WASHINGTON
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Woolsey commended the Commission to Assess the Threat to the United States from EMP Attack for its years of work on the subject and for its dire report concluding that it is a means of attack that could lead to the defeat of the U.S. by a much smaller enemy and utter devastation of the country.
"That is a very serious threat," he told the committee. "And one thing we need badly to do is to figure out ways to harden our electricity grid and various types of key nodes so that electromagnetic pulse blasts of nuclear weapons, or other ways of generating electromagnetic pulse, even if it knocks out our toaster ovens will not knock out, for example, our electricity grid."
Woolsey, like the commission, specifically mentioned the new dimension a nuclear Iran would add to the risk of such an attack."
