US is also preparing for possible disasters: creating a 20 000 US-Land army to crash the crowds !

It could be flood-related, since Holland lies on quite low-set lands (look it up, the'y be at huge risk of flooding if sea levels rose beyond 1 foot).

Otherwise I'd say that, since this is the only real visionary Government makind has created (record low teenage pregnancies; controlled (in comparison to other nations) drug culture and sex industry; not to mention tourism - earning billions in taxes every year; eco-frienly public transport - to name a few policies), you could argue that if any Government was to warn its' citizens of pending disaster (and thus break form the norm fo every other nation on earth hiding it from their people) - Holland would be the only one that did.

Maybe they are warning you that the BackStreet Boys are together again.
It is called Diaster Preperation. Lose Power in the coming winter and it will get COLD.

Relax.

AWESOME! I was thinking almost exactly the same thing, but I would have substituted for Menudo.

I am getting the feeling they really don't care about me......I am saddened..........

I think you have that backwards.. if they did tell you, you'd most likely be DEAD from the rioters in about two hours.. (one if you have a hot wife)

who supplies Gas and Electricity to the Dutch....

It was about Denk vooruit [think forward] just a bunch of governmentpeople need to get paid so they have to assemble those packages, like we had Melkert banen..And Fox likes to make a fool of us again, whats new..

IMHO, I wouldn't read too much into this. Back in the days of the Cold War, Americans saw tons of films and literature about how to protect yourself from a nuke or stuff like that. They didn't have any proof of threats, but they new it could happen, and wanted people to be safe (ha, how the world changes, eh?).

And with 1 CCTV camera for every 17 people, with a population of 60 million, you can count Gordon Brown out too, heheheh!

In the past few years we have had experts say the weather is changing, now why I do not know, and we now also have a banking disaster in the making and going strong.

I my self do not find this out of sorts , it just sounds like you have a government that is taking a pro active stance on this and getting people to think just in case something happens, Yes it could be something that we do not know. But who can tell.
Either way it just sounds smart to get ready in case something happens.
