WEBSTER GROVES, MO (KMOX) - A chain of three stores that sells survival food and gear reports a jump in sales to people who are getting prepared for the “possible collapse” of society.

“We had to order fifty cases of the meals ready to eat to keep up with the demand in the past three months,” said manager Steve Dorsey at Uncle Sam’s Safari Outfitters Inc. in Webster Groves. “That’s not normal. Usually we sell 20 to 30 cases in a whole year.”

Dorsey says business has been brisk since the spring uprisings in the middle east, as customers share concerns about political uprisings, the world economy and the future of the United States

Ah yes, the old handheld generator. Perfect for electric blasting caps. Claymores or anything else.

That’s great as long as rich Uncle is following you in a military truck loaded with crates of ammo.

I have not had ammo supply like that in a long, long time.

Well there is another scenario that no one imagines possible or probable. The former soviet union is experiencing a dramatic religious christian revival. Moscow is 20% moslem and the southern border of Russia is moslem. A week or two ago a russian general was quoted as seriously saying that nuclear exchange with countries on their southern border was nearly a foregone conclusion and that the nuclear detonations would escalate beyond that area.

Since the USA is the most influential pro-islamist force in the world today they are the biggest target the russians see.

Christians have lost control of the Us government, the culture and are witnessing the explosion of islam in the middle east and worldwide.

It wouldn't take much prodding for committed christians in Russia to take action and make an effort to stop the destruction of christianity at the hands of the US government.
