Russia Could “Blind” the USA Warns Ex-CIA Director

 Even the casual observer should understand we are living in dangerous times.  Remember when Trump commissioned a new branch of the military called Space Force?  It really does seem like Jesus is allowing the Restrainer to hold back the collapse of many things.  We are on the brink of much mayhem and chaos and continue to pray it doesn’t all break apart until that Restrainer is removed at the rapture.

Leon Panetta, who served as the director of the CIA and the secretary of Defense under President Barack Obama, said Russia could "blind" the US by using a nuclear-capable weapon to disable satellites in space.

Panetta spoke to CNN on Wednesday about an unnamed threat to US national security.

Multiple media reports, citing US officials, said the threat was about Russia developing a nuclear weapon that could be deployed against satellites.

Satellites are pivotal for transmitting information ranging from cellphone data to military communications.

On the CNN segment, Panetta spoke in hypothetical terms about how such a system could work, adding that he didn't have direct knowledge of the situation.

"If Russia could blind our ability to be able to gather that kind of information, make no mistake about it, that would be an act of war because it would threaten our national security," Panetta said.

He added that the US was likely developing a similar capacity to target satellites and defend its own from attacks.

"So I'm sure that the Pentagon is developing the ability not only to track what the Russians are doing and determine whether or not they're going to try to deploy something like this but also how they defend against it if it should happen," he said.
