I just finished watching it tonight as it was presented for the first time:
After Armageddon: synopsis from History.Com:
What have past acts of destruction taught us about what will happen to mankind after the apocalypse? Is it inevitable that disaster will someday strike America on an unprecedented level? How has history prepared us? History's most dramatic events--Hiroshima, 9/11, Hurricane Katrina and others--are examined and analyzed with hard data gathered from their massive aftereffects. The disappearance of water and food supplies, the effects of deteriorated sanitation and health care on the remaining population, and the increased use of violence as a means of survival--all illustrate how societies have responded and survived.
The people that were interview for their expertise is this film made some very eye opening, valid, and real 'observations' as to what will happen. The 'family' portrayed in this film does exemplify the stereotypical American family. The real world lessons learned just from Katrina are alarming and have been glossed over by the main stream media that has been more intent upon 'blaming Bush' than providing facts to the Nation and The People. 'After Armageddon' is a must see and if schools across this Nation do not show this, then you know your child's school is just a brain washing indoctrination camp for future socialist voters.
The youth especially need to learn really quickly as to a very real and possible scenario for our Nation's future. After Armageddon did present a bit of an 'anti-Christian/Conservative tinge to it via the actions of one small town and portraying another civil war and that is was in the South. But overall, it is a must see show due to the facts put forth on how fast the entire infrastructure will break down, backed by facts via New Orleans/Katrina and other major incidents in the United States.
