Bangladesh.

This is coolbert:

An article in the Chicago Tribune the day before yesterday seems to offer anecdotal evidence that some of the dire predictions recently made by a British Admiral are beginning to transpire.

According to this Englishman, the world order will begin to break down starting around the year 2012 or so. A breakdown of the existing world order that will have ramifications for nations and peoples everywhere.

This prediction was made in a report to Her Majesty's Government.

The Admiral, using a series of overlays in an "Intelligence Preparation of the Battlefield" type presentation, was able to determine what areas and nations of the world are most susceptible to a forthcoming global upheaval.

A global upheaval that will be due to a combination of factors to include, but not limited to, GLOBAL WARMING.

[let us be clear about the phenomenon of global warming. The planet Earth has been warming steadily for the last 10,000 years. Part of a naturally occurring cycle, perhaps, and only perhaps, exacerbated by the behavior of mankind. Our planet has warmed up about 13 deg. C. during the last 10,000 years, long before the internal combustion engine was invented. I don't want to get into a debate as to whether global warming is occurring or not - - the evidence is that it is happening, BUT IS NOT DUE TO THE BEHAVIOR OF MAN - - and is part of a naturally occurring cycle!!]

The factors leading to a breakdown of the global world order will include, but again, are not necessarily limited to:

* Rising sea levels.

* Over population.

* Islamic fundamentalism.

The one place in the world MOST at risk from a combination of these factors is Bangladesh. Long recognized as an international basket case, Bangladesh finds itself in a predicament for which there seems to be NO REMEDY!

From the Tribune article: [my comments, as usual, in BOLD!]

"Bangladesh, which has 140 million people packed into an area a little smaller than Illinois, is one of the most vulnerable places to climate change. As the sea level slowly rises, this nation that is little more than a series of low-lying delta islands amid some of Asia's mightiest rivers - - The Ganges, Jamuna-Brahamputra and Meghna - -is seeing saltwater creep into its coastal soils and drinking water."

[four major rivers, whose flow is swollen markedly by increased glacier melt run-off from the high Himalaya. Bangladesh is under attack from rising sea and river levels both!!]

"Notorious for its deadly cyclones, Bangladesh is like to face increasingly violent storms as the weather warms and see surging seas carry salt water farther and farther up the country's rivers, ruining soils"

[A 1970 storm, Cyclone Bhola, hit Bangladesh and killed about 500,000 folks. A storm surge came ashore, drowning whole communities en masse'. Rising water temperatures in the Bay of Bengal will mean that future storms will become more frequent and intense both.]

"Bangladesh is hardly the only low-lying nation facing tough times as the world warms. But scientists say it in many ways represents climate change's 'perfect storm' of challenges because it is extremely poor, extremely populated and extremely susceptible."

[a COMBINATION OF FACTORS ALL IN ONCE PLACE. AND made worse by Islamic fundamentalism. Bangladesh is nearly 100 % Muslim. These are Deobandi Muslims?]

"'for every hundred thousand tons of carbon you emit, you have to take a Bangldeshi family' . . . India is already building a fence along its border with Bangladesh."

[by now, that 4000 [2500 mile] fence should be built. A double twelve foot high fence with razor wire in between, patrolled by squads of troops armed with assault rifles. Lit at night, visible from the moon?? The Hindu majority of India are not stupid. They see which way the wind is blowing AND DO NOT WANT TO BE ENCUMBERED BY MASSES OF CLIMATE CHANGE FLEEING MUSLIM REFUGEES!!]

"The alternative could be ugly. Insufficient food, a destabilized government, internal strife that could spread past the country's borders, a massive exodus of climate refugees and more extremism"

[when the word extremism is used, think Islamic fundamentalist extremism. Deobandis once ruled ALL of India. Are resentful and seek "redress". Again, that fence between India and Bangladesh will come in handy!!]

"'A person victimized and displaced will not sit idle' . . . 'There will be organized climate-displaced groups saying', 'Why should you hang onto your place when I've lost mine and you're the one who did this?'"

[the WEST is to blame for all this. That will be the perception. You hurt me, NOW I WILL HURT YOU!!]
