Remember French military gear includes a white surrender flag with a mount for the end of their rifles instead of bayonets
Surrender monkeys all

“Washington-based Center for Climate & Security”

Not one dime of our tax money better be funding these enemy propagandists.

Where is Europe going to fight except Europe? Won’t they already be adapted to their own climate?

The exception might be Russia. The last two times “Europe” went after Russia, wasn’t cold weather a big part of what did the “Europeans” in? So climate change will help them this time, right?

“I have to laugh when I think of what Patton would have said about climate change.”

He would have prayed for clear weather for the Americans, snow for the Germans, and mud for Montgomery.

said Erin Sikorsky, director of the Washington-based Center for Climate & Security.

Is this the military expert the headline refers to?

Related: A few years ago, some Democrat wanted the military to file environmental impact studies before each battle.

Climate change is a little real concern. Our current icebreaker fleet is complete crap (the one military area where Russia is actually on top of things), and that’s with us in a warm cycle. What are we going to do when the next ice age rolls around?

So armies haven’t fought in desert heat, humid jungles and freezing temperatures before? Should they now prepare for flaming hail, rivers turning to blood and plagues of frogs and locusts? I don’t think battery powered tanks would do well in those conditions.
