Episode 26 : China weaponizes space as the U.S. loses its bearings | Guest: Dr. Stephen Bryen

In Episode 26 of the Caroline Glick Mideast News Hour, Caroline is joined by Dr. Stephen Bryen a former Pentagon official who played a key role in the development of the Strategic Defense Initiative. Dr. Bryen discussed China’s recent testing of a hypersonic missile and its launch of a satellite killing satellite and their consequences for U.S.

Last month the Financial Times reported that China tested a hypersonic missile in August. And this month the Gatestone Institute reported that China tested a satellite killing satellite. We discussed the technologies, and where the U.S. stands vis-a-vis China and Russia, (spoiler alert: it’s way behind). We also discussed the U.S.’s options for defending itself and how Israel is helping the U.S. make up for the massive gaps in its anti-missile defenses.

We then shifted gears and discussed the impediments to U.S. strategic planning and what a rational U.S. policy vs. China would look like.

It was a sobering and fascinating discussion.
