Kuwait Purchases Nearly 6 Million Doses of Emergency Nuclear Radiation Drugs
Deera Chat found an article online which talks about how Kuwait last month purchased nearly 6 million anti-nuclear radiation drugs. The question here is WHY? What exactly are they expecting to happen in the near future??? Here is the link to the news article. [Link] Here is a link to NukePills.com, the website which sells these pills. [Link]
What do these Potassium Iodide pills do? According to NukePills.com:
Potassium Iodide (KI) is used by health officials worldwide to prevent thyroid cancer in people who are exposed to radioactive iodides caused by nuclear reactor accidents and nuclear bombs. It protects against radioactive iodine by preventing its absorption by the thyroid gland located in the neck…
We don’t have any nuclear reactors in the region (I don’t think we do) so that only leaves a nuclear bomb, who would want to nuke us?

because of that?

This is simple, US/Israel can’t afford to attack Iran any more, since they are really broke after the war in Iraq. At the same time, US/Israel has issues with ’minding their own business’ and insecurities is not letting them sleep at peace.
So, US/Israel might just do something fucked up like ‘dropping a Nuke in Iran’ and flush it all away. Dont think that the foreign governments are not aware of the inside plans, they just don’t reveal it to the public to avoid panics and resistance. After all it’s all politics and the whole world participates in this game of horror.
How far is Kuwait from Iran anyways?
*Above is just a prediction*
8. Stafa | February 7th, 2009 at 6:57 pm
We don’t need to have nuclear weapons or reactors in order for us to be in threat of radioactivity. Kuwait is a tiny country, we can be affected from shit coming as far from Israel
9. hilaliya | February 7th, 2009 at 7:01 pm
I wrote about this years ago in the ‘Arab Times’ – Iran is building several nuclear reactors, two prominent ones ‘Ahfaz’ are close to our border. The other one opposite us (’Busheir’) is also a menace. Check the map in the article: http://www.hilaliya.com/2006/04/radiaoctive-dreams-spare-regio-1.html
Why does Iran have to build reactors close to Kuwait and the Gulf? Any earthquake, calamity, war, accident etc can trigger nuclear radiation.
Officials in the Kuwaiti govt. who defend Iran’s rights to ‘peaceful nuclear program’ are guilty of endangering Kuwait and if any calamity should happen they should be held accountable as well.

It was the depleted Uranium Shells that they used to armor piercing rounds for the tanks against Iraqi Tanks in the Gulf War. US Military Base in Kuwait did some testing on the sand up north and seems the problem we have are being exposed!

If you don’t like Nuclear fall out – then GTFO of Kuwait.
26. Khaled | February 7th, 2009 at 11:21 pm
Iran, come on man you should defintly know that they have a Reactor on the coast and that israel is trying to pressure the US into bombing it. Israel might bomb it. Google it.
27. Tekyyak | February 8th, 2009 at 12:06 am
most likely its a hoax, all news sources com from nukepill.com!!!
28. 3azeez | February 8th, 2009 at 1:04 am
Iran has one as far as I understand. And according to your blog, Kuwait is building a nuclear power plant in the coming few years.
29. Nasser | February 8th, 2009 at 1:07 am
Shit just got real.
When we get Vault-tech, I call leader!
30. 3azeez | February 8th, 2009 at 1:09 am
“Nukepills.com is an Internet-based supplier of radiation emergency products that protect against dirty bomb radiation, nuclear reactor accidents and nuclear weapon fallout”
And thats the interesting bit… It means that someone in the ministry of health just googled “nuke pills”, clicked on the first search result, and placed an order of 6 million doses!!
31. 3azeez | February 8th, 2009 at 1:10 am
oh and another silly thing, their website says buy two get one free… does that mean Kuwait will get this offer too? :/
32. TanGo | February 8th, 2009 at 1:26 am

