North Korea Openly Threatens EMP Attack On U.S. For First Time Ever

[HAPPY2BME]

For the first time ever, North Korea has threatened to strike the U.S. with an EMP (electromagnetic pulse) attack. In an interview with Breitbart News, author Anthony Furey explains why the threat could dramatically increase tensions between North Korea and the U.S.

According to the Associated Press, shortly after North Korea launched its sixth nuclear test using an H-bomb, the “Hermit Kingdom’s” leader Kim Jong-un issued a statement through its state-run Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) claiming the weapon “is a multi-functional thermonuclear nuke with great destructive power which can be detonated even at high altitudes for super-powerful EMP (electromagnetic pulse) attack according to strategic goals.”

An NEMP is an abrupt pulse of electromagnetic radiation that occurs as a result of a nuclear explosion. An NNEMP is virtually the same except it does not include the nuclear component. The currents caused by these charges the atmosphere with electromagnetic waves that travel down onto the earth’s surface at super speeds hitting everything within their line of sight, sending high-voltage energy through the electricity grid and frying them, causing massive disarray.

Anthony Furey’s book Pulse Attack: The Real Story Behind the Secret Weapon That Can Destroy North America is the first of its kind to outline the A-Z effects of a potential EMP attack on North America. The book also presents several simple and straightforward ways North America can protect against such a devastating scenario.

    North America’s grid is currently not protected against an EMP disruption or attack. Furey told Breitbart News that this recent statement from North Korea will likely increase public interest in the potential for an EMP attack. “And politics is, of course, downstream from culture. It will change the way we look at the issue culturally because for a long time there were people who were dismissive of it” by downplaying the probability of an EMP attack.

Amid the EMP threat, Defense Secretary James Mattis warned North Korea that the U.S. will use massive military force against the Hermit Kingdom if it must.

    Secretary Mattis: Any threat to the United States, its territories, including Guam, or our allies will be met with massive military response. A response both effective and overwhelming. king Jong Un should take heed of the United Nations Security Council’s unified voice.

Korean Opposition: Please Give Us Nukes

Members of the Liberty Korea Party, the main South Korean opposition party to President Moon Jae-in’s Democratic Party, have arrived in Washington, D.C., to lobby for the redeployment of nuclear weapons on their territory.

The Washington Post reported Thursday:

    A senior delegation of South Korean lawmakers is in town making the case to the Trump administration and Congress that such a move is needed to confront North Korea’s growing nuclear capability and place more pressure on China.

    “We are here to ask for redeployment of tactical nuclear warheads in South Korea,” Lee Cheol Woo, the head of the intelligence committee of South Korea’s National Assembly, told me Thursday morning.

    Lee is heading a delegation of members of the Liberty Korea Party, the opposition to President Moon Jae-in’s Democratic Party. He is also the chairman of the assembly’s special committee for nuclear crisis response …

    Lee’s delegation believes that as the North Korea nuclear crisis worsens, a push by the Trump administration or Congress could help persuade Moon’s government to change its position, as it has already done regarding the deployment of the THAAD missile defense system.

Moon told CNN earlier in the day that he would not authorize the redeployment of nuclear weapons on South Korean soil in response to the North Korean threat. It’s not clear how Friday’s latest missile test launch will change that opinion.

Throughout much of the Cold War, nuclear weapons were deployed to South Korea. They were removed in 1991. Recent reports suggest U.S. military bases could be preparing for their redeployment in spite of Moon’s opposition.
