It might have looked like these guys were making stuff up, but that’s just what oil companies and Jewish cabals want you to think to make you paranoid.....
Oh! So that's why my Zionist Master has recently been chortling maniacally when I lick his hand. I thought he was just ticklish.
Seriously, though, this whole affair is potentially tragic. Rational, and wise, decision making certainly requires sound scientific input in many cases. This scandal could seriously undermine popular trust in public science. Hopefully enough of those with pull within the scientific community will recognize the threat and respond sufficiently to restore some public trust. In this event it probably should mean, at minimum, that some individuals lose grants AND official titles AND university posts.
