An EMP attack would be suicidal to whomever launched it. I would nuke the living sh*t out of the country that initiated it.
You would, but the current pResident wouldn’t.
He has to authorize any nuclear attack, and he wouldn’t.
“An EMP attack would be suicidal to whomever launched it. I would nuke the living sh*t out of the country that initiated it.”
Presuming the EMP didn’t knock out our retaliatory capability. Under Reagan, I was confident of that. After eight years of Beelzebubba and three hundred years of Barry Sowetoro, not so much.
The problem with an EMP attack against the United States is the domino effect it would have for the world economy. As the U.S. economy flushed down the drain, there would be an economic void that would take everyone with it. Mass nations would die off from starvation and disease as the U.S. food products failed to make it to market. The living would not know how to deal with all the dead.
Are you forgetting that that is exactly how the mooslimes like it?
Assuming our missiles could launch and our bombers get off the ground.
That presumes that we knew who launched it. It could be done from a sea launch platform by deniable assets. Do you think our current President would launch retaliation on a hunch?
For all who want a good knowledge of the EMP threat, here is a good site:
I suggest all who are interested to download the 208 page 7 mb report. It has some fascinating information in it. They tested quite a few items. All cars that they tested, that were turned off during the EMP, started afterward. About 90% of those who were running when the EMP hit, once they were powered down, started up again.
We also have many vulnerabilities.
I visited the facility where the testing was done. I have a colleague that collects data there.
In the old days when it took 50 missiles to destroy the United States we would know where they were launched from...
An EMP device could be shot off from a freighter off shore ... might never know who was behind it. A guess maybe - North Korea, Iran, China some terrorists group, etc... still a guess.
Ahh, but their premise is that nukes won't work. They are also fried. And if not, the way to make them usable would be fried. Nukes like to be talked to ala, "Dark Star" ....
Doolittle: Bomb, this is Lt. Doolittle. You are *not* to detonate in the bomb bay. I repeat, you are NOT to detonate in the bomb bay!
