In The Event Of A Nuclear Attack

With all the madmen on our planet, the possibility of a nuclear attack has never been more real. Quite a few countries are in possession of nuclear warheads and are capable of delivering them anywhere in the world. Terrorist groups may soon find a leader insane enough to provide them with the necessary hardware.help

For us, living in some of the poorer countries, there is no hope, but if your country possesses an early warning system, even if you only have a few minutes to act, you can make the most of it if you can keep your head.hole

Simply follow these steps when you receive the first warning, but hurry; you may not have much time.super
1. Stay clear of all windows.
2. Switch off all appliances; electric, gas or otherwise.
3. Shut off the electric and gas supply. Not the water.
4. Put out all cigarettes, candles, and open fires.
5. Start filling the bath and basins with cold water.
6. Remove spectacles, contact lenses, hearing aids and tampons.
7. Empty pockets of all sharp objects such as pens and pencils.
8. Loosen neckties, brassieres, corsets, and shoelaces.
9. Unbutton coat and any other restrictive clothing.
10. Take shelter under a strong table and wait for the blast.
11. Immediately upon seeing the brilliant flash of nuclear explosion, bend over and place your head firmly between you legs.
12. Then, if you have the time, kiss your azz goodbye.

I hope you have the time to follow these simple steps. It is unlikely that it will help, but at least you will arrive at the other side, knowing that you tried your best.idea

Hi kitten. God forbid to us to feel nuclear attack. If it happens no that will help.hug
Hi Ummka
You're right. But I fear not everybody is going to listen to Him.doh

Cat I would much prefer to 'go out quickly' than to suffer the horrific after effects, the radiation burning, the awful physical things that happen to the body, the painful, horrific slow death, that comes after the explosion.

Look at Chernobyl today.... so many years after the Nuclear disaster at that plant. Still the ground is radioactive, the rate of leukeamia is still very high, animals and humans birth defects are still appalling.

Would anyone be that stupid in power to actually start a Nuclear war ? I think perhaps North Korea is the biggest threat.

Arab countries ? I doubt it as there is too much business between them and the U.S. and other countries. sad flower

I have read that painting your entire house/trailer or wherever you are living Brilliant White, plus the windows, deflects the radioactivity after the blast, how scientific this is... I don't know but it was on a leaflet we got here in Ireland, years ago... as to what to do, Iodine etc.,
Hi GG
This is really a tongue in the cheek blog. When such disaster befalls us, there will be nothing we can do.
hug wave
wave roll eyes get that tongue out of your cheekgrin tongue

We were taught in army what to do and how many miles away from blast was survivable and what to do in that event.

I think and hope no-one goes that far as I can not bend that far to my ashdoh anymore.peace

Don't laugh.
Do you ever wonder why Saudi Arabia apparently has no interest in acquiring nuclear weapons?
It's claimed the House of Saud has Arabian oilfields wired to a type of 'dead man's switch'. The fields will automatically self destruct in the event of attack. If they go...the world goes for lack of petroleum.

I wonder wherever they could've gotten such a simple yet diabolical concept.
Don't ya love it when life conforms to art?

Hi GG,
Exactly. That is if you have the chance between the flash and the shock wave. Otherwise you won't even have the time to part from your backside with a kiss.laugh

Hi Red, I think the blast may get those to end close enough to each other.grin

Hi Mic
Where is our world going to? Those Arabs simply have no sense of humor.

Hi Ian,
I don't know how to respond. I'm speechless.sigh

Hi Cat,

We also do not know for sure how many children and youth have disabilities that may be attributed to their parents' or grandparents' exposure to the herbicides. The Vietnam Red Cross estimates that 3 million Vietnamese have been affected by Agent Orange, including 150,000 children born with birth defects.
if anyone gets to visit Vietnam..which I strongly recommend..you must visit the women's museum in Hanoi....no man or women could possibly leave that place without tears in their eyes....crying
miclee...im afraid mortal sins didn't stop at vietnam..
Ok guys,
this is not what this blog was intended to be. I'll leave the pics for another half hour and then they're gone. No more of this please.
Ian...America's loss of its soul in Vietnam enabled subsequent sins.
Perhaps it even required them; a macabre search for some sort of military 'redemption'.

