TO BE OR NOT TO BE
Delegate of DPRK's GSL for Qatar but almost not decipherable

Qatar World Cup is a ‘flagrant mistake’ and the controversies revolving around Qatar will only go against it and can affect security of homosexuals, workers and bisexuals alike.
Qatar, supposedly the host of the 2022 FIFA World Cup, is going to be the first Middle Eastern country to be hosting this prestigious game but there are innumerable controversies revolving around this small yet action packed country.
The bidding process of the FIFA committee was highly criticized and this contemporarily affects the council as the fans are questioning the legitimacy of the process. Many allegations of bribery and corruption have been circulating. Julio Grondona, Senior Vice President of FIFA till 2014, Ricardo Teixeira and Leoz were bribed and were caught.
Also, there have been multiple human rights violation orders. The migrant workers working in Qatar for the World Cup have not been treated well and they have not been given wages on time. This really affects their security. Qatar has published an official statement that it has abolished the Kafala System but systematic abuse of the migrant workers continues till date.
The World Cup has also led to transparency of the Qatari law and enforcement system. The Sharia Muslim law clearly goes against homosexuality and since Qatar goes by the Sharia law system, they too are against homosexuality. This is another point to be noted.
If we consider the overall stance of Qatar, the Gulf crisis adds on to Qatar’s problems. As Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Egypt and all the other Gulf countries have broken their ties with Qatar, the land, sea and air routes to Qatar belonging to Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Egypt. This will determine whether Qatar can host the 2022 World Cup.
To come to a consensus, Qatar is still not quite ready to host such a huge football league.

(editorial 2)                        Pros about keeping a gun August 30, 2018                     - by Shreya LN and Yamini R V Mohite First of all, in Qatar, possession of a firearm without a licence is punishable by a jail sentence of up to fourteen years. In committee, the pros and cons of civilians owning guns was being spoken about and the delegate of Afghanistan had quite a lot to say. In Afghanistan, firearms are provided to the civilians, or bought by the civilians with a license. The delegate of Afghanistan strongly stated that ‘most’ of the citizens use these guns for self-defence. It is very much possible that the civilians themselves may become non state actors by the influence of these firearms. But, this would not really happen if the background of the person the firearm or the licence for the firearm is being sold to is first checked and only then the licen...

The two Superpowers, China and the United States of America made two separate blocs. These blocs made two working papers as a draft to make a resolution. These two blocs were the only two blocs in the DISEC general assembly. The working paper of the bloc headed by the delegate of the United States of America was sponsored by the delegate of South Korea, the delegate of Germany, the delegate of the United Kingdom and the delegate of France. The working paper of the delegate of China was sponsored by the delegate of Russia, delegate of Iraq, delegate of Iran, delegate of Nepal and delegate of DPRK. The working paper of the delegate of China stated the need for an international organization like the ITU to help curb Cyber-warfare. The delegate of USA stated that that the UN Security Council can make a sub-body who's members would be elected by the general assembly and would create an international cyber-code. This will enable cyber-criminals to be caught. The bloc led by the delegate...

United States; Divided Thoughts

It is a widely acknowledged fact that the United States conducts itself in a hypocritical manner, and contradicts itself repeatedly in international forums. The Disarmament and International Security Council proved to be no different, and the press conference revealed the double standards the government has for its citizens. The United States has conducted itself in an entirely unfit manner, but somehow, it remains unsurprising. When asked informally, the delegate of the US said that she would refuse to answer any questions in the press conference, so it came as a surprise when she spoke on gun control regulations within the US. The delegate stated that the American government believes that the ownership of guns gives its citizens much needed peace of mind, and protection. When a member of the press quoted the horrifying statistics of gun violence in only 2018 within the US- Total number of incidents being 38,451; number of deaths being 9,650; number of children below the age of ...
