Americans Would Have No Place to Go in Nuke Attack

Yes it was. And lot's of good info on how to survive what many thought was unsurvivable. And that was worse-case; a full-blown Soviet mass attack. A few suitcase nukes are NOT gonna get us all. It will only turn certain areas in the Old World into melted glass, IMHO.

What??? You weren't told to "drop" under your desk??? That's what they told US here in L.A. Unified back in the fifties. Oh, and we were told to put our backs to the windows, too. Yeah, that'll help!

Those who prepared for a possible Y2K event were mocked and ridiculed by many. Americans generally think serious preparation for such things as nuclear attack is only for nutcases and extremists.

A lot of people will die from a nuclear attack and it will be because of their own foolishness and lack of preparation. Americans have the ability to prepare themselves for disaster but make the choice not to do anything. The government has fooled the people into believing the government will protect them from whatever comes. The government has already proven it can no longer even control our borders. We are on our own to survive. A few will. Many won't.

Thanks for some common-sense comments.... I have a copy of that book; I 'borrowed' the idea of the title for this:

Nuclear, Biological, & Chemical Warfare- Survival Skills, Pt. II

There's a link in it to Kearny's book, which can be read/downloaded online; a lot of printing, though!

Is there no end to the damage this piece of trash has cost this country? And no cost will ever be required of him on this earth, he's free to pick up dumb blondes at cocktail parties with his, "I would handle a war better", line.

If you are allergic to iodine, DO NOT take potassium iodine or potassium iodate. FYI...you can find out more at

While U.S. political leaders are prepared to survive a nuclear attack, protecting the general public from radiation apparently is not part of the equation.

That's homeland defense working for you.

Ask for tax deductions when building a fall out shelter in your garden! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

I am not sure yet that this corrupt garbage hasn't killed us. He sells the terrorists the ability to communicate in ways that trump our CIA and FBI, he sells China our missle secrets, in exchange for political donations for Hillary he keeps the IRS off of CAIRs back while they support terrorist organizations. I feel about him like I do Ben Ladin, there is enough evidence that points to him to convict.

Yes, I am allergic to iodine. Even Betadyne swabs on my skin cause a reaction. Can't eat shrimp or take iodine dyes for MRIs, etc. Using Prednisone doesn't help much.

[PennsylvaniaMom]

I am the same (no shellfish, no Betadine, no iodine, I even use non-iodolized salt). May I suggest, for your safety, (if you haven't already done so) get a MedicAlert tag. There is not one specific to iodine allergy, but I got the blank one and had it engraved. If you were in an accident, were unconscious, and were given a scan w/an iodine tracer you could do much more harm. Its better to be safe.
