Submission + - An Israeli Electronic/Cyber Strike Could End Iran, (yahoo.com)
MarkWhittington writes: "If and when (and it is increasingly seeming like the latter) Israel attacks Iran, the first sign will not consist of explosions rising from Iranian nuclear and missile sites. Instead the first sign of an attack will be Iran's power and communications going down.
In effect, Iran as it exists today will die, not with a bang, but with a whimper as the lights go out and as the phones go silent. Israel has developed a sophisticated electronic and cyber war force that would take down Iran's power grid and phone system in the first moments of an attack. Welcome to the 21st Century way of waging war, which in one way could be as devastating as a nuclear attack."
