Title: UBL Blames USA for AGW
Post by: SSG Snuggle Bunny on January 29, 2010, 09:45:00 AM
Well, who doesn't, really?

Quote
CAIRO  —  Al Qaeda leader Usama bin Laden has called for the world to boycott American goods and the U.S. dollar, blaming the United States and other industrialized countries for global warming, according to a new audiotape released Friday.

In the tape, broadcast in part on Al-Jazeera television, bin Laden warned of the dangers of climate change and says that the way to stop it is to bring "the wheels of the American economy" to a halt.

He blamed Western industrialized nations for hunger, desertification and floods across the globe, and called for "drastic solutions" to global warming, and "not solutions that partially reduce the effect of climate change."

Bin Laden has mentioned climate change and global warning in past messages, but the latest tape was his first dedicated to the topic. The speech, which included almost no religious rhetoric, could be an attempt by the terror leader to give his message an appeal beyond Islamic militants.

I post this, not to embarrass TNO or other climate-health deniers with scandalous associations, but to point out how easily this issue can be exploited by the worst of the gene pool.

UBL doesn't give a camel's tight sphincter about the health of the planet but he knows AGW would cripple us economically and hence militarily. Moreover it is an easy cudgel to wield in the media to cultivate anti-US sentiment.

In short: he's looking for useful idiots.

It should motivate people to triple-check their doubling down on anti-American singularity.

Considering that Osama Bin Laden, like you, is of the mind that homosexuality is immoral, I guess we can say that you're in good company too.

It further illustrates that the entire AGW debate is about politics, and not science........

The base motives behind UBL's remark, or the positions of the UN, the EU, et al, are about redistribution of wealth, and bringing the US down from its sole superpower status.......

Well, in your defense, sir, it does seem you're right.

He didn't mention homosexuality, unless I missed it.......it was generic, not really directed at you.....

Okay. Now that the dustup has died down perhaps we can get to the topic at hand.

I guess it doesn't surprise me that OBL is adding climate change to his ever-growing list of grievances. After all, political Islam is the religion of grievances more than anything else.

Damn.....I'm not going to get overconfident, but I think that we can agree on that.......
