Aia i loko o kahi hōʻike lōʻihi i kapa ʻia Nā Hua o ke Kaua Nuclear i puka mai i Mei o 1979. Loaʻa ākea ia online,.
Makemake au i ka waihona no ka 15 mau kumu kumu kūpaʻa:
- Noho wau ma Charlottesville.
- Aia ka honua i nā lako hoʻolālā e hoʻopau iā ia i nā manawa he nui.
- Ke uku nui nei mākou i ka paleʻana i kēiaʻino i kēia manawa ma mua o ko 37 mau makahiki i hala.
- ʻO nā lāhui'ē aʻe he mau kukui i kēia manawa aʻo ka nui o nā poʻe i kokoke i ka loaʻa iā lākou.
- Uaʻike mākou i kēia manawa e pili ana i kaʻelepani lehulehu nā pōʻino a me nā kuhihewa ua aneane pepehi iā mākou i nā makahiki a pau.
- ʻO India a me Pakistan e hakakā ana.
- Ua kokoke loa ʻo ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa a me Lūkia i ke kaua e like me kā lākou i hala ai i 98 mau makahiki.
- Ke hoʻopukapuka nei ʻo ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa i nā nukes "hou aku hiki ke hoʻohana".
- ʻO kēia kūlana maikaʻi loa o ka Congressional no kekahi kūlanakauhaleʻAmelika i ka wā o kekahi kaua hoʻomehana kaua nui loa.

- ʻAʻole maopopo iaʻu ʻo Charlottesville ka pae hope loa ma ka papa inoa o nā māka no nā missile nukelea. Ma hope o nā mea āpau, home ia no ke kula ʻo JAG Army, ka National Ground Intelligence Center, nā mea hana mea kaua like ʻole, kahi kula nui militarized, a me ka Hūnā ʻo CIA i lalo o ka honua.
- Ua hoʻonohonoho wale ʻo Nā Aupuni Hui Pū ʻIa i nā kūkākūkā no ka makahiki e hiki mai ana o kahi kuikahi honua e pāpā i nā mea kaua nukelea, a he mea kūpono ke hoʻāʻo e hoʻomaopopo i ke kumu.
- Inā ola kākou i ka hoʻohanaʻiaʻana o kaʻike hoʻolālā'elepona, hiki i ka pōʻino o ka makani e wikiwiki a wikiwiki e palekana a hoʻomākaukau paha.
- Ke kāpena Repubalika no ka pelekikenaʻAmelika.
- ʻO ka moho Democratic no ka pelekikenaʻoʻAmelika.
No laila, eia kahi mau mea aʻu e paipai nei iāʻoe e noʻonoʻo:
"Ke hōʻike nei kēia [moʻokāki] i kekahi ma waena o nā hiki, a ma kahi kikoʻī ʻaʻole ia e noʻonoʻo i ke kūlana inā kau ʻia ke kānāwai martial a i ʻole inā ua wāwahi ʻia ka lole kaiāulu i ka anarchy. . . .
“No Wakinekona nā kānaka mahuka, 130 mile ma ka ʻākau, a mai Richmond mai lākou, 70 mile ma ka hikina. Ua hoʻomau kekahi o nā ʻano ʻoʻoleʻa i loko o nā mauna a me nā ana kokoke i Skyline Drive; ua ʻimi ka hapanui i nā hōʻoia o ka lāhui i hiki i ke kūlanakauhale liʻiliʻi ke hoʻolako. . . .
"Ma ke kani o ke kaniʻuhū a me nā leka uila o ka ulia pōpilikia, ʻo ka hapa nui o Charlottesville a me Albemarle County i ʻāwīwī aku ai e puʻuhonua. ʻO ka mea pōmaikaʻi, he koena ko Charlottesville i wahi hūnā no kāna lāhui ponoʻī, ʻoiai ua maʻalahi ka poʻe mahuka i ka molowa. Ua hele aku ka hapa nui i ke kahua o ke Kulanui a me ka hale malalo o nā hale neoclassical kahiko i hoʻolālā ʻia e Thomas Jefferson; ʻo kekahi poʻe i hele i ke kaona no ke keʻena hale kaʻa hale kaʻa. . . .
“ʻAʻole i ʻike ka hapa nui i nā hoʻouka kaua ma Richmond a ma Wakinekona ʻoiai lākou e ʻākoakoa ana i loko o ko lākou mau hale hoʻomalu Akā ka lani i ka hikina a me ka ʻākau o Charlottesville i hoʻomālamalama i ka lā awakea. I ka mua ʻaʻohe mea i ʻike i ka nui o ka pōʻino. . . .
