Radiofrequency radiation injures trees around mobile phone base stations. This makes the rounds on facebook. I am a ghoul soaking in the rads so i dont care.

That's extra fun when you know just how much radiation it takes to really harm a tree. Even around Chernobyl only the areas that got hit the hardest with fallout had massive plant death - anything less than appreciable amounts of a reactor core raining down doesn't seem to bother trees much. (Nvm the entire "non-ionizing" part...) Oh well, radiation is scary when you known nothing about it and don't want to learn.

So here's the popsci article that I saw http://www.popsci.com/technology/article/2010-11/wi-fi-radiation-killing-trees This article is talking about WiFi signals as opposed to cell phone towers, but the effects seem largely minimal. And I especially don't think that a comparison to Chernobyl makes any sense

I mean, if you put a plant next to a radio tower I guess it might conceivably get a degree of radiation burn but it's not going to be radioactive and that's why you don't live underneath high power radio transmitters.

I had to do some searching but I found a writeup regarding the wifi/tree study posted 4 years later. you'll see why this wasn't shared on various news sites compared to the original fearmongering one: from http://www.pepijnvanerp.nl/2014/10/no-clues-for-negative-effects-of-wi-fi-on-trees-according-to-wageningen-university/ I'm not going to copy the whole thing but I suggest you read it if you're interested. Basically they did a legit study exposing wifi radiation to trees in controlled climate chambers and found negligible differences between the experimental and control group. And this wasn't a study backed by multiple universities, it was done by one university and commissioned by the guy who manages the city's urban "green spaces". quote:To cut things short: the scientific experiments by Wageningen University don’t show any clue that Wi-Fi (or other sources of EM-fields, like UMTS and DVB-T) might have a negative health effect on trees. It therefore is very unlikely that EM-fields play any role in the occurence of the tree disease and the cause of that should be sought in another direction.

Seems rather unsurprising, correlation is not causation and all of that.

If they just wanted him dead, they'd have simply dropped a few bombs on the place. But what they wanted was to capture as many people and as much info on site as possible.

Plus I don't think it counts as a crazy conspiracy theory to suggest that taking him alive wasn't even much of an actual mission priority. Obama's got wayyyy fewer headaches if he comes back in a bag, not because it wasn't him or something, but because he doesn't have half the country screaming about why we gotta do all this "trial" nonsense. And everybody involved in the mission knows this.

I'm 100% sure that bringing him back to the US alive was never part of the mission. There are two things they can do with him in that situation. Put him on trial (which would have been a clusterfuck) or throw him in Guantanamo forever. Both of those outcomes have much the same set of downsides and create a continuing problem for as long as OBL is still alive. Even if he was captured alive, I'd be willing to bet that the mission parameters were 'shoot him as soon as expedient'.

So Kim Dotcom, a man who hates attention, is busting Richgate wide open, right? He says he knew Rich and that he definitely was in contact with wikileaks and he was the leaker, totally.

Oh I'm well aware but lol if you think the us government didn't hand him over knowing they'd get what they wanted. It was a show trial. Not that he didn't deserve it, I feel he did, but if there was any doubt the Iraqi government would pardon him they absolutely wouldn't have handed him over in the first place.

I feel like "show trial" is a little unfair given that he didn't exactly hide his dictating. Like a show trial is usually used to suggest you've rigged the result, if the defendant does that themselves that's not quite the same.

The idea that Bin Ladin had anything to do with those towers was disproven. Bin Ladin wasn't the man "killed" by the military without a trial that was all made up. If he was ever killed at all it happened at Tora Bora. It is a myth like Mohamed Atta. I think I need a photo op.

I knew Nanking denial existed in Japan and certain circles but this is the first time I've seen anyone cite ghosts as evidence. http://eng.the-liberty.com/2014/5260/ quote:Master Ryuho Okawa of Happy Science Group called forth the spirit of Iris Chang to find out the truth.

I've been watching ufo videos on youtube, some of them would be kind of plausable if it weren't for the fact that the people who post them are always crazies who think science is a scam and the world is going to end this year. That and the horrible clickbait titles/thumbnails.
