In 1995, Bill Nye found a way to connect an Islamist terror attack in Paris to climate change, saying, "You ready? It's very reasonable to conclude that the recent trouble in Paris is a result of climate change."
00:00:00.160Hi everybody, this is Gadsad. In chapter 6 of my 2020 book, The Parasitic Mind, I explain the collective mind malady known as Ostrich Parasitic Syndrome, whereby you come up with all sorts of ways to deny a blatantly obvious reality.
00:00:20.220One of the instantiations of Ostrich Parasitic Syndrome is to not blame certain geopolitical realities or terrorism on the obvious culprit, but to blame it on all sorts of other reasons.
00:00:32.520So, for example, Bill Nye, so I'm going to read you here from page 124 and 125.
00:00:37.100For example, in 1995, Bill Nye, a self-described science guy, found a way to connect an Islamist terror attack in Paris to climate change, saying, quote, you ready?
00:00:49.360it's very reasonable to conclude that the recent trouble in Paris is a result of climate change
00:00:55.920there is a water shortage in Syria this is fact-based small and medium farmers have
00:01:01.320abandoned their farms because there's not enough water not enough rainfall and especially the young
00:01:06.520people who have not grown up there have not had their whole lives invested in living off the land
00:01:11.600the young people have gone to the big cities looking for work there's not enough work for
00:01:15.940everybody so that this is this affected youths as we say the young people who don't believe in the
00:01:21.380system believe the system has failed don't believe in the economy are more easily engaged and more
00:01:27.120easily recruited by terrorist organizations and then they end up part way around the world in
00:01:33.540paris shooting people you can make a very reasonable argument that climate change is not
00:01:38.840indirectly related to terrorism it's related to terrorism so this is just the start of things the
00:01:44.620more we let this go on the more trouble there's going to be you can say quote we'll stamp out the
00:01:50.080terrorists close quote but everybody's leaving their farms because of water shortages that's a
00:01:55.880little bigger problem close quote so Bill Nye argued that the Bataclan terror attack in Paris
00:02:03.800where a bunch of terrorists walked into a place killed nearly 200 people screaming Allahu Akbar
00:02:10.160and all sorts of Islamic, you know, war cries is not really due to that. It's due to the climate
00:02:18.180change that happened in Syria. That's what led to the attack on the innocent people in Bataclan1.00
00:02:26.880in Paris. Well, I just found out a few days ago that we could add something to the list.
00:02:31.540child brides in Islamic societies, turns out it's also due to climate change. So the fact that it0.97
00:02:42.100is a canonical tenant within Islam, because Muhammad had married Aisha when she's six and
00:02:49.640consummated the marriage when she's nine, according to all authenticated Islamic sources, and the fact
00:02:55.820that many Islamic countries have it codified that you could marry child brides and that that
00:03:01.660practice has been going on for 1400 years is actually not due to Islam. It's due to climate
