New in PJ Media: Reading the New York Times on Friday was like picking up one of those tabloids in the supermarket checkout line. You know, the ones with articles entitled TAYLOR AND TRAVIS CANOODLE IN THE CARIBBEAN and HOW TO LOSE SIXTY POUNDS WHILE EATING ONLY CHEESECAKE AND ICE CREAM, along with crazy stuff, […]
Iraqi Prime Minister to Solve Nation’s Problems With Solar Panels
I have yet to see a problem that can’t be fixed by putting up solar panels. Hope and change. I have yet to see a problem that can’t be fixed by putting up solar panels. I believe we can all agree that what Iraq, a miserable war-torn hellhole in a permanent state of civil war […]
Germany’s Antifa Interior Minister threatens public for ‘liking’ the wrong social media posts
This move is reminiscent of what’s happening North of the American border. Canada also cracks down on views which are different from Trudeau’s dictates, or more importantly, on any view that threatens the direction in which Trudeau wants to take the country. America is quickly moving in the same direction. Although each country’s circumstances are different, […]
John Kerry warns of 100 million climate refugees
U.S. Climate Envoy John Kerry: “We’re already seeing climate refugees around the world. If you think migration has been a problem in Europe in the Syrian war … wait until you see 100 million people for whom the entire food production capacity has collapsed.” #CERAWeek pic.twitter.com/JII1YOHWuR — The Recount (@therecount) March 9, 2022 The subtext […]

To pretend that this strife arose when “climate change” is supposed to have begun is to demonstrate ignorance […]
Obama: Unity on climate change will be “powerful rebuke” to terrorists
Greasy Islamophobe that I am, I thought the only powerful rebuke to jihad terrorists would be killing them in large numbers. Good thing Obama is here to enlighten me and show that a bunch of politicians jawing over politically correct myths about the weather will actually stop the jihadis in their tracks. Doubtless this climate […]
Robert Spencer, PJM: Obama: Climate Change Causes Jihad
Over at PJ Media I discuss the recent appalling and fact-free statements by Obama: State Department deputy spokesperson Marie Harf was widely ridiculed in February for saying of the Islamic State (ISIS): We cannot win this war by killing them, we cannot kill our way out of this war. We need, in the longer term, […]
Obama: Climate change “an immediate threat to our national security,” caused jihad in Nigeria and Syria
Obama’s claims here are based on the proposition that poverty causes terrorism. Drought led to jihad in Nigeria, and drought, crop failures and high food prices led to jihad in Syria. But if poverty causes terrorism, one wonders why the world isn’t full of Haitian and Angolan terrorists. Also, poverty doesn’t cause terrorism. The Economist […]
