@ Silcone Synapse, You said the BBC had this info a month ago, I did not know that.
@ Rizla, the term "Vast right wing conspiracy" was coined by then first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton to describe what was being said about President Clinton. Then after sooo much information came out that the word consiracy could not be used anymore then it became a scandal. So using your terminology, i guess you blinked over that time period and that's scary man.

However, if you consider that the object of having money is to obtain power, then by changing the World from a capitalist society to a communist one, where you have powers and laws to subjugate people and turn them into slaves, then you don't need so many people any more - you don't need money anymore, you just need to be the ones in charge.
You use the term communist incorrectly. What you mean is dictatorship. There is a long history in America of the "reinvention" of left-wing terms to mean things that they are not. Even the "liberal" word is now dirty word, a process begun by that paragon of democracy, Richard Nixon.
Please educate yourself. You have been manipulated.

The global warming science? Are YOU serious?
Look im all about recycling and not littering etc.
But the science behind global warming has been so skewed, so fraudulent and so scandalous that i dont know how ANYONE can take anything these guys have said as fact.
They shut up, railroad, and try and ruin the careers of scientist who say ANYTHING to the contrary of the global warming enthusiasts.
Lets not look at this with eyes wide shut, take the tea instead of the coolaide

What I really meant was oppressive, but chose to say communist because of the similarities of the oppressive state created by Stalin et al, plus the de-emphasis on money and wealth.
I don't like to say Fascist because I really don't think that's where we're going.
I think we're going to an oppressive, dictatorship like state where money will be irrelevant but power will be everything.
We'll all be like the drone ants doing all of the work for none of the benefits, just a meagre, miserable existence.
Unusually warm weather has seen mushrooms growing in forests near Moscow, a Russian meteorological website said on Friday. "North Atlantic cyclones continue to send warm and humid air to the European part of Russia," the Meteonovosti website reported. Temperatures in Moscow are currently 5-6 degrees Celsius (41-42.8 degrees Fahrenheit), with 6-8 degrees Celsius reported in the Moscow Region. This is some 9 degrees Celsius above the norm for this time of year. Last year saw a temperature record for December, when the mercury in Moscow soared to 9.4 degrees Celsius.

Are you two serious? Is this truly your attitude, that you can foul the environment and waste resources? For the sake of it?
Is this your reason for attacking GW science? So that you can waste and foul?
Are you serious?

Again, you are so blinkered, it is scary.
Yeah, sure, I need to relax a bit. You won't be saying that when you have no water. Doh!

Nice reasoning. You won't be saying that when you can't get water or food. DOH!
JayinAR got it right, the planet will carry on like it did before us. Humanity has this arrogant assumption that we are linked to the planets existence. Just like the 2012 fears of the end of the world. The end of humanity is not the end of the world. Dinosaurs died out for the most part, but the planet kept going! We humans are no different from them, one major catastrophe and BAM no more humans.
There seems to be a flawed reasoning that if you didn't support gw you were against the enviroment. For some that maybe true but others just saw the BS being fed to the masses. Come on AL Gore was the poster child for it and yet it was forgotten how he created the internet and him and his wife Tipper starting the labeling of "offensive" music. Despite his track record gw was gobbled up and people wanted to hear more. It is the guilt mentality. Yes humanity needs to preserve the enviroment What were the solutions offered by the gw proponents? Carbon credits? Wind power? Those nice new light bulbs? The cc would make some people like Al Gore richer, the wind turbines are a risk to the already heavily endangered bat population and the light bulbs have mercury in them[how enviromentally friendly]

Cool, I have been wondering why that was on the menu. Always seemed a little backward to me, one would think tptb would see it as the more slaves the better.
In an interview to be published in Sunday’s New York Times Magazine, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said she thought the landmark Roe v. Wade decision on abortion was predicated on the Supreme Court majoritys desire to diminish “populations that we dont want to have too many of.”
In the 90-minute interview in Ginsburg’s temporary chambers, Ginsburg gave the Times her perspective on Judge Sonia Sotomayor, President Obama’s first high court nomination. She also discussed her views on abortion.
Q: Are you talking about the distances women have to travel because in parts of the country, abortion is essentially unavailable, because there are so few doctors and clinics that do the procedure? And also, the lack of Medicaid for abortions for poor women?
JUSTICE GINSBURG: Yes, the ruling about that surprised me. [Harris v. McRae — in 1980 the court upheld the Hyde Amendment, which forbids the use of Medicaid for abortions.] Frankly I had thought that at the time Roe was decided, there was concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don’t want to have too many of. So that Roe was going to be then set up for Medicaid funding for abortion. Which some people felt would risk coercing women into having abortions when they didn’t really want them. But when the court decided McRae, the case came out the other way. And then I realized that my perception of it had been altogether wrong.
Holdren believed a world government might play a moderate role in the future: setting and enforcing appopriate population levels, taxing and redistributing the worlds wealth, controlling the worlds resources, and operating a standing World Army.

What is the odds of it being fluoride?
Did he have any connections or "friends" to Manhattan Project, in the 1950-60s?
Or perhaps the Kettering Laboratory founded by General Motors who hid their fluoride toxicity research in an University of Cincinnati vault in the basement?
