Within a year, nine out of 10 Americans could be dead. And whatever causes the national apocalypse—be it North Korean malice or the whims of the sun—the downfall will ultimately be our own fault.
That's the fear of Newt Gingrich and other members of a high-profile coalition who are convinced that our fragile electrical grid could be wiped out at any moment.
Their concern? Electromagnetic pulses, the short bursts of energy—caused by anything from a nuclear blast to a solar flare—that can wreak havoc on electrical systems on a massive scale. And the coalition believes it's coming soon.

Who can see anything related to the thread topic when your huge ego leads you to do what what you are doing?
No, it actually does NOT originate from the Bible. It originates from Greek. Before it existed in the Bible, it existed in the Greek.
The whole original New Testament is written is Greek.
And the Greek — all the words — existed BEFORE it ... :-) ... thus the word did NOT ORIGINATE in the Bible.
You’re sitting there actually arguing with me that most people for a long time don’t associate “apocalypse” with Biblical end time catastrophes? You see a references to the Bible even in a cursory look-ups of the word. This is a waste of time.
Whatever you say, it’s not in this article and it’s this article we’re talking about.
There is not “God” in this article. There is not the “Tribulation” in this article. There is not the Book of Revelation in this article. There are no verse references in this article. There are no references to prophetic events in this article. There’s only YOU trying to “shoe-horn” in the Bible and prophetic events. It does not exist here.
All quite true ... but a repeat of the “Carrington Event” is probably much more probable, and that *is* something to be ready for (in fact, I think we barely dodged that bullet just a few weeks ago?)
Newt is seeking new donors/employers/paid-speech-venues/contract-for-hire-foundations and ‘non-profits to keep his perennial “election campaign” (like Pat Buchanan) alive (paid for) without him taking or getting any real job.
The ‘grid’ industries and the tech backers of “smart grid” and their cronies in Washington D.C., looking for subsidies and tax breaks (to be given as part of new ‘regulations’ to “secure the grid”) make prime candidates for presently unemployed Newt to do their shilling for them in Washington D.C.
PING!
I’m not sure what is good about an event that could cause 90 percent of our population to die in a year from causes easily preventable if we only had electricity.
Home-wrecking wifey no. 2 . . .
Thanks...enjoyable reading until it turned in to a Bible food fight! LOL
OH well. What can I say? There’s a little Anamil House in all of us!
Nice. lol. And well put.
-— That’s not what the EMP Commission says: -—
I’ve read that the “failed” Iranian rocket tests have “failed” at the EMP detonation altitude.
I am “so old” that food fights had not even been “invented” until after I finished college!
Well, then TV came along and so I guess we all learned about things outside our area.
No. according to you, it is not apocalyptic.
The plan was once called MAD. Almost certain is still in play and always on the table. Israel calls their plan the Sampson Option. Rest assured nobody wants either MAD or the Sampson Option but regrettably those options always have to be on the table and have been since the 1960s.
