Guest shiloh357 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 I just can't imagine the fear and terror of thinking a potential nuke is headed your way and there is really no protection from that. A single nuke would wipe out the entire entire Hawaiian Island group, not just the main Island. I mean, you would be scared to death. And then find out, "Oops, we're sorry, it was just a mistake." That would be hard to recover from after about 40 minutes of thinking your life was over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This "error" wasn't like some accidentally hit the button with their elbow when getting up to get a cup of coffee. It is a button on a computer screen that you have to move your mouse over and click on it. And most buttons like that would have a pop up message like, "do you really want to perform this action?" And then you have to answer yes or no before the action is taken. So I am skeptical that this was just an accident, but I am open to being wrong. 2 Quote So I am skeptical that this was just an accident I'm very skeptical too about this. I know there are people with mental health problems in positions they should not be in ( Can't get into this ) But how to prevent something from happening again? A mental health test can be deceiving as somebody can give the right answers but is mentally unstable,we live in a very scary world where our only hope is in God,everything what used to be wrong is now explanable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would Israel have been prepared for something like this? We don't see everything in the news what happened when the people heard about this, must have been very chaotic !

I have had a couple of people already tell me the same thing...that they don't believe it was an accident. In any case, the powers that be need to get a handle on such things quickly. Those poor people were terrified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a technical issue, but an organizational one in which a single state employee could trigger a nuclear alert without the approval of am immediate supervisor or other overseer.

It is both a technical and a organizational issue. And the person who double-clicked on the alert button needs to be fired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simply replacing the employee without addressing the failure of the state's organizational chart will just result in another incident somewhere down the road.

Maybe "the individual in question" should be named "employee of the month" for exposing a very broken civil defense system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
