“Back Talk remarks Because everyone pretty much accepts the idea that Osama bin Laden is hiding in Pakistan, it might sound sensible to send more troops in that general direction if you don’t think about it too hard. But it isn’t sensible because no matter how many troops we send to Afghanistan, they are not …
Cooking the data
Steve’s Climate Audit has found yet another entertaining example of carelessness or dishonesty by the Anthropogenic Global Warming holy Gaia rollers, as he does ever week or so. I think the underlying mechanism of all these many errors is that the holy Gaia rollers massage the data one way, then they massage it another way, …
Non scientific reasons to doubt Anthropogenic Global Warming
There have been a lot of prophecies of doom before. As before, the prophets of doom are making money and gaining power from their prophecies Some of the data supposedly demonstrating global warming turned out to be fraudulent. The major scientific global warming authorities, notably the IPCC seem curiously relaxed about employing some fraudulent data, …
Escalating prophecies of doom
When prophecies of doom are not working out, the first reaction is to escalate them: Ted Turner tells us: We will be eight degrees hotter in thirty or forty years, and basically none of the crops will grow, most people will have died, and the rest of use will be cannibals, civilization will have broken …
Commodity derivatives: the new currencies
E-gold, which I thought would save the world, turned out to be something of a bust, with essentially zero use in real internet commerce, but “unenumerated reports†that we are seeing the financial markets going into commodity based fractional reserve monies in a big way, many trillions of dollars.  Still, you cannot pay for your …
I was wrong 1
I was wrong about Muslim reaction to the video “Fitnaâ€. I said that Muslim’s were not reacting, just their pals in the west. This is not the case. Muslims are reacting, and, as usual, threatening murder and terror, though their western pals reacted first.
More pussy for Muslims: It’s the law!
The state of Texas has just engaged in the mass abduction of wives and children from Christian polygamists because of the alleged bad conduct of one Christian polygamist – though strangely they seem unable to find the person who alleged this bad conduct. Evidently, although Muslim polygamy is multicultural, Christian polygamy is not.
Who is funding terror?
We are funding terror. Twelve days ago, the US gave one hundred and fifty million dollars to the Palestinian Authority, much of which will be used to buy arms to murder Jews, much of which will be used to reward terrorists for their holy deeds. Why pay off the Palestinians when there are many deserving …
Housing price bottom
When I say prices look like they have bottomed, I don’t mean that the prices sellers are asking may have bottomed. Asking prices are, for the most part, still way too high. But if we look at sales that are actually being made, both for houses, and for land with secure development approval, the prices …
Fitna the movie
Most servers have been intimidated into silence, but the gutsy “Pirate Bay†is still serving “Fitnaâ€, in bittorrent form, the only major commercial service still standing. But the interesting thing is who is doing the intimidating. At first, it was a western, politically correct, demand for pre-emptive surrender.. Fitna shows a verse from the Koran …