"ʻO ka nui o ka mahele lāʻau [o ka pāhawewe] i nā lā 4 mua he 2,000 mau kī, i pepehi i ka poʻe i hōʻole e manaʻo he pono ka puʻuhonua, a hoʻonui i ka makaʻu o ka make ʻana i ka maʻi ʻaʻai no ka poʻe i pale pono ʻia. . . .
"ʻEkolu mau lā ma hope o ka hoʻouka kaua ʻana, ua ninini nui ʻia ka poʻe mahuka i Charlottesville, a he nui ka hapa o lākou e ʻeha nei me nā ʻōuli mua o ka maʻi radiation. . . .
"Ma hope o ka huli ʻia ʻana, ʻaʻohe wahi kikoʻī o ka poʻe maʻi. Ua ʻākoakoa nui ka poʻe ma waena o ke kaona kokoke i nā haukapila nui ʻelua, e noho ana i nā hale i haʻalele ʻia e nā kamaʻāina kūloko i nā lā ma mua. Me ka pale liʻiliʻi mai ka hāʻule ʻana a ʻaʻohe lāʻau lapaʻau no nā trauma ʻē aʻe, ua nui ka poʻe i make, waiho ʻia ʻole ko lākou kino no nā pule he nui. . . .
"Ua make nā holoholona mahiʻai mālama ʻole ʻia, ʻoiai nā mea i hoʻopaʻa ʻia i nā hale paʻa paʻa pono ʻole me ka hānai kīnā ʻole i loaʻa kahi manawa kūpono e ola ai. ʻO ka hapa nui o kēia mau holoholona mahiʻai, ua nalowale paha, e ʻai wale ʻia e nā mea pakele pōloli a me nā kamaʻāina. . . .
"I loko o ke kolu o ka hebedoma ma hope o ka hoʻouka ʻana, hele a ikaika ka ʻōnaehana rationing hou. Ua hāʻawi ʻia nā kāleka ʻike pilikino i kēlā me kēia kāne, wahine a me nā keiki. Māhele ʻia ka meaʻai ma nā kiko waena. . . .
"I kēia manawa, ua ʻike ke aupuni kūpilikiʻi e nui ana ka pono o ka meaʻai. Me ka mana ʻole no ka pahu hau, ua ʻai nui nā meaʻai; ua pau ka hapanui o nā waihona o nā meaʻai nonperishable. I ka maopopo ʻana o nā hemahema, piʻi ka lani i ke kumukūʻai o nā meaʻai. . . .
"Ma waho aʻe o ka poʻe me nā maʻi radiation radiation, aia kekahi me nā hihia nonfatal a me nā mea i hōʻike i kekahi mau ʻōuli. ʻAʻole hiki i nā kauka ke hoʻomaopopo koke i ka poʻe me ka maʻi flu a psychosomatic radiation. ʻAʻole i lohi ka nui o nā mea maʻi e ʻākoakoa ana i nā keʻena pilikia. . . .
"Ke emi wikiwiki nei ka lako o nā lāʻau i ka lima ma nā haukapila. ʻOiai hiki ke hana maʻalahi ʻia ka penicillin i nā keʻena hoʻokolohua ma ke kula nui, ʻaʻole maʻalahi ka nui o nā lāʻau ʻē aʻe, ʻoiai me ke tālena a me ke akamai. . . .
"Ua hū nā haunaele ʻai ma 4 1/2 mau pule ma hope o ka hoʻouka kaua - hoʻāla ʻia e ka lawe hua nui mua loa o ka palaoa. . . .
"I kekahi lā, me ka ʻole o ka ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo, ua hoʻomaopopo ʻia ka luna o ke kūlanakauhale e hopu ʻia ka hapalua o kāna mau hale kūʻai wahie e ke Aupuni Pekelala, no ka pūʻali koa a no ka hana hou. . . .
"Ma Charlottesville wale nō, ua make he mau tausani mau kānaka i ka hoʻoilo mua ma hope o ka hoʻouka kaua nuklea. . . .
"Ua maopopo inā ʻaʻole e neʻe koke ka hoʻokele waiwai, ʻaʻole paha ia. I kēia manawa ua loaʻa nā hōʻailona ʻaʻole kūkulu hou ka hana ʻana iā ia iho me kahi kokoke i ka wikiwiki a ka poʻe hoʻolālā i manaʻo ai. . . .
"'E ola mākou i ka biologically, akā e ʻike ʻole ʻia ko mākou ʻano o ke ola. I kekahi mau hanauna, e like ana ʻo ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa i kahi kaiāulu medieval i hala. '”
