By Des Moore, published 7/2/2011

Professor Garnaut's latest update of his Review of Climate Change exaggerates the problems of global warming more than his original.

I'm no great fan of the IPA, but I'm still waiting for a comment that actually addresses the substance of this article. Something better than Ho Hum's 'I know you are, but what am I?', odd ramblings about Iraq and some ad-hoc anti-GMO nonsense thrown into the conspiratorial salad mix.

The role and actions of the right-wing stink tanks (Des's ideological fellow travelers) in the invasion and the deliberate trashing and grand theft of the infrastructure Iraq is all on the public record.Indeed they had planned it all well before Sept 11 - again such intentions are all on the public record.

Bush was just the one-dimensional cardboard puppet/stooge of the neo-psychotics and their project to dismantle and then reassemble the politics and culture of the Islamic countries in the Middle-East.

Naomi Klein writes about this in her book The Shock Doctrine. Part 6, chapters 16-18. This section has 136 fact checked foot-notes, many of which are public statements by the neo-psychotics re their intentions and actions.
The section is titled Iraq: Full Circle. The chapters are titled:
16. Erasing Iraq:In Search of a "Model" for the Middle East
17. Ideological Blowback: A Very Capitalist Disaster
18. Full Circle: From Blank State to Scorched Earth

Just Google Naomi Klein Trashing Iraq and see for your self.

And yes, as far as I know GM so called foods will inevitably turn out to be a disaster. Somewhere down the line there WILL be all sorts of unintended consequences. New diseases and possibly agricultural and horticultural melt-downs.
None of which could ever be put back in the genies bottle.

A friend of mind who is a horticulturist told me several years ago that Roundup will sooner or later create all sorts of unintended consequences. The essay I pointed too strongly suggests, even proves, that this is indeed the case. Remember that Roundup has always been promoted as completely safe and non-toxic to human beings.

'A friend of mind' told you? A most telling slip, Ho Hum.

I hate to think what your lampshade's telling you.
