Bomb-Bomb Iran: To Avert EMP Attack? I doubt it too!

But...

"In an exclusive interview with Newsmax TV, Gaffney essentially warned that "any day" now, Iran could detonate exo-atmospherically, somewhere over Kansas, a specially designed multi-megaton thermonuclear weapon, which could wipe out our entire electricity grid, causing a "catastrophic disaster."

"Such an attack could really cripple our 21st-century society, and I would suggest sort of push us back into preindustrial society in the blink of an eye. It would translate over time – not immediately but over time – into the deaths of perhaps as many as nine out of 10 Americans, because our society simply can't be sustained without electricity and all of the infrastructure that supports our urban settings."

While I have my doubts about Iran doing this... I think that it is important to understand the issue, because this might be used as an excuse to attack. Also, it might be blamed on them in a false attack...

I hope I clarfied my position..

I do think we should be aware of what an attack looks like, because for most it would just be lights out and no explanation.

I look at reports like these as an opportunity to educate. Read the description of what would happen just so you are aware. One day it might save a life.

Oh, I see..

We have to bomb Iran and most likely trigger World War III (both the Russians and the Chinese have agreements with Iran) just to prevent a POSSIBLE EMP attack. That makes sense...

Excuse me, just WHERE are the Iranians going to get the delivery system for an EMP? Buy it from Israel?

I think Israel will do it first, and blame the Iranians, or

Russians, no doubt. I have always been a God fearing woman, and I do not believe that the State of Israel is the same one that God spoke of in the Bible. The State of Israel as we know it now, is no better than the German Nazis of the 30's and 40's, and have no regard for the Bible in any way, shape or form, it is about power, money, and greed for them, unfortunately our government officials have been bought and paid for by both the Islamics, and the State of Israel.

Unbelievable joke. I can't

Unbelievable joke. I can't even believe this. how in the world do people buy this Sh@t!?

I don't buy it either..

But I know a lot of neo-conned people do. Why do you think there is so much talk of it? If no one believed it, neo-cons would not be in power right now.

However, a nuclear black flag attack? ... maybe

Here are some good resources...

You Will Survive Doomsday
By Bruce Beach
A better way to wipe out the communications of North America is to just explode four thermonuclear devices at a high altitude over the continent. These will generate an EMP (Electro Magnetic Pulse) that will knock out most electric and electronic devices tied into the power grids. It will also knock out any new devices that contain IC's (integrated circuits) and that have an antenna over thirty inches long. That means that your car radio, portable radio, and television will be inoperable, even if the power ever does come back on.

All over the continent the power and lights will suddenly go off. If you happen to be listening to a battery operated old tube type radio (when did you last see one of those?) that is tuned into a "hardened" transmitter sight (I don't know where you will find one) that transmits (fat chance) the EBS (Emergency Broadcast Signal) then you will know that doomsday has begun.

Otherwise you will be standing out there with the rest of us survivors saying, "Nice day, eh? Strange the power would go off on a nice day like this." Silence. The sun will continue to shine, and the birds will sing, and the breezes will blow and you will still not know that they have a bit of a problem up in North Bay. They are no longer there. Silence

What do you mean...

What sh..xqt?

Yeah. The Iranians will do it

2000 years of no aggression or starting a war. They'll be the ones. Newsmax is mainstream bull.

My point exactly

I do not think the Iranians will do it... just that neo-cons are making more excuses on why they should bomb them.

The other thing I thing is important is what a nuclear war might look like.

Here is a good Canadian manual on the topic.
http://www.ki4u.com/survive/index.htm

Fallout here from nuke use in
Pakistan, India, Mid-East, Korea, Taiwan, China, Russia, etc

"Perhaps the first nuclear war casualties in the United States will be caused by fallout from an overseas nuclear war in which our country is not a belligerent. As the number of nations with nuclear weapons increases - especially in the Middle East - this generally unrecognized danger to Americans will worsen."

"Trans-Pacific war fallout, carried to an America at peace by the prevailing west-to-east winds that blow around the world, could be several hundred times more dangerous to Americans than fallout from the worst possible overseas nuclear power reactor accident, and many times more dangerous than fallout from a very improbable U.S. nuclear power reactor accident as lethal as the disastrous Chernobyl accident was to Russians."

Ohhhhhhhh.....

we must kill them all before they
come over here and get us.
