Fortunately our ballistic missile subs are immune to EMP and military command and control communications was supposedly hardened against EMP. That means though we would be crippled, the US could still launch a nuclear attack on Iran in retaliation. Back in the Cold War days the Russians were smart enough to know that a surprise attack on the US would mean massive instant retaliation... the doctrine of mutual assured destruction. The mad mullahs in Tehran would not seem to be deterred by the threat of nuclear annihilation and are either counting on Obama to do nothing but capitulate or don't care if their entire nation is destroyed

Obama’s LEGACY will forevermore be that he changed the course of history by HELPING Iran develop nuclear weapons. It will not matter what his intentions were. He, and he alone, will be responsible.

I’m looking for more info on the “recently translated Iranian military textbook “ mentioned in this article:

http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/iran-endorses-nuclear-emp-attack-on-united-states/article/2561733#!

From the above link:

“....The issue of a nuclear EMP attack was raised in the final hours of this week’s elections in Israel when U.S. authority Peter Vincent Pry penned a column for Arutz Sheva warning of Iran’s threat to free nations.

“Iranian military documents describe such a scenario — including a recently translated Iranian military textbook that endorses nuclear EMP attack against the United States,” he wrote.

A knowledgable source said that the textbook discusses an EMP attack on America in 20 different places. ....”

That link within the words “Peter Vincent Pry penned” goes here; I don’t see any mention of the “Iranian military textbook”:
