Analyst's note: Absolutely must watch. Despite what you may think, our federal government is NOT providing for our common defense as required by our U.S. Constitution. They are preparing to do even less. You owe it to yourself and your children to watch these films.
Let me get straight to the point. I am very concerned about the reality of those who planning an electromagnetic pulse attack against this United States. At this point, we are totally defenseless against such an attack.
While our politicians are "politicking" and spending our tax money and that money coming from our children yet unborn, the ability to essentially "unplug" this nation for an extended period of time and create a new dark age is known to exist. The only thing that seems to explain their inaction beside their greed and desire for power is either they are scared into inaction or they believe they should simply "... be merry, for tomorrow they die." In either case, the American people stand to lose it all. The Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP), of which I'm speaking about here, could come from a naturally occurring solar flare from our sun according to NASA (we've already been known to have one such natural event in the 1800's) -- or according to other multiple sources -- from a single a high-altitude nuclear weapon exploded over the United States.
Such a weapon could be launched from ship(s) off our shores from a second-rate missile system. A Russian company is marketing a devastating new cruise missile system which can be hidden inside a shipping container
This is not a newly recognized threat. We now have Iran building nukes (some experts actually believe they already have 30 to 40 simple nukes -- see BOMBSHELL ALLEGATIONS...), and N. Korea already has them.
It is estimated that 9 out 10 American would die within a few short months of an EMP attack. The impact would be almost unbelievable.
We learn the following from U.S. Rep. Roscoe Bartlett, (R- MD) "While one part of the federal government was warning us of possible solar electromagnetic pulse (EMP) damage to our electric grid, a key Senate commission approved a bill to ignore this threat," Bartlett has estimated that $100M could do much to save America from such damage. If we wait till after the fact the cost could be $1 trillion to 2 trillion,

"33 Minutes: Protecting America in the New Missile Age is a one-hour documentary produced by The Heritage Foundation that tells the story of the very real threat foreign enemies pose to every one of us. The truth is brutal - no matter where on Earth a missile is launched from it would take 33 Minutes or less to hit the U.S. target it was programmed to destroy.
Nuclear proliferation around the world, and the threat of a ballistic missile attack of some kind is mounting as more and more countries obtain nuclear technology. The ongoing threat toward America is also accelerating due to the fact that there are many rogue nations and terrorist organizations who either have or are seeking ballistic missiles and nuclear technology.
The challenges of protecting America and its citizens for President Obama's administration are great. Featuring rare footage and in-depth interviews with leading experts in the field, 33 Minutes is the definitive documentary exposing the untold vulnerability we all face and the action plan necessary to revive a strategic missile defense system that America uniquely can develop, maintain, and employ for its own defense and the peace-loving world's security."
