Or course he does. He is an Indonesian Muslim. He has bowed to the Saudi King, the most ruthless intolerant dictator in the Muslim world. As I said above: Once Iran gets deliverable nukes and North Korea perfects theirs, the shitheads of the World will either go Chamberlain or start World War III, beginning in the Middle East. The writing is clearly on the wall.
Once the nuclear genie was out of the bottle, we were destined to self-destruct and no one, including god nor aliens can stop it.
We had a great run, and I'm planning to sit on my upper deck and watch LA go 1,000,000 million degrees and hit us later with fall-out down here in Orange County, not to mention all the services will break down. I won't care about me because of my age. But it will break my heart for my Soulmate and my little doggy to freak out.
I wish you rural folks the best. I'm sure you're prepared, but if you want more info on how small towns survive, buy the Jericho TV series. It gives you much info how to protect yourself against marauders.
Unfortunately, where we live, if we're not destroyed by nukes or fallout (have Iodine tablets), we don't live by rivers or streams, but have a years supply of Mountain House dried foods. Our problem will be with water if the pumps die or the water mains are broke.
Without gasoline, it will be almost impossible to get to the beach and purify ocean water. We'll probably die from dehydration after the bath/toilet water and the water heater tank runs out.
Again, "It's the Same Old Song". Or ironically, "Stayin Alive; stayin alive...ha, ha, ha, ha...stayin alive. Killing myself here...har, har!
Gonna be interesting when the big quake comes or the world goes to shit. We all die.
