15 OCT 07 / "Ignoble Nobel "

Yasser Arafat, Jimmy Carter, and now Al Gore have won the Nobel Prize for Peace, but Mahatma Ghandi has not. Ghandi led hundreds of millions of his fellow Indians to independence through the employment of peaceful mass civil disobedience and is considered one of the greatest leaders of the past century. Arafat was a terrorist, Carter is an ineffectual sitting and former president, and Gore is a hypocritical environmentalist who reportedly does little to reduce his personal carbon footprint while profiting greatly on the hysteria of global warming.

The Nobel prizes in the fields of physics, chemistry, medicine, economics, and literature are rightly considered the most prestigious awards for achievement, but the peace prize is becoming more politically motivated. The majority of the members of the peace prize committee are socialists who resent the inequities of capitalism and America's dominance in the world.

Gore is sharing the prize with the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, which sounds like a credible organization and gives the appearance of scientific authority and consensus, but in reality shares the agenda of the former vice president. Global warming has been refuted by numerous scientists including Dr. William Gray, a renowned meteorologist. The IPCC is not the final arbiter of climate science just as the Nobel committee does not award the peace prize on merit.

Gore's movie, "An Inconvenient Truth," is being shown to thousands of students in the United States and around the world despite having been decried by critics as pure propaganda and full of inaccuracies. The theory that global warming is man made is all too convenient for the environmentalists and socialists who at once want to undermine our market economy and blame America as the world's largest consumer of energy. In that sense, green is the new red. For all the talk about alternative fuels, oil is still by far the most affordable and abundant source of energy. It is the lifeblood of our capitalistic system. 

The real inconvenient truth is the one nobody wants to talk about -- the growing threat of terrorists using weapons of mass destruction against Americans.
