The Coming War on China, from award winning journalist John Pilger, 
reveals what the news doesn’t – that the world’s greatest military 
power, the United States, and the world’s second economic power, China, 
both nuclear-armed, may well be on the road to war.

Nuclear war is not only imaginable, but planned. The greatest build-up 
of NATO military forces since the Second World War is under way on the 
western borders of Russia. On the other side of the world, the rise of 
China is viewed in Washington as a threat to American dominance.

To counter this, President Obama announced a ‘pivot to Asia’, which 
meant that almost two-thirds of all US naval forces would be transferred 
to Asia and the Pacific, their weapons aimed at China. A policy which 
has been taken up by his successor Donald Trump, who during his election 
campaign said “We can’t continue to allow China to rape our country and 
that’s what they’re doing”.

Filmed on five possible front-lines across Asia and the Pacific over two 
years, the story is told in chapters that connect a secret and 
‘forgotten’ past to the rapacious actions of great power today and to a 
resistance, of which little is known in the West.
