The militarization of climate change

OP-ED: "Environmental 'Intelligence?' We don't need to spy on global warming," by Peter Hoekstra, Wall Street Journal, 10 May 2007, p. A16.

Good example of why I don't care for the militarization of global warming's "threat": spy satellites redirected to watch environmentally-stressed areas.

This mind-set only opens the door for raiding the DoD budget for bucks and bodies for non-security issues.

But you can say: "Everything relates to security!"

Yes, but not every security tool relates to everything.

Interagency can't just be robbing Peter to pay Paul.
