With the understanding that some may not have the time or patience for my rhectoric/commentary: The PREPARATIONS FOR NUCLEAR SURVIVAL is contained in the url address following the quoted exert from WND.
It grips my goat that every now and then our fears are raised by internal and external authorities over wmd, pandemic disease, and home grown terrorist. Our borders aren't closed; Home land security is succeeding in doing everything it can to secure the continuance of government, surveilance of our citizens, removal of personal protection such as our guns and ammo, preparation of laws and executive orders designed to impair our own freedoms and self reliance to protect ourselves against whatever disasters and impairment of order that such disasters may cause to the order of our communities and country. It is like 'they' are depending on our reliance upon 'their' preparations...... while it is impossible.... just like with Katrina..... for 'them' to provide for our survival.
FEMA and government officials, beginning with the local and state of NOLA, DID let the people down in Katrina disaster: The hurricane preparations encouraged here on the coast, would have done little to protect those people from the floods, and the anarchy which prevailed during and after the hurricane: The officials were well aware of weaknesses in the levees, the pumps, the demographics which reduced the likelihood that many could evacuate without assistance and provision of publically provided transportation, and the failure to plan for such and annouce the need in time for civilian action. We've seen an increase in para-military type of police interventions which have exceeded the presumed threat; yet the government officials of La, could not call in their own forces or the national guard to protect its citizens or secure property!
What does all this mean? It means.... that while we maintain a loyallty to our government and system of order, we MUST become MORE RESPONSIBLE for learning what we can and preparing our selves and our communities for the advent of disasters and our own preservation: THE GOVERNMENT IS NOT TELLING US HOW TO PREPARE. The department of homeland security is positioning itself as to how it may confiscate personal property to provide for the 'national good' and dispose of our constitutional rights..... and is providing for the secuity of its own continuance BUT is not helping us to understand how we can preserve our survival AND our rights through self preparation.
T H E R E IS H O P E !!!!!!!
