Judicial Watch: Military Blasted for Being Unprepared for Climate Change
Judicial Watch ^ | August 8, 2019

Posted on 08/08/2019 5:22:03 PM PDT by OfficialJudicialWatch

A new government-funded study takes an indirect jab at President Trump for pulling out of a costly and dubious global climate accord signed by Obama and chastises the U.S. military for not possessing an “environmentally conscious mindset.” It also claims the Department of Defense (DOD) is “precariously underprepared” for the national security implications of climate change. A lengthy report published by the United States Army War College essentially blasts the DOD—and the president—for ignoring the threats that climate change poses to national security. The distinguished authors, which include Army and Air Force colonels, an Ivy League professor and other highly regarded academics, claim the national security threats include; widespread disease such as malaria, severe weather, reduced water and food supplies, mass migration and the displacement of millions of people.

OK!! Everybody pay attention!
Lesson for today:
1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.
2. The sun is a giant nuclear furnace that controls the climates of all its planets.
3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.
4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.
5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.
Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

More crap from Obama’s perfumed princes that he promoted far above their level of competence. They are SJW’s and not Military Warriors.

...Of interesting note is that the masterminds of this dramatic taxpayer-funded probe admit that “the study itself did not involve original research on the nature or magnitude of climate change.” Rather the acclaimed scholars and military personnel assume, based on what they claim is a preponderance of evidence available, that significant changes in climate change have already occurred and are likely to worsen in the years ahead. “This report accepts as a core assumption the reality of climate change and climate-change related global warming,” the authors write. “Regardless of the science behind climatological projections of global warming, climate change is a controversial political issue. For the purposes of this study, we ignore that controversy.”...
***************************************************
These idiots forgot (or, more likely, never learned) one of the axioms of military common sense... “Assumption is the mother of all screw ups”. I cleaned the language of this axiom up a bit before posting.

This would make a good Hitler rants video.

“The enemy is attacking here, and here”.

‘No worries, Steiner will counter attack’

‘Mein Fuhrer...’

‘Mein Fuhrer, Steiner couldn’t attack because we’ve used up all our carbon credits...’

I seriously doubt that. I’m sure the military has plenty of parkas.

I retired 26 years ago. Algore was “saving our planet” as second banana in the Clinton administration. Pat Schroeder was ruining the Navy after the Tailhook “scandal”. From those depths how far we’ve sunk.
