California Prepares for a North Korean Nuclear Attack

[Mystic Wanderer]

Sigh...  

I have to wonder if Trump will allow it to get this far, but it never hurts to be prepared.

With U.S. President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un trading insults and threatening war, California officials are taking the threat of nuclear exchange seriously.

Noting the heightened North Korean threat, the Los Angeles-area Joint Regional Intelligence Center issued a bulletin last month warning that a nuclear attack on Southern California would be “catastrophic” and urged officials in the region to shore up their nuclear attack response plans.  

The report cites North Korea’s late July test of an intercontinental ballistic missile that could, in theory, reach the West Coast of the United States. “North Korea’s propaganda videos feature ruins of San Francisco and Washington,” the document says.
The 16-page “Nuclear Attack Response Considerations” bulletin is dated Aug. 16 and marked for “official use only.” It was circulated last month to Los Angeles-area local, state, and federal agency personnel and also throughout the Department of Homeland Security and other federal agencies across the country.

The idea behind the unclassified report was to share planning and guidance with as wide a distribution as possible, according to two officials involved in responding to a nuclear strike and who received the bulletin. Many agencies are involved in responding to an attack and are often staffed with personnel without access to classified information.
DHS did not respond to requests for comment.

Much of the information in the report is based on well-known facts about the effects of a nuclear blast, including the effects of radiation, the possibly of an electromagnetic pulse disabling communications, and the destructive effects of the initial blast on human life and infrastructure.  

Citing figures from the Rand Corp., the report says a nuclear blast at the Long Beach Port could cause more than $1 trillion in damage, including loss of life and destruction of homes and infrastructure.

In a section on “radiation protection basics,” the report offers a primer on what to do during a nuclear attack. “Lie face down and place hands under the body to protect exposed skin,” it recommends. “Remain flat until the heat and shock waves have passed.”
There are also sections explaining the basic mechanisms of a nuclear blast as it occurs and discussion of specific things expected to happen in the event of a nuclear attack that should be considered and prepared for in advance.

It also warns of the difficulties government authorities would likely encounter in dealing with the aftermath of a blast. The public will need to evacuate, the report says, but with “limited understanding of radiation risks, they will experience high anxiety and may be non-compliant.”

Challenges with contamination spread by pets and through clothing are among the many public health and logistical coordination issues spelled out for potential emergency responders.

“The consequences of a nuclear attack in Southern California would be catastrophic,” the report says. “Nonetheless, government entities and first responders are expected to remain operational to preserve human life, maintain order, and aid in the recovery process.”

The report, which is largely directed at local, state, and federal agencies and first responders located in the Los Angeles region, notes that the federal government will likely be of limited help immediately after a nuclear blast.

“[T]here will be no significant federal assistance at the scene for 24-72 hours following the attack,” the bulletin says.

Bullshit .... if anything kommiefornia getting ready to welcome lil fatty kim III ......

1. They wouldnt know what the hell to do first .....
2. Wouldnt be any loss if lil fattys rocket did hit kommiefornia ....

2. Wouldnt be any loss if lil fattys rocket did hit kommiefornia ....

I would agree, except for the radiation that would spread to neighboring states.

I have lived long enough to have see the "end of the world" storys, start of WW3 storys, and "the situation is critical "storys. So if the world is going to end or WW3 is to start dont wake me up, just get it over with.

AHAHAAAHAAHAHAHAAAHAHAHAAA!

HAHHAAAAHHAAHHHAHAHAHHHAHAH!

"Catastrophic", they say?

AHAHAAHAAHAHAHAHAAHAAHAHAHAH!

Maybe to Southern Californians within a couple miles of the strike, but that's about it... and, honestly, can someone name me a single thing that the rest of the world could not do without that exists only in SoCal?

Bring it on, Little Rocket Man! Do the world a favor, erase SoCal as well as you can. That's ONE way to force them to make good on their promise to secede from the US - they bragged, but if they ain't gonna do it, force their hands and MAKE 'em leave - one way or another!

That depends entirely on whether Little Kimmie wants to maximize destruction or maximize radiation - can't do both in the same blast. If you maximize one, the other is minimized. Basic physics of nuclear explosions.

I'm guessing he'd rather maximize destruction, because a radioactive cloud floating along and getting weaker by the second is far less dramatic than wide-spread ruins, and LOTS easier to rebuild from.

@"Ninurta",

That's a let down.     Only a couple of miles? I'd like to get rid of the whole state! 

Make'em leave?     But...but, that would mean they would probably trickle into other states. I'd rather keep all the "really crazies" together in one place. We have enough "regular crazies" already without adding them into the mix.
At least we can hope they will still secede.
