    Read the book "Strategic Failure" - Mark Moyar - 2015 - Chapter 6 "Military Footprints Matter - Iraq" - pages 76 - 96. The information is available - all it takes is some initiative and curiosity.

    The information you seek is available. But we see again the lack of curiosity and initiative.

    I've accepted long ago that facts have no meaning to you.

    I don't see this as disputing anything I've posted.

    I'm not surprised. Obama's legacy includes inheriting a safe and stable Iraq with a murder rate less than that of Brazil which just hosted the summer Olympics and giving it all away. If the argument is that he didn't realize that by pulling all military, diplomatic, and intelligence personnel out of Iraq would end badly that confirms his tragic foreign policy ineptitude.

    If he wasn't a crackpot your argument might mean something.

    - wiki

    That is not the consensus of climate scientists or Al Gore. That is extremist and alarmist. And always beware of old scientists. The man is 97 years old. Do you seriously look to centurians for your scientific opinions?

    It matters to nobody in the cult but out here in the real world it is met with applause.

    No, what he said in 2006 was crackpottery. No mainstream scientist would have backed that claim. And claiming he is the father of global warming is crackpottery,

    He is 97 years old. At 92 he made some nutty claims.

    When you grow up and have kids and even grandkids of your own you will realize how obvious it is when you are talking with children. One good giveaway is as you mature you come to respect the wisdom that comes with age and really admire even envy healthy old people that still seem sharp as a tack. Only children mock them.

    Yep and I am old enough to tell the difference between wisdom and fossilised thinkin

    - - - Updated - - -

    Ws it? Oh! I suppose you are right because the denialists jumped on this bandwagon and rode the alarmism to the end whereas the serious scientists were left shaking their heads and trying to be heard

    On the contrary Lovelock jumped off the band wagon and we welcomed him to the place called reality as the cult shoots its slings and arrows at him.
