Eight-three year old Fidel Castro has finally after four years made several public appearances. The elderly retired Cuban leader has been making his rounds in Cuba lately, appearing on the National Television station. These public appearances come at a time when not only has the Cuban government decided to release 52 of their political prisoners, but also as he bestows a grime prediction on the western world. The former Cuban leader's predictions center upon the world being on the threshold of a nuclear conflict.
Castro clarified that war in the near future is an eminent prospect as the United States and Iran continue their conflicts over the proposed international sanctions currently placed upon Iran as a result of their nuclear activities. In his newspaper column, which he published Sunday evening, Fidel explained why he was coming out of seclusion and once again making public statements. He explained that his purpose was to warn the international authorities as to what was going to occur. He contends that he has reached his conclusion as a result of his personal observations of American and his countries past blockades.
Although few international countries are paying much attention to Castro's assertions it is interesting that his statements would be made at a time when Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has proclaimed that Iran is currently very close to developing their nuclear weapons. Medvedev made these comments as he addresses a group of foreign ambassadors at a recent meeting in Moscow.
A simple solution to forestall these undesirable predications could hinge on our actions. In effect we could perhaps strengthen our argument here by merely offering to assist Iran in the construction of thorium reactors instead of the usual uranium types. It would stand to reason that if Iran's claims to peaceful uses for nuclear power is valid then they would not object to giving up their goals for uranium or plutonium enrichment, however if they actually do have ulterior motives such as a bomb then the world wide community can readily see this.
Although Israel has never openly admitted that they posses any sort of nuclear power we do know that several of their spies had been caught and dealt with accordingly. Assuming that they do possess these bombs, in order to put the icing on the cake, perhaps Israel would agree to forgo their nuclear arsenal as well. In this way conceivably the race to develop nuclear weapons in the region could be relinquished.
Unfortunately, being a realist, I do not foresee any of this coming about since Iran has repeatedly promised to destroy Israel in the near future. It only stands to reason then that Castro's predictions could definitely happen. As preppers we must take this information seriously. Granted it may be a false alarm but the consequences of ignoring the precautions are much too grave to risk. Stock up, store up and be prepared!
