GLOBAL WARMING; FACT OR FICTION; THE REST OF THE STORY(1)

"Oceans lash our coasts. Deserts burn. The sky provides no shelter. Turmoil of Biblical proportions threatens not just our weather, but life itself. Global Warming is upon us."

Those words aren't from the preview trailer of the silly, overblown, over-dramatic film, Day After Tomorrow that invaded theaters a few years ago. And, they aren't just carefully selected "scare" words, developed from a sweep through a thesaurus. These are the opening words to yet another hysterical diatribe passing as "news" these days on the subject of global warming. This particularly silly one greeted readers of a recent issue of Playboy Magazine. The article was, of course, accompanied by the obligatory pictures of smokestacks belching over a city, and the melting of icebergs.

You hear it everywhere. Global warming is a fact. It is here. It is now unstoppable. The Polar Ice Cap is melting. Polar bears are endangered. Greenland is actually turning green! Hurricanes are blowing with more force. Tornadoes are growing in numbers. Water levels are increasing, threatening to flood New York City. Human existence is threatened. And, of course, the deserts are starting to burn. We are assured that scientists are in near total agreement with the assessment.

The media is in a frenzy; rushing to report the latest news release from special interest groups with the latest report or prediction. Al Gore (who claims he invented the internet) is rushing his hi-tech docu-drama to the theaters in order to whip up even more frenzy. Corporations are being forced to turn "green" to show their "corporate social responsibility" in the wake of the coming disaster.

Global warming has become a euphemism for a "political agenda". There is Socialism, Capitalism, and Global Warmingism. It has become a religion run by phanatics reminiscent of the leaders of the darkest days of the Inquisition that nearly destroyed civil society, only a few hundred years ago. We are not to question the great god of "Global Warming." Those who do are separated from civil society (as are those who claim the 9/11 was an inside job).

The simple truth is: there is no scientific consensus on global warming. In fact, as the media frenzy screams global warming, there are a growing number of scientists who are expressing their doubts.

In 1992, just prior to the UN's Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, 425 scientists and other intellectual leaders signed The Heidelberg Appeal, a quiet call for reason in dealing with the climate change issue. The Heidelberg Appeal expresses a conviction that modern society is the best-equipped in human history to solve the world's ills, provided that they do not sacrifice science, intellectual honesty, and common sense to political opportunism or irrational fears. Today The Heidelberg Appeal has signed by more than 4,000 scientists and leaders from 100 countries, including more than 70 Nobel Prize winners.

Also in 1992, another statement form some 47 atmospheric scientists was issued, saying "such policies"(greenhouse global warming theories) derive from highly uncertain scientific theories. The statement cited a survey of atmospheric scientists, conducted in the summer of 1991, which "confirms that there is no consensus about the cause of the slight warming observed during the past century." The statement went on to say, "We are disturbed that activists, anxious to stop energy and economic growth, are pushing ahead with drastic policies, without taking notice of recent changes in the underlying science."

In 1995, over 65 scientists and climate experts, from research labs and universities worldwide, signed the Leipzig Declaration, in answer to the International Symposium on the Greenhouse Controversy, held in Leipzig, Germany, that year. In part, the declaration says,
In a world in which poverty is the greatest social pollutant, any restriction on energy use that inhibits economic growth should be viewed with caution. For these reasons, we consider "carbon taxes" and other drastic control policies - lacking credible support from the underlying science - to be ill-advised, premature, fraught with economic danger, and likely to be counterproductive.

In 1997, a Gallop Poll of eminent North American climatologists showed that 83 percent did not support the claims of the green house theory of Global Warming.

In 1998, The Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine (OISM) issued a petition for signature by atmospheric scientists saying there is no scientific evidence indicating that greenhouse gases cause global warming. That petition was signed by more than 17,000 scientists and leaders involved in the issue. (Emphasis mine).

Global warming scarmongers have tried to discredit these statement from the opposition, saying either they are too old to be counted in today's debate, or that they weren't signed by real scientists. Neither is true. One only has to look at the signers on the documents and statements to know who and what they are. The relevance of the documents can be answered in two ways. First, most of the signers of these documents from the 1990's hold the same positions today. Second, as is the fallacy in the global warming debate, such drastic climate changes - as described in the scarmongers' diatribes - would not come about overnight. Though the proponents would have you believe otherwise, 15 years is but a microsecond in the study of earth's activities.

