Oh, Frack!

Now is the time at SDA when we juxtapose!

Promised Land - Not only does Image Nation Abu Dhabi finance the "Promised Land," but the Abu Dhabi government owns the media company that subsidizes Image Nation.

FrackNation - was funded on Kickstarter by small donations from more than 3,000 individuals. No donations were accepted from anyone connected to the oil and gas industry.

Wonder if Al " I sold out to a a Jew hating oil nation for a cool $hundred $million" thinks about funding propaganda movies.

Does he have Matt Damon's number? I smell a sequel.

Promised Land is on the same level of absurdity as Inconvenient Truth.

I’ve always maintained big oil money funds anti-oil protest activity – it’s a matter of manipulating public perception for their self interests. The useful idiots who make all the noise in these crusades provide the justification for retailers driving prices up due to concocted supply vacuums or creating fraudulent low supply perceptions with junk science propaganda.

In this case they are just going right for the throat in attacking their direct competitors and their technology which will produce plentiful inexpensive energy. We all know why the media is obsessing over guns while this scam of the century goes unpublished.

"I’ve always maintained big oil money funds anti-oil protest activity "

Yes, exactly. Just like the anti-freeze shortages a few years ago. There were warehouses
full of the stuff.

'Environmentalists' in Abu Dhabi are doing for fracking what American 'environmentalists' are doing for the oil sands, pipelines and shipping...

About Kate

Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.

This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."
