Time Is Running Out As We Witness Middle East And European Wars With Nuclear Capable Countries Taking Different Sides - Can You Survive In The Aftermath?
No matter which side of the Hamas/Israel war you come down on, when we step back and look at events happening right now, including the Ukraine/Russian war which has been raging since February 2022, it is clear we are witnessing events that will alter the world as we know it.
It is not just Russia versus Ukraine, or Hamas versus Israel, nor is it Democrat versus Republican on which side of either war they come down on. It has become citizen against citizen, friend against friend, neighbor against neighbor, brother/sister against brother/sister and husband versus wife.
Let us look to protests in New York City as an example of the ugliness we as Americans are displaying.
Hundreds of pro-Palestinian demonstrators, organized by the Democratic Socialists of America, rallied Sunday in the Big Apple — stomping on and burning the Israeli flag — as Islamic terrorists in the Gaza Strip continued their assault on the Jewish state.
Scores of counter-protesters turned out in support of Israel at the Manhattan rally, too, with verbal clashes between the opposing sides escalating throughout the day and at least one skirmish breaking out near the United Nations compound in Midtown.
One attendee in the pro-Palestinian camp was pictured holding up an image of a swastika on their phone....
New York City is not the only city seeing these types of protests, as we see reports spanning the world. From "Bangladesh to Las Vegas and Brazil to Rome, demonstrations by supporters of Israel and the Palestinians were held around the world as people took to the streets to expresses their views and often outrage as the war escalated between Israel and Hamas militants," according to the Associated Press.
In Paris, people gathered to support Israel as the Eiffel Tower was lit in the colors of that country, and in Rome more gathered at the Emperor Tito’s Arch as it was also light up in blue and white.
In Karachi, Pakistan, people burned Israelis and American flags while in London people held candle light vigils for Israeli victims.
The devil sure knows how to divide and conquer, yes?
These tensions are not just between people, but nations are also coming down on one side or another. These tensions are not just between world powers, but between nuclear powers.
Instead of thinking about what comes next as these wars rage on, the majority of people are so busy bickering on who is right and who is wrong, most aren't thinking of what comes next if cooler heads do not prevail.
There is no doubt that once the first nuclear weapon drops, many more are going to follow.
Are you prepared for the fallout, assuming you are not in the area of a direct hit or close enough to said hit that acute radiation exposure doesn't kill you within days or weeks?
ANP Emergency Fundraiser: The globalists war on ANP is all part of the globalists 'Big Tech' effort to silence conservative and independent voices, allowing them to maintain a monopoly on the flow of information. As George Orwell made clear to us decades ago, "The further a society drifts from the truth, the more they will hate those who speak it." But, with your amazing help, we at ANP promise to keep 'speaking truth to power' because, as Orwell also reminded us, "If liberty means anything at all it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear."
HIROSHIMA AND NAGASAKI - A CAUTIONARY TALE
Both Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan, were hit by atomic bombs by the U.S. and while nuclear bombs and atomic bombs have differences, and there are far more people in the world today, the fallout and deaths associated with the dropping of atomic bombs, work as a cautionary tale of the devastation the world would be looking at.
• Nuclear bombs use fusion or fission reactions to create an explosive release of energy. Atom bombs rely solely on fission.
• Nuclear bombs are significantly more powerful than atom bombs. The first nuclear bomb had a yield of around 20 kilotons while the first atom bomb had a yield of around 20 tons.
A look at the damage of an atomic bomb, less devastating that a nuclear bomb, can be found in before and after pictures at History.com.
History.com also provides a written description of the tragic aftermath.
Because of the extent of the devastation and chaos—including the fact that much of the two cities' infrastructure was wiped out—exact death tolls from the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki remain unknown. However, it's estimated roughly 70,000 to 135,000 people died in Hiroshima and 60,000 to 80,000 people died in Nagasaki, both from acute exposure to the blasts and from long-term side effects of radiation.
The loss of life in present day would be in the tens of millions or even in the billions, depending on how many nuclear bombs were dropped in retaliation after the first one was launched, and given the enhanced strength of nuclear versus atomic.
Another difference between now and then, is we have many more options to protect ourselves, and the ability to limit long term effects, as well as the means to obtain items to survive the aftermath that were not available back in 1945.
THE PREPARED ARE MORE LIKELY TO SURVIVE THE AFTERMATH
I have heard some say they do want to live in a post-nuclear war world, but unless they plan to commit suicide, which is tantamount to murder in the eyes of God, if they are not in the line of a direct or close hit, survive they must.
For those surviving a nuclear world war and planning to stay put, everything from creating your bunker, a basement for that have it, or a specific room for that do not, to having protective gear on hand, to food and water, to having enough potassium iodine pills, are all part of preparing for the worst, while hoping for the best.
The data below comes from the website World Population Review, and matches the estimates from other sources as well, as to what countries have nuclear weapons (and capabilities) and approximately how many they have.
• Russia - 6,255 nuclear warheads
• United States of America - 5,550 nuclear warheads
• China - 350 nuclear warheads
• France - 290 nuclear warheads
• United Kingdom - 225 nuclear warheads
• Pakistan - 165 nuclear warheads
• India - 156 nuclear warheads
• Israel - 90 nuclear warheads
• North Korea - none, but material to build 40-50 nuclear warheads
Those are just the nuclear weapons and nuclear capabilities, but some also think Iran, who controls Hamas, has the capability as well.
Between the countries that have taken sides or are supporting either Ukraine or Russia, and now the countries supporting and/or are siding with Israel or Hamas, which include countries with nuclear weapons, we are as close to another world war as we have even been.
NOTE TO READERS: THIS THREAD IS ABOUT PREPARATION, NOT JEW OR HAMAS BASHING, SO STICK TO THE TOPIC RATHER THAN DRIVING AWAY ANY MORE READERS.
Remember, prepare for the worst, and pray for the best.
