Personally I think the OP is a bunch of hype. The Chinese station (IIRC) is a joint scientific experiement with Finland- the radar is actually Finnish. They are doing atmospheric research.

If I was going to build a radar to attack satellites, I wouldn't put it in Antarctica, which has some of the crappiest weather conditions in the world, not to mention a whole pile of International Treaties banning such activity.
