As Obama paved the way for Iran to create nuclear weapons through in 2015, a secret Iranian military playbook, translated by American defense experts, revealed a plan to attack America’s highly vulnerable electric grid with a nuclear EMP attack.
Reports indicate that if America’s power grid went down due to an EMP, 90% of the population would die within 18 months.
How prepared is Iran to make good on their plan?
An EMP attack is an assault on America’s power grid and electronics by detonating a nuclear bomb at high altitude. An EMP would completely fry all electronics, thrusting America back to the 18th century.
In order for Iran to carry out an EMP attack they would need a nuclear weapon, a missile capable of achieving the necessary altitude, anywhere from 25 to 250 miles above the Earth’s surface, and a platform to launch it.
Iran has at least 2 of these in place.

You’re already dead Islamic maggots!
Hey dummy electromagnetic pulse kills electronics not people
Just a short time in winter with out electricity would leave the masses frozen and out of food and water as all pipes would be frozen.
Older pre 70’s vehicles would have to replace condensers and coils.
Also charged batteries would die. And yes cell phones, like Nick said pacemakers… Hydro electric plants would fry.
No water, elevators would be stuck, grid would not come back unless you build new machinery. No computers, no pumping fuel. Streets would be littered with vehicles. No cops or fire departments,
Hospitals not operating. Store shelves empty and looted. Yep… Unless you are prepared. Water purifiers, well in the back yard with a hand pump, and lots of Ammo.
Awesome book. Well written. Also one year after and now there is a third book coming out.
Airplanes “will” fall out of the sky. Return to normalcy? Not in our life time. Also solar flares can cause the same results
It will fry any electronic item running or not. Like lightning hitting it only hundreds of times stronger and in milliseconds. You need faraday boxes to protect electronic items.
Brett, one large burst over middle America, or two medium bursts over each coat and this country is toast. I used to do classes on this. It’s a sudden surge in electoral and magnetic fields. Just takes a nano second.
It’ll take us back 200 years. And many years to recover. Everyone will be on their own. No water, no food, your dead.
Our energy source in this country defines us. We use the most out of any other country. And we are not protecting our power grid. The military in most instances has shielded some of their equipment. But not all.
