Real Climate Science

President al-Assad: Before they vote, they should ask themselves a simple question: What have previous wars achieved for America, or even for Europe? What has the world achieved from the war in Libya and the spread of terrorism in its aftermath? What has the world achieved from the wars in Iraq and other places? What will the world achieve from supporting terrorism in Syria?

Members of congress are entrusted to serve in the best interests of their country. Before they vote, they need to weigh up their decision in the interests of their own country. It is not in the interests of the US to perpetuate instability and extremism in the Middle East. It is not in their interests to continue – what George Bush started – spreading wars in the world.

Stephen Hale: Global-warming skeptics equivalent of Flat Earth Society

I read with disappointment the Aug. 5 Commentary piece by Steve Goreham “(Why the climate models of global warming are wrong”) and the Aug. 22 one by Mike Stenhouse (“Climate alarms deny the reality in R.I.”).

The real question is not whether global climate change and destabilization by human-caused carbon dioxide emissions are happening (as accepted by 97 percent of the people who have the expertise to answer this question, the planet’s climate scientists).

His only piece of information is Cook’s fraudulent 97% number.

Instead, the question is why The Journal publishes commentary by climate change deniers such as Goreham and Stenhouse, with their usual statements that are often factually wrong and, rather than shed light on a complex topic, only serve to confuse the public. Why doesn’t The Journal give similar coverage to the Flat Earth Society?

Syrian Rebels Claim to Take Over Chemical Weapons

8/29/2012

The Supreme Military Council of the Syrian rebels released on a statement on Tuesday which said that the rebel forces took control of an army missile base in Damascus, in which ten ready-to-launch missiles were found. Some of the missiles, according to the statement, were converted to carry non-conventional warheads.

Panetta: We’ve Lost Track of Some Syrian Chemical Weapons

Friday, September 28, 2012

The U.S. has lost track of some of Syria’s chemical weapons, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said Friday, and does not know if any potentially lethal chemicals have fallen into the hands of Syrian rebels or Iranian forces inside the country.

Syria’s chemical weapons are top concern for the U.S. and for regional allies worried that they could lbe stolen by rebels or terrorists organizations, or given to Iran for safekeeping.

Last week Obama said that he wanted to start WWIII with an illegal two day attack on Syria. Five days later Congress has raised the ante to ninety days.

The good thing about nuclear warfare is that it doesn’t involve chemical weapons.

Now Obama wants to do the the same for Syria.

After weathering a barrage of criticism from Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), Kerry turned the tables and demanded to know whether or not he believed that air strikes would make Assad more or less likely to use chemical weapons again.

“It’s unknown,” Paul replied.

Jabbing his finger, Kerry disagreed, saying it was guaranteed that Assad would use chemical weapons again if the U.S. doesn’t act.

There is no limit to how far you can take end justifies the means logic. Hitler was really good at that type of thinking too.

If they ended free speech, it would make it much easier to implement Obamacare.
