Another EMP story

[Drinkthekoolaid]

I know most of you guys here already know this but I still thought this was worth sharing

Military warns EMP attack could wipe out America, 'democracy, world order'

 

[Curmudgeon]

Yep. Nothing new. About time gubbamint.

 

[Bananabandit]

Oh no, Ill get back to work, master..dont take out America, master

“In a worst-case scenario, all reactors


within an affected region could

be impacted simultaneously. In the

United States, this would risk meltdowns

at approximately 60 sites

and 99 nuclear reactors, with more

than 60,000 metric tons of spent

nuclear fuel in storage pools

1911's are EMP proof.

= Game over





That right there is the main reason I posted the link.

This was the first government report that mentioned what they think will happen to the reactors. They basically admit they expect them all to melt down. This is stunning. If people ignore the risk of an EMP and blow it off as nonsense they are only kidding themselves.

EMP proof yes.

Frying pan, no.

Not the ones with frikin' lasers in the grips.

Electronic sighting devices were an attempt to get gay people interested in the shooting sports. Iron sights are for real men.

What about the mirrored disco ball hanging from the light rail?

if the designers of a nuke power generating plant has no clue of Faraday shielding .. were fked

Only dangerous in a nuclear attack.

At the time many nuke plants were designed no one envisioned a world of terrorism and constant state of alert in America. Unfortunately this too is part of Orwell's 1984 fictional work, prophecy come true.

It's a problem because they kinda over looked active cooling systems to keep reactors from over heating.

Just from memory folk ... Could be wrong. I have several books on the subject and one on surviving a nuke attack.
I believe it said If a reactor got damaged the danger zone would be for us in western NY would be down to Mount Morris from the Ontario plant.... Depending on the wind drift.... My thoughts ... Have read that most plants have enough fuel to keep the pumps running for a week.... So go in and have stand alone hardened diesel pumps and generators in faraday cages not connected to any grid with a years supply of diesel fuel. on hand. ... Then try to find the folks to run them ... Keep everything running... The stress level alone can see folks cracking ....
One has to have the will to work on this EMP problem. I understand Trump wanted a report and study on the EMP issue and maybe this posted above is it. ... Trouble with this country ... All one will hear about is impeach 45 for the next few years ... and Trumps tax returns. ... My opinion ... I believe Trump could solve this issue of having the reactors cool at least for a year... He is a builder and understands construction. .. Problem is few liberals even are aware of the problem. Their agenda is to destroy Trump and his family ...Rinos too with Mittens leading the charge

The military has known about EMP threats for a long long time. Everything designed for the military has to be EMP hardened. Even mil vehicles from Vietnam are EMP hardened. That was a deciding factor when I bought my M1008 and when I bought my new General Dynamics laptop. I'll be looking for mil radio equipment in a while.
They can easily retrofit back up generators at the nuke plants to get them shut down safely and keep them cool. Stockpile enough diesel fuel to last long enough. Diesel fuel doesn't go bad.

The Amish said: Bring it on !!!

 

[GOPerfect]

Today's Amish would fail as well. Maybe not as quickly, but they will fail as well.

and what @livingston said ..

store some liquid Nitrogen in tankers for emergency cooling the water tanks ..

And ANOTHER warning was just issued.
