I wish I was as good at predicting lotto numbers.

Iran is supplying Russia with ballistic missiles, Russia is helping Iran with building a bomb. Palestine is still in flames, Israel is lobbing bombs into Syria and Lebanon, Vlad is saying he considers himself at war with NATO if storm shadows are fired into Russia and the Ukraine keeps being a modern day Verdun.

If society is still about in ten years from now, we will be lucky.

It doesn't look good, does it. It's the same trouble spots that have been going for a long while, but they're all "hotter".

Looks like the Norwegians are taking the threat seriously and asking citizens to prepare a week's worth of supplies.

I'll not link any specific news article, it's available from your favourite internet serch providers...

I commend the idea of these government preparedness advice, but they'd get misconstrued in the UK and induce panic.

Thanks for the links. Yes, even the sensible suggestion by our Government to stock up for 3 days, although too little, caused unnecessary concern. I think FEMA in the US and US citizens in general may be more grounded about prepping on the whole.
