Barack Obama Warns Americans ‘To Be Prepared For A Disaster’

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Michael Snyder is the publisher of , The American Dream Blog and The Truth

When Barack Obama speaks to the public, it is very rare that he does so without a specific purpose in mind.  So why is he urging Americans “to be prepared for a disaster” all of a sudden?  On May 31, Obama took time out of his extremely busy schedule to deliver an address at the FEMA National Response Coordination Center in Washington.  During his speech, he stressed that every American is responsible for preparing for disasters, and that includes “having an evacuation plan” and “having a fully stocked disaster supply kit”.  These are basic steps that I have been encouraging people to do for years, but if they won’t listen to me, perhaps they will listen to the man currently residing in the White House.  The following excerpt from Obama’s speech comes directly from the official White House website

One of the things that we have learned over the course of the last seven and a half years is that government plays a vital role, but it is every citizen’s responsibility to be prepared for a disaster.  And that means taking proactive steps, like having an evacuation plan, having a fully stocked disaster supply kit.  If your local authorities ask you to evacuate, you have to do it. Don’t wait.

This speech was timed to coincide with the beginning of the hurricane season, although hurricanes have not posed much of a threat lately.

In fact, a major hurricane has not made landfall in the United States for 127 straight months.

But without a doubt, we all need to be preparing for disaster.  Hurricanes can create a short-term emergency that can last for a few days, but there are other threats that could create a major emergency that could potentially last for an extended period of time.  That list of potential threats includes a major volcanic eruption, a natural or engineered pandemic, a west coast earthquake, a New Madrid earthquake, a tsunami on either the east or west coasts, a meteor impact, Islamic terror, war, an EMP burst that takes down the power grid, cyberwarfare, economic collapse, and civil unrest resulting in the imposition of martial law.

Of course the items that I just mentioned are not mutually exclusive.  In fact, in different scenarios we could actually see multiple events happen in rapid succession.

It is interesting to note that during his speech Barack Obama also noted that the American people seem to have become very complacent about getting prepared…

And what we’ve been seeing is some public complacency slipping in; a large portion of people not having preparedness kits, not having evacuation plans.

This is exactly what I have been noticing as well.  There appears to be a tremendous amount of apathy out there, and relatively few people really seem to feel much urgency to get prepared these days.

My contacts in the emergency preparedness industry have been telling me that sales are way down right now.  There was a big peak last fall, but since then it is like interest in prepping has just fallen off the map.

Ultimately, those companies are going to be okay because interest will pick back up shortly as global events begin to spiral completely out of control.  However, of much greater concern is the fact that people have not been using this period of relative calm constructively.

Just like we have seen in Venezuela, time to prepare eventually runs out.  And someday there will be millions of parents that are absolutely horrified when their children come to them crying out for food and they don’t have anything to give to them because they didn’t heed the warnings and they didn’t get prepared.

When that day arrives, many of those families may be forced to turn to whatever help the government is offering at the time.

One more thing that I found particularly noteworthy about Obama’s speech was that he said that there is now “a FEMA app” that can direct you to the nearest “FEMA shelter” in the event of a major emergency.

If you need information about how to put together an evacuation plan, how to put together a disaster preparedness kit, as Craig said, we’ve got an app for everything now.  We have a FEMA app in English and in Spanish to help you prepare your family for a disaster.  You can update the National Weather Service alerts.  You can get safety tips for more than 20 kinds of hazards.  It provides you directions to nearby shelters.

Could you envision yourself and your family having to take refuge in a “FEMA shelter” someday?

If not, you should do what you can to get prepared now.  Over the next couple of days, my wife and I will be releasing a couple of new videos about preparation on our YouTube channel.  I hope that many of you will check them out.

Unlike Venezuela, it looks like we may still have a little bit more time to prepare for what is ahead.  Some people will relax and use this time to party, but those that are wise will work diligently and will do what they can to get ready for the exceedingly challenging times that are rapidly approaching.

Hopefully you are listening to the warnings and are heeding what the watchmen are saying.

