How great a threat is China to the United States? And how has China been able to rise from the rice paddies to become the threat it has become? In this episode of “Beyond the Cover,” New American Senior Editor William F. Jasper surveys China’s technological advances including areas where they are now ahead of the United States such as their launch of a hypersonic missile. But, Jasper also explains, these advances were built on U.S. technological transfers that the U.S. developed but China deployed. In the same interview, Jasper also explains why this madness — amounting to national suicide — is occurring.
