1. email adresses.

Perhaps ,we should have the right email adresses, spreaded through all media channels,to be able to require ,and exert pressure in prompt mesures to be taken by western powers to prevent such a catastrofe. I guess if all of us,all over the world,knew exactly how and who and where to put pressure,we will.
2. Cold War on Now
Sam Weinstein ,   USA   (05.10.06)
Haven grown up in the Cold war and through the Cuban Missle Crises and was in the 73 War I will tell you if that scenario happens it will be a bad day for everyone. 5 hospitals will not help very much because they could be destroyed. What is needed is more underground shelters for everyone emergency food storage at home civil defence weather radios like we have in the US and awareness. It is almost as bad now as in the Cold War because even in the US we fear it could happen here also.
3. Isreal should be building extensive underground bomb

shelters. Get a clue Ohmert.
4. Yes,probably # 3 is right.

Maybe,the most prudent ,at the moment, is to use budget in building underground shelters -(that ,B'H, will never be used)
5. Goverment Breakdown
Sam Weinstein ,   USA   (05.10.06)
Take a look what happened in Hurricane katrina to imagine how a goverment copes and imagine it 100 times worst that is why there has to be awareness and preparation shelters, alarm radios, and individual and community food storage, and information how to survive. Look at ready.gov and some of the civil defense websites in the states. Being self sufficent with food and medicine is the the best insurance. I have supplies stocked up.
6. nuclear defense in israel
debra ,   usa   (05.24.06)
the best defense is a good offensive. america should use tactical nuclear weapons to bomb iran's underground nucear factories NOW, before they get the a bomb. the u.s. can only reach these sites with nukes because they are so far underground conventional weapons are useless. call the white house comment line and voice your opinion-- the number is 202 456-1111.
