Bin Laden Weighs in to Prop Up Flagging “Climate” Issue
by Christopher C. HornerSo the Washington Post reports that bin Laden is still furious about the U.S. causing global warming.
Al Jazeera, which originally broke the communiqué story, did so with a headline drawn from the Tiger Beat school of style: “Obama deplores climate change”. AJ writes, “In an audio tape obtained by Al Jazeera, bin Laden criticised George Bush, the former US president, for rejecting the Kyoto pact and condemned global corporations.”
Oh, dear. We’re still on that kick again, one I think even the Post has dropped.
In 2002 Obama similarly parroted the Western media rant fashionable at the time that we “refuse[d] to sign the Kyoto agreement “, four years after Clinton signed it. Even the New York Times issued a correction, in November 2006.
Indeed the Post notes that “Bin Laden has mentioned climate change and global warning in past messages, but the latest tape was his first dedicated to the topic.” OK. So he’s losing it. At least he didn’t invoke Haiti.
But then the Post loses me, with “The speech, which included almost no religious rhetoric, could be an attempt by the terror leader to give his message an appeal beyond Islamic militants.” I can think of at least two things wrong with this analysis, and will just address the second one, that bin Laden apparently hasn’t seen the latest polls indicating there may be better wagon to which one ought hitch his star.
So, in sum, bin Laden has found common ground with Obama’s State of the Union speech, in part, accepting what Obama claimed is “the overwhelming scientific evidence on climate change” — a material slip-up betraying ignorance, incidentally; the artful advocate sticks with “consensus, which is about prophesying, not “evidence” which is about observations and which is easily checked.
Bin Laden is just not so sold on the “green jobs” rhetoric. As the Post writes, bin Laden warned of the dangers of climate change and says that the way to stop it is to bring the wheels of the American economy’ to a halt.”
Hey, even busted clocks get the odd point right. The big problem I return to is that bin Laden and the fundamentalists among the green movement share more than just global warming fervor and rhetoric. They seem to share an objective.

Does anybody really care what this monster has to say??? I think he has spent too much time in the caves…he needs to come out once in a while, to see what's really going on in the world!
Nice rant from a guy who's been dead at least 8 years.
I think he is dead anyway….the messages are made using someone else not the Terrorist in Chief.
Well golly…a terrorist who is against the US wants "Cap and Trade" that will destroy the US economy….
Go figure…
So Osama Bin Laden, Al Gore, Barock Huesaine Obama and Democrats can agree. The Global Warming / Cap and Trade issue is best way to kill off what is left of the United States Economy. Well, Birds of a Feather………
Where would Bin Laden fall in the American Political Spectrum?
I have long felt something along those lines. That this talks about Bush makes one wonder if it isn't just digitally put together words from past recordings. Most, if not all, tapes from binny could have ben productions like this.
Let's see a picture with a current newspaper or some other proof of him living today…..
Why would anyone be surprised that OSAMA BIN LADEN agrees with ALWHORE? After all, they both share similiar IDEOLOGIES. The only difference is one USES the KORAN TO JUSTIFY HATRED and the other one uses the mythical EARTH GODDESS GAIA to justify his COMMUNIST BELEIFS. An islamic supremacist and a communist-NO REAL DIFFERENCE. BOTH SICK PERVERTED TWISTED EVILS.
Get rid of AG holden,and replace him with Osama.
Ahhh….So Ellie Light is really Osama Bin Laden…Got it…?
What an idiot! Why don't our leaders say it like it is, these terrorists are the scourge of Islam!
Just think, when they raise that right hand, they probably just wiped their you-know-what with it.
