6 November 2009 Thought for the Week: “It is not possible to engage in rational discussion with irrational beliefs. It is also not possible to engage in rational discussion with those whose interest in the global warming bandwagon is as a way to make money or build a career.” - - Prof. Jonathan Katz - Washington University 2009 “…The prosperity of the West is not only our sustenance. It is also the very lifeblood of the struggling nations of the Third World. If our economies fail, we are inconvenienced, but they die. In the past year there have been food riots in a dozen major regions, in protest at the doubling of the price of staple food, which the World Bank blames almost entirely on the biofuel scam. Has your favourite news medium reported the riots and the mass starvation? Probably not. Has it given our starving fellow-men – our brothers and sisters – the same attention and prominence and column inches and frequency of coverage as it has given to every icicle putatively dribbling in Greenland? Certainly not. Go forth into the world in peace; Be of good courage; - - Lord Monckton, in a Valedictorian address to the Heartland International Conference on Climate Change, 10 March 2009 |
REAL AGENDA BEHIND COPENHAGEN CONFERENCEby Donald Auchterlonie Some of the provisions of this 181 page treaty (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change FCCC/AWGLCA/2009/INF.2 15.9.09) are:- Section 38: (a) The government will be ruled by the Conference of Parties (COP) with the support of a new subsidiary body on adaption, and an Executive Board responsible for the management of the new funds… Section 46: (c) Creating legal and regulatory conditions that facilitate adaption, including disaster resilience (e.g., building codes, land-use planning, risk-sharing tools, and strengthening policy coherence among sectors) Section 48 (b) an insurance component to address climate related weather events… to address financial risk…and leverage public and private funding to enhance adaptive capacity. Section 77: The full costs of these actions will be met by the developed nations. Contact your State Senators and ask them to read this treaty and vote against the ratification of it by the Australian government. |
LORD MONCKTON EMAILS AUSTRALIA 'S SENATOR PENNY WONGDear Senator Wong - Greetings from Scotland! My research, published in Physics and Society, a technical newsletter of the “American Physical Society” this month, demonstrates that the IPCC's values for the three key parameters whose product is climate sensitivity are based on only four papers - not the 2,500 that are often mentioned. Such schemes will damage Australia's competitiveness, perhaps fatally; they are prone to corruption in that they incentivize over-claiming by both parties to each trade and by the regulator; they are addressing a non-problem; and, even if the problem were real (as a few largely-politicized scientists persist in maintaining), adaptation as and if necessary would be orders of magnitude cheaper than emissions trading or any other attempt at mitigating the quantities of carbon dioxide that we are (harmlessly) adding to the atmosphere. Therefore I strongly urge you to reconsider your support for this or any emissions-trading scheme. I have read the Australian Government's paper on the proposed scheme, and the science in it is, alas, largely nonsense. Politically, of course, the fatal damage that emissions trading will do to the Australian economy will greatly favour the enemies of the free West, which is why I, as an ally, have locus standi to approach you. Climatically, your emissions-trading scheme will not make any significant difference. There are many other environmental problems that are real: I recommend that the Australian Government should tackle those. Similar warnings are being sent to other legislators worldwide by those of us - now probably in the majority among the scientific community, not that one should do science by head-count - who have studied climate sensitivity and have found the UN's analysis lamentably wanting. The UN's predictions are already being falsified by events: global temperatures have been falling for seven years, and not one of the climate models relied upon so heavily and so unwisely by the IPCC predicted that turn of events. If you introduce an emissions-trading scheme, when it transpires that the scheme and its associated economic damage had never been necessary - and it will, and sooner than you think - you and your party will be flung from office, perhaps forever. It is, therefore, in the long-term vested interest of your party to think again.- Monckton of Brenchley |
'SHELOB ': CORRUPT, BLOATED, SUPRANATIONAL OLIGARCHYLord Monckton advises: “The Copenhagen treaty draft addresses the non-problem of "global warming" with a costly non-solution: communistic world government.
