Nationalist Front Shut Down!

It has been confirmed today that the Nationalist Front has been eradicated as a threat to Freiheit. In an intense battle in the city of Culdre, NF Leader Viktor Burkhard was shot and killed. The battle lasted for about an hour, then the remaining NF soldiers surrendered. The trial process promisises to be long and slow, thanks to new laws enacted by President Sunter promising everyone the right to a trial by jury with thier own lawyers. However, the Preisdent promises that all of the people assocaited with the Nationalist Front shall be brought to justice.

More Privatization On The Way

News laws have been passed, allowing the Department of The Treasury to Privatize the well-off Coal Industry. Also, there is the possibility of outsourcing the Coal Industry to other countries who do not have enough coal. This sparked some protest in the mostly Communist province of Kohle, were most of Freiheit's coal comes from. However most of the nation seems to agree with President Sunter's new laws, seeing as he still has an approval rating of 75%.

Congress in Heated Debate Over Outlaw of Cigarettes!

The Congress has been in a deadlock over whether Cigarettes should be outlawed in the country. Most of the government offiacals are heavy smokers, yet some of teh ones who do smoke heavily are voting for this law to pass.

"It just doesn't make sense that we have illegalized Marijuana, but continue to allow Cigarettes to be legal. If anything Marijuana should be legal, and these disgusting things should be outlawed." Says Congress member John Hawley.

It is likely that the Congress will be in this deadlock for some time, as neither side has given way.

Cigarettes Banned! Marijuana Possibly Legalized!

In a surprising turn of events, two of the Congress members who had been previously voting against the bill to bann cigarettes decided to vote for it. The bill was sent to the President who immedeatly approved of it.

Instead of giving sentences for smoking Cigarettes, first time offenders found smoking are to be sent to a 8 week re-hab course. If caught again it is a 750 Reichsmark ticket. If caught a third time they are sent to 1 year in jail.

Now that cigarettes have been banned another bill has been put up for vote... the legilization of Marijuana. It has been proven to cause less damage than the must have alcohol, and is not nearly as addicting as cigarettes. So far most of Congress seems to be approving of the bill.

50% of Coal Industry Privatized

50% of the Coal Industry has been Privatized, while the remainaing 50% remain under government control.

From the Minister of Foreign Affairs

We'd like to express our slight concern about marijuana possibly being legalized in our neighbouring nation of Freiheit. Though we do not wish to take part in such a law or support it, we the government of The Scotlands wish to make sure that no illegal substances find their way across the border and flooded into our streets. What our neighbours do within their own borders is beyond us.

We would also like to possibly buy some shares in the Freiheit coal industry and in return, of course, we would be able to create new jobs for thousands of Freiheitians. President Delahunt believes this deal can be the first stepping stone of Scots/Frei affairs and to talks of a possible free trade agreement.

Thank you for your attention,

What percent would the Scottish goverment like to purchase? Also the Freiheit government is excited about a possible free-trade agreement with The Scotlands. What would the Scottish government like to trade in our agreement?

Perhaps a summit can be setup to discuss the free trade agreement. As for the percentage of the coal industry, we were thinking something along the lines of 15-20%, at your government's discretion of course.

Fair enough, what is the Scotlands proposed date for such a meeting? And also 15% sounds good.

Marijuana Legalized!

The law has passed, and now Marijuana has been legalized. The government has set up a Marijuana Cigarette Company, called Freiheit Marijuana, and has opened this business to privatization. However it is illegal to sell it on the streets, and it is illegal to sell Marijuana Cigarettes that have any added addicting chemicals, or other chemicals that are not approved of by the government.

Violence In Otchi Slums!

The slums that house the Otchi population, in the province of Verteidigung, have seen a high rise in racial violence. Several gangs that are pro-white have been sending in mobsters to set fire, beat, and kill Otchi people. The Otchi people are outraged, and are beginning to demand the government take action against this organized anti-Otchi crime spree. However, many police have been 'looking away' from this crime wave. Also there has been evidence of bribery being used by the racist gangs.

The President has not made an offical statement about the events however, and neither have any government officals.

Freiheit National Press: Racial Violence Increases!

President Makes Statement on Racial Violence!

President Sunter today made an offical statement about the racial violence against the Otchi people in the Verteidigung province.

"Any people found as members of any criminal gang will be arrested, that includes those criminal gangs who focuse on terrorizing the Otchi people. Why the Verteidigung police have not taken any action is appalling. If there is not significant progress against these gangs, then the Cheif of Police, Jerry Duboise, whose vicinity includes the slums of the Otchi people, will find himself without a job."

Despite the President's disapproaval of the violence, that did not stop the gangs from making more attacks yesterday. Fires burned in the Otchi Slums for hours, wounding over 70 Otchi, and killing 3. After the fire, a gas station in a small town called Cura, which is about 2 miles away from the Otchi Slums. Witnesses claim that it was a group of Otchi, however it is unclear whether the witnesses are speaking the truth or simply attempting to get the Otchi in more trouble. No one was hurt in the gas station explosion thankfully.

Foreign Secretary Off To Stirling!

On Wednesday Christoph Denever met with the Taigh Foreign Minister to discuss a possible free trade agreement. The agreement would be an exchange of Freiheitian Coal for Taigh Oil.

"If Taigh Ur excepts our proposal, both of our nations shall find great profit from this deal. Also we will be able to help Taigh Ur come out of the isolation it has been in for so long." said President Sunter of the deal on Thursday. We have yet to hear if the deal has been approved of by Taig Ur.

