What do you think?

I've started a survey to get your thoughts about the possibility of an imminent attack on U.S. soil.

Yesterday the news was talking about bin Ladin again and how he's managed to elude the US and rebuild his network of terrorist followers. According to the news the threat level is even higher and those in the various think tanks believe that there is a definite danger.

That having been said, no real warning was given. People were not advised to make any kind of preparations, not even for food or water!

My advise to you? If the government thinks there might be danger of an attack, yet fails to tell you to prepare, then you'd better take it upon yourself to do whatever it takes to protect you and your family. Water and food are the two items which are necessary for survival. They are also the two easiest items to gather and store against a future need.

A Gut Feeling?

Today the Director of Homeland Security said that he had a "gut feeling" that the United States may experience some kind of terrorist attack this summer. I also heard the word "nuclear" and "transportation". There was also some question about how much was really a certainty being disguised as a "gut feeling".

Whether you call it a "gut feeling", "intuition" or "paranoia" there are some people that are convinced that sooner or later there will be a nuclear incident in this country. Whether the incident would be limited to one place, or would be a well-planned, coordinated attack occuring in multiple locations at one time is just a matter of guess work.

However, given the propensity of the enemy to want the most "bang for their buck", even a seemingly localized incident could have far-reaching effects. For instance, the 9/11 attacks in New York, caused job layoffs in Texas (and elsewhere). The effects were not just limited to NYC.

If you haven't made any survival preparations, now would be a good time to see about preparing for the survival of your family. After all, if you are a good parent, chances are that you have a life-insurance policy that would help your family survive in the event of your death. Isn't it just as important that you do what you can to guarantee their survival in the event of a wide-spread terrorist attack?