The word "government" appears at para. 38 of the draft as the first of three purposes of a new, expensive, corrupt, many-tentacled, supranational, bureaucratic oligarchy. The world dictatorship will also be given powers to intervene directly - over the heads of elected governments - in the financial, economic and environmental affairs of individual nations. The words "election", "vote", "ballot" and "democracy" do not occur anywhere in the 200 pages of the draft treaty. A stream of very recent scientific papers in the peer-reviewed learned journals demonstrates that the warming effect of additional CO2 in the air is less than one-sixth of what the UN's X-Box 360s and Playstations think it is. The science is in, the models are off, the truth is out, and the scare is over. There is no need for any Copenhagen Treaty. It must not and shall not pass. Government of the people, by the people and for the people shall not perish from the Earth. Action stations: Now is the time for us to do and to be! |
THE 'ONE-WORLDERS KEEP CHURNING OUT THEIR PROPAGANDAAs an example, the following ‘news’ came from the ABC News: 27 October 2009: “The lower house environment committee has spent 18 months examining the effect the changing climate will have on coastal Australia. The committee is calling for a new national approach to managing climate change, rising sea levels and coastal erosion in many Australian communities. The committee's chair, Labor MP Jennie George, wants an all-government ministerial council. "This would replace what is often described as complex and highly fragmented arrangements currently applying across jurisdictions, sectors and agencies," she said. Mr Stokes says the committee's recommendations should be treated as a blueprint for the future of Australia's coastline. "Unless they're adopted, what we're really looking at is the prospect of losing those attributes in the coast and in coastal communities that people find so attractive at the moment," he said. Moral issue: While the committee's report may add practical considerations to the current emissions trading debate - politicians will today be urged to also remember the moral implications of the changing climate. The Chair of the “Australian Religious Response to Climate Change”, Thea Ormerod, says religious leaders from a range of faiths will be calling for higher emissions targets and more assistance for developing countries, when they meet Government and Opposition MPs in Canberra today. (emphasis added...ed) There you have it readers, either we give up our freedom to determine our own destiny, by handing it over to a World Government body – or, we will be struck down by the ‘god of climate change’! The League has obtained copies of the DVD and they are available from the Heritage Book Services in both Victoria and South Australia for $25.00 posted. |
RUDD 'S ASIAN NEW WORLD ORDERby James Reed According to Rudd the UN is bloated: “The new and pressing functional demands of a rapidly unfolding global order are now rubbing up against the increasingly dysfunctional nature of global institutions that are either out of their depth, insufficiently empowered or reduced to a negotiating stalemate by the politics of the lowest common denominator”. So the solution, according to Rudd, is to create yet another one of these dysfunctional institutions. Well, no. What Rudd seems to want is for China to rule the world. After all, China is about to unveil “impressive” measures to curb greenhouse gases. For Rudd, all that is good comes from China. If only he would go there to live - permanently. Then we could have a real dinki-di PM like Penny Wong to save us! |
MINING MAGNATE DEFENDS CHINA FROM 'RACISTS 'by Brian Simpson This is of course absurd but let’s follow the argument where it leads. China is a far from racist country. The very character for China denotes that it is the centre of the world. The Han Chinese for thousands of years have had no problem discriminating against other Asians and do so today. So even if these foreign investment rules were “racist”, which they are not, they are not doing, contrary to Palmer, anything the Chinese themselves would be unfamiliar with. Recall also that China is a communist society that, under Mao, murdered millions of its own people. Beijing has celebrated the 60th anniversary of communist power, when it should be lamenting 60 years of tyranny and oppression. In the scheme of things, discriminating against China, openly, makes a lot of survival sense. |
ARE PHYSICISTS CRAZY?by Brian Simpson |
ITALIAN PM GIVES MULTICULTURALISM THE NOODLE!by James Reed |
A POLICE RACIAL BIAS?by James Reed Actually there are more factors at work as the AIC point out. Geography plays a part, with Aborigines in remote communities often lacking alternatives to detention. But, I believe, beyond all of this is the sorry fact that relative to their population numbers, there are a disproportionate number of Aboriginal offenders. The standard line here is that social disadvantage is the key cause. Perhaps, but racial realists may suspect other causes. |
THE CHINESE INVASIONby James Reed Dan Ryan (“China’s Heartless One-Child policy is Aborting our Growth”, The Australian 25/9/09, p.14) criticises China’s one-child policy on moral grounds but as the title of this article indicates, he is concerned about even more economic growth. He says that “China has one of the lowest population densities in Asia and far less than many European countries”. The Asian capitalist experiment is the ruling elite’s last big game. When it fails, at the price of the destruction of a large part of the planet, these once elite creatures will be excreted with the toxins of modernity. The hope is that there will still be a world left to rebuild. |
THE ROAD...by Brian Simpson Yet wild dogs mauled to death two men in an Alice Springs camp recently and ate their flesh (The Australian, 23/9/09, p.3). Northern Territory Coroner, Greg Cavanagh said: “It’s unacceptable that in the 21st century in an Australian town…packs of dogs roam the streets, biting, mauling and eating parts of citizens.” Indeed. But dog attacks are not uncommon in that part of the world. Perhaps it is the shape of things to come as insane economic and environmental policies steer us in the direction of The Road. |
HATE CRIMES USAby James Reed The Matthew Shepard and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act is named after two men murdered in 1969. Shepard was a homosexual college student who was beaten to death. Byrd was a black who was dragged to death behind a pick-up truck. The same year, a white man was also killed by blacks in a similar fashion but that didn’t concern the White liberals. Both killers of Shepard and Byrd were arrested, tried and sentenced to life imprisonment or death. What more punishment could be dealt out: torture for racists and anti-gays? No doubt the idea is for lesser crimes like assault to become more substantial. Thus, racists could serve more time for “racism” than assault in most US States. In other words, the real concern of the elites here is not stopping crime but pursuing their old dragon – racism. Now available: The DVD featuring Dr. Fredrick Toben’s August F.B.

CLEVER LANGUAGE TO PUSH ITS CAUSESJanet Albrechtsen Blog October 14, 2009 : The Left has a gift for using clever language to push its causes. The trick is to start with a literal truth, a platitude so steeped in emotion it tugs on the heartstrings of human nature, something that just about every sane person will agree on. But what makes the use of a literal truth so seductive is the way it is used to hide a substantive untruth. A bit of intellectual rigour lifts the cloak on these dishonest word games. Just a few quick examples before we move to something far more serious.
Last Thursday evening I was a panellist on ABC1’s Q&A program. On the left side sat Todd Sampson, a successful advertising executive who appears on The Gruen Transfer, also on the ABC. When the emissions trading system came up for discussion, he said that “we care” about the environment so “we want to lead” the way in Copenhagen. He gave politicians a serve. People wanted them to “do something”, he said.
The audience cheered. Look at how Sampson cleverly uses a literal truth to convey a substantive untruth.
The literal truth that “we care” about the environment is used like a bait. If you accept that bait, then maybe you will swallow the rest of what he says, hook, line and sinker. It is true that people care about the environment. |
