Cette conférence de presse parrainée par le Center for Security Policy avait pour but de présenter devant la presse américaine les préoccupations majeures entourant la sécurité de nos infrastructures électriques et de transport d’énergie. Des attaques sur nos réseaux, effectuées à l’aide d’armes électromagnétiques ou de bombes nucléaires, ou encore simplement des tempêtes magnétiques récurrentes émanant du soleil, pourraient causer des dommages sur nos systèmes d’énergie, les détruire partiellement de façon temporaire ou même complètement de façon définitive. Le groupe de conférenciers ici réunis essaient d’alerter l’opinion publique et celle des décideurs politiques à prendre au sérieux ce type de menace. À cet effet, le plus grave manquement professionnel en ce domaine a été manifesté par l’organisme représentant les diverses compagnies productrices d’énergie et d’électricité, la NERC. Selon les experts du présent panel, qui se présentent sous le nom de « The Secure the Grid Coalition », la NERC ne prend pas au sérieux les problèmes reliés à la sécurité de nos réseaux et ne fait aucun effort pour corriger la situation. Que ce soient pour des raisons financières, de pouvoir ou simplement par paresse ou par négligence, ce genre d’attitude ne pourra que nous attirer des ennuis à moyen terme. Un changement de cap s’impose. Le Congrès américain devrait légiférer pour, par exemple, rendre obligatoire la mise en examen et l’approbation des procédures de sécurité de ces compagnies par le gouvernement américain, le Department of Homeland Security et le Pentagone, sans quoi elles pourraient se voir mises sous tutelle. Un dossier à suivre.
Kenneth Timmerman: « The confidence that users of intelligence today in the United States have in the ability of the intelligence community to successfully connect the dots is very low » . (around 21:00, part 2)
This press conference held on November 1st 2011 in Washington, D.C., is literally a godsend. At a time when the vast majority of our elites are asleep, stunned and dumbed down, when both the mainstream and the alternative media are spreading disinformation and propaganda to satisfy their aims, insisting on trivial events, it is long overdue that a panel of experts like this take relevant intelligence and present it to the population. By going public like this, these experts are doing a us, the people, a big favor. Because, let’s speak frankly here, normally, that would be the job of our elected politicians and officials and their teams to keep us appraised on such matters. Unfortunately, in these times of never-ending entertainment and petty pleasures, bad news or bad information are constantly swept under the rug…until their reality hit us with violence through terrorism, riots and wars. We live in a culture where we don’t want to see bad things and bad realities, so we keep trying to ignore them when they surface and postpone their confrontation.
It is that very same attitude that allowed somebody like Hitler to rise, expand his grip on Europe and eventually to seize control of the whole continent, while our elites stood by silently, faking not to see its reality, thinking maybe that the threat would disappear if they were to ignore it. And today, we are facing a similar problem. Ahmadinejad and his government has shown more than once its true colours. He leads a regime that is anti-semitic, anti-Israel, holocaust denier, hostile to democracy, to America and to European culture and civilization, encouraging and funding terrorism and boycott campaigns, willingly admitting to desire wiping out Israel from off the map and to destroy America, the Great Satan. And this same regime is pursuing a nuclear program. If it is not enough to raise your eyebrows and give you cold chills down your spine, I don’t know what will.
This event by EMPact America, an organization for citizens concerned about nuclear and electro-magnetic pulse attacks, regroups the skills and experience of several individuals belonging to the intelligence community. The first speaker, Reza Kahlili, presents himself as an ex-CIA undercover agent in the Revolutionary Guards of Iran. He has infiltrated the Guards and spied for the CIA during the 80’s and 90’s. He appears in this press conference masked with sunglasses, which renders his authentification impossible. At some point, you have to make a decision whether or not you consider him and his testimony credible. Following Kahlili, we hear, in order, Lieutenant Colonel Tony Shaffer, President of EMPact America Dr. Peter Vincent Pry, CEO of Foundation For Democracy in Iran Kenneth Timmerman, ex-CIA agent Chet Nagle, and President of GeoStrategic Analysis Peter Huessy.