Police Surround Otchi Slums!

In order to prevent further attacks on the Otchi people, Cheif of Police Jerry Dubois has ordered that Verteidigung Police block every entrance into the slums, and stop/search every person and vehicle going in or out of the slums. Despite this effort, two IEDs went off in the slums, wounding 17 but killing none.

Jonathon Faust Named Council of Nations Representative!

President Martin Sunter has appointed Jonathon Faust the Freiheitian representative for the Council of Nations, which Freiheit has just recently been admitted to. Jonathon Faust is a feirce nationalist and 'will defend our nations interests as we enter a new age of internationalism.' said President Sunter. Freiheitians everyone have begun rejoicing as thier nation has finally been admitted into such an important orginzation. March 19 has also been declared an official holiday, called International Day.

President Creates New Bill and Congress in Debate over whether or not to Approve of it.

The President has created a new bill, which has really sparked up debate around the country. The bill has been titled the Equality Act, and would give the Otchi people rights which they have never before had.

-The Right To Marry Non-Otchi People
-Right to Move Outside of Verteidigung Province
-Right to be employed by non-Otchi business’s
-Right to vote in elections

Many of the people of Freiheit are strongly against this bill. In fact, attacks on the Otchi slums have increased in both size, and aggression. The president however refuses to budge on the issue, claiming that ‘Our nation stands for Freedom, yet we only offer it to our White Catholic citizens. Which is ridiculous! The Otchi people are citizens of this country to! Hell, there would be another civil war if this violence and prejudice was going on against any of our other citizens.’

A large amount of citizens, most of which are members of the Conservative Party, claim that the President only wants to pass this act so he can marry his Otchi lover. There is no evidence that suggests he is sleeping with an Otchi women however, so these are more than likely just rumors.

Conservative, Worker's, and Democratic Parties band together against Equality Act

Congressmen from the Conservative, Worker's, and Democratic Parties have decided to band together and try to ensure that the Equality Act does not pass. However, if every congressmen of all those parties go through with it, it will only create a stalemate. Since the Liberal Party controls 50% of the seats in Congress. The President made a statement about this 'alliance' today,

'All I have to say about the banding together of these parties is wow. Do they really hate the Otchi that much? Are they really that stupid? Well if they want a battle they will get one, the Equality Act will pass!'

Most people are beginning to see that the Otchi people deserve these rights, and are switching sides in this debate. The Liberal Party members rate has soared.

Radilo supports President Sunter in his attempt to grand equality for all of Freiheit's citizens. Radilo had suffered the oppression of Apartheid in the past, and we hope and pray that such a burden is lifted from the Federal Republic.

Equality Act Passes!

Yesterday the Conservative Party and its ‘allies’ have given in to the Equality Act, and it has passed with 100% of the Congress approving of it. Otchi are pouring out of Verteidigung, and many have begun moving to St. George, or to work in the coal mines in the state of Kohle. Marriages have skyrocketed as White men have begun marrying their Otchi girlfriends, however many small busniness’s are still opposed to the Otchi, and have refused to hire them. Most people are glad that this law has passed. The President gave a speech today, here is an excerpt:

‘This is a glorious day for Freiheit. We have finally given the freedom our nation promised to all of our people, not just the majority. Now the Otchi people can live in a country were they are free, and not enemies of the state as they were before. Now the Racist gangs operating in Verteidigung are warned, if they do not halt such action… military personel will move into the state.’

The Otchi people are now declaring March 25, Freedom Day, and it will be celebrated as the day they were considered people too. The Freiheit Congress is considering adopting this as a Holiday as well.

2010 Economic Outlook

So far our economy is doing great! However this is the time of year that the National Press hosts its economic overlook article.

The Department of the Treasury is hard at work making sure that we Freiheitians stay an economic power to be reckoned with in the world. With a GDP per capita of 50,000 USD and a unemployment rate of only 3%, we are reaching new heights as a economically powerful nation. Here is the government's budget plan for the remainder of 2010:

Military still dominates most of the budget, and Law and Order is still second on the list. Education has become the countries third top priority, instead of Environment. The government has made it clear that it will spend a considerable amount less on maintaining the many parks and national wildlife reserves that Freiheit has. If the parks and reserves are now going to have to be maintained by volunteer groups mostly. Also Health has become a considerably less of a priority, last year it took up 23% oif the budget! This will result in a shrinking of Doctor's wages and the wages of other Hospital staff. It is possible that Hospitals will be privatized sometime in the future.

Hidden Nuclear Weapon Silo's Found!

It has been confirmed that six nuclear weapons have been found in hidden silo's by the Freiheit military. These nuclear warheads were found scattered within the Grau mountains to the north. The F.I.F. reports that they have found documents stating that the Communist Dictator Olaf Detlev ordered the creation of these nuclear weapons in secret.

Now President Sunter is tasked with the decision on whether to get rid of these nuclear weapons, which may hurt foriegn relations, or to dispose or get rid of them, which takes a great oppurtunity away from the Freiheitian Armed Forces.

The weapons were found on a training mission by the 71st Rangers. They saw the silo's from thier choppers. they then landed to investigate. This find has split the nation into two. One half calls for President Sunter to keep the warheads, while the other calls on him to get rid of them.

President Sunter has stated that he wishes to hear what the international community wishes him to do, before he takes any action.

We acknowledge Hajr's request, however keeping these WMD's would contribute to the defence of our nation. If our President does decide to keep them, we will not use them unless a nuclear strike is called on us first.
