While interesting, the guidelines here are that you must provide some commentary with the original post. This way a discussion can be started by you rather than the possibility of tossing out a red herring for trolling.

Please attempt to follow the rules next time.

Many very interesting facts.

26. Number of secret Presidential Emergency Facilities built for use during and after a nuclear war: more than 75

Notice this now...

Number of CIVILIAN Emergency Facilities built for use during and after a nuclear war: 0

Russia meanwhile is building a vast network of civilian Emergency Facilities. Why? Because they are doing exactly what is required to withstand a nuclear counter-attack from the USA. While America ships it's industry overseas Russia moves theirs underground. Not all of it of course. But what is needed to out survive the USA.

Another number not on the list is how many billions the USA just gives away free to Russia, so they will 'properly" dismantle a bunch of their obsolete nuclear missiles. Get this. While they spend their owm money on modern attack (SSN) and ballistic missile (SSBN) submarines). And Russia's new super new sea launched nukes are also in full production.

What madness is that?

If you want to know everything about nuclear weapons 50 is just a great start.

civilian Bomb Shelters went out with the 50's. More than 75 may have been built, but the most widely known and formerly most secret is the Greenbrier Bunker which has since been decomissioned. I don't think Russia is aiming to nuke the US...

Neither do I, but do you know that they aren't?

lol, nope, but frankly I'd rather be vaporised immediately rather than live in a radio-active planet earth. In either case, I would be more worried about the Russians having an accidental firing than them starting a Nuclear war.

If that's your viewpoint, I sure hope you supported the war in Iraq. 😛