It sounds like a perfect quid pro quo ……The left keeps the terrorists supplied and informed, and Bin Laden reciprocates by scolding the West for causing global warming! The mere fact that this idiot is saying anything about global warming at all is hilarious…
I think he should issue a fatwa against the weather….and it seems that he has because most of those useless morons seem to be shooting a clouds all the time anyway…
If it wasn't so patently ridiculous, it would be funny…..but our global warming alarmists and other architects of socialism are high fiving each other right now, beaming at the prospect of having all of their hard won support for Islamic Terrorism finally bearing some fruit.
right there with obama
Maybe the lefty senate can call cap and trade the Gore-Bin Laden bill
As soon as we have cap and trade, we will send them checks to plant fescue in the Sahara. "carbon capture"
Osama Bin Who?
If that irrelevant raghead isn't dead, he has been shacked up in a chalet in Switzerland, or a penthouse apartment in Paris since September TENTH, 2001.
Our illustrious leaders needed a boogeyman, a tool, to use to keep the military industrial complex alive after the Soviet Union collapsed and the Red Russian Boogeyman died. He sure was good for the propaganda in loosing American Rights through the Patriot Act, and the Department of Homeland In-security, but as far as him carrying any weight, or any water for Algore and the Church of Global Warming, he sure hasn't sold me……….
Osama sounds like a Democratic Progressive/Socialist spokesman, and Obama's policies reflect Osama's goals. The SEC just aunnounced that companies have issued a press released entitled “SEC Issues Interpretive Guidance on Disclosure Related to Business or Legal Developments Regarding Climate Change” that lays out some of the potential impacts of global warming, and what it means for disclosure. The SEC release states " Impact of Legislation and Regulation: When assessing potential disclosure obligations, a company should consider whether the impact of certain existing laws and regulations regarding climate change is material. In certain circumstances, a company should also evaluate the potential impact of pending legislation and regulation related to this topic.
Impact of International Accords: A company should consider, and disclose when material, the risks or effects on its business of international accords and treaties relating to climate change.
Indirect Consequences of Regulation or Business Trends: Legal, technological, political and scientific developments regarding climate change may create new opportunities or risks for companies. For instance, a company may face decreased demand for goods that produce significant greenhouse gas emissions or increased demand for goods that result in lower emissions than competing products. As such, a company should consider, for disclosure purposes, the actual or potential indirect consequences it may face due to climate change related regulatory or business trends.
Physical Impacts of Climate Change: Companies should also evaluate for disclosure purposes the actual and potential material impacts of environmental matters on their business.
Another IED to the economy thanks to Obama, following the advise of Osama.
From Osama to Obama my brother in crime. You know you are on the wrong side of an issue when bin laden endoreses it.
Bin Laden came out of his cave. Saw his shadow – claimed the US was the cause of "global warming" and that there would be 4 more years of terrorism and then dashed back into his cave.
Is his cave heating up? Perhaps it is the heat of the US military that is getting to him. I certainly hope so!
bin laden unwittingly ties together the global warming hoax with radical islamic terrorism. Now that's an image we can all agree with.
Bin Laden and the American progressives are on the SAME SIDE of many issues. Up to one quarter of our "citizens" like him more than they did our last president. Let that sink in for a moment.
We are not just fighting Osama and his buddies but we are fighting millions of traitorous idiots that live among us. To win, we not only need to stop a bunch of Islamic extremists, but a bunch of idiot progressives as well.
If we fail in stamping out this brand of radical progressivism, the country is really, truly over for good. THOSE WHO GIVE AID AND COMPFORT TO OUR ENIMIES SHOULD BE PUNISHED. Do not tolerate traitors!
What? bin ladan trying to make himself relevent, hilarious!!! maybe he's running out of money and wants a slice of gore's pie!!!
"Physical Impacts of Climate Change: Companies should also evaluate for disclosure purposes the actual and potential material impacts of environmental matters on their business."
Great point Kristine.I am eternally grateful I am no longer affiliated with a public company, or have to go through the charade of reporting. It is ridiculous. No, instead of the SEC protecting investors from the next Bernie Maddof, they will be scrutinizing public companies regarding their Carbon Footprint Reporting.
It is all a sham. A house of cards, and it is going to come crashing down around Obama's big ears.
