OSAMA BIN LADEN, ENVIRONMENTALIST: “The man who ordered 9/11’s mass murder fretted about climate change,” Brendan O’Neill writes. To be fair, it’s keeping Charles Manson up at night these days as well.
A few months before bin Laden died of a massive overdose of lead poisoning, the Washington Post ran the classic headline, “Osama bin Laden embraces his inner Al Gore.”
But then, a year and half later, even Al learned to stop worrying and love Big Oil, tacitly declaring “Mission Accomplished” on radical environmentalism by cashing out for $100 million payday to the petro-state of Qatar.
