Its only a matter of time before we see this type of attack...
According to a declassified 2005 report "RELEASED" last week, China had been testing the effects of an electromagnetic pulse attack–the detonation of a nuclear device at high altitude to maximize the area affected by the EMP–possibly meant for Taiwan. According to the report, China was actually testing two kinds of nuclear blasts and the effects the resulting radiation would have on humans. (China was testing them on animals, which experienced “high mortality rates.”)

A good novel that describes the aftermath is "ONE SECOND AFTER"
I think that most likely the North Koreans will use their EMP weapon (theirs is based on the Russian design, small traditional nuke blast, but very powerful EMP effect) on either S. Korea or Japan. Then The Chinese will back them, to deter us from retaliating, by using their EMP on Taiwan as a demonstration.
ReplyDeleteAT that time, (if they haven't already used it), Iran will either their EMP on both Israel to take out their military (and out of pure hatred) and Saudi Arabia to take out the oil production. Thus crippling our oil supply.
The Russians may use their EMP on a limited scale on Alaska and Canada to take out their oil production. We get more oil from them actually than from the Saudis.
I've read One Second After. Due to poor leadership from both Republicans and Democraps (yes, I spelled it like that on purpose) we are now in a weak position of power.
