The war has been here all along.

Grid down by any means is my number one. Be it EMP, Cyber attack, or well coordinated sabotage. In any conflict I would expect any or all our enemies to attempt to bring our grid down. It's vulnerable. I have been saying for years war is coming and I am considering the Russian/Ukraine war as just the beginning. With so many of our troops and war capabilities in such close proximity to theirs, this could get out of hand fast.
Add to that, Putin has a problem. His forces have under-performed and he has not divided NATO as planned. In fact, has achieved the opposite. If anything he has strengthened NATO's resolve and has many of them building up their military. Finland and Sweden are considering joining NATO. He is under pressure from the oligarchs and his own people because of the sanctions so he will need to finish this fast and decisively or risk rebellion from within.
Meanwhile, China is taking careful measure of the situation and may use this opportunity to strike at Taiwan. The fat kid in NK is shooting off missiles again and I am sure Iran and our friendly neighborhood terrorists are hard at work as well.
The perfect storm? Perhaps. Sure seems to be a lot of fingers on a lot of buttons. Buckle up guys.

I'm not as finished as yourself. I was until I moved to the sticks.

Adding to all of this of course is the boob and thief in the White House. Does anyone have confidence in this ass wipe and his administration going forward? This guy is an accident looking for a place to happen. Weak and feckless this administration could sleepwalk us into WWIII all by themselves.

Nah, they will walk us into the "threat" of war, to use that as an excuse to trample The Constitution some more...

"They" don't want war, they just want all the power they can grab "as if" there was a war.

Could be, but that's a damn dangerous move. "They" may or may not succeed at grabbing more power... but the attempt to 'walk us into a threat of war' will necessarily ramp up the 'danger level' screaming - and Putin, watching this, might see it as an attempted power grab by 'them' over 'us' - OR he might think we're genuinely ramping things up. Either way... too many balls in the air for this kind of BS move. JMO.

It won't be the power grid. Despite the exaggerated fears out there, it isn't as vulnerable as many propose and isn't as much of a target.
You want people to turn on one another, disrupt the supply chain; target the logistics warehouses which are significantly easier targets. With the rise in "Just-in-time," methodology, stores don't have more than two days of goods.
Kill the power . . . . most places have backup generators, even grocery stores, now. In fact, they can even take credit/debit cards on backup (I used to install those systems). Sure, people would be upset if they didn't have power, but they would be rioting if they cannot get food.

It is treason against mankind to hold a knife to a man’s throat and dictate how he must live his life."

So that I understand . . . . you support the Russian invasion then?
Us adults know the world isn't black & white, but Ukraine was still a sovereign nation that was just invaded by another country.