However there is great question about the validity of the documents promoted by the global warming crowd. There is strong, documented evidence to show they care little about sound science and facts, and much more about their political agenda.

For example, in may of 1996, unannounced and possibly unauthorized changes to the United Nation's report on climate change touched off a firestorm of controversy within the scientific community. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the science group that advises the United Nations on the global warming issue, presented a draft of its report in December 1995, and it was discovered that substantial changes and deletions had been made to the body of the report, to make it conform to the Policymaker's Summary. Specifically, two key paragraphs written by the scientists were deleted. They said

1. "None of the studies cited above has shown clear evidence that we can attribute the observed climate changes to increases in greenhouse gases."

2. "No study to date had positively attributed all or part of the climate change to...man-made causes."


That was not the last time data has been manipulated by the IPCC to fit its political agenda. In 2005, a federal hurricane research scientist named Chris Landsea resigned from the UN-sponsored IPCC climate assessment team, because his group's leader had politicized the process.

Landsea said in his resignation letter, "It is beyond me why my colleagues would utilize the media to push an unsupported agenda that recent hurricane activity had been due to global warming." He went on to say, "I personally cannot, in good faith, contribute to a process that I view as being both motivated by pre-conceived agendas and being scientifically unsound."

In 2006, the voices of reason are speaking out louder than ever. Professor Bob Carter, a geologist at James Cook University, Queensland, Australia, says the global warming theory is neither environmental or scientific, but rather, "a self-created political fiasco." Carter explains that "climate changes occur naturally all the time, partly in predictable cycles, and partly in unpredictable cycles."

Meanwhile, more than 60 leading international climate change experts have gone on record to urge Canada's new Prime Minister to carefully review global warming policies, warning that "Climate change is real is a meaningless phrase, used repeatedly by activits to convice that public that a climate catastrophe is looming, and humanity is the cause."

In April, 2006 using terperature readings from the past 100 years, 1,000 computer simulations, and the evidence left in ancient tree rings, Duke University scientists announced that "the magnitude of future global warming will likely fall well short of current highest predictions." The study was supported by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Department of Energy, and the National Science Foundation. Gabriele Hegerl, of Duke's Nicholas Schools of the Environment and Earth Sciences, said her study discounts dire predictions of skyrocketing temperatures.

In 2004, the Heartland Institute published a report by Dr. Richart Lindzen, the Alfred P. Sloan Professor of Atmosphereic Sciences of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Dr. Lindzen reported that global warming is unlikely to be a dangerous future problem, with or without the implementation of such programs as the Kyoto Protocol. Linzen, a member of the IPCC, and one of the world's leading climatologists, said that alarmist media claims to the contrary, are fueled more by politics than by science.

Said Dr. Lindzen,
With respect to science, consensus is often simply a sop to scientific illiteracy. After all, if what you are told is alleged to be supported by all scientists, then why do you have to bother to understand it? You can simply go back to treating it as a matter of religious belief, and you never have to defend this belief, except to claim that you are supported by all scientists, except for a handful of corrupted heretics.

So why, if scientists are researching the issue, and if there is no consensus that global warming is a reality, is this voice not being heard? Why is a new-panic building in the news media, on Capitaol Hill, and in research labs across the nation and in the international community?

Answer: Fear and money.'

Simply put, scientists know where the grants will come from to pay their salaries, Dr. Patrick Michaels, a leading opponent to the global warming scare-mongers, calls it the federal/science paradigm. He describes it this way: Tax $ = Grants = Positive Feedback Loop to Get more Grants.

Says Dr. Michaels,
What worker-bee scientist is going to write a proposal saying that global warming is exaggerated, and he doesn't need the money? Certainly, no one wanting advancement in the agency! There is no alternative to this process, when paradigms compete with each other for the finite funding.

The only ones who can openly oppose the party line of the day are those who don't need the grants, or who have some other source of funding. There aren't many.

The money is in global warming, because it's being pushed by a political agenda that wants power. Power in Washington. Power on the international stage. Power over economic development. Power over energy. In short, power over the motor of the world. It's driven by literally thousands of large and small non-gonernmental organizations (NGOs) sanctioned by the United Nations, and implemented by a horde of bureaucrats, university academics, and an ignorant, but pliable, news media.

Case in point: The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) used to publish the journal Science. Since 2000, it has published roughly 75 commentaries supporting the idea that global warming is a serious problem requiring massive solutions. Now, the AAAS acts as a massive lobbying operation pushing this agenda. Taxpayers have now provided $20 billion into the scientific community for global warming work.