I hear on the newz from the MSM that PETA is protesting Punxatawney Phil and Groundhog Day. Why doesn't PETA run after Osama bin Obama?
and don't forget your tin foil hats to stop the signals being beamed down from secret us satellites!!! (jk Cowboy, good post)
America remember that Obama and bin Laden have one thing big in common besides being raised Islam; they are both out to destroy America economically! You asked gor it and you're getting it!
I guess he needs a clean planet for their armageddon apocalypse to destroy. What was it? A headless horseman, or was that a movie I saw somewhere?
Osama gotta make a buck here or there somehow. Al Snore doesn't even know who his blind partner is!
Secretary of "Climate Change"?
Obama and Osama both want Cap & Trade!?!
I don't believe he's dead. I think if he were dead Al Qaeda would immediately try and get some propaganda mileage by making him a martyr.
Really, after the disasterous "Climategate" e-mails, do the socialist climate change mongers need Obama bi Laden HELPING OUT?
Come on lefties, RENOUNCE the frausd that is "APG Global Warming", admit it's a HOAX designed to enrich a few at the expense of the many and DISMANTLE Cap & Trade WORLD WIDE!
STOP THE LIES "WARMERS"!
He wants to use AGW against the west… a good reason to stop polluting. No sense helping the terrorist out.
Bin laden is playing you. He wants AGW as a propaganda tool and you are playing into his hands.
Have you missed the last 8 years. It's been in all the papers. Terrorists are bad people.
The Left, the Greens and Is-slam all just Death Cults.
I think it would be funny to call it the Inhofe-Bin Laden Climate Bill.
I'm curious why you misquoted the headline as "Obama deplores…"?
Well, then you have better intel than we do because everyone in the intel community believes he is in Pakistan.
Don't be silly. Should we stop bathing because Bin Lade takes daily baths? He is playing you. Don't fall for it.

We have squandered the fortunes of our country, we have bankrupted our national treasury, we send our youth, the best and the brightest, to get blown to hell and gone by IED's manufactured by cave dweeling barbarians. Why? Because of the war on terror? Because we are hunting a ghost? Bullshit!
Our government might convince the fools of that, the simple saps that cringe in fear, and sit at home, worrying about their 401k's, and Global Warming, and Barrack Obamas next epistle from the teleprompter.
But I don't buy it.
If you expect me to believe, that with a satellite in outer space, that they can zoom in on a golf course, and read "Titelist" on a golf ball, when smart bombs can be sent through a window, that they can't find a 6'5" Arab, trailing a kidney dialisys machine hooked to an extension cord, carryin a Kalishnikof rifle, with a 25 million dollar dead or alive price on his head, then I have some real good oceanfront property for sale, in Montana.
What, a martyr for shriveling up in the back of a cave?
BwaaaaaHaaaaHaaaa!
Would that be the same Intel Community that predicted September the Eleventh?
On September the TWELFTH?
Lot's of ugly rage here. You need to step back and realize who is the enemy. It is not a competing American political ideology. If you can't see that then it is you who are part of the national security problem, not progressives.
Every time righty tries to be funny it just sounds confused and awkward. Stick to angry ranting… that is your true calling.
Well, if there was EVER a reason to doubt the validity of AGW, there ya go….
One upside though, it puts the Algoracle, Pachauri and Obumbo in really good company!
You've lost all perspective on national security my friend. Progressives are not the enemy.
Not sure what you are saying here kirk, but you said it with conviction. Way to end with an exclamation point!!!
No, a martyr for attacking the "great satan". In their world, we are the bad guys, not Bin Laden.
These are some good guys and produced intel in August 2001 that Bin Laden was poised to strike. You can't blame them if the political leadership is incompetent.
Don't forget to include Charles Manson in this. He is a first generation hard core tree hugger, now alongside the ranks of Nancy Pelosi, Al Gore, Obama, and now Osama. They are all from the same tribe.
