+Discourse on nuclear power divides the world into those who deserve it and those who don't, which constitutes nuclear orientalism.

+Rampant orientalism around the world depicts a false image of western rationality against eastern barbarity. The only country to use its nuclear power was the United States, on a judgment day many will never forget.

+I advocate for a complete ban of nuclear power in western European countries and the U.S. Anything less than a prohibition threatens to continue a presence of nuclear threat from the U.S, either discursively limiting the East or physically. Nuclear power has become the corner stone of new imperialism.

+The role of the judge is to be an educator concerned with including multiple perspectives in the debate round. The judge is in a position to be an inclusive educator, and has an obligation to open up the space for multiple pedagogies, or polyvocal debate.

Understanding the discourse surrounding imperialism in an educational setting is necessary for any critical analysis we start.
