Best Place to Survive Nuclear War in the U.S.

“ The U.S. bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan in August 1945 killed many hundreds of thousands of civilians…”

Typical Newsweek crap writing.

I resent that!

I do not plan to be a child molesting mutant.

I plan to be "a sip a couple of drops of blood of every week" mutant.

Will there be a live Nuclear War thread here? Will there even be any moderators left? Will someone sneak over to DU to see what they are saying? :)

Day of Wrath was a VERY disturbing tale. Extremely realistic, I’m shocked it hasn’t happened....yet!

No need to worry about that. Country music died a long time ago.

"Taft is the best place to survive a nuclear war because of the winds!"

[John S Mosby]

The did it before in a simpler age of black and white TV— did it to imply that somehow a Veteran Air Force pilot and Libertarian Republican, Barry Goldwater— was going to blow us all up. LBJ— the warmongering demonrat extender of Vietnam-— “the stakes are too high... vote Johnson”.

Every step of the demonrats all along— is to hobble our defense against really bad state actors, and in doing so- make the people fearful. When the exact opposite is true from their “rocket rattle”. Look at Gen. Milley and his “tipping” off the chi-coms— where does he get the notion it is his duty and not treason, or that his entire concept of Trump was a fabrication— Trump kept us out of war, and the Commies knew he meant business. No funny business.

Now— the demonrats are confident scaring the crap out of people through a demented poopy pants stupid JoeBama liar plagiarist, and “wrong on every issue of foreign policy “(this from Nat Sec. Advisor former, Mr. Gates) deliberately goading a non-enemy, Russia (no longer the Soviets) at the behest of his OWNERS— Xi Ping and the Chi-Coms who have their eyes on the vast resources of Russia. The dems play along with the out of date view of the non-Communist Russia. It serves the mil-industrials very well— though the outcome of such “chicken” puts them all out of business

Leaving out the millions of lives saved by not having Allies invade Japan, and wipe out millions of Japanese under fanatic leadership. The Japanese were developing nuclear weapons (with nazi help)— this is little discussed in newsWEAK. Who also seems to forget it was a democrat who ordered the bombs dropped (albeit a VP who was left completely out of the loop of the Manhattan Project).

It will happen. Just a matter of time. Add to that, thousands of gallons of fentanyl dumped into our reservoirs and forest fires lit all over the country.

Our lawmakers are too stupid to recognize we are committing suicide by inviting thousands of terrorists enter America through our southern border to carry out terrorist missions.

[Chainmail]

Then I will stick to the more beneficent gasoline fuel and shelve the napalm, just for you.

"So you trust Biden to conduct a war against Russia and keep it from going nuclear? Did you vote for Biden?"

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

You are very kind.

I fully believe the United States is going to be judged before the rapture. I do believe in a pre-tribulation Rapture in a literal 7-year tribulation and literal 1,000 year reign of Christ but the United States does not deserve to be raptured. I understand no one does but too many people in the United States think we’re going to escape judgment because we’re americans. I say that it is because we’re Americans that we are going to get judged.

Heard about Houston? Heard about Detroit? Heard about Pittsburgh, PA?

Well, I agree with the timing of rapture. In fact the rapture actually launches Daniel's 70th Week AKA the seven-year tribulation.

But the rapture AKA "great catching up" is like salvation - to all who believe in Christ (1 Thess. 4:15-17). Salvation is not given to nations but to individuals who receive Christ.

Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners [not "nations"]. 1 Timothy 1:15.

[E]very one [not "nation"] who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Romans 10:13

Similarly, the rapture is also for those who believe in Christ, not to nations. (1 Thess. 4:15-17)

As far as God judging America, God judged ALL the sins of the world on the cross of Christ (1 John 2:2). God is not looking to judge the world but reconcile the world to himself.

And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and has given to us the ministry of reconciliation; to wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and has committed unto us the word of reconciliation. Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be reconciled to God [our message to the world].

2 Cor. 5:18-20.
