Pentagon orders commanders to prioritize climate change in all military actions

The Pentagon is ordering the top brass to incorporate climate change into virtually everything they do, from testing weapons to training troops to war planning to joint exercises with allies. A new directive’s theme: The U.S. Armed Forces must show “resilience” and beat back the threat based on “actionable science.” It says the military will not be able to maintain effectiveness unless the directive is followed. It orders the establishment of a new layer of bureaucracy — a wide array of “climate change boards, councils and working groups” to infuse climate change into “programs, plans and policies.” The Pentagon defines

Yup. I did my “duty” in the sixties voluntarily, but I’m not sure this country is worth defending today.

No problem, just slow walk it for a few more months.

Maybe now, they can simply stop doing anything, because it might contribute to global warming. Explosives tend to give off heat when they explode, which causes more global warming.
When will these lunatics leave town?

Man. A Republican president won’t only have to fumigate the White House, he/she would have to fumigate the Pentagon too.

THE VERY first thing a Non-Establishment President MUST DO... is make every single government employee reapply for their job.

Military. Federal Agency. Everyone.

I’m so thankful I retired in 2003

[FlingWingFlyer]

I like that idea.

[Windflier]

So, Zero changed NASA’s mission to Muslim outreach, now our military’s mission is being re-prioritized to global warming?

January 20th, 2017 can’t get here soon enough.

[Chode]

add that to the $60gal biofuel they are using

[Jim Robinson]

FUBO! Selling out our national security for partisan purposes is treason!

[Bayard]

So now we will attack the enemy in a non-bigoted, homo-safe, sexually equal, environmentally friendly and Islamic sympathetic way.

All reports should be made explaining how the military is meeting these very important goals and objectives.

[Lazamataz]

Why do I have the feeling that when the US Military is unleashed against her citizens, that concern for Climate Change will not be on the agenda?

[Lazamataz]

January 20th, 2017 can't get here soon enough.

I keep a thread on that topic.

And as the country descends into madness it becomes painfully obvious that Caligulas horse was a more effective senator than Mitch.

[Windflier]

Yeah. Lazamataz posts the countdown thread every day.

We’d do better to just hire Blackwater to do operations if these people get their way and wreck everything. That’s where all the good personnel will be.

[adorno]

Leave the dirty wars to the enemies. We’ll fight clean.

Now, imagine our tanks using clean energy, and our planes flying with corn-based fuels. But, the U.S. can go and create ‘clean’ hydrogen fuels to fly our planes, and when they get shot down, the plane itself can be used kamikaze-style against the enemies (but, would that be playing dirty?).

Next idea from Obama will be for our troops to fire blanks at their enemies. After all, ‘we are all Muslims now’.

[Stosh]

Finally - a purchaser for my solar-powered tank!

[Irish Eyes]

Thanks, I have not sen it.

:)

[Windflier]

I know. I just alerted another freeper about it.

[Little Ray]

Assuming a decent human being takes over the Presidency, he’s gonna have to relieve a lot ‘perfumed princes’ and plain ol’ a$$-kissers to get the US Armed Forces back on track.

[Red in Blue PA]

Once you view all of Obama’s actions from the point of view of someone who despises American and wants to weaken it in any way he can, then everything makes sense.
