Not just the United States, but the world is vulnerable to Electromagnetic Pulses (EMPs) either from a gigantic solar flare or from a malign attack by an enemy … exploding an atomic weapon in space above a country. This is a threat that it is uncomfortable to even think about … but, kind reader, you need to understand the details about this specter.
So, if you are a Fox-hating liberal, hold your nose and please, please watch the above “Life, Liberty and Levin” video that contains essential info about the science behind this potential Armageddon, the risk profile and what would be necessary to diminish the impact. (But not before just going to bed.)
I won’t reveal all the key facts … because I would like you to watch it … several times.
STAND UP FOR PREPAREDNESS!
EMPs have been a threat since 1950. And what do you for preparedness? Put a Faraday cage around your bomb shelter?
