I completely agree, those partners need to take action, and I am sure they will. And yes, bad things happen in wars. And I also think we will be prepared.

My point, as I have said, was not to fear monger, or say the world is ending, just to let people be aware of things that are going on - most people are never aware of the world of Cyberwarfare. I find it interesting, having been involve in some of it tangentially. I thought people here might like to know what is happening and how our government is protecting us.
