The Israeli public broadcaster has come under fire from angry listeners after broadcasting an interview with Tony Abbott in which he said the world was “in the grip of a climate cult”.

During the interview, recorded on 15 December while his home state of New South Wales was fighting terrifying bushfires, Abbott denied that carbon dioxide was driving global warming. The interview was broadcast on New Year’s Eve in a special show reviewing key international issues of the decade.

Abbott said: “While we still seem to be in the grip of a climate cult, the climate cult is going to produce policy outcomes that will cause people to wake up to themselves.”

She is just a child. With mental, intellectual and social disabilities.

I have a nephew with Asperger’s. He does not easily fit into society. Just like Greta.

You think there is something organically wrong with her?

I will say a few prayers tonight for your nephew.

I hope things go as well as they can for him in life.

Are the listeners angry because they are unhappy leftists? Leftists are always unhappy.

They clearly have bought into the claim that mankind is no good and the cause of climate change. Not true.

Maybe some of the listeners will come around to the conclusion that the world is in the grip of a climate cult. All they need is sound and objective science. Common sense will help.

Climate change is real. It is caused by the Sun.

One of my best friends’ kids has autism.

He gets so volatile at the sound of emergency vehicles that they had to move to a very remote street on staten island.

I just looked up Asperger’s and the difference between it and autism.

Hard for a layman to understand if they don’t personally know someone who has them.

It is hard to understand.

I’m just his uncle. I don’t have a complete grasp on Asperger’s. Or the difference between that and autism.

But I do know it’s difficult. And as such I try to keep from insulting Greta. After all - it is her parents that are to blame for her idiot actions.

Child abuse. That’s what Greta’s main problem is.

I have a feeling it’s all going to end bad for her.

She is being used and doesn’t have the maturity yet to see what the end result will be.

angry listeners after broadcasting an interview

This is 2020. Someone could say the sun rises in the east - and you would have "angry listeners".

Also, note the source: the radical left "Guardian". Little point in even posting their crap propaganda.
