OK, it is from the Washington Times, and no one knows if NK has an EMP, or would be foolish enough to attack the US (which increasingly is doing well enough in destroying itself from within) but because states like that attain such potential, the article continues,

Most alarming, we are fast moving to a place where, for the first time in history, failed little states like North Korea and Iran, that cannot even feed their own people, will have power in their hands to blackmail or destroy the largest and most successful societies on Earth. North Korea and Iran perceive themselves to be at war with the United States, and are desperate, highly unpredictable characters.

"Israel hath cast off the thing that is good: the enemy shall pursue him" (Hosea 8:3) applies in principle here.

Well, I wish they’d hurry up with tossing that EMP our way!

At least it would undermine Obama’s plans for destroying America.

Next election would have paper ballots.
MSM influence would be gone.

The 47% who prefer to sit on their ass, will have to make new choices.

Yes, and as soon as they pull that little trick Im sure we have an off-shore submarine or two that will retaliate and blast all the Norks to Kingdom Come.

So such a move is not without risk

Surrender now, America! Your puny defenses are no match for our power!

EMP stories seem to be on a four month cycle, and all say that the USA is doomed in the face of a single EMP bomb.

Read “One Second After” by William R. Forstchen.

A great read about an EMP strike against the United States.

does anyone really think that our "leaders" want peace?....I don't think they do......must be billions to be made by the elites...because our once proud country is doing nothing to protect us or other good people in the world....

we are the Unitied States of America....we have a grand history of revolution, or industry, progress, and democracy....

a nation of God fearing Christians who at one time were moral,ethical, spiritual, and believed in hard work and postponing reward for the better good....

now look what a pathetic mess we've become....and no way to stop if because of the head jerk in chief.....the evil ones control everything....

A nuclear signature on an ICBM would be shot down by a Japanese Aegis.

The fun part would be letting the Norks f*** it up and having it explode over Beijing.

In the spring of 1951, we had the North Koreans and their Red Chinese allies on the run. Had President Truman not halted at the 38th Parallel, we would have eliminated this potentially existential threat to us.

Let’s look at the “One Second After” scenario.
An EMP weapon launched from a shipping vessel that immediately sinks so there is no evidence who did it.
Worst case, all communications are gone. Yes, we do have boomers everywhere but would the order come to attack? And who would we attack? The Norks? The Iranians? The Chinese? The Russians? All capable and all hate us. Would someone make a decision to strike all of them with the chance that most are innocent? I think not!
It is a very real possibility that it could be done and they could get away with it.

The first line in the article was pure alarmist bullsh*t. The norkx cannot get a nuke over the US.
