With over 26 years of military experience, I've heard it said, many times , by many high ranking officers, pillots mostly, that:
Drills are notoriously the perfect cover for false flag ops

The Communists in the LAME Stream Media,covering up for the Fabian Fascists in the White House, will try to sell those lies to the stupid and they'll probably buy them.

But wait! I thought preppers were insane, extreme, rightwing, unhinged, RELIGIOUS, black helicopter-fearing, Neanderthals.
Now the Obama Administration is telling me they were right all along?

I demand an answer.
WHY did you remove that comment?
It happened, and just because you don't like it doesn't mean it didn't happen
Mr. Jim Robinson,
I want to put that comment back and I need you to override this Admin Moderator.

Still hearing tales of government computers being erased by power failure in the Walmart checkout line, lol?
To: Yosemitest; Kartographer
I just find it intrigueing that this particular two hour National Geographic special is being shown on the advent of government shutdown and amid rumors of “drills” to exercise emergency actions in a nationwide blackout.

have these idiots alerted all the Ham Radio operators yet? they are the last ones still on the air after a natural disaster, as their rigs are portable. Hubby is on the Ham Alert team for our area, and they have not been notified.

And...sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
Folks have been warning about EMPs for years. Could it be that they are finally trying to figure out how it will affect us?
I am no fan of the government, but we damn them because they do not prepare for things, and then we damn them for preparing for things.
It is important to be prepared for any emergency, natural or otherwise. In this case, there is nothing you or I can do about it.

I hate to be the bearer of dissonance but we have blackout drills once or twice a year in the power industry. Not just a couple of small local utilities - everybody gets involved.
As for what the government should do, I recommend getting the heck out of the way so that the utilities can restore what’s left of their power systems and start rebuilding what is damaged.

There is nothing that government involvment can't make worse.

I have no doubts that a blackout will be bad. Most likely VERY bad.
BUT i don’t think anyone has factored in that many Americans outside the blackout area will bring supplies to those inside the black out area. The government is not capable of handling something this big and people will take matters into their own hands. I do predict that “in the interest of safety” the gov’t will try to stop people from taking things in though.

Thank you for posting this ...again....because I had just woken up and my eyes were still half closed when I saw the first one and when I tried to get back to it, it was gone. Thought maybe I had dreamed it or something.
The morsi trial which might become very explosive and seal obama's fate begins this Monday in Egypt. The preliminary days will be filled with violence fomented by the brotherhood, but the meat of the trial will be coming right around the time of gridex II.
I really don't know how far obama and his handlers would go to prevent his ouster, but I simply do not trust my government anymore.
This is a Threat Matrix list documenting threats within and without. Anyone wanting on or off please advise.

Our enemies will wait until we are all dependent on electric transportation before they knock out our grid.

I don't know.
I certainly hope so.
Be sure to watch
"Dangers to America" ( 3:27 ) from Glenn Beck's "theBlaze" at the bottom of that link.
Also watch for the " 'Crescent' Sun Rise" on November 3, 2013 morning,
Then ponder
this." ... and the third part of the sun was smitten,and the third part of the moon,and the third part of the stars;
so as the third part of them was darkened,and the day shone not for a third part of it,

Why isn’t this drill done in the summer months? In November, folks will freeze and be without water. Not everyone has a fireplace.
Americans outside the areas may want to help but the government will stop them just like they did with hurricane Irene and Sandy.

You can prepare!
But who will be the "fall guy" for the ILLEGAL ALIEN IN CHIEF that really pulls the plug" so the Kenyan Turd can claim that all those computer records have been destroyed?
