Iran fired off 30 missiles last night in the general
direction of US facilities in Iraq. 4
hit something with little or no damage.
The blame America first Iranian collaborators in the US government –
Grand Nan from San Fran Peloser – were all but celebrating the Iranian response
while the missiles were still flying. They feigned concern for US service
members while they attacked their Commander in Chief.
They truly are despicable loathsome characters.
Ted Cruz put a fine point on it last night when he
said that the US paid for the missiles that the Iranians fired off last night thanks
to Lil Barry the empty suit Obama’s cash payment to the Iranian mullahs.
PDJT should use Iran’s feeble attack last night as
cover to secretly hit their enrichment sites.
He might hit some very public site like a refinery while secretly using
deep penetrating bombs to the centrifuges spinning 24/7 to enrich uranium.
The MSM will be dissected by pictures of a burning refinery
while ignoring the real story of a rumpled bit of ground somewhere in the
desert.
With regard to our presence in in Iraq, I don’t know
what the mission is there any more. The
Iraqi government is all but an Iranian proxy at this point. What are the troops doing there? Is it essential to US national
interests?
I know what happened the last time we vacated Iraq –
ISIS. Are we going to be there
forever? Can we establish an autonomous
Kurdish area in the north and use them as a counter weight to resist a re-emergence
of ISIS? Can we contract our military presence
out to a firm like Blackwater? Can we
maintain a rapid response team afloat rather than boots on the ground?
The Middle East has been a disaster all of my
life. I doubt it’s going to get any
better during Lex jr.’s lifetime. It’s time to turn the model on its head and do
something completely different.
Today’s JG rant
In his Jan 7, 2020 letter “Nuclear energy industry littered
by false promises” Tim Tiernon calls Katie Tubb “disingenuous” for promoting a
new generation of nuclear power. After
doing so, amazingly, Tiernon insists the Green New Deal is not a fantasy.
Wow! In
Tiernon’s bizarro world advocating for proven cost effective nuclear power is disingenuous
while banning air flight, requiring the remodeling every building in the
country to meet green standards, free economic support for people who refuse to
work, “decarbonizing” industrial and agriculture industries (whatever that
means), banning meat products etc. at the cost of tens of trillions of dollars
is not a pretend solution to the imaginary problem of climate change. Tolkien’s fantasies are not nearly as vivid
as Tiernon’s.
Who’s disingenuous?
How is Tiernon getting around these days? Walking?
Riding a bike? The bus? If not,
he’s a disingenuous hypocrite. How is he
heating his living quarters? Solar? Wind?
Geo thermal? If not, he’s a
disingenuous hypocrite.
Claiming the world is running out of uranium is disingenuous. The NEA predicts a 230 year supply of uranium
at current usage levels from known resources and expects technology will
improve extraction methods while lessening the demand.
Tiernon and other green weenies need to remember that
America is not a planet. We could
suspend all use of carbon based fuels today and it would not make any
measurable long-term difference in their own climate change hoax models.

Nuclear energy
industry littered by false promises
The Dec. 22 article by
Katie Tubb promoting a new generation of nuclear reactors is disingenuous.
Nuclear energy has
been insane from inception. It is more insane when we have cleaner energy
available.
The Green New Deal is
not a fantasy. A stable, sustainable future without immediate climate action n
is a fantasy. The only green in nuclear power is money.
It is humorous to hear
a nuclear power advocate like Tubb complain about “big-government handouts” for
cost-efficient, clean and renewable energy. Government-subsidized nuclear power
has not lived up to industry promises. The nuclear fuel cycle is a disaster
that is hazardous beyond our comprehension – from mining and processing to
waste.
Nuclear power is a
prime example of private profit and public liability. We will not know the real
cost of nuclear power until we clean up the mess it has created.
Nuclear power is not
the solution to our climate crisis for two other important reasons.
The best uranium
deposits have already been mined; reactors would run out of fuel in a few
decades. More importantly, we will be long past the tipping point for the
warming of our planet by the time new nuclear reactors could be built.
There is no perfect
energy source, but wind and solar have yet to reach their potential.
There are exciting
technological advances like perovskite solar cells and creative harvesting,
storing and sharing of renewable energy.
The decisions we make
in the coming decade may determine the future of life on Earth.
Tim Tiernon
