  5. If the Third Plane hits the White House?

    No one has ever admitted what the WH bunker is designed to withstand. The best you can find is "survive a "near miss" from a 25mT weapon". The odds are you could survive a direct hit from a jetliner without much difficulty. Supplies, including bottled air, for 30 days would be pretty much an...
