Pentagon orders commanders to prioritize climate change in all military actions
Washington Times ^ | 2/7/16 | Rowan Scarboroug

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.

Why would any young person sign up to serve under this bunch of wackos now running America. Obie today, Shrillary next year. I have two grandsons and the first hint I get that either would be signing up I will be over there and making sure they fully understand how corrupt America has become. Today they are both too busy playing digital games to pay any attention to the 2016 election although the one is at an age for his first time to vote.

Like the old USSR, we will now have a cadre of political-correctness officers to monitor the activity of every unit, both military and civilian, to assure conformance to the agenda.

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

Well, since the USAF can make fuel out of grass, maybe our weapons and ordinance can be made out of wood and manure.

AGW types will want the “Mars Attacks” lasers. They’re the cold, anti-hot type.

I guess that rules out nukes now.

Not at all!

Nukes are needed, indeed required now, to offset and cancel-out glowbull warming with a nuclear winter.

All Navy ships should be converted to sail by the end of 2016. That’s a goal that’s achievable and which will reduce the carbon footprint. Plenty of deck area for mounting masts on the aircraft carriers. The Air Force should be given 5 years to convert to hydrocarbon free flight, and the Army should immediately begin the program of transitioning from firearms to bows and arrows.

Think I can get a job with the SecDef?

Insane. Maybe they should be paying attention to China, Korea, Japan, Vietnam, Taiwan, Thailand, Laos and areas of the middle east.

The SD might be a better comparison than the Gestapo.

When this is all over, every idiot that signed onto that bit o’ bullcrap should be stripped of all pay, rank, privileges and perks then kicked to the curb.

Those instigated this crap should be prosecuted for felony fraud.
