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.
