DID RUSSIA JUST USE A NON-NUCLEAR EMP WEAPON IN THE UKRAINE?

The reader will have noted that I have placed this story in the "Babylon's Banksters" slot on this website, while the story headline is all about Russia perhaps having operationally tested a non-nuclear electromagnetic pulse (EMP) weapon in the Ukraine. The story was found and shared by L.G.L.R. (with our gratitude), because it not only raises a lot of "high octane speculative implications and questions" but also because it occasioned one of my even wilder and woollier full-on-gallop-to-the-end-of-the-speculation-twig-and-triple-twisting-somersaulting-dive into the canyon below. (Eat your heart out, Wile E. Coyote. )

Firstly, the story:

Did Russia Just Test a New Weapon in Dniepropetrovsk?

Now there is an interesting statement made in this article, one which prompted L.G.L.R. to send along another article in response to it. The statement is this:

I have credible information with video evidence, that Russia has just tested their new Plasma Burst EMP weapon, again in Dnipro in the night from October 1st to 2nd. These videos are all random dash cam captures and one fixed-webcam monitoring Dnipro. So they are genuine videos. I believe the blackout was caused by the EMP disrupting electric infrastructure. However it is unclear if other missiles and drones were also involved in damaging infrastructure. Upon a high energy pulse within our atmosphere, such force tends to tear Nitrogen and Oxygen Molecules apart. Then, upon recombining to N2 and O2 Molecules (Molecular Recombination), they emit radiation in the blue to ultra violet spectrum. That’s exactly why we perceive lightning as blueish.

There are no reliable publications about a working concept of Plasma Burst EMP. However, we know that the Soviets have been researching Plasma since more than 80 years. Being able to maneuver a Mach10 or 12 Hypersonic Vessel is based upon superior Russian knowledge about Plasma. At such speeds, the Plasma around the vessel is a radio communication barrier. Just like the Space Shuttle when re-entering the atmosphere, there is a 5 Minute radio silence.

We also know that the Russians were conducting intensive research to create such nuclear free EMP on a large scale energy level. On the 2nd Oct. they have given us proof of evidence once again in Dnipro. (Emphasis added)

There you have it: in conventional wisdom, the effects of an electromagnetic pulse can only be achieved through the detonation of a nuclear bomb, even though the effects of electromagnetic pulse can occur in nature, as with a massive solar flare.  But could the effect be artificially engineered and generated without the necessity of blowing up an atom- or hydrogen-bomb?

Here's where the second article comes in:

How does a Plasma Burst EMP work ? what's the minimum charge acceleration needed ? Can the burst be shaped like microwave beams with high directionality ?

The answer to those questions is given in the very opening paragraphs:

How a Plasma Burst EMP Works

A Plasma Burst EMP (Electromagnetic Pulse) is a directed-energy effect generated by creating a localized plasma explosion in the atmosphere using ultra-short, high-intensity laser pulses (typically femtosecond-duration pulses from terawatt-class lasers). This is distinct from nuclear EMPs (which rely on gamma-ray ionization) or traditional non-nuclear EMPs (like explosively pumped flux compression generators). The plasma burst acts as a transient antenna, rapidly accelerating charged particles (primarily electrons) and producing a broadband electromagnetic pulse that can disrupt or damage electronics, sensors, and communications systems.

Mechanism

1. Laser Filamentation and Plasma Formation:
   • A high-peak-power laser pulse (e.g., 1-800 mJ energy per pulse, wavelengths in the near-infrared like 800 nm) is fired into the air.
   • Due to the Kerr nonlinear optical effect, the laser beam self-focuses, increasing its intensity until it exceeds the threshold for multiphoton ionization of air molecules (N₂ and O₂).
   • This ionization creates a cascade of free electrons and ions, forming a thin plasma filament (diameter ~100-200 μm) that propagates over kilometers without diffracting significantly.

Can this effect be directed and controlled? Answer: theoretically, yes, and the technique is to use lasers to create the channel through which the plasma burst travels; think of it as "directed lightning" (grounding all those ancient depictions of the gods hurling [and thus directing] thunderbolts in science itself):

Can the Burst Be Shaped Like Microwave Beams with High Directionality?

