaigning for international peace and trade, to put Amshinov open to talk to Terra, we see Am Segula campaigning for security and economics. This debate is organised to give people a decent base to know on who to vote. I have 3 questions for each of the chairmans, they will respond without intervenience of each other. So Lets start.

Mr. Ben Tzion, Mr. Talmah — what does it mean to be a Yeudi citizen of Amshinov today, and should citizenship be tied to cultural or religious identity? Can a non-Yeudi ever be truly part of the Neset?"

AT: It is important to agknolewdge our culture and heritage, but this doesn't mean we need to make Amshinovs citizenship exclusive. Everyone who respects our culture and laws should be welcomed as it is an extra worker or knowledge or experience where Amshinov can benefit of. The old guard has destroyed our nation, repuation and Amshinov with it. It is tome for a new approach, one of peace, solidarity and diplomacy.

EZ: Looks with frowns towards Talmah... Our heritage and religion should be respected and worshipped. To be an Amshinov citizen should be already an honour, to be able to live and work in a region of the Holy land. Maybe migration could be a benefit, but citizenship is an honour dedicated to our people, to make it an exclusivity is to make it worthy of honouring it. We aren't against migration persee, but it should be legal and it should be a benefit to Amshinov, letting everyone in counteracts that. International affairs should be about trade, let us not fall in the traps of Terra, where we decide and attack the souvereignity of a nation....

ZB: Next question: With trust in yeudi trading declining and yeudi banks weakened, how are both of youre parties handle the crisis?

EZ: We should make at least Amshinovs banks be trustworthy again, make an department that oversees the local banks, ensure buffers and see that everything goes legally. If that goes as planned, we should help all Yeudi's all over Terra by investing in their idea's to create their bussiness and slowly we will repair the trust in yeudi's.

AT: With international diplomacy and trade, it gives the oppurtunity to cooperate with other nations, find allies to our cause, wich opens other doors for Amshinov and Yeudi's. Regaining trust is slow process that is done by proving we are trustworthy.

ZB: With reports of crimerate going higher, how are each of you going to bring it back down?

AT: Misunderstanding and ignorance are big causes of those numbers, Today a lot of people have no choice, they are free as some would say, but are they if they dont get the same choice as others? So by investing in education, making it so that everyone can get an education, that gives a choice and give everyone an equal oppurtunity to start their lives, it will automatically decrease crimerates. To be transparant gives information to the public with gives misinformation and misunderstanding no playroom, wich will decrease peoples frustration. We also know that their will always be a small percentage of crimes that has nothing to do with what i suggest, so investment in the police is also needed to make people feel safe again.

EZ: To stop illegal immigration is a stop to crimes. As they use routes where previous governments never worried about, because they didn't bother or didn't know it, wich implements that criminals also use them to smuggle drugs, weapons and humans. To end those routes, you hit 2 flies with one stone. So we would create an local guard, that will patrol those area's and could help the police with bigger actions. Investment in the police is also a must, it is a neglected department of our region. We would make it beneficial to join the police or the local arm... national guard. We would invest in facilities for the police and the national guard, invest in their training, wich would give room to specialised training. This will create a real safety.

ZB: Interesting dialogue's, with 2 very differant candidates, was it enough for the people to decide on who to vote for?
