I don't see Iran doing anything of consequence, but I'm not against being prepared.

It's that Boy Scout in me.

My dad was looking to buy a house in central Florida years ago that was built after the Cuban missile crisis. While looking at it, he found an attached hidden underground shelter that the original owner had built under the carport, that the realtor apparently did not know about. It had its own electric generator, located in its own sealed off little room, a complete bathroom w/shower, an electric or manually operated air supply, if needed, and I believe 4 fold-down canvas bunk beds. It also had a couple of glass lookouts, maybe 2ft thick, 4" square, for daytime light. It had a couple of air supply pipes going outside. It had its own underground electric water well for drinking water and for bathroom use. It had two thick steel solid-locking entry doors from the inside of the basement, plus two thick solid-locking exit doors to the outside. The main room was maybe 20'x15'. It was solid concrete all around. We used it a bedroom for one of my brothers, then later my dad made a workshop out of it. The older boys used the bathroom as their own downstairs private bathroom. It also made for a good hurricane shelter. This is also where my dad stored his thousands of old Popular Science, Popular Mechanics, Mechanics Illustrated magazines, stored in a little hallway off to the enclosed bathroom. I tell you, if we had to use this bomb shelter for an extended period of time, we would have had a ton of reading material.

going to show my stupid here, but how would one get information on building such a thing here in the States.

Mine would have to be big enough for about Seven people, Eight dogs and Two cats.

You don't seriously think I'd forget my four-legged babies do you?
