Alex Jones Explains How Government "Weather Weapon" Could Have Been Behind Oklahoma Tornado

The Government "Can Create And Steer Groups Of Tornadoes," But Jones Isn't Sure That Happened In Oklahoma

Conspiracy theorist radio host Alex Jones explained to his audience today how the government could have been behind the devastating May 20 tornado in Oklahoma.

On the May 21 edition of The Alex Jones Show, a caller asked Jones whether he was planning to cover how government technology may be behind a recent spate of sinkholes. After laying out how insurance companies use weather modification to avoid having to pay ski resorts for lack of snow, Jones said that "of course there's weather weapon stuff going on -- we had floods in Texas like fifteen years ago, killed thirty-something people in one night. Turned out it was the Air Force."

Following a long tangent, Jones returned to the caller's subject. While he explained that "natural tornadoes" do exist and that he's not sure if a government "weather weapon" was involved in the Oklahoma disaster, Jones warned nonetheless that the government "can create and steer groups of tornadoes."

that makes some people insist on coming up with a purposeful 'reason' for everything that happens.

Some people think it's all due to The Gods, and others...aliens. Or Lizard People, I suppose. Some of them get radio shows.

There is a silver lining to such ass-hattery...every dollar sent to such lunatics by their gullible followers is a dollar not sent to a RW candidate.

If the Air Force wanted to kill some people, surely they'd kill more than thirty-some of them at a time?!

I actually lived in Oak Grove not too far from Portland, TN. I was born when we still lived in Gallatin. I used to work at the Western Enterprises plastic factory in Portland during summer and winter break from college. I'm betting it's not there any longer. I made Kirby vacuum cleaner parts. That was a long, long time ago.

are far from that point at the present time.

But, I have read not long ago that some scientists attribute the greatly increased
number of violent storms to the global warming of the past few decades. We've
always had violent storms, of course, but they were comparatively rare before the
1950s.

Blame it on Big Oil, if you must find someone to blame!
