Objectives FAQ
1: What is the final goal of the Terran Alliance?
Peace. Security. The right of all human beings to feel safe that they will be alive tomorrow, the day after and the day after that, and that death will come from old age, not a bullet, not hunger, and not disease.
2: How is this to be reached?
Sadly, it is impossible to achieve all this in a single blow. We have to focus on single things one at a time, choosing these individual objectives carefully for their importance, plausibility, and the degree to which they can aid future objectives to be achieved.
3: What is the first objective?
Making armed conflict between nations a thing of the past.
4: How is this to be achieved?
By convincing governments to sign an agreement on total non-aggression between those who sign, and on the creation of a common military, funded by all, with the twin purposes of protecting any signed nation from outside attacks, and to keep signed nations from breaking the agreement.
5: How will they be made to sign this agreement?
Statements will be aquired from several parts of society to ensure the political leaders, that they can make the choice without risking their necks. Also, people with military knowledge and experience will be drawn upon to detail the agreement, making it more valid in the eyes of those same political leaders.
6: What will those "statements" consist of?
In basic terms, the signed statement, that the person in question supports the concept (or actual content, if available) of the agreement.
7: How are these statements to be acquired?
By starting with low level people in government and military and using their statements to approach higher levels, until the desired people can be approached. This will be done by simple methods; letters, personal contact and the like.
8: Where do the resources for this venture come from?
There is no actual budget; what is required is mostly legwork and creative tactics. The resources are therefore mostly people willing to do their share for a better world.
9: When will all this be accomplished?
Impossible to say. Perhaps in 2 years, perhaps in 10. Perhaps not until even later. But the harder we fight, the sooner it can be done.
10: And what then? What is the next objective?
The objectives after that are still only vague topics; too little is known of the situation then. Suggestions involve a common disaster fighting department, a common disease control, common work against civil war and much more. Only time will tell.
