The US Defense Department has used its latest Quadrennial Defense Review to justify any ‘creative’ solutions for ‘climate change’ the government wants to pour tax dollars into. The report suggests the U.S. military will prepare to deal with “terrorist activity” caused by erratic weather.
Pentagon: Let us spend tax dollars on Obama’s pet climate change projects because: terrorism!
Remember: President Obama declared that climate change science is irrefutable, basically because he said so. If that wasn’t enough to make you smile when he tosses your money into massive projects intended to manipulate the climate, he’s hoping to associate the threat of climate change with more terrorism fear-mongering.
Like the 2006 and 2010 versions, the 2014 Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR) – a report released every four years on US military strategy and the challenges to its global operations – highlights threats, some more predictable than others, that global climate change will present to human civilization.“The impacts of climate change may increase the frequency, scale, and complexity of future missions, including defense support to civil authorities, while at the same time undermining the capacity of our domestic installations to support training activities,” states the 64-page report, published Tuesday.
“Climate change poses another significant challenge for the United States and the world at large. As greenhouse gas emissions increase, sea levels are rising, average global temperatures are increasing, and severe weather patterns are accelerating.”
A warming planet will likely “exacerbate water scarcity and lead to sharp increases in food costs,” the report details, leading to devastated infrastructure and living conditions, especially in poorer regions of the world.
In addition, this fierce “resource competition” will only push the likelihood of additional terror threats, the QDR states.
“The pressures caused by climate change will influence resource competition while placing additional burdens on economies, societies, and governance institutions around the world,” the report continues.
“These effects are threat multipliers that will aggravate stressors abroad such as poverty, environmental degradation, political instability, and social tensions – conditions that can enable terrorist activity and other forms of violence.”
Not only does the report leverage the public’s fear of terrorism to push for military programs to deal with climate change, it also marks a step towards expanding the definition of terrorism to include people who are hungry and destitute due to weather-induced catastrophe.
