Rats In The Ranks?

Craig Isherwood of the Citizens Electoral Council of Australia (?) sent a rant justifying the "Swindle" show.

It revealed a split in the ranks of the skeptics:

"The ABC had told William Kininmonth, the head of the Australian Bureau of Meteorology's National Climate Centre (for twelve years until 1998) and a former Australian delegate to the World Meteorological Organization Commission for Climatology, that he was not required on the expert panel, despite the fact that he said he would be available. Why would the ABC prefer to feature Mont Pelerinite Ray Evans and former punk rock band member, Michael Duffy over Kininmonth?"

Granted Duffy's snarl is pure Johnny Rotten and, as a musician, I wouldn't trust another musician. But why pick on Ray? For being a member of "the Mont Pelerin Society"? It is "an international organization composed of economists, intellectuals, business leaders, and others who favour classical liberalism; the society advocates free market economic policies and the political values of an open society." (Wikipedia)

I thought all skeptics were neoclassical neoliberals, fans of the Hidden Hand? So we have learned something new: people who quote Plato in a scientific debate are likely to be linked in to the American political activist Lyndon LaRouche (Craig is LL's front man in Australia). LL is known to hate Jews and admire Plato's fascist state. The "Plato Question" was asked by "LaRouche Youth Movement member Lucas Duncan". (He also asked an equally obscure and mangled question about "eugenics" and "the Duke of Edinburgh"- echoing a similar reference by another LaRouche plant in the audience. More later...).

Craig's CEC was originally created by the Australian League of Rights, an extreme right-wing and anti-Semitic organisation founded by Eric Butler who could have been shot as a traitor during World War 2 for the following: In December 1939, Butler wrote: "The real enemy is not Hitler and Germany, but the powers which control Britain, and which are working for the complete bolshevisation of the nation." In a 1940 pamphlet he wrote: "A stream of Australian youth is leaving to be smashed to bloody pulp in the second war to 'save democracy', which like the first war, was fomented by Jewish International Finance, will be financed and controlled by the same group and will mean their undisputed world domination." Meanwhile Hitler was gassing 6 million Jews - something Butler and his psychopaths would deny ever happened. In the 1960s the League infiltrated the National Party by using the Citizens Electoral Councils. This was successful in areas such as Gippsland, the Riverina, the Darling Downs, the Yorke Peninsula and the Western Australian wheatbelt. Butler was clearly insane: he claimed that Winston Churchill, Franklin D. Roosevelt and John Curtin were covert communists.

Now LaRouche, he's another peach. He says the Queen is a drug pusher! NBC News broadcast March 4, 1984,"Of course she's pushing drugs...that is in the sense of a responsibility: the head of a gang that is pushing drugs; she knows it is happening and she isn't stopping it" Man-made global warming is a hoax: Larouche says "The Crab Nebula emits cosmic rays which have significant effect on developments in the earth's atmosphere." LaRouche endorsed The Great Global Warming Swindle.

Lyndon Hermyle LaRouche, Jr went so far into Marxism he's come out thinking like Hitler (who was, after all, a National Socialist). He is fascinating. I'd love to meet him.

"Eugenics"and Prince Philip - it seems he and the Queen (when she's not selling drugs) are part of a conspiracy to commit genocide against millions of people not fit to be alive. WFF is the front organisation for Gore and their majesties and others to wipe out humans so "Nature" can rule Earth. (Evidence: Prince Philip once said wants to be reincarnated as a deadly virus to kill off human beings. But we know about the Royals, don't we? His son Charles once said that wanted to be his lover's underpants...)

So lesson: Climate Skeptics come from all sides of the Right and Left, and they have the mental agility to believe anything is possible. Except man-made global warming.

Here we have come full circle. Skeptic Craig being nasty to Skeptic Ray. Why?
