Content
Senator David Harrison argues that extensive violations of the interplanetary genetic engineering moratorium in New Troy represent a direct threat to the integrity, sovereignty, and security of the Jovian Union. He frames the issue not as mere disagreement over local autonomy, but as a betrayal of shared laws and ethical scientific practice.
While insisting that he is not advocating war for its own sake, Harrison argues that military intervention must be considered as a necessary means of bringing New Troy back into compliance. He presents inaction as a form of acquiescence that would weaken the Union’s authority and undermine the principles of justice, equality, and cooperation on which it was founded.
