When emergency situations begin, it is TOO LATE to start to prepare.

To be ready for unexpected disasters is not kooky, it is not ’survivalism,’ it is the duty of all able bodied persons.

 

Steven Harris, of Knowledge Publications, presents a FREE family preparedness audio program for any person or persons that are interested in making readiness a priorty.

Enjoy!

Oh, No–We’re All Going to Die! http://thesurvivalnut.com/2009/04/27/swine-flu-oh-no-were-all-going-to-die/ http://thesurvivalnut.com/2009/04/27/swine-flu-oh-no-were-all-going-to-die/#comments Mon, 27 Apr 2009 16:38:46 +0000 Survival Nut http://thesurvivalnut.com/?p=68 Headline: “DEATH FOR MILLIONS! PANIC ENSUES!”

As usual, the news of the day is hyped beyond all recognition. Is swine flu akin to the deadly influenza pandemic of 1918 (Wikipedia: Spanish Flu)?

Or is it just another scare like the West Nile virus or the Avian Flu?


Shock journalism may have cried ‘pig’ one too many times. Hopefully ’swine flu’ will just be another flash in the pan, and there will be no full blown epidemic.

In the following YouTube video, Steven Harris presents a dark and frightening future–a future that started yesterday!

(Continued below…)

While his predictions may be overblown, he does remind us that static situations can change rapidly. Those that are most prepared are most likely to survive.


I have realized in making my preparations, I really haven’t positioned myself or my family to leave our safehaven (’the doomstead,’ as LATOCers call it).

We are going to work on that next…
