Is Iran planning on detonating an A-Bomb high over the US to cripple
all our transistor-based technology?

I would think that Israel is the only threat Iran is planning to
neutralize. Those POS Chinese missiles are no threat to anyone in the
Western Hemisphere.

My Start Page, when I open Internet Explorer, is actually a page of popular
links in table form that I made using Microsoft Word, and the page is
stored on the drive. It works out nice, opens very quick, and doesn't call
for a connection when Internet Explorer is opened. I have animated images
dispersed throughout the page to give it life.

World Net Daily used to be one of the links on the start page, but no more.
I deleted it sometime ago and have never regretted it. This article shows
why.

Obviously we live in a very large country, maybe they could pull this off
over a country of insignificant size, but not the U.S.

I have relegated World Net Daily to the usual source of Neo-Con news
available in so many places.

Actually, the idea of terrorists detonating a nuclear bomb over the US
to wipe out solid state technology dates from 2000, when it was used as
the premise in a TV show called Dark Angel. In the show, "terrorists"
detonate a nuclear bomb "80 miles" above the US in 2010, wiping out all
solid state technology and turning the country into an impoverished
third world country that's a cross between a fascist state (not quite
Nazi Germany; maybe Franco's Spain) and a banana republic. The show is
set in 2019 and follows the efforts of a rich dissident and a
genetically engineered superhuman (Michael Weatherly and Jessica Alba,
respectively, who married in real life during the show's run) to
overthrow the corrupt and oppressive postapocalypse government. Dark
Angel lasted two seasons, but the cost of recreating a postapocalypse US
week after week took its toll and the show was canceled due to sticker
shock on the part of Fox execs. I see that the idea of using a nuke to
bring the US to its knees in this manner hasn't gone away. It's gone
from fiction to conspiraloon "fact".

Meh... if the world really was coming to an end, why bother? If it ends for
me, it ends for thee.

the Waterworld movie said when that fire (he saw the Light!) was coming

Actually it dates from the late 1950's or early 1960's when they detonated
a bomb several hundred miles above Johnson Atoll and blew out street
lights in Hawaii 700? miles to the north.

Only about one or two percent of the bomb's energy is converted to
the EMP. It come from the interaction when the X-ray wavefront of the
explosion slams into the atoms in the upper atmosphere, and the displaced
electrons get jerked. Add in the earth's magnetic field and you end up
with a pulse generated in a pancake shaped area about 1000 miles across
(depending on the altitude of the explosion). This pulse has a very
short risetime, under 100 nanoseconds and then tails off over several
microseconds.

But the key point is that you need an antenna that picks it up.
If the antennas (intended or accidental) are short enough, they won't
collect enough energy to harm the equipment. And the equipment has to
be sensitive in the first place. Pretty much like dealing with nearby
lightning strikes.

The real scary thing about it is,It could happen.China and North Korea
and other rogue states/countries are getting better and better at
building long range intercontinental missiles.I still Say World Net
Daily is a Good news website.But,to each their own,I always say.

Cuhulin, I would indeed be more worried about China or North Korea than
Iran, though I don't believe that a single weapon would be effective.
