With respect for the USMC uniform, if a warrior and strategist sworn to defend the American people puports this faux science, quasi-religion, socialist scam and knife at our throats is our greatest enemy, then whether mentally or morally, sir, your position's been overrun.

Cheney is the chief executive officer of the American Security Project (ASP) and a member of the Department of State’s Foreign Affairs Policy Board.

The religious doctrine called climate change theory is indeed a great threat to our national security.

I guess we should believe the Brig Gen because he says so.

Because he sure didn't rely on facts to back up his premise.

The general did not write this speech. He was given the text by some publicity aide, and he read what was written. The language does not sound like it comes from a Marine general. Cheney probably either owes someone a favor or was given some bonus to read this claptrap. He most likely has no idea what so-called “climate change” is about nor cares.

Cheney is just another partisan Democrat appointee “singing for his supper.”

"The threats of climate change include extreme weather, rising sea levels, reduced military capacity, and conditions that can enable worldwide violence and perpetuate terrorism."

Translation: Climate change weakens the military and strengthens terrorism.

To address this challenge....

More money & more government control. Funny how that's the answer for all our whoas.

Climate change poses undeniable threat to national security

Well, it might if somebody was capable of causing it.

The desk jockey speaks.

Highlights of his military career include tours as Deputy Executive Secretary to Defense Secretaries Cheney and Aspin; ground plans officer for Drug Enforcement Policy in the Pentagon; liaison to the Congressional Commission on Roles and Missions of the Armed Forces; and Inspector General of the Marine Corps.

This is how you earn 4 stars in the new military. You’ll get a fifth if you’re also transgender.

“Having spent more than 30 years in the US Marine Corps, I know what constitutes a national security threat.”

A scam artist. Artillery and commanding Parris island doesn’t make his opinion of climate any better than the average guy you meet on the street.
Now he is trading on the good name of the Corps to advance his business where he is the CEO of some think tank. Wants to keep his mouth firmly clamped to the government teat.

The only climate change we are going to see and feel is when iran starts sending nukes where ever they want.

“that in the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods. It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe that others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and will continue to think that there may be some other explanation. For the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is known to all expert liars in this world and to all who conspire together in the art of lying.”

—Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, vol. I, ch. X

If I were an enemy of the US, I would rejoice at hearing such drivel from a military “leader “.
