UN Chief’s warning – the end of the world is nigh!

EXCERPT:

UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has such a low profile on the world stage that he’s referred to as “the invisible man”. Perhaps in an effort to boost his press coverage he’s given a speech in Incheon, South Korea (hat tip: Drudge), that can only be described as a bizarre PR stunt, with the sort of cataclysmic environmental statements doled out in scientifically dodgy disaster movies like The Day After Tomorrow or the forthcoming 2012.

Another doomsday pap from a moron bigshot.

Yawn.... zzzzzz.
It is our attitude toward free thought and free expression that will determine our fate. There must be no limit on the range of temperate discussion, no limits on thought. No subject must be taboo. No censor must preside at our assemblies.

–William O. Douglas, U.S. Supreme Court Justice, 1952

How long before Ban Ki-moon et al have to wear sandwitch boards.....
The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed
(and hence clamorous to be led to safety)
by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.
H. L. Mencken.

The hobgoblins have to be imaginary so that
"they" can offer their solutions, not THE solutions.

Re: UN Chief’s warning – the end of the world is nigh!
it is a real shame that the head of the UN is behaving like a hand puppet (and we all know how hand puppets are controlled); he is just spouting off the same doom and gloom nonsense the greenies are saying, can't the greenies ever be original ??