Hi Johnny
I think the American politics appear somewhat murky at the moment to is outsiders. I just hope that a good guy and strong gets up there.thumbs up

YouTube Jesse Ventura talks Libertarian bid for President 2016

Run, Jesse! RUN! cheering
Note his prospective VP choice. And reason WHY! :thumbs:

cowboy
Mic....

I agree, Jesse would be good. thumbs up grin


....and, yes Cat. :)


cheers
Hi Mic
Another candidate.wow

Now I'm as mixed up as a chameleon in a smarty box.confused

Hi Lucy
From the sounds of it you will have to start with Putin and Trump.laugh
hug wave
Re: ...chance of nuclear war. With Trump in charge.

Trump spoke out against going into Iraq.
Gov. Ventura spoke out against going into Iraq.
Sen. Sanders voted against going into Iraq.
Rep. McKinney voted against going into Iraq.

Sen. Clinton voted to go into Iraq.

Trump is not the scariest of the contenders. IMO

cowboy
The problem is Miclee, he is the most ignorant and ignorant people are dangerous. However, at the end of the day, the President has very little power. Congress keep him in check and if he gets out of line, they know how to deal with him. And so do the CIA!!
Eh - Cat. Was that directed at me? I don't see lucy here! laugh
I've heard speculation that following his inauguration festivities, each President is taken to the White House screening room. They are then informed who REALLY runs things. In case the point might be missed, they are then shown the Zapbruder film.

An earlier example of such 'arm twisting'?

Woodrow Wilson blackmailed into World War I

It's interesting to speculate what would've happened if Europe had been allowed to grind itself to dust.
With the very real likelihood of a peace dictated on Central Powers (German) terms.

Unfortunately, history does not reveal its options.
sigh

handshake Agreed.
'Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants. We know more about war than we know about peace, more about killing than we know about living. We have grasped the mystery of the atom and rejected the Sermon on the Mount.'

The documentary is based on the Pulitzer nominated book

Note that in 1914 the first British troops were not deployed to Belgium or France. They went to Basra.
What a difference a hundred years makes. NOT!

Was ever a war declared where there was not something monetary to be gained or to be protected. Although, some use the excuse of freeing the oppressed. If only it were so.
Hi Piece
Yes, I'm sorry. I always confuse the two of you. U first encountered the two of you on the same day after returning from a few months 'leave'. And for some reason I cannot separate you.doh

A very interesting conversation you had with Miclee.wow
hug wave
Hi Ummka
Let's hope our leaders are sensible enough to realize that.moping
hug wave
Yes we will hope.hug
wave I will hide under the kitchen table in the case
of a direct hitthumbs up
That's ok Cat. We do look alike!laugh I can think of worse people to be mistaken for!!uh oh peace
Yes, it was an interesting conversation with Mic. thumbs up
Hi Piece,
At the time Lucy had a pic in her profile and if I'm not mistaken, you had one as well. But somehow, the two of you were fused together in my brain. Could it be senility?grin
hug wave
Hi Cat. Well, perhaps it is senility!! I have never had a pic posted here, so not only are you confusing me with Lucy, you are confusing me with someone else also!! I'm not sure how to feel about that!!moping laugh
Cst, I think I'll just 'ride' it out wink


grin
Molly - rolling on the floor laughing
Hi Piece
Well so much for my memory. But I can even recall Lucymaud's photo. I still complimented her on it. I wonder if that is why she removed it.dunno
laugh wave
Hi Molly
Ride it out? For 32,000 years until it is safe to go back into the water?wow
