One Woman's Intuition - Safeguard the Family Now

Nancy Levant

 

It seems that things are heating up over the Iran issue. Too many meetings,

weapons sales, high-level comings and goings that spark a familiarity and one

that bears notice. If Iran is attacked by anyone in the world, and most

especially Israel, American people must take heed. An attack on Iran will bring

consequences to our country. We need to think of our children, grandchildren,

and our senior citizens.

Following 9-11-01, we were gently told to stock up on a few things and to have

supplies for 2 or 3 days. Almost no one paid attention to that governmental

suggestion. Today, I’m going to suggest to my American brothers and sisters to

do far more than stock your kitchen shelves.

 

Iran is and will be a nuclear issue that could snowball. Many Mid-Eastern

countries have nuclear capabilities and we know for a fact that many sleeper

cells exist inside of our nation (thanks to our welcome mat borders and

politicians). We’ve had years of threats regarding the knocking out of our power

grid systems and chemical, biological, and radiological attacks. Iran has

promised retaliation for any attempts to take out her nuclear capabilities.

Therefore, American citizens need to prepare for far more than a 2 or 3-day

period of self-help.

 

I suggest to the citizenry that you stock a minimum 6 to 12-month supply of

goods. Food, water, medicines, prescription medications, pet food, diapers,

wipes, formula, etc., and I also suggest that you have an alternate,

non-electrical heat and cooking source, such as a wood stove, and other fuels. I

suggest that you and your families be prepared to buckle down and burrow in.

 

Please consider buying big bulk items, such as 5 to 6-gallon buckets of staples

- rice, beans, pastas, sugar, flour, soup mixes, powdered milk, honey, wheat,

oatmeal or farina, etc.. Baking powder, salt, cooking oil, and yeast needs to

also be purchased in bulk. I suggest buying fruits and vegetables freeze-dried

or dehydrated in #10 cans, and buy a lot! Also stock up on multi-vitamins. I

strongly suggest that you purchase good garden seeds and enough for two years. I

suggest that you plant fruit trees and bushes – a lot of them. In other words,

be prepared to be off the power grid. As unthinkable as this may seem, it is

highly possible that power grid failures could occur if there is any retaliation

on American soil.

 

There are many, many websites which provide help and calculations for family

food storage needs, but it is easy to figure out what you would need for 6 to 12

months based upon what you now purchase in one or two weeks. By buying in large

bulk, you will save literally thousands of dollars. Though the initial purchases

will be expensive, you will be properly prepared. The last thing you want to do

in an emergency is stand in food and water lines with your children. I also

recently read that power grid failure due to radiological interference could

take up to a year or more to repair. We need to be prepared to care for our

children and our elderly. We need to encourage our extended families and

neighbors to stock up and to make self-sufficiency a priority. Too many of us

live under extremely vulnerable conditions. No heat source if the power goes

out, no extra food or water, no extra prescription medications, no emergency

communication devices, no emergency power or light sources, and a

myriad of other necessities that we now count on others to provide every day.

 

I ask American woman to spearhead the effort within your families, churches, and

women’s groups and to begin, today, to buy bulk food and supplies. Below is a

suggested list for initial purchases:

 

Two or three 5-gallon buckets of each of the following:

 

· Wheat berries · White sugar · All-purpose flour · Powdered milk · Beans (any

kind – main protein source) · Oatmeal or farina · ABC Soup Mix

 

Cooking Oil

 

· 6 gallons · 6 cans vegetable shortening (Crisco)

 

Fruits and Vegetables

 

· 2 cans of “Garden In A Can” (2 full years of home garden seeds) · 3 #10 cans

of each: strawberries, dried banana chips, orange segments, apple flakes or

apple sauce, broccoli, onions, green beans · Buy 6-10 cases each of canned green

beans, corn, potatoes, carrots

 

Non-Perishables

 

· 6 cases of peanut butter (important protein) · 6 #10 cans TVP (Total Vegetable

Protein), Ham, Burger, Sausage, Chicken, Taco, Bacon flavors · Tang, powdered

fruit drink mixes, cocoa mixes · Trail mixes · Hot sauce · Non-condensed soups ·

Canned meats

 

Special Needs

 

 

 

· Good weight-bearing shelving units · Store a lot of extra pet food in large

plastic containers · Supplies and medications for the elderly · Store a lot of

first aid items. Buy one large first-aid kit and buy extras of everything in the

kit. · Buy a car first-aid kit. · Camping equipment and 3-4 extra-large tarps,

bungee cords, rope, camping knives, good hatchet and shovel, rain gear, camping

mattresses. Extra stove fuel.

 

Clothing

 

· Sweat shirts and pants, waterproof shoes, extra gym shoes, extra socks,

waterproof and hooded coats, work and warmth gloves for everyone.

 

Water

 

· The least expensive way to store water is in 55-gallon drums made for water

storage. Bottled water is far too expensive to store for the long term.

Depending on family size and number of pets, you may need 10-20 drums. Begin

with 3 and work up from there. There are many website to help you learn about

proper water storage. · Regular bleach – 10 gallons

 

 

 

This seems like a lot, but when you consider a scenario where grocery stores are

empty and you have no access to the money in your bank accounts, your loved ones

will be far safer with such stores on hand.

 

There is really nothing different about buying food and supplies in bulk minus

the fact that your pay larger sums up-front and very little on a weekly or

monthly basis. But all totaled at the end of the year, you will have saved

thousands of dollars, you will have driven far less, and you will have

safeguarded your families and particularly your children.

 

I also strongly recommend that if you know any LDS families, ask them for advice

on food storage. Most LDS (Mormon) families store food, water, and supplies, and

most are very skilled in the art of food storage, food rotation, and cooking.

 

My instincts tell me that things are heating up and I want American people to be

as prepared as they can be in case of problems. Just think in terms of 6 months

to 1 year and the basic needs of each member of your families– water, food, heat

and cooking, potential medical needs, toiletry and personal needs, elderly

needs, pet needs, and emergency supplies.

Whew! That doesn't sound like very much. They did have access to

running water, as I recall.

It is harsh to think in these terms, but it's not a bad idea to keep

some (lots) dry and canned goods stored.

Having been through so many winter problems here, I'm stocked for

four months...easily, except fo fresh bread and veggies. Not nearly

enough in a war type emergency. Well...maybe not enough bottled water.
