The threat of an electromagnetic pulse event or attack on the United States that could kill tens of millions of people has prompted George Noory, the host of “Coast to Coast AM,” the most-listened-to overnight radio program in North America, to launch a campaign to prepare a defense.
“I implore all individual states, the president and members of Congress to immediately develop a plan to protect our power grid,” said Noory. “The preservation of our great nation and the lives of its people are critical.”
WND has reported extensively on the issue and is a partner in the campaign.
“I want to thank WND and Joseph Farah for joining this effort, which is imperative to our future,” Noory said.
The goal is to protect and insulate the U.S. power grid against an EMP event or attack from a solar flare, nuclear weapon or ballistic missile, all of which could endanger the lives of millions of Americans, according to Noory.
The work follows on the heels of a recent report from NASA scientists that Earth narrowly avoided a catastrophic X-class solar flare on July 23, 2012.
According to WND senior staff writer F. Michael Maloof, whose book “A Nation Forsaken” addresses the EMP threat, the United States could be turned into a virtual 19th century agrarian society.
The problem is that an EMP would take out virtually all electronics. The controls that enable gas to be pumped into a vehicle, systems that control underground pipelines, the computers controlling financial systems, the electronics in vehicles, communications, emergency services, law enforcement and much more could all be rendered useless.

Maloof wrote recently:”Under such chaotic conditions, there is no doubt that gangs may begin roaming neighborhoods and more rural locations, and individuals need to be able to protect their families and possessions. It will mean having a firearm as part of families’ survival items.
“People who have experienced the impact of temporarily having no electricity and no means of transportation in times of floods, hurricanes and past natural disasters know what such chaotic conditions are like,” he continued. “In the case of an EMP, people need to place themselves into a 19th century existence and figure out what they will need in a household, such as a supply of stored food, water and medications on which they may need to survive for weeks, months and possibly years.”
Experts forecast an event could affect some 160 million people, take anywhere from four to 10 years to recover and cost upward of $2 trillion.

I got my Spine and Orange Crush!
George Snoory pumping out the fear for his Sirius Masters.
I lived In the Country and our House did not have any Running water or a restroom Up until i was about 16 years old. I am 66 now. We had only light bulbs and an electric stove. We had a fireplace for heat.
We hauled water for Baths and we had a well for drinking and cooking. We had an outhouse and from time to time we burnt our waste like the Military does.
I can live without any ELECTRICITY. Big towns have generators to run the water and sewer plants in case of service failures. Do NOT LET THEM SCARE YOU. People lived for thousands of years without utilities and we can do it again if we need to.
GOD BLESS AMERICA !!!!!!!