By the way, does Osama have a climate reasearch team backing him up on this, or did Allah tell him?
Don't forget to include Charles Manson in this notable list. He is a first generation hard core tree hugger, now along side the ranks of Nancy Pelosi, Al Gore, Obama, and now Osama. They are all from the same tribe.
By t he way, does Osama have his own independent climate research team backing him up on this, or did Allah tell him?
Sorry mik,
You are the one that is always off on the tangent with the angry rantings.
You are ultimately, and infinitely more qualified than I, though.
You are the ex-government fighter plot, who enjoyed all those government perks, and who now rails against the right, because you feel you are entitled to a bigger slice of the government cheese.
Thanks mikatollah…
meaning was that politics makes strange bedfellows…the Snore needs money to finance his ops and so does osama
meanwhile..obama says to continue with cap and trade.
I don't give a rat's ass about their seveth century world.
That was good!!
Hey looked up the earth goddess Gaia…….Parents were Chaos….ummm figures
From one islamic brother to another: I so agree with you that America needs to be economically destroyed so we can carry out our ultimate mission to rule the world. Praise be to alla and yes my brother barrack hussein muhammad obama, our prayers are "the sweetest sound on this planet" as you once said.
As if this bearded idiot cares about global warming. LOL. His statement was a message to our dear leader to continue his rape and pillaging of this country. He might as well have come out and told obama…hurry up with all this crap because i am tired of waiting for you accomplish your mission as per agreement.
I believe the reason Bin Laden is arguing "global warming" is because he understands that the Copenhagen treaty Obama would love to sign would be a large step toward destroying the United States. Those two men have way too much in common.
This spoof of climate science may be of interest:
http://climaterealists.com/?id=4960
Exactly
Surprised? OBL has always been into Gore!
Obama is doing such a good job that Osama might as well retire!
How come I can't see/hear the video anywhere, just reports of it?
Man, I love life. You just could not make this stuff up. So, now that we all can agree that Bin Laden loves Liberals, he is on board 100% and their agenda. What was Bin Laden's agenda again, OH Yeah destroy America.
They could have had Bin laden at Tora Bora. Suspicious, to say the least.
Send him a link to Watts Up with That, and copy Obameer.The skeptics are now going over the multitude of World Wildlife Foundation and Greanpeace submissions "peer reviewed – of course". Too damn funny were it not so serious in the hoax being perpurtrated. NOW including Bin Laden! Hopefully we skeptics will be able to stem the propaganda drive before our Govt swallows the deadly Cap in Trade pill!

Czar of Climate Change
So, does this principled stand rehabilitate Bin Laden in the eyes of Obama, Gore, and the rest of the Green Nazis?
http://libertyatstake.blogspot.com/
Government cheese! Now that did make me laugh… maybe you are funnier than I thought…. good one.
I think cap and trade is a bad idea. I have no problem with the cap part, but creating a market for pollution credits will be ripe for fraud. We should just let the EPA regulate carbon pollution like we do water or air quality.
I hear ya…
Agreed.
These liberals are all alike, because just like Al Gore, Bin Laden won't allow debate.
Is it true that Obama will meet Osama "anytime, anywhere" to discuss "global warming"?
This is very good evidence that Global Warming is a Real Hoax.

A. He's dead.
B. Who is really sending these out?
C. The real story was the part about the dollar, the climate change was simple distraction, a tag-along story obviously to what , keep up busy?
What was the purpose of the message that related to our currency? Was it a signal? An introduction of global money, getting it out there in the news? Easing it in? Are they pulling a "Heeeere's Johnny!" Usually I do my own reseach, but just in case somebody has a starting point.
You have to laugh at the irony of a mass murderer warning us of the "danger" of the scam known as man-made global warming.
What happened here that this guy all of a sudden crawled out of his hole and is not afraid to speak again? I sure am glad the we are no longer a threat to him anymore. I bet he'll even want to make friends with us soon! See how well it works when you're nice to these people. We just need to quit being so mean! It's not his fault his daddy didn't love him. We just need to give him a big hug and it'll all get better and we can be friends.