If not, the consequences for what will happen to you and your family will ultimately be on your own hands.

      Yet they condemn preppers as terrorists? Step right up folks! Watch the carnival freak speak out of both side of his face!

      • Equalizer

        Words directly out of that “treasonous turds” mouth. What a hot steaming pile of crap this POS is. Completely removes our borders to allow the vermin in.

    • Redlist Renegade

      Actually he’s an AMAZING ventrillaquist ! He lies out of both sides of his ass at the same time while farting “Yankee Doodle Dandy” in unison !!!

        Obama ; ‘I know that think that you heard what it was that I said when I said it before but I’m not really sure what it was that you think that you heard is what it was that I actually meant to say….when I said it that is” !!!

    • 2QIK4U

      But i thought they wanted to make prepping and growing your own food illegal? This doesn’t add up :roll:

      • Geeper

        They want people to invest just enough effort that the government doesn’t have to help them out. And no more.

    • King of Shambhala

      Obama’s the Antuichrist and I’m the Messiah. Check it out.

    • TuffENuff

      … but didn’t the government just state that preppers are The Crazy People, conspiracy theorists, domestic terrorists….?

      This is surely another glitch in the matrix we’re witnessing.

      Don’t worry though, if you fail to prepare, Big O is all prepared to place you in the nearest FEMA camp.

    • Pink Slime

      You should always be prepared. Don’t listen to a bonehead stuttering negro sodomite or a communist Democrap. They don’t have your best interest in mind.

      Be independent, be prepared as much as you can. That is what your Constitution is all about. Not to rely on government or at least what it has become.

      A sanctuary of VULTURES and RUBBISH that seems to only attract the distasteful lawyer that even Yahusha had no respect for.

      Piece of Advice About Storms Learned From Experience —
      If your area does get hit with a Hurricane or Tornado, take my advice and let professionals make the repairs to your home if necessary. Back in 2004 when 4 Hurricanes hit us within just a few weeks I lost 1/2 of my roof and I was determined to replace the roof myself. Unfortunately my roof had a fairly sharp pitch/angle to it and on about my 200th trip across the roof with a pack of shingles on my shoulder I stepped on the corner of a blue tarp that had dew on it and my feet went out from under me and down I went about 20ft and shattered my right leg. I had to get 3 plates and 15 screws put in and it actually took 8yrs to completely heal. The man sharing my hospital room was on his roof cutting down tree limbs when the saw slipped and cit off his right foot at the ankle. So please save yourself a lot of pain, frustration and money and let the pros do the work.

