Very good analysis. It may even come to pass.
There are still so many who wouldn’t give up freedom though.
There was a thread with more discussion and detail, at http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/3387360/posts Somebody in that thread said if there was an EMP attack it would affect all of North America, so this is something that Canadians would need to think about and prepare for too.
I’ve struggled over whether people should know what’s really been going on, if there’s no way to stop it and it would just make people depressed. In such a context maybe it’s better for people to not know. I’ve decided that there should be somebody in every family who knows, so they can prepare for their whole family. Others in the family don’t need to know; they can stay happy and not know anything unless it comes to pass, in which case somebody else thought ahead and prepared for them. And if it never happens, then they’ve not suffered for a “what if” that never happened.
But if it’s true that we have a portable radar system that could be deployed to our southern border we could possibly stop this. Maybe there would be a different kind of attack but perhaps at least an EMP could be averted. I think the only person who could do it is Donald Trump. If he brought up our vulnerability now that Iran and North Korea have a bomb maybe we could get that portable radar in place before Obama calls for the strike. Or if he does call the strike maybe it will be obvious to his Secret Service detail that he is an enemy and they will serve the nation rather than the Foreign Enemy Combatant in Chief.
