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

Posted on 02/07/2016 5:35:01 PM PST by Nachum

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. It orders the establishment of a new layer of bureaucracy — a wide array of “climate change boards, councils and working groups” to infuse climate change into “programs, plans and policies.” The Pentagon defines

nothing is below muslim outreach.

i interpret all of these announcements as saying “obama, the worst president in the US, has less than a year left”

it takes the bureaucracy a year just to get to the preliminary stages of undertaking an endevour.

by then this moron will be in the history books.

let’s not get upset by this baboon in his last year.

Honestly.... the best thing we can do over there is watch and take care of our own borders and our own business.

Time for a Republican candidate to step up and clearly say that anyone with or implementing a political agenda in the Pentagon will be FIRED day one. A big broom is coming.

Obamas going into sprint mode now, his last year he’s going to be pulling out all the stops to do as much damage as possible to this country. This is just the tip of the iceberg, wait till we get closer to the end of the year.

“actionable science”??? Is that like consensus science or settled science??

Do they mean climate change, as in a change in the weather each season, or climate trends caused by solar and geological activity?

Some time after word of these new standing orders finally filtered down to some of our troops stationed in Germany, one young man was trying to explain to his German wife how ****ed up things had become but he just wasn’t getting her to see it because she was quite hip on protecting the environment.

Dumbfounded he stared at her for a moment and then it occurred to him...

“Hon, suppose there was a group of Middle Eastern refugees running around raping women. They came to our town and they grabbed a girl off of a bus and passed her around, ****ing her till she was begging them to kill her, and all in front of the guardhouse at the base where I work. And then they find this old couple and make her give all of them a **** *** while he looks on before bashing his head in and then leaving her humiliated and grieving there in the street. Then, because the base gate is a busy place, they find a young soldier coming on shift, they gang up on him, **** his arse and wave maliciously at the guards who have done nothing to stop any of this!”

His wife’s confusion and horror at her husband’s tirade was visibly painted across her face, she raised a finger in preparation to get him to stop but he traps her hand in his, looks her straight in the eyes and continues:

“And then these same men proceed to molest a group of cowering school boys, blonde haired blue eyed angels, their Papa’s pride and joy, they rape them and they kill them one by one. People are fleeing in every direction, there’s panic, but they are fast, they catch two young French girls on vacation and make them confess Mohammad and all that right there in front of the guard house, one does quickly but the other tarries so they rape her, each having her one after the other.”

“Please stop...” the wife moans.

“And they taunt the guards. Finally one takes a knife and cuts down the flowers in front of the base.

“The guards respond: they shoot every last raping, murdering, molesting puke without even a bit of mercy. By this time the base commander has arrived and he surveys the carnage. He demands to know why the guards let things get so out of hand!

“’Sir,’ one man says, ‘when they started attacking the flowers we knew what we had to do, we knew they are bad men.’”

“’Well what the Hell did you think they were before then?!?’ the commander demanded.”

“’Well, um, we thought they maybe were acting out The Aristrocrats.’ the second soldier confessed.”

Whereupon the woman slapped her husband square in the face and ran crying from the room.

He knew he’d really stepped in it this time, after all, her cousin had been one of the French students....

(this shouldn’t be funny, I’m really hoping no one thinks it is, but it was written to show just how, at this rate, ****ed we really are under so-called “progressivism”)

How anyone can avoid leaning toward Putin's side through all this stuff I have no idea.

How Russia arms America's southern neighbors

Ioan Grillo
May 9, 2014

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil -- Russia's push into Ukraine has put many on edge. But less known is that Russia is also strengthening its military links south of the Rio Grande and re-establishing itself as a power in the region.

Vladimir Putin has been strengthening military links here, and Russia is now the largest arms dealer to governments in Latin America, surpassing the United States.

Russia has even floated the possibility of building new military bases in Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua, and putting its warships permanently in the Caribbean.

In the midst of the Ukraine crisis, Russia's top diplomat Sergei Lavrov recently visited Cuba, Peru, Chile, and Nicaragua, where he announced that Russia would also pour money into the new Central American canal project. ..."

Russia Boosts Arms, Training for Leftist Latin Militaries

Moscow defense minister inks deals with Cuba, Venezuela, Nicaragua for joint exercises

BY: Bill Gertz
February 20, 2015

Russia agreed to provide military training for three leftist regimes in Latin America and increase military visits and exercises following a visit last week to the region by Moscow's Defense Minister Sergei Shoygu, Pentagon officials said.

Shoygu met with defense and military leaders in Cuba, Venezuela, and Nicaragua and signed several agreements on warship visits and military training during the visit, which ran from Feb. 11 to 14. It is not clear whether any new arms deals were completed during the visit.

Defense officials said the Russian leader is seeking bases in the region for strategic bomber flights that Shoygu recently promised would include flights over the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean.

The Pentagon needs an extra large enema when Cruz or Trump takes over.

Yes, and they’re all “his”. They’re on board with what’s going on.

Hyperbole, of course, but to some degree it rings true.

Actually, whether it is climate change or not, the current Syria crisis was triggered by severe drought over several years which drove many into the cities where Assad was totally incompetent at dealing with the hunger crisis.

I think the Secret Service should focus on this VERY important issue too. Put them all in rickshaws.
