   "to escape from the repulsive illusion most people live in"

   The repulsive illusion is how many idiots reside in the US.

   "Except, I'm not *totally* sure how to go about doing this."

   If you're not totally sure….well good luck.

   "I do have months of experience in the outdoors"

   MONTHS of experience?? Wow!

   "less then two months combined of winter camping"

   Winter camping? Where, in the back of dad's station wagon?

   How do you intend to get your gun(s)/knive(s) on the plane?

   You said you didn't want anyone to tell you not to do it. So I didn't.

   Oh wait, I see, you're 5-9 & 155lbs. Its definitely OK then. Have at it!

   dewclaw knows what she's talking about!

   By the way, surely you were aware of these incidents- right?

   ISRAEL FINDS EXPLOSIVE CHEMICALS IN EU AID BAGS

   JERUSALEM (Reuters) – Israel said on Saturday it had recently seized a truck carrying chemicals used to make explosives hidden in bags marked as European Union aid for the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip.

   The army said 6.5 tonnes of potassium nitrate were in bags marked as sugar from the European Union for Palestinians in the coastal enclave.

   “We are looking into this report,” said an EU official in Israel. “If it is found to be accurate, this is an illegal act that should be condemned.”

   The cargo in a Palestinian truck was traveling in the occupied West Bank and seized several weeks ago at an Israeli checkpoint, the army said.

   EXPLOSIVES FOUND IN “HUMANITARIAN” AID TO GAZA

   Israel Airport Authority workers discovered two tons of explosive material intended for Gaza-based terrorists. The explosives were discovered in a truck earmarked for humanitarian aid at the Kerem Shalom crossing.

   The incident was the second of it's kind in less than a month. In late December IDF soldiers discovered 6.5 tons of potassium nitrate hidden in sacks marked “sugar” earmarked for needy Arabs in Gaza.

   EU CONDEMNS USE OF PHONY SUGAR BAGS TO CONCEAL CHEMICALS IN WEST BANK

   The European Union has denied any connection to bags that Israel said were marked as containing EU-donated “sugar,” but were actually filled with bomb-making chemicals bound for the Gaza Strip. EU spokeswoman Alix deMauny said the bloc distributes its food aid through UN agencies, rather than directly, and does not export any sugar to Gaza. The Israeli army said on Saturday that it seized 6.5 tonnes of potassium nitrate aboard a Palestinian truck travelling through the occupied West Bank en route to Gaza. Potassium nitrate can be used to make explosives and power homemade rockets. The EU is the largest provider of humanitarian assistance to the Palestinians.

   My Wife was a Combat Medic for 7.5 years. Among her many duties as a Medic she would work various ceremonies, and parades. An FLA (Field Ambulance) was always on hand, but aid bags and equipment for the vehicles were not. Many a time she was asked, by other soldiers, what she was going to do in a serious emergency since she had no equipment. “call 911″ she would always answer.

   a nice rundown of various first aid bags people have used. These are significantly larger than blow-out-kit sized ones.
