1. Also, Saudi Arabia is preparing to be inundated
with nuclear fallout. I just heard this in Sam Seder's show on Air America from one of his guests, I think.

Scary, scary stuff.

3. Umm, how exactly does a country...
"prepare" for nuclear fallout? There is nothing they can do.

I doubt the Saudi royal family would allow the chimp to pollute their "homeland" with radioactive dust that would make it uninhabitable. If fallout were such an easy thing to mitigate, we wouldn't have to worry about dirty bombs.

This doesn't make sense to me, but I wasn't listening to the show. :shrug:

9. Yep, I get that ....
My question was what physical precautions or defensive actions can anyone take in response to nuclear fallout?

How exactly are they "prepping" the country?

6. Petreus beating the war drums too. Saying that he has proof (although showed none) that Iran
was behind attacks in the Green Zone.

Another war conspiracy is afoot.

8. Why are Israeli's saying the same things we are:
"The only such scenario the Israelis envision is if the Democratic presidential candidates appear to be far ahead of their Republican rival and Bush senses a "now or never" strike option."
