NBC is refusing to run one of Picken's strongest ads link

You'd think that the parent company of NBC, GE, would be willing to run these ads for a discount since they are pretty big into the wind/solar field. They'd stand to make a lot of orders and thus money if the US gets on board with the Plan.

NBC - Controlled and run by Zionists.

Proposed Ad - Indirectly compliments Iran and makes them look pretty sane compared to an insane U.S., which is eating itself into an early death.
Solution - don't show donkey sh-t eating Americans an Ad that shows Iran in a good light.

Scenes of normal daily life in Iran or any other future bombing target are not displayed on television.

NG should be used a a transportation fuel. It is one of its best and highest uses.

I don't have TV reception or broadband, so I haven't seen the ads.
But from all I've heard of them, one thing seems conspicuously absent. Anyone who has been paying attention for a while knows that Pickens is the world's richest Peak Oil awareness advocate. He has stated in numerous interviews over the last few years that he is convinced we will not exceed our current production of about 85 mbd.
But where in his multimillion dollar ad campaign has he tried to inform J6P about this? Is the idea of Peak Oil too scary for mass consumption?

Pickens plan, as detailed by link, isn't a plan. It's an idea one could nearly write on the back of a matchbook cover.

There's some good specifics about some energy matters on his page, but there are virtually no details about the plan itself. Basically, all it states is it will cost one trillion, and we can build wind farms, transfer NG useage to power cars and reduce foreign oil. No energy amounts, no timeline, no mention why the page wants viewers to spread the word. Nothing about the possible problems or solutions in regard to any of it.

Presumably, the "plan" will require vast government mandates and/or financial giveaways.
