After the Iranian Elections, folks rioted and called the elections a sham, a facade, and the government folks running them corrupt. The people threw stones, bottles, and lit things on fire. The Iranian Government responded with police on motorcycles with batons, swinging at protestors as they rode by. The next day as the group protests raged on, police or military guard opened fire on them, actually shooting at the crowd, and unfortunately killing people.

If I had not witnessed those scenes with my own eyes, I would have not believed it were possible in this day and age. It reminded me of the Attila the Hun raiders on horses with swords raiding villages, then raping and pillaging. It was a very pathetic spectacle, especially for a nation that prides itself on being the once great Persian Empire. One has to ask if Iran has learned anything about common decency, democracy, or what the present period is all about?

The Iranian Government tried to play down the uprising in the World Media, calling it incidentally, but the pictures show otherwise, 10s of 1,000s of people in the streets protesting is not a little event. And for everyone there, there are 20 or more people who are also very angry, but too timid or afraid to speak out for fear of retribution from a government they obviously no longer trust.

Currently, Iran's economy is in shambles, their leader, who was supposedly re-elected although that seems to be slightly in dispute right now is taking a very hard line on the world stage right now. This can only mean one thing; more of the same problems, and an escalation of dangers from proxy terrorists fulfilling the wishes of their leadership. Please think on this.

Iran now has over 26,000 known centrifuge units enriching Uranium to weapons grade in underground facilities and labs. Why is this a problem, many nations have nuclear weapons capabilities? Well, because Iran sponsors international terrorist groups like Hezbollah, to the tune of about 100 million dollars per year, although that figure is slightly down right now due to the economic collapse of Iran.

Still, a nuclear weaponized nation that buys late generation military hardware from China and Russia, while sponsoring international terrorists to fight their battles by proxy merely to serve their political will is a huge problem. Everyone knows what Iran is doing and they are constantly bragging about it, and telling the IAEA they cannot inspect their advanced nuclear weapons facilities.

The International Atomic Energy Agency has issued a statement telling the world that; "The Iran's failure to comply with the IAEA and UN inspections is unfortunate and disappointing." Come again, what the heck, is that statement suppose to mean; "Unfortunate and Disappointing?"

No, it's cataclysmic and leading the World into WWIII where 100s of millions of humans could perish, and the sands of the Middle East become glass. It is unfortunate and disappointing to underestimate the severity and reality of this situation.

The Bush Administration has also said that this is unfortunate and disappointing, which is great but we are well beyond the point where action is prudent to prevent WWIII. Additionally, failure to pre-empt will result in nuclear weapons in the hands of terrorists.

If we do nothing we do so at the expense of millions of innocent civilians. Still, Iran is counting on the ability to use the Obama Administration to allow them to pursue their long-term objectives, which the President of Iran has made perfectly clear; "Blowing Israel off the map!" Please consider all this.

There is no evidence that levels of C02 affect the warming of the planet, the fact is that it changes constantly throughout the planets lifecycle. But humoring the gullable and the sheep out there that believe what ever the government tells them, the following will explain the major contributors of C02.

The oceans are the greatest contributor, due to the trillions of algae/plankton that produce 15 times of what all the human produce. Next is the decaying matter and dead animals that produce almost the same as the oceans. So thats 30 times more than what we produce.

The next is trees, many believe that trees suck up C02 and prodcue oxygen for life, but this is WRONG, growing trees do do this but mature trees actually stop this and produce more C02 than oxygen. Maybe we should cut down all mature trees to save the planet.

Next animals which includes us humans just releasing greenhouse gases produce way more than all the factories cars etc.

Also volcanoes, it is estimated that 1 eruption from a large volcane releases what we produce in 6 months. Of course there are other things that produce C02. So humans maybe produce about a hundreth of the planets C02 do you still think by turning your TV to standby or using energy saving lightbulbs makes any difference?

The fact is the theory of Global warming due to C02 outputs from humans is just a political policy that is used to TAX people, they employ their own scientists to give credit to there arguments, and select the only ones that agree with them to show to the public.

When will the world stop believing exactly what is told to them, without any evidence and make up their own minds. The government lies that is fact!

Why is everyone so worried about global warming when in reality they should be worried about global cooling in the next coming Ice Age? There is a book out called; Not by Fire, But By Ice. In this book it explains why global warming or climate change is not really an issue at all, instead we should get our civilizations prepared for a coming Ice Age in about 150 to 400 years.

In fact many anthropologists believe that the heat of the atmosphere has given mankind and the human species time to regroup and evolve. Hot Begets Not, Hotter Climates go until the pendulum swings and an ice age cometh; That is The Truth about Global Warming.

Global warming assumes that it is caused by mankind and the climate scientist that believe in global warming say that it is caused by mankind's CO2 emissions from our factories, power plants and transportation. While this theory sounds somewhat plausible and yes climate change in the atmosphere might be affected some what by human emissions there are far greater causes that might he get the climate besides the head lice or locusts (mankind) that is dwelling on the surface.

If these climate scientists, politicians and everyone were reality based in their thinking then they would come up with solutions that we have discussed in our online think tank.

For instance; why not plant six to 8 billion trees; developed the clean coal technology innovations that have already been discovered for our power plants; put coatings on the roads in concrete and tops of buildings in our large cities to prevent urban heat; collect the CO2 in the atmosphere that is over large cities and use it for another purpose?

You see there are many solutions to the problem of climate change that if mankind were really serious and wanted to do something about it they could. But rather the global warming debate is much to do about politics and power control.

Global warming is not real. I certainly hope this article is of interest and that is has propelled thought. The goal is simple; to help you in your quest to be the best in 2007. I thank you for reading my many articles on diverse subjects, which interest you.
