    As is see this world map maybe the US should disconnect from the rest of the world.
    That is if the attacks are only hitting the US as shown on the map.
    I think I do see a little light yellow over in Europe.
    We could have one big link between the US/CA and Europe to include the UK and yes down under as well.

    What a clickbait article title.
     
    "new weapons" and I'm sure the New York legislature is already purposing a bill to ban them.