Bin Laden's rat hole cave doesn't have any A/C so now he's looking for a scapegoat for its uncomfortable temperature…..no problem, he has an ally in Comrade Obama as both seek the destruction of the United States.
You would think someone in the MSM would be alarmed, or at the very least puzzled, as to why his rhetoric always seems to match liberal talking points. He is indeed trying (vainly, I hope) to unite radical progressives behind him. Why does a mass-murdering terrorist organization fueled by an undying hatred for America, Israel, and Western Civilization feel that it can find common ground with the American left?
that would be a lateral move
It's nice that the failing credibility of the global warming believers is being dragged down a little bit farther by the association of a bloodthirsty terrorist with their cause. But, the truth is that this will only serve to help destroy this dying scientific paradigm. It is already on its way out because, as we can all see, with each passing day comes the discovery of another misstatement, exagerration, or outright lie in the scientific "consensus"' IPCC report.
I'm curious why you misquoted the headline as "Obama deplores…"?
Psst.!
mik,
go bother the folks at the O'keefe thread. They are waiting for your wit and wisdom.
Osama, Obama, Algora. They are all the same when it comes to global warming ( I REFUSE TO USE THE TERM CLIMATE CHANGE- HUMANS CANNOT CAUSE COOLING IF WE ARE CAUSING WARMING). Put up quotes from each of them and I bet the best of the global warming zombies will not be able to tell who said what.
I may have the wisdom, but you have the logic. Let's both go… maybe they are serving BBQ.

Global Green Conspiracy Continues to Unravel: http://bit.ly/aIRY7w
There was a theory about that proposed a few years ago. That the voice patterns we have on him are of a double he used to make his announcements while he was busy doing other things and now the double is making all the tapes.
No real proof, and no corpse to prove he's really dead so it's just a theory.
Rckmom, I personally don't care what he has to say. I'd prefer our guys find him and drop some ordnance on him and really send some "climate change" in his personal direction.
I think Osama's been spending too much time at LGF.
I hear his next rant will include some great anti-Palin and anti-Creationist stuff.
Time to give him his own 1/2 hour on MSNBC.
does anyone really think the american gov wants him dead?
having the big o is good for business wars for profits business t hat is.
the capitalists want americans living in fear of this man.
there is billions to be made off his terrorism.
it is a con that most americans fall for the liberals and the conservs.
the country is more divided now then ever and we have spent trillions on our wars for profits.
and we are fighting two wars with muslims exactly w hat he wanted us to do.
he knew we would over react.
now who is really winning the so called war on terrorism?
both parties are in bed with the industrial military complex even obama the guy that will go down in history as more spineless than carter. but he gives great speeches.
yea reagan economics worked so well.
check and see who really started this massive borrowing.
america is heading straight for third world status. arrogance and self righteousness has a price. decline.
history tells us what happens when capitialism goes unchecked. ie bank failures walls street failure, etc.
you folks just bailed out the banks and wall street over reagan ecomomics and so called free trade.
the liberals are not the only dumbed down in america the conservs are right in there with them.
every nation when it had great wealth allowed that wealth to go to their heads and imperialism took over and kaboom a massive decline of wealth like you see now in your country. massive decline of wealth and only communist china bailing you out. go figure a communist country bailing out those that worship at the altar of capitalism. go figure indeed.
THIS IS GREAT NEWS, OSAMA BIN LADEN, AL GORE, OBAMA CAN TEAM UP TO SELL CAP & TRADE, OUR AG MR HOLDER COULD DROP ALL CHARGES AGAINST OSAMA, THEN OUR THREESOME COULD DO A ROAD TOUR AROUND THE US. THEIR SPEECHES WOULD BE MEMORABLE, I'M SURE THE BILL WOULD PASS. SOON THE MONEY WOULD BE ROLLING IN !!
