Forced abortions,mandatory sterilization,global governance —these are just some of the ideas Obama’s science advisor has supported in the past.
According to a Fox News article,John Holdren —President Obama’s "science czar"—has espoused the need for forced abortions,sterilizations,and the creation of a "Planetary Regime"that would oversee population levels and protect the planet. The ideas are contained in a book he coauthored in 1977 entitled Ecoscience:Population,Resources,Environment.
Ben Lieberman with The Heritage Foundation says that while Holdren does have some solid scientific credentials,he also has a very long history of making outlandish statements.
"Part of his solution to whatever the crisis he felt was befalling the world at the moment has been population control —very,very heavy-handed efforts at population control,even to the point of talking about sterilizing populations against their will and so forth,"he points out. "So a lot of really scary things that didn’t come out in his confirmation hearing."
