When Art Bell and I published “Superstorm” in 1999, we were criticized as being sensationalists who brought environmentalism a bad name, and hurt the movement. In 2004, when “the Day After Tomorrow”, the film inspired by our book, was released, we received humiliating press treatment, and the film was generally condemned, once again, as being too sensationalistic.

Throughout this whole process, I continued to make the argument that it was NOT sensationalistic at all, but rather that it accurately reflected a type of climate change event that has been well documented.

The Russian movement is aimed at destroying the pro-western and pro-US regime in Georgia, the purpose of which is to prevent the US from using bases in Georgia for an attack on Iran. The Turks probably will not allow the use of their bases by the Americans, as they did not during the early phases of the Iraq war. So Georgia was going to be a crucial staging point.read more

Last summer, the so called “drones” appeared. Linda Moulton Howe and I soon confirmed that the photographs were real, both by what photo analysis could done, and by numerous interviews with witnesses, many of whom were willing to go on the record with their names.

There followed a barrage of drone videos on the internet, all except one of them fakes, and a website appeared that contained the claim that the photographs had been created by its author. But he refused to be interviewed, or to provide any indication of how he had done it. Largely, one would think, because he hadn’t.
