EMP Attack: Overlooked Catastrophe

When Iran successfully launched its first domestically made satellite into orbit on Feb. 1, U.S. State Department official Robert Wood said Iran’s activities could “possibly lead to the development of ballistic missiles” and were of “great concern.”

French Foreign Ministry spokesman Eric Chevallier said France was “very concerned” about the launch.

UK Foreign Office Minister Bill Rammell said the launch underlined the UK’s “serious concerns about Iran’s intentions.” Then they resumed their focus on their various economic implosions where “concerned” had been elevated to “alarmed.”

What continues to astonish me is how little Western nations seem to grasp the tremendous danger that Iran is signaling in plain view. I have produced at least two television shows and as many articles in which I sought to warn of Iran’s intention to use its rapidly developing nuclear warheads in an EMP attack against Israel, the EU and the U.S.

In an article I wrote for WorldNetDaily in July 2007, I noted a 1998 Iranian missile test that “failed, detonating some 40 seconds after launch after reaching an altitude of 180 miles. This is the approximate ideal altitude to detonate a nuclear warhead for an EMP attack on a country.”

I was astonished at how little attention Western military planners gave Iran’s successful satellite launch. What little attention it did get focused on the probability that Iran could use the satellite launch technology to build an ICBM.

1 in 3 American Christians Say Jesus Sinned

Half of Americans who call themselves “Christian” don’t believe Satan exists and fully one-third are confident that Jesus sinned while on Earth, according to a new Barna Group poll.

Another 40 percent say they do not have a responsibility to share their Christian faith with others, and 25 percent “dismiss the idea that the Bible is accurate in all of the principles it teaches,” the organization reports.

Pollster George Barna said the results have huge implications.

“Americans are increasingly comfortable picking and choosing what they deem to be helpful and accurate theological views and have become comfortable discarding the rest of the teachings in the Bible,” he said.
