We are betrayed
and all we held to be inviolable is broken, corrupted, and defiled! And it has
been defiled by the very jokers we inanely put in charge of protecting what we
believed to be inviolable!
How do I know
this? There is an idea in the New Testament that the truth will pierce through
all the BS thrown our way which attempts to disguise the actual motives behind
the actions of men. It reads, in Hebrews 4:12, KJV: “For the word of God is
quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the
dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a
discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.”
Let us look at an
example of how lies are used to disguise the real agenda. For years the powers
that be have promised they will wage war on hydrocarbon fuels without offering
proof that the infrastructure and technology required for their much-touted
so-called green energy project could and indeed should replace hydrocarbons.
This fall is about to provide ample proof of the foolishness and fallaciousness
of pursuing green energy policies. Already we are experiencing enormous
increases in energy prices along with growth in the associated excessive carbon
taxation, food shortages, sky high inflation, currency devaluation, further
marginalizing of the dispossessed, and all this because ignorant know-it-alls
have forced their delusional pursuit of their unworkable policies on us. Worse
these policies have failed to reduce carbon emissions in the West while giving
the East and the developing world a free pass to pollute.
These policies
aren't grounded in democratic consent. They're unscientifically devoid of real
engineering practicality for them to be implemented at present, rather they are
policies designed to force the misanthropic elites' radical ideology on us. An
ideology which more closely resembles a frenzied Postmodern religion rather
than a valid way to legislate energy policies! All we need do at present is to
look to Europe and Scandinavia to see the results of the disaster created by
the great and the good whose constant meddling has resulted in the war in the
Ukraine.
From Nation World
News desk dates Sept 9th, 2022 in an article entitled;
“European energy
policy failure”
“Rising energy
prices are a disaster for the European economy and its politicians… but, given
the region’s irresponsible energy policies, the economic damage it causes
should come as no surprise.
European
politicians will have to rethink their approach. The problems plaguing Europe
are not because of EU policies but because of their absence. The EU needs a
stronger, integrated and more coherent common energy strategy.
Over the years
the EU’s energy policy has faced unforeseen problems, mostly caused by Russia.
For example, Russia allowed gas delivery to Europe in the cold of January 2006,
but since the disruption lasted only four days, Europe did not react to its
long-term effects.
Then, in January
2009, Russia suspended gas delivery through Ukraine as punishment and cut off
supplies to 18 European countries for two weeks. This time the EU reacted – at
least slightly – and adopted a third joint energy package of gas and
electricity. The package promoted diversification and commercialization of the
energy sector, and sought to avoid vertical integration. This had a real impact
as gas and electricity producers could no longer own gas pipelines and
transmission networks. Gazprom had to sell its gas pipelines in the Baltic
states and Lithuania and Poland were encouraged to set up liquefied natural gas
(LNG) terminals.
But Germany was
too big and pointless to worry about those changes., went in the opposite
direction and made fundamental mistakes. Just before he lost the election in
2005, German Chancellor Gerhard Schröder approved the Nord Stream 1 gas
pipeline between Russia and Germany across the Baltic Sea. Even after Russia’s
annexation of Crimea in 2014, he continued to promote Nord Stream 2 along with
other eminent Germans, which made Germany even more dependent on Russian gas.
Not only would it have imported all the gas it needed from Russia, but it would
have become one of the main transit countries.
Chancellor Angela
Merkel deepened the problem in 2011 when she decided to shut down German
nuclear power plants. -which were safe and working well- after the tsunami hit
Japan’s Fukushima nuclear plant. That decision led Germany to become highly
dependent on Russian gas until the Kremlin stopped delivering gas to Europe
this year, with its imports accounting for about a third of Russian gas sales
to Europe. To make matters worse, German companies sold most of their gas
storage facilities to Gazpromo. Which emptied them in a staggering price hike
move last year.
Thus, while most
other European countries had long been concerned about their excessive
dependence on Russian gas, Schröder and Merkel ignored their country’s energy
security and made Germany completely dependent on it. And while other European
countries built new LNG terminals (allowing them to import gas from the United
States and elsewhere), Germany doubled down on its purchases from Russia. Now
the whole of Europe is the victim of their irresponsibility. Sky-high gas and
electricity prices in Europe largely reflect German energy policy since 2005.”
You will note
that the writer of this article has suggested that more interference from the
EU is the solution to problems created by interference from the EU, and in
particular its most dominant player Germany! Which leads me to ask one simple
question, why are these clowns driven by mere opinions and wishful thinking
rather than by principles?
There's a marked
difference between opinions and principles. Pineapple doesn't belong on a pizza
is an opinion. Standing on principle means that you're willing to oppose lies
and false narratives to defend the truth, no matter what the cost. If it hasn't
cost you dearly to stand by your convictions even in the face of all others
marching in lockstep in the diametric opposite direction then you are not a
principled person. You're just yet another person with opinions that hold no
weight.
But I can go one
step further. I've known those who won't even express an opinion for fear that
doing so will lead to conflict. Often the publicly opinionless are especially
well liked because they are social nothing burgers. They offend no one since
publicly they have no stance or opinion. Metaphorically they're akin to two
stale buns with no meat, cheese, and condiments in between to make the nothing
burger palatable. But here's what amazes me most, behind closed doors these
nothing burgers are often the most opinionated and least principled!
I wish to offer
my listeners and readers a principled position on the environment. One which
has helped to define Environmental Science since it was first published. That
is Barry Commoner’s Four Laws of Ecology which is one of Commoner's lasting
legacies. He wrote these four laws of ecology in The Closing Circle published in
1971. The four laws are:
i): Everything Is
Connected to Everything Else. There is one ecosphere for all living organisms
and what affects one, affects all.
ii): Everything
Must Go Somewhere. There is no "waste" in nature and there is no
"away" to which things can be thrown.
iii): Nature
Knows Best. Humankind has fashioned technology to improve upon nature, but such
change in a natural system is, says Commoner, "likely to be detrimental to
that system."
iv): There Is No
Such Thing as a Free Lunch. Exploitation of nature will inevitably involve the
conversion of resources from useful to useless forms.
This last
principle is based upon the laws of conservation of matter and energy. Green
energy is nothing other than a massive attempt to get a free lunch. It is the
unscientifically fanatical thinking of the Church of St. Greta of Thunberg. Her
dogma and doctrine are a quasi-religious fanatical delusion replete with righteous
outrage, claims of moral superiority, ecstatic outbursts of fire, brimstone,
hellfire, and end of the world apocalyptic visions! And that is my opinion! And
as for the word of truth discerning the thoughts and intentions of our
governing class, follow the money. Whose pockets were being lines by this faux
pursuit of green energy while giving corrupt communist tyrannies like China a
free pass to pollute even as it sold us the very technology to “go green”? If
that technology actually worked to “go green”, then why are the Chinese Communists
not using it instead of burning more and more coal? And that is not an opinion,
that is a discernible statement of demonstrable fact which clearly indicates
that the intent of their hearts is certainly not to save the planet!
