Wesley Clark: Climate Change 'Behind a lot of the Violence in Syria'
Breitbart News ^ | October 31, 2014

Posted on 11/01/2014 8:27:47 AM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer

Gen. Wesley Clark placed part of the blame for the Syrian Civil War on blamed climate change in a discussion on Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time.”

Clark said “It’s what was behind a lot of the violence in Syria, it’s happening in East Africa, it’s happening in West Africa. Right now.”

I always saw Wesley Clark as an example of the Peter Principle - someone who managed to rise to his level of incompetence. Now it’s clear he’s worse - an idiot.

To lie as he does and how high up in the army he got. You would think he would have some pride. History if it remembers him at all will remember what a tool he is.

Yup- 3% of our atmosphere is CO2- Yep just 3%- not nearly enough to create a thick enough blanket in our atmosphere globally to change ANYTHING, but these idiots keep insisting it does- and to top it off, man’s contribution to this 3% is ONLY .004%- not even a 1/3 of a 1/10th of a percent of the total atmospheric CO2-

Can someone lease explain to us how 3% of our atmosphere can change the weather/climate on a global basis? Especially when most of the CO2 is concentrated over tiny isolated spots that have heavy industry?

Since retiring from the military, Wesley new crowd appears to have caused him to become very light in more than just his loafers.

I heard Bill Mcraven once say of Weasley Clark that he was “constantly engaged in abject jackassery”

He might have a point here. You see the climate has been changing for the last 1400 years and these savages have been slaughtering each other and anyone else who comes their way for 1400 years also, thus ipso facto it must be the climate change. I will stick with my own knowledge of history, that warfare is within the nature of man.

And just who do you think earned the nickname of “The Butcher of Belgrade”?

Far more innocent Christian civilians died at his command in Kosovo than ever lived at or visited Waco - 2,467. That is not counting those Christian Serbs who where killed by Albanian and Afghan muslim jihadis during forced marches, or killed by the same as a result of Serb retreats in the face of US pressure.

A war were the Butcher was at the beck and call of the jihadis - for which he was praised in the media. A media who systematically lied about the entire origin and conduct of the war to further bolster the Butcher’s prominence and martial prowess.

Anyone that stupid should be tried out to see if he can learn how to unroll toilet paper for visitors in the Latrine. In Afghanistan.

The real tragedy is that Wesley Clark is now typical of the career oriented politically correct general who is more acolyte than warrior.
