MOSCOW (AP) - A top Russian security official says Moscow reserves the right to conduct pre-emptive nuclear strikes to safeguard the country against aggression on both a large and a local scale, according to a newspaper interview published Wednesday.

"Several potential adversaries have the capability to attack the United States with a high-altitude nuclear weapon-generated electromagnetic pulse, and others appear to be pursuing efforts to obtain that capability," said Graham. "A determined adversary can achieve an EMP attack capability without having a high level of sophistication. For example, an adversary would not have to have long-range ballistic missiles to conduct an EMP attack against the United States. Such an attack could be launched from a freighter off the U.S. coast using a short- or medium-range missile to loft a nuclear warhead to high altitude. Terrorists sponsored by a rogue state could attempt to execute such an attack without revealing the identity of the perpetrators. Iran, the world's leading sponsor of international terrorism, has practiced launching a mobile ballistic missile from a vessel in the Caspian Sea. Iran has also tested high-altitude explosions of the Shahab-III, a test mode consistent with EMP attack, and described the tests as successful. Iranian military writings explicitly discuss a nuclear EMP attack that would gravely harm the United States. While the commission does not know the intention of Iran in conducting these activities, we are disturbed by the capability that emerges when we connect the dots."

Nuclear war is Kim Jong-il's game plan

"Our military first policy calls for an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, retaliation for retaliation, ultra-hardline for hardline, war for war, total war for total war, nuclear war for nuclear war." - Kim Jong-il TOKYO -
A little-noted fact about the second nuclear test conducted on May 25 by the Kim Jong-il administration of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) is that it was a highly successful fission trigger test for multi-megaton warheads.

North Korea would use nuclear weapons in a 'merciless offensive'

Associated Press
Tuesday, 9 June 2009

North Korea today said it would use nuclear weapons in a "merciless offensive" if provoked — its latest bellicose rhetoric apparently aimed at deterring any international punishment for its recent atomic test blast.

Pentagon Preparing For War With The Enemy: Russia

"Today the situation is much more serious than before August 2008....[A] possible recurrence of war will not be limited to the Caucasus. "The new President of the United States did not bring about any crucial changes in relation to Georgia, but having a dominant role in NATO he still insists on Georgia's soonest joining of the Alliance. If it happens, the world would face a more serious threat than the crises of the Cold War. "Under the new realities, Georgia's war against South Ossetia may easily turn into NATO's war against Russia. This would be a third world war." (Irina Kadzhaev, South Ossetia political scientist, South Ossetia Information Agency, April 2009

Joel Skousen Interview- Subject, Nuclear War

The first part of this video is about nuclear war. The last part is speculation on a possible war with Iran. Things have changed since this interview was made and it seems less likely now that there will be an attack against Iran. Nevertheless the powers that be keep rattling their sabers in Iran's direction every so often, just enough to remind us that there is still an issue with them.

Survivability

I grew up in a town in northern Illinois where we could see a nuclear power plant from the end of our driveway about 3 miles away. After Chernobyl and Three Mile Island I became concerned about my family and I living in such close proximity to a nuclear powered electric plant. So I set myself to study about nuclear energy and it's possible health risks.

Subsequently upon the study of nuclear energy one does not have to look too far to find references to nuclear war and it's risks thereof. I remember well reading various references of how because of mistakes in the early warning systems of the United States against the launch of a nuclear attack from the then Soviet Union the U.S. had actually been within minutes of launching what it thought was a second strike or retaliation against what had been mistaken for a Soviet first strike against us. I was appalled that we the American people were just blithely living out our daily lives under such kinds of risks and new absolutely nothing about it.

Also, upon such investigations I learned even though survivability at or near ground zero is very improbable, fallout on the other hand is an entirely different matter. Though there is the potential for even more people to die from fallout it does not have to be, if some simple precautions are undertaken.

I learned however, this fact was actively suppressed by the U.S. government under the agreement of M.A.D., Mutual Assured Destruction between America and the U.S.S.R. The idea was that if either nation took steps to provide for the civil defense of either ones population then that would be a sign or indication that the one who provided it would be preparing for a first strike against the other. This I concluded was MAD indeed. I felt very much betrayed by our government in allowing it's citizens to in effect be held as hostage to the Soviet Union.

So in the course of my life I have paid close attention to any mention of nuclear threats being made. I am very attune to it, my ears instantly pickup on it.

So here we are with this ongoing list of news links making references to the possibility of nuclear war.

It is a threat. A very real threat and it has been for many decades now. The so called collapse of the Soviet Union did nothing to make us safer in fact all it did was make things more unsafe, more unstable. With all the weapons of mass destruction out there in this world someone somewhere is bound to push the button eventually.

Like sheep the populations of the world just go about their daily lives oblivious to the threats out there and with no one telling them that it is perfectly possible to survive the fallout from a nuclear detonation.

Just follow the links on the right hand side bar " The good news about nuclear destruction " and "WHAT TO DO IF A NUCLEAR DISASTER IS IMMINENT" for information of how it is possible to survive.
