I can make bombs, in theory, but I don't know that I'd want to even in an extreme situation. I'm not a big fan of killing, even if it's a "them or me" situation.

You have a bomb shelter?! My respect for you just went up 10x. Then went down when you said you had no firearms
Get a .22 rifle at least for hunting small animals. They're cheap and can even be effective in a firefight if you have really really good aim.

Why are you so sure? Look at the russians and what happened after the coldwar. We are in a similar situation with two wars going on (yeah, iraq is still a freaking war when it costs that much). And then we have North Korea running wild and the israeli poised to strike. We're setting up for another world war. And this time america doesn't have the same amount of resources.
