Great Britain - Al Gore Likens Global Warming to Nazi Threat |

Al Gore speaking at World Forum on Enterprise and the Environment in Oxford
In a speech to students at Oxford, the former vice president and Nobel Peace Prize laureate conceded that there is still work to do to convince political leaders that the threat of climate change is as urgent as that from the Nazis.
The Senate is beginning debate on a cap-and-trade bill to curb emissions, predicted to be an even tougher fight than in the House, where Speaker Nancy Pelosi had to twist arms and trade votes to win a narrow victory. Gore seemed to acknowledge the difficulty of converting grassroots passion into political will.
"The only way politicians will act is if awareness raises to a level to make them feel that it's a necessity."
Mindful of his British audience, Gore said the fight to cut carbon dioxide emissions will require a leader with the fortitude of Winston Churchill, who steered Britain through four years of hardship, bombings and economic deprivations to victory against the Nazis.
"Winston Churchill aroused this nation in heroic fashion to save civilization in World War II," he said.
"We have everything we need except political will, but political will is a renewable resource."

Al Gore is the epitome of a liar and brainwasher. Anyone who watches his film (and his film is mandatory viewing in all schools in many countries), comes away believing that there are no scientists who doubt that global warming is caused by man. Not one single credible scientist.
That’s the biggest lie. Anybody who is interested in the truth of global warming science, and is there in fact a “consensus” among scientists?, should read: The Deniers: The World Renowned Scientists Who Stood Up Against Global Warming Hysteria, Political Persecution, and Fraud by Lawrence Solomon.
I could mention a few more sources, but start with that. There is no “scientific consensus" and the global warming doomsayers "science" is on very shaky ground.

As an American Jew I feel hurt by Al Gores remarks. If I said that electing Barack Hussein Obama as president who can give such a great speech like Hitler, is like electing Hitler himself I would never hear thje end of this. It is time fort the jews to unite and leave the Nazi Democtratic Party who is more intrested in protecting pigs than humans

I'm surprised there wasnt a blizzard this time. It seems everytime he opens his mouth about this hoax, there is a blizzard. Der Aybishter zul helfin that next time he mamesh freezes tzi toit.
So let me get this straight, he is once again preaching his hoax, the liberal religion of global warming when the FACTS are that the average temps have fallen since 2001. They cant accurately forecast the weather more than 3 days out but these Global Warming tipshim are telling us whats gona be in 10, 20, 30, etc years. Something is REALLY wrong with that! Weather goes in cycles which is why some 30 years age we were hearing about the upcoming ice age -- WHICH DIDNT HAPPEN EITHER!
Its a hoax. Al Gore is hoax. He made a movie with so many holes, it looked like he was doing a Swiss cheese commercial.

Why is every Jew so sensitive when someone takes the Nazis as an example? I think that it's a way to express evil - because it was the most evil movement in the history! So I don't see the point of being angry about the comment.

Greater than Iran nukes? North Korea nukes? Islamic Jihadism? The Genocide in Sudan? Millions dying of Malaria per year?
Boy have you been brainwashed. Go educate yourself on the subject other than Al Gore’s film.

You can anecdotally find any number of individual days where the temperature is below normal but the average temperatures over the last 5, 10 and 20 years are rising so your point is irrelevant.

the whole so called global warming proof, is that in the last hundred years the weather inclined. but.. it DEclined in the middle, (we even had a Global cooloing fear..) so whats the proof. there is NO solid evidence. evryone knows that there was a short period of time that the temperature went up a drop, but thats where it stayed.
its become a religion. you have to believe in it.. forget the facts..

Go drink your kool aid and I hate to distract you with FACTS but FACTS are that temps have dropped this decade.
There is NOTHING man can do to 'control' temperature. You CANNOT do GOD'S work for him.

Do you all have SUV's??? Well what comes out of the tailpipe and goes up to the sky-- HELPS to cause GLOBAL WARMING!! Countries like Israel, Finland, China, England, Canada, Japan, Indonesia, France and other European countries all are aware of Global Warming and have laws in effect. In Canada, there are laws in effect to help prevent Global warming. Do you realize that the Great Lakes have shrunk over the past several years?? It also effects the price of fish?? Watch the fish prices in the stores!! They have been shooting up over the years because some fish no longer come to certain pools because the water is either too warm!!! GLOBAL WARMING!! Up go the prices-- So some fish become rare and they start hatcheries for the rare fish and adjust the temperatures!!! Do not fool yourselves!! Look at the temperatures today!! It is July 9!! It was 56 degrees when I went out this morning!! That is not normal!! GLOBAL WARMING is here gentlemen!! Get out a science book or go to the library to learn when you have time!! I hope than VIN posts this.

