Interviewed Tuesday for Charlie Rose's PBS show, CNN founder Ted Turner argued that inaction on global warming “will be catastrophic” and those who don't die “will be cannibals.” He also applied moral equivalence in describing Iraqi insurgents as “patriots” who simply “don't like us because we've invaded their country” and so “if the Iraqis were in Washington, D.C., we'd be doing the same thing.” On not taking drastic action to correct global warming:
Not doing it will be catastrophic. We'll be eight degrees hottest in ten, not ten but 30 or 40 years and basically none of the crops will grow. Most of the people will have died and the rest of us will be cannibals.
Turner ridiculed the need for a big U.S. military, insisting “China just wants to sell us shoes. They're not building landing craft to attack the United States,” and “even with our $500 billion military budget, we can't win in Iraq. We're being beaten by insurgents who don't even have any tanks.” After Rose pointed out the Iraqi insurgents “have a lot of roadside bombs that kill a lot of Americans” and wondered “where do you think they come from?”, Turner answered:
I think that they're patriots and that they don't like us because we've invaded their country and occupied it. I think if the Iraqis were in Washington, D.C., we'd be doing the same thing: we'd be bombing them too. Nobody wants to be invaded.

1/ The US is not winning decisively in Iraq because of a stupid policy of restraint to appease self-hating leftists like ted turner!
2/ The chinese ARE building their military AND planning aircraft carriers. Carriers are to project power, not merely to defend the homeland.
3/ Notice how leftists talk about the chaos in the future but then claim nobody needs guns?

Aren't carriers becoming obsolete?

They're the only mobile airbase I can think of. At any rate the Chinese are expanding their nuclear submarine fleet, too.

In that case, mass cannibalism will be termed as Turnerism... ;)
