View Full Version : Potential EMP Attack could kill 90% of US population

“Because of the very nature of the way that Cheyenne Mountain’s built, it’s EMP-hardened,” states Admiral William Gortney, head of NORAD and Northern Command. “And so, there’s a lot of movement to put capability into Cheyenne Mountain and to be able to communicate in there,” Gortney continued.
The Pentagon announced last week that the Raytheon Corporation will receive a $700 million contract to prep the Cheyenne Mountain base in Colorado for the return of US aerospace command, having abandoned it in 2006 for the Petersen Air Force base in Colorado Springs.
The half-acre mountain cavern was created in the 1960s in response to the Cold War and is designed to withstand a nuclear strike. Now it is being reopened for the very real threat of an EMP attack capable of being carried out by any one of America’s rogue nation enemies. Iranian military recently called for an EMP attack (http://beforeitsnews.com/r2/?url=http://www.truthandaction.org/iranian-military-calls-emp-attack-america-killing-90-population/) on the U.S. as Obama was negotiating a nuclear deal that would help them achieve a nuke.
Experts state that an EMP attack (http://beforeitsnews.com/r2/?url=http://www.truthandaction.org/americas-achilles-heel-emp-attack-kill-90-us-population/), which would fry all electronics within it’s wide blast radius, would kill 90% of the American population within a year if carried out. While people wouldn’t die immediately from the EMP itself, as we would lose every car, all forms of communication, all lights and anything that’s run by electricity, it would cast the States back to 1870. Neighbor would be set upon neighbor as people would be fighting for food and water – requiring the immediate implementation of martial law and activation of those infamous FEMA camps.

To be honest, this is terrifying, if it happens it wont be a quick death but a prolonged death as society would be set into chaos, and 90 of people would die within the first year, literally wiping out an entire country in a single blow.

Or exciting.


I mean in that type of situation an individual actually gets the acceptable opportunity to twist moral scenarios of the "civilized" world and really test one's own character and the character of others based on the "content of their character".

Willingness to be selfish or selfless....

One gets to turn off guilt about what they do to other people all for the sake and rationale of "survival".


Could be fun.......

But then again your talking to someone who sees their own natural death as an opportunity to finally answer the question if ghosts are real....and then what that experience is like.

well we need martial law anyway

it's far likelier we'll get an EMP hit from the Sun, see the Carrington event.

Yeah prob from the sun.


Mankind as a species is taking way to long to collectively put their differences aside to meet planetary and species ending threats, and come up with solutions.

Once those are met, THEN they can argue amongst themselves with wars about religion and resources and sex and money.



Humanity got it's priorities mixed up. Because like say someone conquers the world and one religion beats out the others.

Cool victory....but then they learn an asteroid is coming to destroy everything they just "won" in like 72 hours.


Pointless.


Humanity as a generality, with some exceptions, are immature little kids, with adults having an extra dose of pride and laziness learning new things. (Old ppl tend to stick to their old habits of doing things).

So... Here's my response.

1. My response if this is actually even possible for one of our rival nations to pull off(which I don't think it is. It is more likely something like this would occur from a solar flare of some sort):
It's actually quite exciting. We'd get to see all of the people of America live without internet and without their worthless, passive lifestyles. It would be quite wonderful in many ways. I, personally, don't think it would kill that many people. I mean we could just learn to live with it. We know how to adjust(or at least it's pretty easy to figure it out).
2. My response to it being impossible:
I'd say it just wouldn't happen. You may not realize just how big the US is. I mean turning off the lights in every single state would probably be pretty difficult; however, I'm not crazy educated on this sort of thing so if anyone wants to prove me wrong then please go ahead.

Nah many people would die because they didn't learn the skills of those who lived in the 1800's learned.


You also have to know such a disaster stops us from getting water at drinkable conditions before people start dying of thirst. Natural sources of water also tend to be too polluted due to decisions we make from our society now with everything functioning.

Facets would not work because electrical pumps are needed to give pressure to city drinking water purification and plumbing systems.

When resources are scarce people show a form of favoritism and selfishness for themselves or for their families over other people.


Therefore people will fight and kill each other to survive. Or they'll pass away with honor intact.

Just look at how they compete and hurt each other for a bargain while shopping (Black Friday).

We'll all get along (sarcasm).


Oh yeah many would die from radiation.
