It's kind of like the infant putting his or her hand on a hot stove.
The Health Ranger Report.
We are at that moment right now in human history where we, humanity, are putting our hand on the hot stove and we are about to get burned.
It's time for the Health Ranger Report.
And now from naturalnews.com, here's Mike Adams.
Alright, a lot of people are getting concerned about World War III, nuclear war, nuclear attacks, this kind of thing.
And a lot of people are asking me, what do you think?
Is there any legitimacy to this?
We value your view on this.
So here we go.
Welcome to the podcast.
Mike Adams, the Health Ranger.
You're listening to HealthRangerReport.com.
And yes, you should be worried if you live on the West Coast.
Anywhere up and down the West Coast, including Western Canada, could be affected by this.
It all comes down to North Korea having both nuclear, well, bombs, nuclear warheads, and submarines.
We know that North Korea has at least 50 submarines.
They are apparently Soviet-style submarines, which means that I need to correct what I said in a previous podcast.
I thought that their submarines were all a joke and completely out of date.
And while that's true across much of the North Korean military, apparently some of the submarines are like advanced Soviet technology.
So I guess it looks like North Korea has purchased some submarine technology over the last few decades from Russia.
It might be 1970s Russia technology or 1980s Russia technology.
It's hard to say, but it could be that when the Soviet Union fell, that somebody sold some submarines to North Korea.
And maybe some nuclear weapons technology as well.
We probably, we have a pretty good idea that that happened as well.
So in any case, North Korea is sitting on nuclear weapons and submarines.
And apparently some of these submarines have some kind of stealth technology because like a year and a half ago they disappeared.
Nobody could spot them.
At least that's what we're told in terms of Western, you know, Western governments and Western media said suddenly 50 submarines disappeared and we can't find them.
So maybe they have some ability to be undetectable, or I don't know, maybe they're just...
Maybe that's propaganda.
It's hard to say.
It's really hard to say with all these things.
But we do know for sure that they have submarines, and we do know for sure that they have nukes.
So what does that mean to you living on the West Coast?
If you're in California, Oregon, or Washington...
It's only a big deal, frankly, if you're in a city, if you're in a high-density population area, because even North Korea won't, quote, waste a nuke on a rural area.
They probably don't have very many nukes.
It may only be a handful.
It might be five nukes.
It might be ten.
It might be two, for all we know.
It's probably not a big number, so they're not going to go wasting them with a warning shot into eastern Oregon or something like that.
That's not a risk.
Most likely, North Korea, here's what they would do.
They would bring a submarine to within, you know, a missile range of the West Coast, but no closer.
They would hide their submarine out in the Pacific, some deep water mission, you know, and then they would surface long enough just to fire the missile, a relatively short range range.
Let's call it an ICBM, but it's not really that big of an engine, of a motor, a rocket motor.
It's a smaller rocket motor, a smaller rocket probably.
Again, these are educated guesses.
We don't know all of this for sure, but they would launch a relatively short-range missile, which they have.
We know they've been launching these over Japan, frankly.
We know they have those, and the range is the question.
Do they have a range of A thousand miles?
Probably.
Probably so.
And if they have a range of a thousand miles, I mean, remember, one of these rockets achieved an altitude of a hundred plus miles.
Altitude.
So to say that does it have a thousand miles of horizontal range, the answer is probably yes.
How much more than a thousand miles?
It's hard to say.
Can they launch a rocket for two thousand miles?
I don't know.
Maybe they can.
Probably so.
I mean, once you have the basic rocket technology to launch 1,000 miles, there's not that much of an additional burden to launch at 2,000 miles.
You know?
I mean, and these don't go into high orbit either, so these are relatively small rockets, relatively simple as far as rockets go.
In any case, for North Korea to, quote, win this whole game that they're playing, this sick international nuclear war game, They only have to succeed with one nuke.
So if they've got, let's say, 50 submarines, and let's just take a wild guess, and let's say five of them carry nuclear missiles.
It's just a wild guess.
They could launch five at once, and they could target Seattle, Los Angeles, San Francisco, maybe Portland, maybe San Diego, I don't know.
I don't know what their targets are, but whatever.
They launch five at once.
All they got to do to win, you know, to cause serious devastation in America is for one of those to get through.
So you might be asking, does America have anti-missile defenses on the West Coast that could stop those missiles or shoot them out of the sky or something like that?
And I got to tell you, I'm not a military hardware expert, but I don't think we have anything like that.
I don't think...
I know we've got the Patriot missiles that are supposed to shoot down Scud missiles, you know, back from the first Gulf War.
Even those had a horrible rate of success.
I think they missed 8 out of 10 times, something like that.
They were a huge failure.
Every once in a while, they would hit an incoming missile.
You know, Scud missiles, which are Really low-tech, short-range missiles that Iraq had.
So every once in a while, we'd shoot one of the Scud missiles down.
The success rate was very bad.
Again, like 20% success rate.
Something like that.
I'm just going off of memory.
But it wasn't a big number.
So even if you have those on the West Coast, and you try to shoot down these incoming ballistic missiles, the success rate isn't very good.
So if Kim Jong-un is crazy enough, and I'll talk about that in a second, to actually attempt this, knowing that he's going to be destroyed no matter what, but he just wants to destroy America on his suicide mission, then it seems feasible that he could get through our national defenses.
He could evade the submarines.
He could probably launch some nuclear missiles pretty close to the West Coast.
And although his missiles probably don't have the range to go very far inland, like it would be hard to hit Salt Lake City or it would be very difficult to hit Denver or Dallas or Oklahoma City or any place like that, or even Phoenix for that matter, it's probably very easy for him to hit coastal cities like San Francisco or San Diego or any place like that.
So, the risk is real.
North Korea probably has the hardware to succeed in this, and it seems very unlikely that the United States has adequate defenses to reliably stop these attacks once they are launched.
Now, the mental state.
Well, Kim Jong-un is a loony.
He's totally insane.
He's irrational.
That's the most dangerous part of this.
When nuclear weapons are in the hands of rational people, nobody wants to use them.
It's called mutually assured destruction.
And it basically assures that nobody gets hurt because nobody is crazy enough to press the red button.
But Kim Jong-un just might be crazy enough to do that because he's, you know, he's a psychopath.
Well, he's a, you know, his people think he's a god.
He thinks he's a religious leader of a national cult.
And so religious leaders like that, they tend to become suicidal.
Drink the Kool-Aid time for the whole nation, I guess.
Jim Jones, that kind of thing.
I don't know.
What was it called?
Heaven's Gate Cult in California.
When they said that asteroids are coming with motherships or something, those people are crazy.
And so when they have nukes and they have nuclear submarines and they want to destroy America, that's a pretty bad and very dangerous combination.
It's a recipe for real disaster.
If I were you...
I would consider this to be a risk that is above zero.
I can't tell you an actual absolute risk, but it's above zero.
It's not zero.
It's something greater than zero, which probably means if you live on a big city on the West Coast, you might want to think about getting out of Dodge.
Anyway, it's not a good place to be, even for other reasons.
In any case, I hope this has been helpful.
Thank you for listening.
