In the latter half of the program, analyst Craig Hulet talked about electromagnetic warfare systems and the dangers of such weaponry. The story first came to Hulet's attention when he learned of a Navy plan to set up a range in the Pacific Northwest which would allegedly test counteractive measures against ground-based electromagnetic weaponry that might be used to disrupt American fighter jets. Further investigation by Hulet revealed similar Naval training is already being done in at least seventeen states throughout America. Despite their attempts to portray the program as akin to radar, he stressed that "make no mistake, these are weapons" and that agitation of aircraft is one of the least potent uses for such technology.
Although this weaponry is considered 'non-lethal,' Hulet cautioned that it "has the ability to do unbelievable damage to human beings." Should electromagnetic weapons be turned on people, he said, they can induce dizziness, nausea, and unconsciousness as well as "fry the water under your skin without burning you, until you are screaming in pain." To that end, Hulet reported that attempts to use these 'non-lethal' systems in Iraq and Afghanistan were halted by the US government after targets suffered horrific deaths from the weapons. While the Army foresees other potential sinister uses for this technology such as mind control and DNA fragmentation, Hulet marveled that "the American people haven't got a clue that this is going on."

These mobile emiters simulate anti aircraft radars for dummy targeting by aircraft ??
So they spot them around the countryside and let the aircraft sensors find and "'kill"them?
Or are these antipersonell type emitters too?
Or is that just a side effect?
Either way long term exposure is ...not good
Known as the “CHAMP,” or Counter-electronics High-powered Microwave Advanced Missile Project, the American military project is an attempt to develop a device with all the power of a nuclear weapon but without the death and destruction to people and infrastructure that such a weapon causes. Theoretically, the new missile system would pinpoint buildings and knock out their electrical grids, plunging the target into darkness and general disconnectedness.
The project has been in the works for a few years now, and has met with significant success in preliminary trials. In 2012, it was reported that a CHAMP mission in Utah managed to hit and subsequently disable seven separate targets in one mission, demonstrating its accuracy and precision. Indeed, it is this capacity to target individual buildings and not cities at large that makes the new weapon so effective, as it would allow military members to cut off electricity supplies to enemy parties while keeping civilians out of the melee.

Yea, im pretty sure my iPhone is involved in electromagnetic warfare, just when you think it cant get worse because McDonalds got the whole order wrong after three times of explaining,then you got the green men playing around with electromagnetic mumbo jumbo. FTW
Test it in Iraq or Syria instead?

They're not testing CHAMP, they're working with EA-18s out of Whidby Island. They just replaced the old EA-6B with them so the units that have them are developing tactics and learning what they can do.

On a recent C2C show, Craig Hulet discussed this topic and described in detail the Navy's SOP in dealing with local elected officials and residents:

I found a supportive and relevant article on this topic as well.

So you must be from the US- and you consider anyone from the middle east as sub human, whether combatant or civilian.
Way to go