Moreover, Science, and its British counterpart Nature, won't publish articles to the contrary of the agenda. If a scientist wants the prestige of being published, then he must carry the global warming banner.

According to Dr. Michaels, this is how it works,
They take a little truth and distort it, or study it into a lot of revenue for them. Them = Academia + Environmental non governmental organizations + private scientific fields + Government + all the associated public and private organizations supporting this shell.

Concludes Dr. Michaels in his landmark book, Meltdown
This junk science works for the fish movement, smart growth, sustaining development, rapid transit, wet lands, critical areas, water rights, property rights, fossil fuels, logging, justifying huge government and environmental wildlife corridor land buy-ups with public money, changing regulatory laws, changing high court opinions, escalating enforcement codes, on and on.

It's all thrown into the offering plate, as the taxpayer sits in the pew of the Church of Global Warming.

Federal spending on climate research has ballooned since the early 1990's, from a few hundred million dollars, to $1.7 billion today. As Dr. Michaels points out, scientists who don't toe the party line don't share in that bounty.

Blasphemy or not, here's the truth about global warming.

As reported by Dr. Lindzen:
The global temperature is never constant, and it has no choice but to increase or decrease - both of which it does, on all known time scales. That this quantity has increased about 0.6 degrees C (or about 1 degree F) over the past century is likely. A relevant question is whether this is anything to worry about.

Professor Bob Carter says the public had been brainwashed by politicians and bureaucrats into believing world industrialization has created "climate change" that will lead to widespread disaster. However, he shows that a period of similar warming occurred between 1918 and 1940, before industrialization really began, followed by a cooling between 1940 and 1965, a period during which human-caused emissions were accelerating.

In fact, looking deeper into history reveals that global warming and cooling are simply a regular occurrence. According to Robert Essenhigh, Professor of energy conservation at Ohio State University, the ice sheets at the poles have been melting since the early 1900s, and the Earth's warming had begun about the middle 1600s.

That warming trend followed a 300 - 400 year cooling period, commonly known as the Little Ice Age, which came after the much hotter Medieval Warm Period, running roughly A.D. 900 to 1300. During that period, the Vikings had two settlements on the West coast of Greenland. The settlements vanished, with the onset of the Little Ice Age. This is the same area global warming scaremongers are panicked over, because some grass is now growing there. In fact, history shows such growth is nothing new.

We are told, however that man-made carbon dioxide is the source of the global warming problem. As Professor Essenhigh asks, "What has carbon dioxide to do with this?"

He explains,
The two principal thermal-absorbing and thermal-emitting compounds in the atmosphere are water and carbon dioxide. However - and this point is continually missed - the ratio of water to carbon dioxide is something like 30-to-1 as an average value. At the tip it is something like 100-to-1. This means that the carbon dioxide is simply "noise" in the water concentration, and anything carbon dioxide could do, water has already done.


"So," he asks, "If the carbon dioxide is increasing, is it the carbon dioxide driving the temperature, or is the rising temperature driving up the carbon dioxide?" In other words, the carbon dioxide issue is irrelevant to the debate over global warming.

But what about all of those storms? We can see the weather changing before our eyes, we're told. We are experiencing the death, destruction, plagues, extinction, biblical catastrophes at alarming rates. Any fool can see - those reports simply show how effective the propaganda machine has been.

The truth about the hurricanes is that during the past 35 years, the average number of "significant" tropical cyclones in the Southern regions, including the Pacific Ocean and the Southern Indian Ocean, is about 28.5 storms per year. The breakdown by decade is: 1970's - 32.9; 1980s - 27.8; 1990s - 29.1; and the 2000s, so far - 25.0. It is interesting to note that so far in the 2000s the numbers are actually below average. Even if one calculates just the last ten years, it only amounts to 28.5 - well within the average.

The fact is researchers are now looking into Hurricane Katrina to determine its true strength. It is currently listed as a category 4-storm, but it will probably be downgraded to a category 3. It is important to remember that the disaster of New Orleans was a result of bad government not taking care of the levees. There was relatively little actual hurricane damage.

Ice is melting on the edge of the caps, because it always melts in the summer. But research shows that the core of the ice is actually thicker than ever. And the burning deserts? Well, that's what desert do, isn't it?

