Israel could destroy Iran’s electric network with a specially designed electromagnetic bomb in the event of a military conflict between the countries, The Sunday Times reported on Sunday.
An electromagnetic bomb of this sort would be detonated above the ground, creating an electromagnetic pulse that would “disrupt all the technological devices working on the ground,” an American expert was quoted as saying to the London paper.
The use of the new technology by Israel was brought up in discussions regarding a possible attack on Tehran’s nuclear facilities, the report claimed. Such a move would send Iran “back to the stone age,” the British paper said.

Stone age??
They would not being going back very far.
Using two of these over the USA would send us back to the 1870’s. Its a real threat.
No more food shipped. No more working cars except for non electronic ignition. No more trucks ru.ning except diesels not regulated by computer chip. no more life sustaining medications and death for people with illnesses such as diabetes.
No more communications except equipment preserved in faraday cages, such as ham radios.
A.d, with no internet, most will actually realize that civilization as we knew it is over.
Coincidence?

From the iron age?
I think they would have to go forward to get to the stone age.
Not really that long a trip!
I have no doubt of that possibility, however, how limited or controllable is such an explosion's effects? Will it spill over to neighboring countries?
Actually much further back than the 1870’s, because then many people had skills and a work ethic that were suited to that environment. How many black smiths have you seen lately? How many people know how to plough with a horse and have the equipment to do it?
The answer is truly .. evil must be eliminated, and THAT will never happen, unless you could wipe out all evil from the earth, which will leave you the last man standing, until you realize how evil YOU'VE become ... and ice yourself
Islamic countries, by definition are basically in the stone ages anyway. What difference would this make?
Yup! Microwave-a-Mullah time. Most excellent!
“How many know how to plough with a horse and have the equipment to do it with.”
We are fortunate to have a huge Amish community here, and many neighbors we are friends with do it. Plenty of horses, plows, mechanical planters and pickers, wagons, heritage seed, and lots of people ready to work. Their way of doing things hasnt changed much in 150 years.
What is it with EMP stories coming out over the past three days? Is there an EMP movie coming out? There are so many EMP myths and falsehoods out there that these read more doomsday prepped than journalism.
Curious as to how these stories are being pitched.
Gardners will have a leg up, but few garden to feed in toto, a family
Very real
THEY won't have the communication(s), the ability to feed and pay to accomplish evil.
It’s really not that far a trip for some...
