It’s Just The Beginning
SHTF Plan ^ | 11/13/15 | Mac Slavo

Posted on 11/14/2015 1:46:06 PM PST by Kartographer

A Friday night in Paris, France turned into a bloody rampage when at least two Muslim men armed with assault rifles left 160 dead and scores wounded. Some reports also indicate that suicide bombers were to blame for multiple explosions heard by witnesses.

A de facto state of Martial Law now exists in France, with mandatory curfews and the country’s borders sealed for the first time since the 1962 Algerian war. Paris authorities also announced a closure of all schools and universities in the French capital. Armored vehicles have been deployed around the city.

This is likely only the beginning for a wave of terror that could sweep the region in coming months and years. With hundreds of thousands of unidentified, fighting-age men having entered European borders in the last six months, the zones’ citizens from Germany to Hungary are, quite literally, up in arms.

"The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" (2003)

King Aragorn: Battle Speech at the Black Gate

Audio mp3 delivered by Viggo Mortensen

Aragorn:

Hold your ground! Hold your ground!

Sons of Gondor, of Rohan, my brothers,

I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me.

A day may come when the courage of men fails,

when we forsake our friends

and break all bonds of fellowship,

but it is not this day.

An hour of wolves and shattered shields,

when the age of men comes crashing down,

but it is not this day!

This day we fight!!

By all that you hold dear on this good Earth,

I bid you stand, Men of the West!!!

Preppers’ PING!!

For those who claim that SHTF can’t happen here and is only something that just doesn’t happen in 1st would countries its far past time for you to wake up!
We are watching what was a measured SHTF event unfolding before our very eyes. And as I predicted it has now busted wide open and the 1st world Western European countries have carnage in their streets like of which they haven’t seen since WW II.
The odd thing is it is very likely that Eastern Europe will survive not only because they were wide aware of what was happening, but because of their prolong Iron Curtain Russian occupation those countries have made them tough, resourceful and more resilient than their rich neighbors.
How ironic would that be if in the end the former Eastern Block countries owe their survival to Joseph Stalin?
I will add that these former Eastern Block countries are the ones that have and continue too retain their Christianity while in Western Europe churches sit empty with many being turned into mosque. The east knows what it means to live without Christ and wont do it again.
It almost like God prepared them for this time.
It is your choice you can prep you can scramble for leavings.
So listen to what the bible says: A prudent man sees danger and takes refuge, but the simple keep going and suffer for it. NIV Proverbs 22:3
Selco covers this in this article many times people just can not except that a breakdown is occurring even as they watch it happening before their eyes. Why don’t they realize it? It’s caused by a condition called ‘Normalcy Bias’ a mental state people enter when facing a disaster.
It causes people to underestimate both the possibility of a disaster occurring and its possible effects. This often results in situations where people fail to adequately prepare for a disaster, and on a larger scale, the failure of governments to include the populace in its disaster preparations. The assumption that is made in the case of the normalcy bias is that since a disaster never has occurred then it never will occur. It also results in the inability of people to cope with a disaster once it occurs. People with a normalcy bias have difficulties reacting to something they have not experienced before. People also tend to interpret warnings in the most optimistic way possible, seizing on any ambiguities to infer a less serious situation.
A good article on ‘Normalcy Bias’ is on our own ChocChipCookies Blog The Survival Mom:
http://thesurvivalmom.com/2010/12/29/normalcy-bias/
You either prepare and stand on your own beholden to no one or you become dependent on others to provide your basic needs and become their ‘serf’. Me I don’t want to be beholden to anyone for providing what is needed for me and mine. I certainly don’t want to have to kiss some ‘gubberment’ third class bureaucratic to try and coax some help from them, I don’t want some ‘jack booted’ thug herding me in line and telling me where to stand, sit, eat or sleep. And last but not least I don’t want to be shut up in with a bunch of ‘zombies’ and have to worry about not only trying to get basic necessities but having to fight to keep what I manage to get.
I also posted this advice the other day, but it bears repeating:
If you watch this thread you will see that even on FR there are those who hate and scoff at those who would be prepared to take care of their own should a shtf event occur. They like to claim they are not worried,because nothing is going to happen, some even say things like if it happens I just rob the preppers for my needs. When called on their words they claim they are only joking, but in my experience people who try to mask their words by claiming that they are only joking are only trying to cover the slip of the real them that came out in their words.
When push comes to shove you would surprised what people who claim they don’t care will do to cling to life. One of the most dangerous groups that preppers will have to deal with are the anti-preppers, because they will not only covet what preppers have they will feel the need to punish preppers for having prepared and will feel morally justified in punishing preppers as in their twisted minds they will see the reason that the SHTF event occurred was because they dared prep for it. Their envy and indignation will be like that of leftist have for people who strikes out works hard and makes a good living or even gets well off and not sharing with them
Just getting started or an old hand you might find my Preparedness Manual helpful. You can download the manual at:
http://tomeaker.com/kart/Preparedness1j.pdf NOTE! THIS IS A FREE DOWNLOAD. I DO NOT MAKE ONE CENT OFF MY PREPAREDNESS MANUAL!
For those of you who haven’t started already it’s time to prepare almost past time maybe. You needed to be stocking up on food guns, ammo, basic household supplies like soap, papergoods, cleaning supplies, good sturdy clothes including extra socks, underwear and extra shoes and boots, cash (I myself have been putting up change for the past few years both for the metal content and the fact that using change places to make what purchases you can will move you down the the list of possible marks during shtf), tools, things you buy everyday start buying two and put one up.
As the LDS say “When the emergency is upon us the time for preparedness has past.”
Again I like to recomend FReeper’s ChocoChipCookie Blog The Survival Mom (Please Blog Police let this one slide!) Where you can get lots of useful information like:

