Nuclear subs are immune to EMP.

"Nuclear subs are immune to EMP. Immune."

Not too many of us can fit in the subs of the world.

Yes they are, and that leg of our triad will certainly be in a positioon to give an overwhelimg response.

But the Chinese know this too and they will have taken that into account in their planning. If they can somehow protect or hide their leadership and protect some portion of their own infrastructure, they may be willing to lose several tens of millions.

I pray this is not the case...but know we had best be prepared. Their view and value of the lives of their citizenry is foreign and alien to us...they have proved it over and over again and may well be planning to do so again.
