Use of FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt) is a time-tested effective way to get someone to give you what you want. It characterizes a lot of left-wing and environmental activist organizations (though certainly its not exclusive to them). I agree with Don, you need to evaluate statements in light of the motivations of those who are making them.
