Kerry Compares Climate Change to WWII: ‘Different in Character,’ But Same ‘Potential to Do Harm’
PJ Tatler ^ | 8-31-2015 | Bridget Johnson

Secretary of State John Kerry said today at an Arctic conference in Anchorage that “anybody running for any high office in any nation in the world” should visit a place where the “seismic challenge” of climate change is happening “and inform themselves about this.”

“And we as leaders of countries will begin to witness what we call climate refugees moving – you think migration is a challenge to Europe today because of extremism, wait until you see what happens when there’s an absence of water, an absence of food, or one tribe fighting against another for mere survival,” Kerry told the Global Leadership in the Arctic: Cooperation, Innovation, Engagement, and Resilience (GLACIER) Conference.

“We are hardly the first generation in human history to face uncertainty about the future. Seventy-five years ago, our predecessors faced a world that was literally engulfed by strife, where seemingly all of Europe was overrun by evil, and civilization itself seemed to be in peril. We had leaders then who rose to that occasion, and we have all seen a world that is better for what came out of it with the United Nations and multilateralism and commitments to humanitarian and other missions,” he said.

“The threat posed by climate change is obviously entirely different in character. But it is not different in its global reach or its potential to do harm. And the urgent need for global cooperation, for global commitment, for global choices is exactly the same as it was in the 1930s and ’40s and ’50s. If only we fully grasp that, .......

What an incredible insult to an entire generation of Americans and Europeans who fought the axis powers to keep the world free of their tyranny.

Both offensive and delusional. Kerry is nuts. Honestly, with that and his Iran garbage “deal” I do not think the man is all there.

If they can make so many Americans (and the world for that matter) believe that Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton, and Barack Hussein Obama are loyal public servants with honor and integrity, why then would we not assume they think they can foist off on us yet another ploy for total world domination in the form of Climate Change?

"...wait until you see what happens..."

Still waiting.

How green is Al Gore's $9 million Montecito oceanfront villa?

The Huffington Post carries photos of the villa on 1.5 acres with wine cellar, terraces, six fireplaces, five bedrooms and nine bathrooms. It picked them up from the Real Estalker website, which says the Gores actually bought the property last year through their Tennessee-based trust and did not use their own names.

If you mean marxism by any and all means is a form of mental derangement then yes. If you mean that Kerry and the regime believe this tripe? Then NO, it is part of the whole Alinsky paradigm to subvert America.

Which leads me to believe Kerry (Obama, of course) and progressives never ever truly appreciate / appreciated what the WWII victory achieved. Plenty of lip service of the greatest generation blah blah blah, but no understanding period.

To promote climate change hysteria, you go to Alaska in late August for photo ops without snow.

It’s SUMMER. It happens every year about this time.

To finish my thoughts,

So instead of an Axis of Evil sixty/seventy years ago, the progs now push the One Worlder rule and view on us.

Without the full scale blood shed of WWII, end result will make China’s Great Leap Forward under Mao look like a garden party.

If Glo-BULL warming is equal to WWII in his eyes, then he is equal to Joseph Goebbels.

They are all losing their minds

And the reason D Trump is doing so well is because he understands and speaks English ... the kind of English all of us Americans were taught and speak.


And obviously the lamestream doesn't speak it because it baffles THEM.


I truly believe we are going to be very jubilant come January 23, 2017

Dear John,

Move your yacht back to Massachusetts.
