August 17th Bunker Index - The Return of the Bunker!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, I'm back after a brief productive break. Miss me? Some of you did more than others, I'm sure.

I'm changing up the format of the BI report slightly. It was getting too time consuming to keep track of all the previous issues, and in addition many of the issues were becoming permanent as we now continue to face a "new America" with each passing day. Henceforth I will just be wrapping up the latest news items into a daily briefing for you. This saves me time and allows us to share more commentary on just those specific new items.

In today's stories, the economy continues to worsen and the government continues to tighten its tyrannical grip. The political season seems to have started early as well, but I don't know that I find that unusual. Obama's latest polling numbers have garnered him the title of "most unpopular president EVER" and so lots of potential candidates are thinking that 2012 may be their best shot. Recent polls indicated that the Republican party could just about run a 3 day old cadaver against him and still win. I see this as bad news considering that many of these Republican candidates have just as bad of pro-tyranny records as Obama does.

As we drift towards the election, we need to be prepared for civil disturbances on a scale equal to or greater than what Britain recently suffered. Many agitators are moving among the population now to stir up racial violence and class warfare enmity, with the chief agitator casting out commentary to fuel the fire and his attorney general refusing to prosecute those caught committing racial violence. Gather in your friends and relatives and make it known to them that they have a safe place to retreat to, or if you're in the other situation, make sure YOU have a safe place to retreat to.

Make sure you have plenty of food on hand, as well as plenty of ammunition. Remember, in England it wasn't the government that managed to stop the rioting. It was strong and determined men armed with makeshift weapons (all their government will allow) who met the rioters on the street and said, "You will not pass."

Remember Gandalf's warning: "They are coming."




1. Ohio non-Union business owner shot by union thugs in his home. He was doing well with his non-Union electrical contracting business and making money. His electrician union competitors had priced themselves out of business while he was able to buckle down and charge what he needed to in order to bring in the business. Expect more of this.

2. Solar flare activity has increased - NASA holding a press conference tomorrow around 2pm EST. I can't recall ever having solar flares becomes so serious that they had to hold a press conference to tell us about it.

3. Germany and France are proposing a collective government. Remember the last time this was tried? When one side tried to break away the other side invaded them and touched off a World War.

4. Dog thefts are up 32% this year with large breeds being stolen for illegal dogfighting or used in the least ethical of lab experiments. For many of us, our dogs are companions and coworkers on our farms. Losing a working sheepdog, for example, could mean many additional hours of labor as you try to replace him/her.

5. In Florida, a Polk county school board is taking flak for their decision to not allow a white brother and sister to attend the same school because keeping the siblings together leaves less room for minority students. School board chair is quoted as saying, "To me, diversity is just as important as family, in my opinion."

6. TSA has a new program in their behavior detection arsenal. TSA officers will be asking passengers a few personal questions and reluctance to answer or what the officer feels are signs of discomfort will get you referred to "secondary screening" or reported to law enforcement. Because when Americans decided to just stoically bear being fondled by government agents as a condition of travel, the government decided to push the envelope even further and now wants to know what's in your head as well. Now you won't just be physically violated at the airport, but mentally as well.

7. Various U.S. cities are now adopting new building codes to prepare for "climate change", the new (and still discredited) scheme from Al Gore and his merry band of climatologists. At a time when businesses are struggling and American cities are already suffering the effects of a collapsing economy, they're now to be saddled with new regulation stemming from a discredited and fraudulent movement.

8. In Britain, MI5 has been called in to decrypt and analyze text messages between the cellphones of citizens who were believed to be involved in last week's rioting. Formerly the powerful spy agency has only been used against foreign countries (and the subjugated Irish). Is this a precursor of things to come here in the United States?

**Note from Sonshine** Ernie is a member of Homesteading today forum and has been kind enough to start posting a "Bunker Index" for those who are trying to find out what is going on and what to be prepared for. I asked his permission to post them here for our members and was granted permission as long as I gave credit to Homesteading Today and to Ernie, which I have no problem with. For those who are not members of Homesteading Today, I encourage you to check them out. There's a lot of information there from people in all walks of their homesteading journey. Many of our members are also members at HT. My main reason for starting this forum was because I liked HT, but thought some could benefit from a similar site that was based on Christian principals.

Dawn, Ernie usually posts every day, and I'm going to try to re-post it here for our members. He gets his news from various places that the main stream media doesn't tell us about.

Things are getting bad all over, not just in America, and it's only going to get worse.

Ok, he's not here right now. He's at the neighbors taking them a trickle charger.

Thanks for sharing Ernie's posts, love the valuable information he shares.

He does a great job of digging up news stories that I believe is good to know about. Hope everyone here will get into discussing these news stories.

Due to too much drama where he was posting it, and feeling God leading him in other directions, Ernie has moved his Bunker Index to his own blog. He's also working on finishing a book he had started. Here's the link to his blog:

I will continue to post the BI index as he posts them and would encourage those who are interested to join his blog and follow him. He's got his eyes open and is watching what is going on in the world.

Some people wonder why a Christian would be interested in this. The Bible is pretty clear about how we should be as wise as serpents and as gentle as doves. In order to act with wisdom we need to be aware of how the enemy is working and be prepared. This is why I like reading the bunker index. I can't scan all the news sources, but others do a pretty good job. I use to watch Glen Beck for the same reason.

I just joined to follow it. I find google's capabilities to track you as disturbing as what Cisco did for China....Yup...creepy and disturbing.

Everything we do online leaves a footprint, so the powers that be already know who the Christian preppers are. I figure we have two options, continue until we are no longer able to and in the process try to help our brothers and sisters in the Lord. Or we can go into hiding and stay out of the loop. I figure this is too important to not keep up with.
