quote:

The Afghanistan Papers are a set of internal documents from the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) obtained by The Washington Post through a Freedom of Information Act request that document the US war in Afghanistan.[1][2][3] The documents reveal that high-ranking officials were generally of the opinion that the war was unwinnable, but kept this hidden from the public.[1][4][5][6] NPR host Lulu Garcia-Navarro said that the "new Pentagon Papers describe explicit and sustained efforts by the US government to deliberately mislead the public.”[4]

the fringe, now debunked research the kgb picked up and spread was based on the assumption that volcanic eruptions are comparable to nuclear explosions

modern work does now say that, yeah, setting a lotta the surface of the planet on fire would affect the climate, but nuking moscow and dc is not a recipe for an instant 40,000 year long ice age

but really it's irrelevant whether the kgb actually believed that nuclear winter was a real threat - it's now public knowledge that they spread the idea to help avert nuclear war, or at least undermine our use of nuclear weapons, which is cool and good

Nah it's a hypothesis that a large enough fire can create a long firestorm that would kick up enough ash to cause large scale climactic cooling.

Trouble is that the math used to predict a long term cooling is fanciful at best and nukes are not unique sources of fire, so we have been able to compare the model to real life events like the Kuwait oil fields and recent major wildfires and the model just makes wrong predictions.

president being part of the choom gang

also the president being anti-choom while president

quote:

Maraniss portrays the teenage Obama as not just a pot smoker, but a pot-smoking innovator.

"As a member of the Choom Gang," Maraniss writes, "Barry Obama was known for starting a few pot-smoking trends."

The first Obama-inspired trend: "Total Absorption" or "TA".

"TA was the opposite of Bill Clinton's claim that as a Rhodes scholar at Oxford he smoked dope but never inhaled," explains Maraniss. Here's how it worked: If you exhaled prematurely when you were with the Choom Gang, "you were assessed a penalty and your turn was skipped the next time the joint came around."

As one of Obama's old high school buddies tells Maraniss: "Wasting good bud smoke was not tolerated."

Another Obama innovation: "Roof Hits."

"When they were chooming in a car all the windows had to be rolled up so no smoke blew out and went to waste; when the pot was gone, they tilted their heads back and sucked in the last bit of smoke from the ceiling."

Maraniss also says Obama was known for his "Interceptions": "When a joint was making the rounds, he often elbowed his way in, out of turn, shouted 'Intercepted!,' and took an extra hit."
