Newt Gives Us Occan’s Razor Full of EMP’s

Nobody Knows

We are coming into to the important Republican caucus in Iowa, and  the front runner, Newt Gingrich, is going full force into announcing the biggest fear we have in facing our country: an EMP attack.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: What national security issue do you worry about that nobody is asking about, either here or in any of the debates so far?

NEWT GINGRICH: An electromagnetic pulse attack, which would literally destroy the country’s capacity to function.

Great. It’s the, “We are all going die.” scenario again.

Is that why they keep playing sitcoms where the world is destroyed and people come back and live on the farm and everyone is really happy without cell phones, Lady Gaga, and the View?

In the sitcom, TERRA NOVA, the world is destroyed and people go BACK in time to start over. In THE WALKING DEAD, a virus creates walking Zombies, and a small group of people try to survive by living on a farm. In the movie 2012…the whole world is destroyed, with the ultimate message being,  that the cream of the crop of humanity (being the elites in power) have already got tickets to the only boats in town. But, they are truly concerned about one lonely author, who they save to redeem their own consciousness and make you think they really are good people after all. Leaders of all the countries were saved! Rejoice!

I’m so tired of the world being destroyed by Hollywood. Come on…give us a break.  

The propaganda on our TV’s is overwhelmingly pointing to the scenario that “Hey, your little world is about to be socially reengineered, but it’s okay because right now you have American Idol!”

Our politicians have cried wolf so many times— (WMD;s—We have to bail out the banks or the world will fall apart—-Pass my bills or Social Security checks will end and grandma will die—-Veterans won’t get paid or receive medical assistance—kids will starve—Obama won’t be able to take a vacation– etc) that when the REAL threat comes, how are we going to believe the messenger?

We may not believe that messenger because much of it has been a bluff before.  Why should we believe any of them? Here’s a bit from the news:

The sad thing is that we are spending hundreds of billions of dollars hunting down “terrorists” in caves on the other side of the globe and we have been told that because of “national security” it is necessary for our private areas to be touched before we are allowed to get on an airplane, but our government is doing essentially nothing to address what is perhaps our biggest security vulnerability.

The president of the Center for Security Policy, Frank Gaffney, is convinced that a single EMP attack could result in the deaths of the vast majority of the population of the United States…“Within a year of that attack, nine out of 10 Americans would be dead, because we can’t support a population of the present size in urban centers and the like without electricity”

It has been estimated that the entire power grid could potentially be protected for about 20 billion dollars. Considering the fact that we have spent over 400 billion dollars in Afghanistan, I think that we could afford it. Yet the Bush administration and the Obama administration have just stood there and have done nothing. Our idiocy is astounding.

This morning on FOX news, they showed a big map of the areas that would be literally burnt to a crisp electronically from an EMP attack. It covered the whole Midwest, and most of Mexico….but funny…it left the lights on in New York, the whole state of Florida, and the entire state of California. Mmm….homes of the rich and famous would be protected. Tea party people…will die.

Now, WHO should we believe attacked us if this happened? Sounds like an Obama dream.

As I was looking at the map, I wondered, since all our military bases are “protected” why the Midwest? Because of the food? And why all of Mexico?

FOX said it would be easy for Iran to launch an EMP from a boat offshore. Is this a statement to put fear in our hearts that Iran is dangerous? (Ron Paul, as you know, thinks it all overrated) And should we expect a strike on Iran soon? Is this the, “They have EMP’s!,  scenario? They probably do, but it’s getting so you can’t trust OUR elected people, and if you look at the polls, I’m not alone in this thought.

Last year, there was a special on CNN with all the past and present National Security people doing a mock EMP attack scenario TV.

It scared the EMP’s out of me.

Leading the experts at the mock attack was Michael Chertoff, former Homeland Security Secretary and founder of the Cheroff groups, a security consulting firm whose clients include manufactures of that fine example of American invention…the full body scanner.

Also on the panel, was none other than Bill Richardson, who as Clinton’s Secretary of Energy, went to N. Korea and supplied them with plutonian, on the orders from his boss. The North Koreans turned around and made that plutonian into nukes. It was Bill Richardson who also appointed Wen Ho Lee to Los Alamos, where he was suspected to have given the Chinese government nuclear secrets.

But…what if Newt is right?

Yousaf M. Butt, (notice first name) a consultant with Federation of American Scientists, who last year did a lengthy analysis of EMP for The Space Review, a weekly online journal, said, “If terrorists want to do something serious, they’ll use a weapon of mass destruction — not mass disruption.”

Yet Mr. Gingrich’s warnings remain persistently urgent. “Without adequate preparation, we would basically lose our civilization in a matter of seconds.” The prospect of relatively short-range missiles being used to mount an EMP strike compounds the challenge to our modest anti-missile systems. They may or may not be able to contend with missiles launch And that’s the scary part.

Politicians have been using primal fear for a long now just to get their bills passed, and to take our freedoms away. So, that now…you can’t be sure if a politician is using fear to get elected, or if they are truly being sincere.

Nevertheless, Nobody Thinks…Look what a  terrible job our government did protecting us on 9/11, Katrina, the Golf Oil Spill, and the Wall Street debacle. Their track record is atrocious.

Nobody also thinks that all this money that is disappearing has gone into building fine protections for the elites if and when the times comes. It’s also sadly true, that they are hiring people to man the FEMA camps all over the country.  

If you go by their actions, Occam’s Razor is the only choice you have. (Gives me an excuse to buy more peanut butter! )

It’s sharp on both sides, no matter how you slice it.  

(GOD, I HATE writing such depressing stuff. Next blog..funny…promise.)
