According to this former Defense official they may an EMP and the means to deliver it.
Thats a scary article
Interesting and a bit scary too. Two things, 1 the effects of an EMP attack are not really well known. Could be terrible or not so much. 2 the article states that the NK satellite does not or did not pass over the USA but if it is in a polar orbit it will at some point in time pass over every point on Earth including the USA so I am confused about that. I do not understand why we have not hardened our grid as a precaution. An EMP attack may or may not happen but a huge solar flare will happen. The grid needs to be hardened.
