2024: Most Americans are Totally Unprepared for War

World War 3 continues to escalate today, on the first day of 2024, as the Red Sea is quickly turning into a full blown Naval War.

Iran has reportedly now deployed a war ship to the Red Sea.

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The Iranian Navy has dispatched a destroyer to the Red Sea as part of the flotillas that take part in regular missions in international waters.
The Alborz destroyer, operating as a military vessel of the 94th flotilla of the Iranian Navy, crossed the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait and entered the Red Sea on Monday.

The Iranian Navy has set up three ocean commands supervising naval missions to the Indian Ocean, the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean.

In a meeting with a number of commanders and officials of Iran’s Navy in November 2022, Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei stressed the need for the Navy to bolster and maintain its presence in international waters.

The Leader also emphasized the need for the Navy to boost its combat capabilities and defense equipment and to continue navigation in remote and international waters. (Source.)

Americans today, perhaps more so than any other nation in the world, have had little to no experience of surviving war on their homeland. World War 2 saw many Americans deployed to Europe where many families suffered the loss of loved ones, but only in Pearl Harbor in Hawaii were there any attacks by foreign military forces on U.S. soil.

The attacks in New York City on September 11, 2001, were the closest thing to being in the middle of a war that most Americans living today have ever experienced, and I (along with many millions of others) do not even believe those were attacks by foreign enemies, but a false flag attack by our own government.

And that was 22 years ago, a distant memory for most, and for those under the age of 23, they were not even born yet. But it had a profound effect on the emotional health of Americans, as the commercial airline traffic was shut down nationwide for days, as fear ruled the nation for weeks.

But a full scale war with continual bombing into key cities or military establishments has never been seen in the history of the United States, only outside the U.S., with the U.S. military being the primary force continually bombing other countries since at least the 1970s with the Vietnam War.

So what we have today in the U.S. is a population who has for the most part never seen the full devastation of war, except in the world of virtual reality via their TVs and Internet devices.

I, myself, have seen the full devastation of war, being in Southeastern Turkey in 1991 when Saddam Hussein attacked the Kurds in northern Iraq, sending tens of thousands of refugees across the border into Turkey. I headed a relief project, being fluent in Turkish, out of the city of Diyarbakir, and transported medical teams down into northern Iraq to deal with the casualties.

The victims of war were not simply poor villagers, but people from all walks of life, including professionals such as doctors, business executives, and many others. War doesn’t care what your status is in society, as the bombs kill CEOs, lawyers, and doctors just as effectively as they kill street people and beggars.

I was a child growing up in the 1960s where everyone in the U.S. seemed to have an attitude of expectation that we could be bombed at anytime during the “Cold War,” and we even had drills in school about what to do if we were bombed. Bomb shelters were still common back then, during the “Cold War.”

But I fear that most Americans today think the U.S. is untouchable, that a full scale war with constant bombing of our cities and infrastructure here in the homeland is not possible, and only happens in the movies.

This makes the United States a very dangerous place to be here in 2024. Most of the people in this country who have experienced what real war is like, are the multitude of migrants crossing our border in record numbers every day.

They, along with many poor Americans who have learned how to survive in our major cities by exiting “the system”, often living on the streets, are already experts on “urban survival”. In the largest cities, there is already an alternative economy and “resistance” movement, run by drug cartels and ethnic gangs. They will probably take over most of the major sections of the major cities in a worst-case scenario, as they will simply take everything away from the rich who will quickly perish or go away to Government refugee camps, run by FEMA.

Then on the other end of the spectrum are the “North of Richmond” and “Don’t try That in a Small Town” people, along with preppers, in the rural areas far from the cities. If they learn how to work together and pool their resources, they too will probably learn how to survive in a worst-case scenario.

In between these two segments of the population, are the suburbanites. This group is perhaps the most vulnerable, because many of them (falsely) believe they are safe from the evils of the big cities, having chosen to raise their families there, where they can still benefit from the luxuries of the big cities, while avoiding the street people, gangs, and all the other “evils” of the big city.
