\'Gallilao\'

There is a report on the BBC News site of a documented plan to knock the satelites out of the sky if it is America's military or commercial interests.

Re: \'Gallilao\'

Is this one of those 'Have I got News for You' questions?

The Chinese are actively considering their subscription to Gallileo. If they do, they may be able to use the system in ballistic missiles to attack Uncle Sam. Uncle Sam is reserving the right to take out our Your-ro-Chinoise capability by downing the satellites. The Chinese, being masters of firecrackers, are no doubt working out how to retaliate by knocking out the GPS constellation, which is only 11,000 miles distant as the crow flies.

Thought the Chinese had signed up to this already?