By way of comparison, the 2008 Mumbai attacks killed 168 and wounded at least 308.

Don't be silly. The real SHTF will involve a two-way nuclear exchange.

And, of course, Obama wants to increase and accelerate the admission of Syrian refugees to the US.

That is very true.

And when the Serbs were fighting back against the Muslims, we fought againt the Christian Serbs and bombed them the full force of NATO under Bill Clinton. The media hyped that it was the Muslims were were the vicitims.

Hey remember when all those French liberals laughed and called people like me racists for warning them about the flood of Muslims coming in to their nation?

The French can kiss my ass now.

You sound surprised. They all passed the Baghdad Bob Public Speaking course in journalism indoctrination school.

The real SHTF

Wonder who gets to make those definitions?.

Looks to me like I'm dealing with a personal SHTF situation.

I am using prepper supplies to get along so far. I'm also sure I won't survive this situation in the long run.

A personal SHTF situation. There isn't anything micro about dying to the person that is doing the dying.

Hi Johnny. Good to see you post, and sorry that things for you are so rotten. I’ve got a bunch of freeze-dried and dehydrated foodstuff, including the newer smaller sizes. PM me if you would like me to send some your way. It’s good to have spare stuff on the shelves when getting around is a difficultly. I didn’t do diddly with the garden this year, so sadly I can’t offer freshly canned things.

Obsession:Radical Islam’s War Against the West

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-t2gzOCSHRk

Obsession is a film about the threat of Radical Islam to Western civilization. Using unique footage from Arab television, it reveals an ‘insider’s view’ of the hatred the Radicals are teaching, their incitement of global jihad, and their goal of world domination. The film also traces the parallels between the Nazi movement of World War II, the Radicals of today, and the Western world’s response to both threats. Featuring interviews with Daniel Pipes, Steve Emerson, Alan Dershowitz, a former PLO terrorist, and a former Hitler Youth Commander with clips of Noni Darwish also Brigitte Gabriel author of “Because They Hate” and “They Must Be Stopped”
We, in the West and all non-Muslim countries are at war with Radical Islam. Today, June 8th, 2011 nothing much has changed except that Radical Islam has grown in every country including the USA and (at least on the surface) very little has been done since September 11, 2001 to stop this infestation of Islamic ideology and of hatred toward Western civilization and values.
Since 9/11/2001 there have been more than 17,000 terrorists attacks around the world.
What can you do?: Visit http://www.actforamerica.org/ Brigitte Gabriel’s organization to enlighten America about this terrible threat to our way of life.
