So many people do not read what others say, I said I have foodstocks and supplies of materials for various reasons, it is cheaper to buy in bulk so I often use a cash and carry (still a member from the days when I had a guest house), BOGOF and other offers make stocking up a very good incentive and cost effective, times of need come for a variety of reasons some of which I stated, fuel strikes, exceptional weather, collapse of economies in Countries which supply goods to our supermarkets, panic buying by others when something does go in short supply (I remember the early 70s when you couldn't get sugar or toilet roll due to industrial action amongst many other daily products) I don't suggest everyone stocks up on a few essentials but I like to.
As for Nuclear War, I am actually on the 40-50 mile fringe of many "first strike targets" Manchester Airport, Telford (a major army supply depot) (Cosford a useable runway and airforce base) Stafford (ditto), Birmingham airport, the Oil refineries on the Welsh Coast, so fall out would be the biggest threat in the event of strike on mainland UK, however the thread is about a strike in Iran, again meaning fallout would be a problem not a direct hit on this area, as was the case with Belarus, Norway, Sweden and many other areas following the Chernobyl disaster.
Did you know that in Switzerland every building has to be built with a Nuclear Bunker beneath it, they must comply to current Swiss regulations with bombproof doors etc, public building are used for building emergency shelters or emergency hospitals, barracks etc but all private houses have to have thier Nuclear Bunker sorted before the rest of the building is constructed, The Company I worked for a few years ago in Verbier were fined for removing one of the bombproof doors in thier cellar/bunker.
I am sorry fella but it sounds a wee bit bonkers to me but hey ho when I am bein contaminated you will get the last laff I spose.
Aye it would be a funny old world if we were all the same.
Dunno about rambo, I was thinking of this guy:
Your cellar full of food wont help when the graboids turn into ass-blasters!
ooooo we like dirty :rascal:
According to popular world opinion the bunkers that Israel want to take out are only those located in remote desert places, these house Irans Nuclear projects, the alledged building of nuclear missiles, Heavy water, plutonium storage facilities etc. Your right Iran will have many military bunkers and probably in populated areas but Israel is only (at the moment) planning to take out the nuclear facilities, they may still do this with conventional weapons if they think they can achieve thier objective but what can you say when a Nation like Iran says it is going to wipe out your own Nation at it's first available opportunity, I suppose it is hardly surprising that Israel is planning a pre-emptive strike.
Of course the rest of the world is trying to negotiate with both sides to prevent this happening but I really cannot see Iran giving up it's plans to become a nuclear power.
Nobody is forcing you to take part in this debate, you can ignore it, but the threat of using Nuclear Weapons in a first/pre-emptive strike is big news and there is a lot being written about it, it is on many news channels and everywhere else as is to be expected
here are a few relative links
U.S., Israelis are willing to risk nuclear war with Iranians
Is This Threat Different From All Other Threats?
Can Brazil Stop Iran?
Iran threatens pre-emptive action against Israel
Iran has threatened to launch pre-emptive action against Israel in the event of an attack on its nuclear facilities, raising the tempo in an increasingly bellicose exchange of rhetoric with the Jewish state.
Israel Threatens Iran Over Nuclear Research
the west and its proxy (israel) will not attack iran until it has overturned/changed the regime in syria. take a step back and look at the geostrategic situation from a solely western corporate point of veiw.
to stop future developement of the brics you must control africa and eurasia's resourses and prevent trade with the brics and maintain preponderance. read kissinger and bzrezinski and you will understand more clearly the events unfolding. arab spring, libya, syria, somalia, sudan, iran, after having experienced osama to get afghanistan, weapons of mass destruction to get iraq, protection of civilians and humanitarianism to flatten libya and same for syria.
the western leaders dont give a phuck about protecting civilians abroad or at home. they care about profit and war makes plenty of that for some.
western special forces are the syrian free army and paid mercenaries and ciaquader.
the libyan rebels are paid mercenaries, western special forces, al ciaquader and traitors from the previous regime filling their own pockets while most libyans now struggle to feed themselves while the oil flows out for free. nato reparations.
the taliban (afghanis) are likely patriots fighting occupation. al quaeder means data base in arabic. it is the data base of the mujahadeen fighters, recruited, armed, trained and financed by the c.i.a. as a policy of zibignew bzrezinski to expel the soviets out of afghanistan.
am i so old and you so young that these events have taken place in my lifetime and not yours. am i mistaken in joining up the dots ?
how can intelligent human beings with the ability to operate keyboards not see what is taking place unless literally, they were born yesterday and have no foreknowledge ?
if you wish to prevent thermo nuclear catastrophe, you must first wise up. by becoming aware to these machinations, the politicians take fright of your awareness. while you swallow the lies and bullshit, they do more of the same. wake up.
