Supine Strategic Posture
The Forward-Looking Strategic Posture of the USA is supine and no pulse is detected.
There is no strategic supply of radiation treatment drugs.
“there is no strategy for notifying the public in real time of recommendations on shelter or evacuation priorities.”

U.S. health-care system unprepared for major nuclear emergency, officials say
By Sheri Fink, Thursday, April 7, 12:40 PM
A blunt assessment says, “Current capabilities can only handle a few radiation injuries at any one time.” That assessment, prepared by the Department of Homeland Security in 2010 and stamped “for official use only,’’ says “there is no strategy for notifying the public in real time of recommendations on shelter or evacuation priorities.”
One example: The U.S. Strategic National Stockpile stopped purchasing the best-known agent to counter radioactive iodine-induced thyroid cancer in young people, potassium iodide, about two years ago and designated the limited remaining quantities “excess,”. Despite this, the CDC Web site still lists potassium iodide as one of only four drugs in the stockpile specifically for use in radiation emergencies.
Totally - Unprepared

"U.S. health-care system unprepared for major nuclear emergency, officials say"
By Sheri Fink, Thursday, April 7, 12:40 PM
"U.S. officials say the nation’s health system is ill-prepared to cope with a catastrophic release of radiation, despite years of focus on the possibility of a terrorist “dirty bomb” or an improvised nuclear device attack."
“limited treatment options”
:(
”staff and materials aren’t in place”
The Department of Homeland Security report acknowledges that officials are poorly prepared to communicate with the public and that the current organization of medical care “does not support the anticipated magnitude of the requirements” following an attack with an improvised nuclear device. It says the United States has “limited” treatment options for radiation exposure and notes that staff and materials aren’t in place to carry out mass evacuations after a large-scale release of radiation. “The requirements to monitor, track, and decontaminate large numbers of people have not been identified,”

anyone surprised? And what
anyone surprised? And what is "our government" doing about it, esp in light of the Fukushima event? So sorry, poor sheeple, no money now. We're completely broke. Any money we can scrape together certainly won't go toward the health and welfare of us pathetic and powerless drones. Got lots of wars to fund. Hey, heading into our 6th "conflict" now in Syria! Whoohooo!
to anyone surprised...
Your comments sum up how I feel too.
It is a reality. Why do some greedy humans enjoy killing each other with these silly war games ?
"Military men are just dumb
"Military men are just dumb stupid animals to be used as pawns in foreign policy."
* Henry Kissinger, as quoted in "The Final Days" by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in chapter 14. Page 194 in the paperback version (1995)
Henry Alfred Kissinger is a German-born American political scientist, diplomat, and recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. He served as National Security Advisor and later concurrently as Secretary of State in the administrations of Presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford. After his term, his opinion was still sought by many following presidents and many world leaders.
Ya know, that quote rocked
Ya know, that quote rocked me and I'm sickened.
"They" consistently demonstrate that's exactly how they feel about our fathers, uncles, brothers, sisters, friends who have put their lives on the line... that they are "dumb, stupid animals".
Not sure when my family and friends who are military will realize what they are actually defending now, 'cause it ain't freedom.
Oh, and Kissinger? He has always been out of the closet re: his contempt for us little people. I do believe he was the one who used the term "useless eaters"?
Scum Parade
It is probably fair to note that Nixon and Ford were both removed from office. Nixon, by threat of criminal prosecution and Ford at the only national ballot his name ever graced. Barry Goldwater told Nixon that even he would likely vote for Senate removal following impeachment.
It is also appropriate to note that Kissinger is much despised by Democrats, Republicans, Libertarians and Independents.
Oh and Tricky-Dick Nixon, Slick-Willie Clinton and Michelle Obama share the distinction of being disbarred lawyers. Jorge Boosh and Kenyan Native Obama assisted Wall Street and the Banksters in the largest heist since Rome was sacked by the Vandals.
Where do we dredge these losers up? And why do we tolerate their misery making existences?
Excellent reminders and
Excellent reminders and info.
Your question is no doubt rhetorical, since WE the people do not dredge up these thugs. It seems that the fix is in long before we get to the primary or general election, regardless of party.
There are lots of so called conspiracy theories about where our candidates come from and how they are presented to us. I've been paying more attention now to those explanations - sure explains how we got to where we are now.
