American Embassy Warning

Post by **FrazeeDK** » December 20, 2014, 8:02 pm

Yes, another one.. God knows folks.. don't leave your house, don't go anywhere cause these bloody lone wolves are out there!!!!!!!! Give me a break please... So one wacko in Australia, yup that's one guy out of what 25 million Aussies does this act, and the U.S. State Department sends a warning to all U.S. citizens in the world????

U.S. Embassy Bangkok, Thailand

Security Message

Saturday, December 20, 2014

The lone wolf attack in Sydney, Australia on December 15, 2014, resulting in the deaths of two hostages, is a reminder that U.S. citizens should be extra cautious, maintain a very high level of vigilance, and take appropriate steps to enhance their personal security. This Travel Alert expires on March 19, 2015.

An analysis of past attacks and threat reporting strongly suggests a focus by terrorists not only on the targeting of U.S. government facilities but also on hotels, shopping areas, places of worship, and schools, among other targets, during or coinciding with this holiday period. U.S. citizens abroad should be mindful that terrorist groups and those inspired by them can pose unpredictable threats in public venues. U.S. citizens should remain alert to local conditions and for signs of danger.

Yes, one whacko in Australia and a whacko warning from the US State Department. Why the hell does the State Department do this? Do too many Americans get off on fear and conflict? A beat up by parts of the American media? Perhaps it's a litigation fearful State Department pushing out these warnings?

Fear seems to sell and too many public figures use it to promote their careers. It probably taps into how we're hard wired.

Got to keep the huge military industrial complex oiled and fear mongering seems to be the current method.

It's reported that South Beach, Miami stinks of shxt:

This is a glimpse of what climate change is going to do. I wouldn't want to be living in South Beach. First world people will also feel climate change's impact.

The link at the end mentions sports cars driving through salt water as drivers mistake the sea water for fresh water. It also mentions the risk that homes in the worst affected areas might become uninsurable soon and their owners unable to sell their homes. There's going to need to be a hell of a lot of terrorism to come close to the pending disaster of climate change.

I'm sure we will see many more deaths due to terrorist's but we will never see a death caused directly by climate change.

What a silly comment. Of course we will see and have already seen deaths caused by climate change. Remove your head from the sand.

Post by **fdimike** » December 21, 2014, 9:42 am

Have to agree with Rufus. I expect we'll see a lot more deaths in the coming years due to climate change unless the countries of the world unite (yeah right) to make significant changes in the way they do business.

Climate change is a natural phenomenon nothing at all do do with man, did you not go to school? one small volcanic eruption causes as much gas as man has created since day 1.

So I guess all those real scientists out there who have studied the situation for years just don't have a clue. Strange though that they continue to warn us of the consequences of continuing down the same path.

I have degrees in Computer Science and Electrical Engineering... I AM NOT A CLIMATE SCIENTIST. Repeat after me everybody "I AM NOT A CLIMATE SCIENTIST". May I ask, how many peer-reviewed climate science papers have you published then? I might not be the sharpest kid on the block but I try to admit to my own limitations... I will not pretend I am a brain surgeon, therefore I will not attempt brain surgery.. etc etc Now when it comes to politics, economics, and other social sciences that is another subject entirely. $\:D/$

Maybe ISIS isn't too bad. Sometimes they help us out. I just read today that they executed 100 of their foreign fighters for trying to quit and go home.

I don't think they do have a clue. It appears that they are split nearly 50/50. If it were so obvious, a large majority would agree. They still have many different theories as to what caused the last ice age. We do know that there is a climate change going on but disagree as to what is causing it.

Apparently NASA has a clue or two

Seems to be questionable numbers there.......50/50. If those numbers came from Udon Echo, I'd understand.

Oh Buddha the Zero Sanuk (i.e. ronan01) flat earth society has arrived. The biggest dimwit on udonmap. The bloke who knows better than 97% plus of climate scientists and economists. The anti-knowledge and anti-education advocate. The jihadi john of farang rational discussion. The beheader of science ...

Humans would be living in spaceships around Mars and the Earth would be similar to Venus and Zero Sanuk's ancestors would still be carrying on the family tradition and denying any global warming despite life on Earth being extinguished centuries ago ...

It is unhinged to conflate climate change and terrorism Dimwit.

Figures don't lie but liars figure. As far as global warming, I can see the changes and weather patterns are changing. The question is whether the earth is going through a cycle or if man is causing the change. Is man responsible for earthquakes? Again figures don't lie but liars figure. How about volcano eruptions? You can come up with any kind of figures that you are looking for. I think that the earth is going through a cycle. The facts are that no one knows for sure what is causing climate change. I do think that climate change is occurring but I don't believe that man is responsible.

Post by **GT93** » December 23, 2014, 7:04 am

Well glalt the scientists who study climate science conclude humans are causing changes.

Glad we agree Zero Sanuk that terrorism is an insignificant problem compared to what's arriving and coming with climate change.

One volcano eruption and that causes more gas contamination than man has ever created from day 1, mans input is so insignificant.