      I read somewhere that they say the elite are gentlemen . They warn you before things happen with movies , articles , speeches or whatever to let the people know what their plans are . But they don’t directly say what is going to happen . It is hinted at . Why ? Because they know the people out number them and that if they thought the elite were planning massive deaths , they would rise up and stomp them into eternity . All this global warning crap is part of the hoax . Volcano and earthquakes are not controlled by smog . How stupid for anyone to believe this . I challenge everyone to go out on a clear night and find the big dipper . Look at it at sun down . Then at 9:00 pm , then at 11:00 pm . And if you can go further into the night , every 2 hours . It is wobbling around the sky . The bottom of the pan points at the little dipper or north star at the north pole . The little dipper is not in the north sky ! It is wobbling around the earth east to west . I have watched it for several years after the earthquake that went up and down the east coast of America to Canada . The little dipper slowly began moving southwards but in a rotation pattern , east to west . Now the little dipper has moved across the sky so that it is now not visible in the early evening . It will be rising in the east in the early dark morning hours and be moving westwards . As time proceeds it will make its way towards the evening hours . The earth is now wobbling as the bible said it would . Soon it will real to and fro like a drunk man as it flips poles . This will tare land masses apart . Some Islands will sink , new Islands will rise . Mountains will fall . Any fault line in existence will break and crack possibly dividing land masses . America will not look like it does now . Volcanos will erupt , right now 40 are erupting . Earthquakes are growing in magnitude daily . Weather patterns have gone haywire . According to when the great earthquake the bible seeks about will happen , from what I understand is when the NWO and UN jump on Israel and Judea . Israel is the lost tribes run by Ephraim and Manasseh his brother , they are Joesph’s sons . And tracing their moves puts them in America , Europe and Australia . They are the White people . Judea’s leaders are also white people . They are in the land Israel . There is a plan by the NWO , Vatican , natzi who is Esau’s descendants and the UN , Muslims who is Ishmaels descendants to destroy Israel and Judea . Both are jealous of Jacobs 13 tribes of Israel . Israel is the name GOD gave Jacob . On Jacobs deathbed he gave his name to Joseph’s sons Ephraim and Manasseh . Judea was given the kingship over them all . But Solomon went after other gods , so GOD took 10 tribes from Judea and gave the kingship to Ephraim . Judea was left with 3 tribes . They fought each other . Babylon over took them because both kings were now worship other gods . The 10 tribes of Ephraim were shipped all over the known world . Many were taken to Europe and later came to America . 2700 years ago they were removed from Israel . GOD promises to bring them back home when the end times comes . Do a internet search on GODs name and Ephraims name on the mountains of Israel . This is to remind GOD to bring them home . But first Judea would go home . They got to stay in Israel until Rome later conquered them 2000 years ago . They ran to Europe . This is when the wars once again started between Israel and Judea . The war of the roses ! The white rose and the red rose clan . Then in America the civil war . The rebel flag represented the 13 tribes in X their Messiah . There was not 13 colonies then , only 11 . Ephraim was in the north and Judea in the south . After the civil war Judea began returning back to Israel like GOD said they would ( 1948 ) . In Isaiah 17 it says when Damascus becomes a ruinous heap Ephraim will loose his fortress . The debate is Ephraim is Europe , but some say America . Right now Europe is loosing ground to the radical Muslims let in by the NWO leaders of their country . America is also suffering from this because of the Muslim that swore in on the Koran to become leader of the USA . He is bringing them in without processing them . There are murders , Isis , thieves , rapist and GOD knows what else . So against the bible is coming true , because Damascus one of the oldest cities on earth has never been a ruinous heap until now . Everything is lining up ! So I guess we are being told that we are about to be attacked by troops already in America ( Russian , over 150,000 , UN , Muslim troops landing in our army bases now and by Isis radicals which also include Muslim compounds already up and working in the USA . World war 3 is about to start . So is the great earthquake that will shake the world when they cross the line GOD has drawn against them . GOD has called out the Edomite , Esau as being in the line of HIS wrath , because of the evil they are about to do to GOD’s people . Obama is not black ! He has White ( A) Asian ( B) and negative ( Reptilian according to science ) blood ( AB negative ) . Type O is where the black come from . (Noah’s son Ham ) Hams son Canaan was mark black because Ham raped his dad ! Ham was a white type O blood type . Obama has the same blood that the Egyptian Phareos had . Some say he was cloned ( with the DNA of the Phareo Moses dealt with ) on a ship in the ocean , because it was not legal on land . So our Muslim leader has been working to destroy Israel ( America and Europe ) this is also one of the bible predictions before the great earthquake . He shall decieve Israel and sell them out . Why do you think they have dug holes in the earth and stocked them with everything imaginable . They have been getting ready for Israel’s and Judeas destruction . You better not go to the FEMA camps . Your Muslim leader has order 30,000 guillotines waiting for your arrival . The only advise I can give you is what the bible says , pray that you be found worthy to escape those things that are coming upon the earth and be able to stand before the son of man whom the bible says will protect , teach and feed the chosen .

      The Bible says that ” the meek shall inherit the Earth” that means that there will be survivors, those who seek to distance themselves from government and society, those that still have morals and values and seek nothing more than to raise their families that they love in peace. Like the Bible says again “let those with ears hear and eyes see” they will know when the times are ending down, he also said to “go into the wilderness” away from cities and towns. Those people in their bunkers …most will not survive…no matter how big or armored they are because most built them in really stupid places.