Yes, Plasma Burst EMPs can achieve high directionality, often resembling focused microwave or THz beams, due to the underlying laser delivery and plasma physics:

• Inherent Directionality: The EMP radiates primarily forward in a narrow cone (~10-30° half-angle) along the laser axis, as the plasma burst is localized and the accelerating electrons move coherently in that direction. This is more directional than omnidirectional nuclear EMPs.
• Beam Shaping Techniques:
  • Laser Control: Use spatial light modulators (SLMs), deformable mirrors, and gratings to precondition the beam—adjusting divergence, spectral phase, and polarization—to precisely control filament length and collapse point (e.g., ±1 m accuracy over 100 m range).
  • Pointing/Tracking: Gimbal-mounted optics or acousto-optic deflectors enable real-time targeting, maintaining <1 mrad beam wander.
  • Microwave-Like Focusing: By chirping the laser pulse (varying frequency) or using multiple filaments in an array, the EMP can be shaped into tighter beams (e.g., 5-10° divergence) or scanned like a phased-array radar. THz components behave like microwaves, allowing "painting" a target without collateral spread.

Could the Russians be deploying and testing such a technique operationally? Certainly. Indeed, one of the people this author has met personally over the years was a plasma physicist (whose name I shall not divulge but who would be readily recognizable to many readers) who was involved in very similar laser-directed "plasma channel" research.

Ok, so where's the high octane running-nose-dive of speculation?

Most readers will recall that for years I've been warning about the dangers of digital "currency" and its susceptibility to electromagnetic pulse. One day you could be a veritable "King Midas" with a pile of money stored in electronic blips, and the next day all of that, including all records of it, could be potentially wiped out by an electromagnetic pulse. It would by like storing all of your money in a magnetic drive memory, and then storing the memory drive next to a powerful magnet: woops: memory wiped, money gone. So sorry, next customer please. Indeed, I've been so preoccupied with this potential danger that I have often commented on and even blogged about why so many nations around the world are going to the expense and cost of refurbishing steam railroad locomotives to the extent that, like the Union Pacific Railroad in the USA, entire locomotives works have been created to restore and maintain the monsters, thus restoring a minimal manufacturing capability to actually make them. They then steam around the country - like the Union Pacific's restored "Big Boy" and "Challenger" articulated 4-8-8-4 and 4-6-6-4 locomotives - pulling sight-seeing passenger cars, and occasionally (to make the whole enterprise profitable), pulling long freight trains.  Why go to all the expense to restore such machines, to train the crews to run and maintain them, and to create the infrastructure also needed to do so? After all, steam locomotives require water towers, cleaning crews, and so on, dotted around the landscape.

The answer is simple: a steam locomotive is entirely an analogue machine. It will still run, and pull freight, long after an electromagnetic pulse has disabled a typical diesel-electric locomotive, or your car, or your local bank's electronic ledgers, and so on. It's an ironic thought: that the technology impervious to "digital progress" is an older analogue technology. Indeed, the restoration of steam locomotives suggests also some sort of inside knowledge and planning against the electromagnetic pulse scenario. We'll get back to that in a minute. But note,  the same holds true of our monetary and fiscal technologies: physical media of exchange, like coins or bits of paper, are relatively impervious to digital interdictions; blips on a computer screen are not.

And that brings me to advance my wildest scenario yet, in this regard, and it's one that should have occurred to me long ago, because it seems so obvious. For many years, since the financial crisis of 2008, I've been warning about all the "bad paper" sloshing around in the financial system, those credit default swaps and derivatives and "mortgage backed securities" and tranches of tranches and bundles of bundles that have ballooned the derivatives to orders of magnitude more money than the worth of the entire gross domestic product of the entire planet. How does one get rid of that enormous drag effect on the economy and finances of the world?

One method, the scenario I've been suggesting, is to "rebalance" those books with the acquisition of enough hard assets to do it: enter all those multi-quadrillion-dollar asteroids out there, just waiting to be mined.  Think of it as the "Spanish galleon solution" to all that Venetian "cooking of the books through an overly-financialized economy." Failing that, I've also suggested that one could simply claim to have gone out there and gained access to all those hard assets. Such a solution would be a very risky, and very short term, solution, but the game might be played.

But there's another solution, one suggested by the possibility of a non-nuclear electro-magnetic pulse technology. For years we've been hearing about "the great reset", which, upon examination, appears to be nothing more than "the great accounting trick"; it's not really a reset at all, at least, not in the sense of the ancient Sumerian-Babylonian practice of the jubilee(see my book Babylon's Banksters), and the breaking of the tablets ceremony that cancelled all debt because the tablets, the records, recording that debt were broken and the memory of it wiped out.  The books were literally rebalanced by resetting all of them to zero, and beginning the game all over again.

So perhaps, behind all the current nuclear war scare, the agenda once again is really financial, and the debt and bad paper trap is so immense and intractable that the "powers that be" have decided that they need a real "great reset", one that will "break the tablets" and wipe out the records, so that the whole thing can begin again. And electromagnetic pulses, whether nuclear or non-nuclear, might be just the hammer needed to break those tablets.

See you on the flip side...
