1ac- Cuban OilTournament: 1st2nd Year Barkley Forum | Round: 2 | Opponent: Wheeler PN | Judge: Bollinger, Chris Contention 1: Solvency First – Plan is effective, topical, and US firms would say “yes”. Second – Cuba also says “yes”. This spills-into broader coop. US is pre-requisite for Cuban oil sector development Contention 2: Oil Spill Cuban oil drilling inevitable. The embargo only locks-out US safety experts. Embargo fails and stops pro-active approach to spills. Absent pro-active steps, accidents are inevitable. US experts key. Aff boosts reaction time. US Experts solve best. Spill spreads and kills ecosystems. That’s key to regional biodiversity. Biodiversity in specific hotspots checks extinction. Key to ag, medicine, and ecosystems Caribbean is one such hotspot. Independently, another major spill would crush the US economy Avoiding US economic decline key to global economy. Global economic decline causes nuclear war Contention 3: Relations US-Cuban oil coop checks US-China resource war. US-Sino war goes nuclear. Crisis management won’t check This specific type of resource war escalates – causing huge death tolls. Plan sufficiently hedges US energy security. US-Cuban oil coop key to check existing US-Latin American tensions. Now a key time for US-Latin American ties. Permanent collapse coming. Cuba is key to US-Latin American Relations. Specifically spills-over to global coop on nuclear material transfers. Nuclear terrorism escalates to major nuclear war. Global coop on material transfers is key. | 9/24/13 |
1ac- DeferenceTournament: JV State | Round: 4 | Opponent: - | Judge: - In Guantanamo Bay, 44 prisoners are force-fed every day. Standard Operating Procedure is to strap the detainee to a chair while cuffed, insert a long tube from the nose into the stomach, and pump nutrients into the stomach with a syringe. The process takes over two hours. It’s so painful that it creates permanent health problems and scars the victims for life. The dehumanization that torture necessitates breeds a way of thinking about other people that turns us into a brutal, violent people that won’t think twice about the humanity of those outside of our moral compass – this makes all forms of violence possible CIL Advantage A renewed commitment to international law is key to a cooperative international environment that prevents great power wars, environmental collapse and disease spread Deference Adv Guantanamo is a flagrant example of judicial deference, overturning that doctrine would crush readiness. It is easy for those of us whose lives are shaped by the safety of privilege to maintain the false believe that the absence of war is peace. The attempt to "prevent" war ignores structures that is the cause of it There’s an urgent need for education at all levels to discuss the negative concepts of war and an effort to prevent and preclude the resort to war. | 2/9/14 |
1ac- GuantanamoTournament: JV State | Round: Octas | Opponent: Johns Creek RV | Judge: Duval, Eback, Shenoy Thus, the 1AC is not a call to State action, but rather one of individual protest and dissent, for when we call upon the State to engage in a revolution for our agency the project always fails. Constant simulation is destructive to the cornerstones of our existence. We instead view the ¬¬¬¬¬1AC, this very moment, as a political act, which refuses the State, and instead inhabits a discursive space, which refuses to be co-opted and does not lead to violence or martyrdom. CONTENTION 1 is Imperialism US Imperialism results in a death drive in which we sacrifice humanity in order to save it. A sacrificial genocide arises from the totalitarian illusion that there are no alternatives resulting in a collective suicide and endless conflict. Imperialism inevitably fails and guarantees endless wars Returning Guantanamo is a prerequisite to challenging American imperialism in Latin America Our stance against the US’ occupation of Guantanamo acts lifts the barrier against economic engagement and a stands against militarist intervention and the colonialist agenda which the base represents. Finally, the argument that Guantanamo belongs to the U.S. because we took it by military force which is central to U.S. imperial dogma – we must counter that discourse with a rejection of colonialist occupation. SECOND, BIOPOWER Guantanamo is the norm-producing convergence of image and biopower leading to ultimate sovereign authority over life and death, integrating the genocidal policies of the Nazis The popular image of Guantánamo …used during the Third Reich. Guantanamo reproduces its inmates as bare life—life stripped of all its political, social and ethical meaning—and purposively keeps them in a space between literal death and non-existence by force feeding them to live. This means Guantanamo uniquely permits the maximum indeterminacy which advances biopower, or, in the words of Agamben, the ultimate bare life. As Agamben has ….maximum indeterminacy’. The way that we frame debates is crucial to the implementation of the aff – our questioning is key to the recognition and understanding of the vulnerability of life. Even if they win that the we don’t actually return Guantanamo, we create a movement which provides the conditions for a more generalized form of horror and outrage necessary to end all violence – this proves we access spillover. | 2/11/14 |
