We have various think tanks (like the Brookings Institute in D.C., etc.) who think up these wildest things in how we could be attacked. And then the military and the think tanks will come up with a plan and several contingiousy plans. <BR/><BR/>I was going to address what "findalis" already stated. In which our military, govt, and other important facilities are well shielded from any kind of EMP. As well as, Iran is a very long way off from achieve this kind of technology too. And they would be dealt with accordingly if they came across these kinds of weapons. <BR/><BR/>See, our adversaries i.e., china, russia and so on...believe in M.A.D. - Mutually Assured Destruction. And none of them want this. Whereas, Iran and other Islamic threats believe it's they're destiny to cause this death and destruction for the religious ideologies. So therefore M.A.D., has no meaning or purpose for them. That's the scary thing we are confronted with when it comes to islam and their agenda/objectives. <BR/><BR/>All I can say is that 2/3's of the worlds GUNS are in america and in private hands. Now add in the military arsonal. And there is no way another nation is going to attempt to come onto our shores with divisions, brigades of armies. Without no doubt, I'm sure private citizens would organize a milita to assist our armed forces in defending our lands and interest. <BR/><BR/>I would like to suggest that people who do own guns. That you simply stock up on ammo for your favorite hand gun and rifle/assault weapon. Since ammo can be expensive. I suggest people just buy one box per month or every other week if you can. And in a short time span, you'll have a nice reserve of ammo. Because if all hell does break lose. First thing you'll want to do. Is to protect what is most valuable to you...i.e., family, property, food and other supplies. <BR/><BR/>Now for the people who don't own a weapon. I would highly recommend you at the very least purchase a handgun which is a .40 caliber. A .40 cal. is powerful enough for self-defense in close quarter combat situations. And the magazine will hold usually 14-16 bullets. If you do get a handgun. Please get at least 2-3 extra magazines as to easily reload if necessary. If you go online or to a gun show you can get the mag. for your weapon at a reason price. <BR/><BR/>You don't have to get an H&K or Sig and spend a fortune. But, you will want a decent and reliable handgun. Something like the Tauras 24/7 model: $350 or a Springfield XD: $400...this is a very good weapon for the money. <BR/><BR/>Just be prepared for anything. Since our enemy (ALL of Islam) is hiding within our borders. An attempt to take us over will be fought from the inside. So they're here (muslims) inside our nation as I write this comment. And they are preparing for a war on many different levels.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5041404668013008872.post-28419470761593264302008-08-02T16:29:00.000-07:002008-08-02T16:29:00.000-07:00There is another blogger who goes by rg.

And the race to find shielding for electronics was also started.<BR/><BR/>Until Iran can actually develop a missile that can be called an ICBM, this is only speculation.<BR/><BR/>I suspect that Iran is planning to put its Shahab-3 missiles on a freighter then fire it. Or they can just load a nuke on a ship and sail it into a nation's waters. A person could then detonate the bomb easily.<BR/><BR/>And I suspect that Iran would try for Washington DC. NY has the UN and they would need their fellow Muslims to support them in this. Washington DC would cripple (but not destroy) the US government.Findalishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02881549378886491540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5041404668013008872.post-87882376905903851412008-08-01T12:54:00.000-07:002008-08-01T12:54:00.000-07:00For my part, I don't see a trace of inevitability....For my part, I don't see a trace of inevitability. As it stands now, Obama is tied with McCain when everybody on both sides of the debate thinks he should be way ahead. Once the debates come around, I am pretty confident that McCain will eviscerate him, since he doesn't do too well without a team of speech writers behind him. All McCain needs is a list of Obama's own words and he'll be on the defensive the whole time, and all McCain needs are the swing votes, which ought to be in the bag once they see Obama getting hammered mercilessly rather than singing to choirs. <BR/><BR/>On Findalis's first comment, it's pretty strange that the people talking about the US's huge vulnerability to EMP attacks didn't mention the pinpoint accuracy the would-be warhead would need to have. In fact, the POV they paint makes it sound like all it has to do is be at a certain altitude to inflict heavy damage.Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10363879464584026428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5041404668013008872.post-55111958166974172112008-08-01T11:20:00.000-07:002008-08-01T11:20:00.000-07:00Fidalis, how cool would that be?Mr. Gardner - I de...Fidalis, how cool would that be?<BR/><BR/>Mr. Gardner - I decided to take a break from political blogging for a while, but I watch your site and several others everyday.
