Syria and Iraq remain entrenched in a civil war that has seen the Islamic State — ISIS — take over huge swaths of territory in both countries. Russia continues their takeover of Eastern Europe after annexing the Crimean Peninsula and marching on Eastern Ukraine. Iran and Saudi Arabia are in the midst of a Shiite-Sunni proxy war in Yemen. Boko Harem and Al-Shebab continue to terrorize non-Muslims across Africa.
Women across the Muslim world are systematically oppressed — denied the right to drive, vote, or even leave the home without a male chaperone. Pakistan is facing violent protests where men are fighting for the right to stone their wives and daughters after a recent law banned it. Drug cartels across Mexico and Latin America terrorize civilians in ways that rival only ISIS in brutality.
There is no shortage of crises in the world, yet liberals are worried about the weather. This was on display yet again last Friday, when Leonardo DiCaprio spoke to the United Nations on climate change. To watch why DiCaprio called the ineffective international organization “the last best hope of Earth,” continue on the next page:
How would you get your big A$$ jet off the ground and all the gas guzzling cars trucks ect!!! OH you mean we the peasants can’t use that nasty fossil fuels only the elite like yourself!! Go find another country that will buy your c**p!! We don’t want it!!!
I’m not a scientist, but I will play one in my next movie
Fossil fuels, aka petroleum, are used to create many things that are required by modern civilization like plastics and rubbers. I have no problem with utilizing clean energy where ever possible, but we are no where near being able to stop using, and may never be able to stop using petroleum. Leonard will never be able to even board his “solar powered” 747 with out the use of petroleum (if one existed). A Prius could not be built without Petroleum, nor a windmill or a solar panel.
Nope, his hot air ballon couldn’t work with out plastics created by fossil fuels.
Actors should stick with acting. After all, acting is lying.
Who the hell are you mr scientist.
Dicaprio is an idiot. He would have to get rid of all his luxurious toys then. U n is no better at all either
Time to end UN but keep NATO and. I hope for the sake of American citizens we still have Static Air Command..somewhere underground. .
