Speculation Abounds: Did North Korea Launch a New EMP Capable Star Wars Weapon System?
SHTF Plan ^ | 12/13/12 | Mac Slavo

Posted on 12/14/2012 4:08:57 AM PST by Kartographer

In May of 2009 North Korea’s controversial nuclear weapons tests were dismissed by global intelligence agencies as failures due to their low explosive yield. But EMPact America President Dr. Peter Vincent Pry, a former CIA nuclear weapons analyst, had his own assessment. It appears, according to Pry, that while the yield from the nuclear tests was weak with respect to destructive power in terms of the nuclear blast itself, the tests indicated the weapon was “capable of emitting enough gamma rays to disable the electric power grid across most of the lower 48 states.”

It’s been referred to as a “Super-EMP,” or electro-magnetic pulse weapon, something that foreign powers and rogue states have been working on developing for years as a low-cost, low-inventory counter strategy to America’s massive nuclear weapons stockpiles.

You are the one claiming the article is bogus. I ask for your proof and you come back with only angry rhetoric. The burden of proof is on you.

I proved the article with his statement I would say that in any logic and civil argument that it is up to you to If you agree with this ludicrous statement, please feel free to post any and all technical papers and intelligence reports that would tend to back up your claim that his statement is nonsensical and overblown. As far as you being happy to share any technical data that I believe will refute such. Why would you not have are ready supplied such to establish your claim? Or is it your habit to call someone a liar without proof?

It’s m y habit to call bullshit when a claim is made with no facts to back it up, and the garbage you posted fits that profile.

That’s the problem, people call people lairs with no more than their word and expect people to except their version as being right even when they provide nothing more than their opinion and then get angry because people ask for them to back up their opinion with facts.

When did it become acceptable for someone to call another a lair with no proof or facts to back their accusations? Not only do you seem to find this behavior acceptable you are almost seem proud of it.

The only person that seems to be getting angry is you, so you can put a hold on the drama queen act.

You seem to accept this guys assertions as fact without providing any proof, other than his speculation, to back it up.

Prove that the Norks have the capability to do perform what was asserted and I'll have little problem believing it, but throw out such claims without actual facts to back it up and I call BS from the standpoint of observed actions.

Not too difficult to comprehend, and certainly not an unreasonable request.

Then by your own admission I would be right in calling someone who claims without proof to know more about the situation than a CIA nuclear weapons analyst to be full of BS and a liar.
