John Kerry Compares Global Warming to Nuclear Strike

The Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations committee, John Kerry, compares climate change to 9/11 or a nuclear strike.

It’s amazing stuff, for the wrong reasons. The powerful Massachusetts Democrat and decision maker says global warming is a grave national security threat that we ignore at our peril. Does this mean our military could someday be out in the fields fighting bovine flatulence? What about about containing volcanic eruptions? The entire Industrial Revolution can't hold a candle to a single major volcanic eruption when it comes to dumping so-called greenhouse gases, also known as carbon dioxide, into the atmosphere.

Kerry also fears climate change will make Al Qaeda even more dangerous when all the ice melts in the Himalayas. Sounds like a really bad movie script.

Mr. Kerry says to consider his words our "warning memo." The good news is we only have to listen to this for 10 more years, which is when the Earth won’t end as Kerry fears.

Hmmm...why do I suspect this silly rhetoric won't end in 10 years?

The threats were assessed by top Navy officers. You can view the SFRC hearing by clicking on the title or read their statements - http://foreign.senate.gov/hearings/2007/hrg070509a.html

Kerry said, http://www.cfr.org/publication/by_type/video.html :
What's the worst that would happen if we do the things we're proposing? ... the worst that would happen is we are all healthier because of cleaner air; we will have transformed our economies and created millions of clean energy, high value added, sustainable jobs; we will have lived up to our environmental responsibility to create sustainable development policies, planted and saved forests and reduced disease and toxic poisoning that comes from antiquated industrial practices; ...; and we will have hugely enhanced our security by becoming less fossil fuel and and foreign-oil dependent.

But what if the deniers and delayers are wrong? What are the consequences then? Plain and simple: sheer catastrophe.

we're suppose to be good shepherds.

Read this article. We are all dupes since the global warming hysteria is all concocted to make us think we have to do something about a theory that has no scientific basis. Even the British government has labeled Al Gore's 'Inconvenient Truth' propaganda.
