Monckton and the Hitler styled enviro youth movement
December 14th, 2009
A teaching moment from the Copenhagen summit, as reported by the London Times:
A former Conservative peer has become embroiled in a row after he branded a Jewish climate change protester a member of the “Hitler Youth”.
…The 57-year-old peer was said to be so outraged by the interruption from American sustainable development group SustainUS that he started calling the protesters the “Hitler Youth”.
Lord Monckton (LM) continued to use the phrase during a lengthy exchange with the youngsters the following morning, when he confronted them at a separate event.
Of course the article is written in a disparaging tone towards LM. However the comments to the article are very much in support of LM. Interrupting meetings, reporting dissent and bullying were traits of the Hitler Youth.