36. 47 | February 8th, 2009 at 3:38 am
Why does everything have to be a big deal!!!!! Never heard of precautions!!!!!
37. qadsia | February 8th, 2009 at 5:17 am
well, they’re expecting something to happen in the next 5 years, cause that’s how long the pills last. they expire after 5 years.
38. Khalifa | February 8th, 2009 at 8:12 am
What I really think is happening is just business, business and business as usual. No nuclear bomb.
I think that’s smart because if you remember the Iraq war in 2003, news was that a possible Bio chemical attack was bound to happened.
At that time, GAS masks then were flooded in the market. Get the picture !
39. mosan | February 8th, 2009 at 9:11 am
1- Iran has nuclear plant
2- Saudi is building a nuclear plant
3- Dubai is building a nuclear plant
just imagine those people running them, an accident is bound to happen
40. Abdullah | February 8th, 2009 at 9:17 am
I would only expect a threat from Iran. Only.
41. Sfsa78 | February 8th, 2009 at 9:45 am
If israel were to bomb iran bushehr nuclear plant like they bombed the one in the middle of Baghdad a few decades ago, then we are in real trouble. Remember, that one was still a building site when israel bombed it.. The
Nuclear plants in iran areup and running with nuclear reactors which will cause highly radio active dust
And debris to reach kuwait in matter of an hour or so depending on wind speed. Remember, the the black smoke from of kuwaits burning oil wells took two days to reach japan!!
42. Salbader | February 8th, 2009 at 11:42 am
To every boby who thinks this is for a new nuclear power plant they might construct tto support the growing demand for electricity, dont kid yourself !
These pills will expire by the time plant gets running…
I believe this is a precautionary step from the Health Ministry just in case matters get out of hand and Demand for these types of pills start Skyrocketing
Hope we wont need them anytime soon !
43. blue*q8 | February 8th, 2009 at 11:49 am
if there was a nuclear fallout in kuwaits nuclear plants .

45. Lucky_Boy | February 8th, 2009 at 2:43 pm
In USA people who live near nuclear power plants (which is common there) are used to stock such drug and the government is forced to keep emergency stocks all the time.
46. Nasser | February 8th, 2009 at 2:52 pm
There is no Vault 101 Roxas.

I stayed in Kuwait during 2003 war (Invasion of Iraq)
Before this date I was healthy, and no cancer history in my family
During the last quarter of 2004 I had Thyroid cancer which I remove by a surgery and remove all the thyroid with it with all the lymph nods in the right side of my neck
After that I had to take the Potassium Iodide pill 2 times in 2004 and 2006
Until today I am following a periodic checkup for this matter in Makki Al Jomaa Hospital (Cancer Hospital).
Govermenal clinic is working daily in 2 shifts for these cases!
The main cause of my cancer is:
the Tomahawk missiles (with disintegrated Uranium) launched from The US war ships in the gulf and hit Iraq in 2003 ,few of these missiles missed their target and hit Kuwait northern desert.
Hope this will give and explanation
50. Ahmed Al-S | February 8th, 2009 at 4:36 pm
READ THIS:
I just got word that Kuwait bought this because they were afraid that if U.S bomb Irans nuclear system, Kuwait would be the closest to the explosion (even closer then Tehran [Irans capital])
51. KoldStare | February 8th, 2009 at 5:47 pm
No Adam, you are the lame one.
52. AbdulKareem | February 8th, 2009 at 7:21 pm
I really doubt the states is going to bomb iran, not with Obama and his cabinet in power now. Assuming things continue the way they are, and Iran doesn’t do anything really extreme, just continues the way it is, then nothing will happen.
53. Nasser | February 8th, 2009 at 9:00 pm
Perhaps we should join forces Roxas…
54. roxas | February 8th, 2009 at 9:01 pm
lamo ok vault 101 will have 2 overseers:P
55. Spotty | February 9th, 2009 at 2:12 pm
Obama in power is the exact reason why!

Fake.