It's easy to distort the facts when you start from the premise that global warming is a fact, and then one must only gather details to support the premise. It's easy to find film footage natural occurrences, like melting ice and beached whales, and then put your own caption on it - especially when you are armed with millions of dollars in grant money, and an impressive title to go with it. A published report in a prestigious magazine, accompanied by a news story in a major newspaper, will lead to speeches in front of a gathering of one's peers, and on to a book deal. It's good to go along, to get along.

So, look out. The Global Warming machine will be in full charge mode as Al Gore invades theaters with his new documentary titled An Inconvenient Truth. The primal panic will reach a deafening scream, sure to drown out the voices of reason and truth. The ones that say there is no global warming!

THE WAR ON AMERICA


Part 1

Part 2


George Bush has now declared open war upon the American people by demanding that congress pass the Military Commissions Act of 2006.(HR 6166)

Do you favor (1) allowing the President to define torture, (2) strip the court of judicial review via habeas corpus (even though the constitution does not allow you too except in cases of invasion or rebellion), (3) allowing the President to jail American citizens arbitrarily and without court review by labeling them a "terrorist" (such as an evangelical Christian)?

The only appropriate response---- vote out any incumbent in the next election.

Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden good things from you. For among my people are found wicked men: they lay wait, as he that setteth snares; they set a trap, they catch men. As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit; therefore they are become great, and waxen rich. Shall I not visit for these things? Saith the Lord: shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this? Jeremiah 5:25-27, 29a. KJV

Friends our time is short. Our rights and freedoms are being systematically stripped from this nation by an elite hell-bent on the destruction of America.

Will you take a stand against this evil while there is still time?

NEXT TERROR EXERCISE TO GO LIVE IN SEATTLE


In the heard on the street category, a caller to Dr. Stanley Monteith's Radio Liberty radio show on the Genesis Communications Network GCN Live.com stated that military sources have indicated that the next live terrorist exercise is scheduled for Seattle, Washington. No time frame given.

During the terrorist attack on the world trade center on 9/11 a series of disaster drills and war games code named Operation TRIPOD were being staged under command of Vice President Dick Cheney. Participants at the time were bound by official gag orders not to discuss the exercises.(1) NORAD was also conducting an even larger set of war games in NORAD's northeast sector named Operation Vigilant Warrior.

Because these exercises were run as a smoke screen to the 9/11 tragedy designed to cover the governments false flag operation one has reason to be concerned.

EPILOGUE



Pastor David J. Meyer had this to say in October's newsletter.

... a spiritually deadly condition that has overtaken our nation and the entire world. It is a condition that is described in both the Old and New Testaments of the Bible. This present condition allows the Luciferian or satanic forces of the antichrist New World Order to continually further their cause and to draw ever closer to their ultimate and final objective. That objective has been to gradually realign nations, economies, and religions through brainwashing concepts of globalism. This brainwashing is designed to produce a one-world population that is welded together by collective thought and manipulated by misdirection away from truth. It would not be enough to induce people to not think, but also to not care was the goal. The Illuminati conspirators have always known that the threat of fear and terror would bring about a spiritual and mental resignation on the part of the targeted population, and thus they could be controlled.

"Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men."

II Peter 3:3-7

... the Apostle Peter describes the same condition that Jeremiah revealed and used the words “willingly ignorant” to describe the people of earth in the last days. This is especially true of the professing Christians. Very few of them ever talk about Bible prophecy anymore. One vital point regarding this serious problem that I urge you to never forget is that it is not the work of the antichrist to deceive the unbelievers of this word! Satan already has the unbelievers right where he wants them. The work of the antichrist is to deceive the Christians. When Christians stop reading the true Bible, and when they no longer pray and fight the enemy, the first thing they lose is their gift of discernment. This is a gift that is given only to those who are actively engaging the enemy in battle. What follows is an inability to think for themselves and to understand the evil world that they live in. The professing Christians then become like the characters in the Wizard of Oz with no heart, no brain, and no courage! The Illuminati and Satan are counting on that!


"Then I would know the truth of the fourth beast, which was diverse from all the others, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth were of iron, and his nails of brass; which devoured, brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with his feet;

And of the ten horns that were in his head, and of the others which came up, and before whom three fell; even of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spake very great things, whose look was more stout than his fellows.

I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them;

Until the Ancient of days came, and the judgement was given to the saints of the most High; and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom.

Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.

And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.

And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.

But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end."

Daniel 7:19-26 KJV.