Gore is a moron making millions off foolish nonsense. Warming and cooling patterns alternate appx every 25 years. It's nature as Hashem created it. The same patterns happen on Mars and other planets. Since Gore's head lives in outer space, maybe he should go to Mars and blame the Martians?

I have a minivan & I have a car. I checked & the same thing was coming out of the tail pipe. So there went your pithy excuse for an argument.
What about all that CO2 that goes into the atmosphere that you global warming wakkos preach about?? Well don't bother mentioning that PLANTS & TREES use that CO2 in order to breath! Don't mention that the gas coming out of your mouth EVERY TIME YOU EXHALE IS CO2!!! If it was so bad would GOD have made us to exhale CO2?? NO WAY!!!

Ha! Ha! you believe anything anyone tells you?! there is (or was) a article on michaelsavage.com, from the brittish telegraph, from the worlds top scientist on water level's, he writes that its a lie, if you use the satalites for measuring you will see that there has not been any significant shrinking! only, that other so called scientists that specialize themself in everything but water level's, are the one who 'know' that the ocean levels are shrinking.
there is NO evidence whatsoever that there is man made global warming.
and its beside the fact that the whole warming is ONLY if you measure the weather starting a hundred years ago untill a few years ago, when in between there was cooling..
now there is a calling concern for global cooling (its still a quiet concern, but in a few years it wont sound so foolish anymore..).
and who cares if there are nations (or hteir leaders) who believe in the religion of global warming, they believe in other religions to! only because a significant amount of People believe in something, doesnt give it any factual status..

Sadly the opposite is the truth. While there can never be a comparison to what the Nazi's did. The fight to combat Global Warming is a continuation of what the Nazi's and the worlds other socialists and fascists believe in. The root outcome of Global Warming is that someone else is going to control your live. How would you as Orthodox Jew feel if the Government told you that you could only have one child. Well the Chinese who practice a form of socialism called Communism already do that. The head of the Green party in England who heads an official Government panel on global warming came to the same conclusion. How long do you think it is going to take until Nancy Pelosi announces the same thing. Global Warming is a Myth it is being used as a tool to control people. Fascism and Communism failed so they are hiding their ideology under a new name, but it has the same net result. If you look at all of the talk about Global Warming there is never any mention of Hashem. Our world is a world that cleans itself. The science behind Global Warming is all false and overhyped while the few who speak out about it are swept under the rug. It is a Trillion dollar industry think about how many so called scientists are researching Global Warming, times that by an average salary of at least $100,000 a year and you would realize how much these people have to lose if their myth was exposed. In Rabbi Miller Speaks Volume 2 published by Artscroll in the back where there is a question and answer section, Rabbi Avigdor Miller Ztl" was asked about Global Warming this was his reply "It is entirely a concoction of the liberals. You needn't be concerned about it at all." We must all hope that the people who believe in this fight against so called Global Warming like Al Gore will be defeated. If their fight was successful the outcome would be disastrous for Jews and all of humanity.

Al Gore has a valid point about the danger of ignoring what we put into the atmosphere. Maybe the analogy wasn't the best, but he wasn't minimizing how bad the Nazis were, so I think he should be cut some slack.

With amusement I read all the posts on this subject, I came away with amusements and conclusion, that the far rightwing nuts, polluted our orthodox gene pool, how and why I cannot understand, and in this thread, I decided against riling against the infected orthodox rightwing view, therefore I will not go after any specific poster but a few general observations. If you go to the source of this reporting you will right away noticed the photo from FOX news TV, so, do I have to say more. Now to the LA blog, no were, did the report insinuate that Gore said that global warming is the same threat as Nazism, he is talking about the awareness of climate change is still refuted by some in the media and some don’t feel the urgency the same way as a lot of people felt "before world war-II" about the threat to humanity from Hitler. You know he is right just go back and read this threat, largely all of you deny that we might have a catastrophic outcome. See, you do not believe it, he is not crazy or lying, just look in the mirror and see yourself.

No, they are not rising. Halevay they would rise, because the world could do with being a degree or two warmer, but unfortunately they are not.
