In an already tense strategic climate, the introduction in the U.S. by President Trump of a "Golden Dome" missile defense system increases the threat of nuclear war with Russia and China, rather than enhancing security. Dr. Theodore Postol, who is a renowned expert on modern warfare and nuclear weapons, will discuss with Helga Zepp-LaRouche his conclusions about the danger inherent in the design of the system.

In his review of the proposal, Postol concludes that 1.) this proposal of the Trump Administration poses an enormous danger to geopolitical stability; and 2), the second part of the Trump Administration’s proposal, which is to expand the ground-based missile defense system, would simply increase the size of a defense system that now provably has no missile defense capability.

However, he believes that rather than serving as a deterrent, the appearance of an expanded missile defense program might well result in the Russians and Chinese feeling compelled to expand their offense of nuclear forces to offset perceptions that the United States might have some residual capability to negate their nuclear deterrents.

When combined with the insistence of Germany's new Chancellor Merz that the limits be lifted to the range of long-range missiles provided to Ukraine, we are entering a moment of extreme instability which heightens the risk of nuclear war.

This discussion follows last weekend's Schiller Institute conference which focused on the "LaRouche Solution" to the strategic crisis, centered around the battle to establish a new strategic and development architecture to replace the collapsing Unipolar Order.
