COULD NORTH KOREA DESTROY THE U.S.?


North Korea (NOKO) currently has three satellites circling the earth, possibly containing a super-EMP (Electro Magnetic Pulse) weapon.  NOKO also has dozens of submarines and at least a dozen intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) capable of reaching America.  How did NOKO develop an EMP nuclear bomb?  NOKO (accidentally?) received EMP technology from Russia around 2004 and its nuclear tests have the signature of EMPs. Moreover, NOKO in January ’22 alone tested seven missiles, including hypersonic missiles, and many more since then.

Could the United States go from being the world’s only superpower to being impoverished, like most previous great powers through the ages?  Anything is possible, but I believe that an Electric Magnetic Pulse (EMP) would seriously cripple the United States unless the U.S.  hardens its electric generation and transmission infra-structure (at a cost of at least about $4 billion).

If you saw the most recent version of the movie, “Godzilla,” you know a little about what EMPs can do.  EMPs are one of the greatest threats to the United States today and have even been caused naturally in the past, and are likely how the U.S. might be destroyed by NOKO, Iran, etc. with 90% of our population starving to death the first year following a major EMP attack.

If what I say is true, why haven’t you heard of it?  What are EMPs?  And is there anything that can be done to protect the United States from them, both those caused by nature and those caused by terrorists?

Electro-Magnetic Pulses can be caused naturally by Solar Sun Spots and Flares or by people using nuclear bombs exploded high above the ground.  A lightning strike is a small EMP.  There were EMP’s in 1859, when there was little electricity in use, and therefore just telegraphs were affected; in 1989, in Quebec; and a near-miss in 2012 when the earth was just missed by a major coronal ejection of the Sun that would have devastated the earth’s electronics.

A nuclear bomb detonated high over the U.S. could cause EMPs of such magnitude that all electronics (in phones, computers, autos, TVs, radios, etc.) would be “fried” and the U.S. would revert to stone-age existence with 90% of Americans dead within one year from starvation and people killing each other over food.  Because the U.S. has submarines with nuclear weapons on rockets, the U.S. can retaliate against aggressors, but some religious terrorists (like those in Iran) don’t care about retaliation.  In addition, to be effective in creating an EMP, a nuclear bomb would have to be detonated at least 25 miles above the earth, about in the middle of the United States.  Getting there undetected should be difficult, unless a “lost” plane gets into terrorist hands (and therefore could be disguised and used to carry a nuclear bomb above 25,000 feet altitude).

The effort by the Federal government to harden facilities in the U. S. from an EMP attack was reported by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on September 3, 2020, and titled, “Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) Program Status Report”.  I couldn’t discover whether this DHS program is still ongoing or whether the Biden Administration cancelled it. Take this threat seriously!
