Nuclear war is no longer unthinkable as it may be provoked by a US military build-up in the Pacific, clearly aimed at confronting Beijing, John Pilger says in his new documentary ‘The Coming War on China’, set to be aired on rt.com and the RTD channel. According to the BAFTA-winning journalist and filmmaker, mainstream media reports of Beijing’s ambitious expansion and reclaiming of land in the South China Sea is in fact a response to US military activity around its borders.
US President Barack Obama’s pivot to Asia in 2011 has resulted in the construction of 400 American bases, including in Guam, elsewhere in the South China Sea, South Korea and Japan – thereby encircling China.
Together they form what Pilger called in his film “a noose around China,” which is made of missiles, warships and nuclear weapons.
“The winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, Barack Obama, has committed trillions of dollars to our nuclear arsenal. He’s committing trillions of future dollars to war in space. And we need an enemy for all this money and China is the perfect enemy,” James Bradley, author of China Mirage, says in the documentary.
The media is playing a key role in promoting this idea as “the threat of China is becoming big news,” Pilger states in ‘The Coming War on China’, adding that what is not reported is that China itself is under threat.
The award winning journalist recently appeared on RT’s Going Underground program, saying how dangerous US attempts to provoke China really are.
“The point about all of this is that, I don’t think anyone wants a nuclear war or even a war between great powers like the US and China. But what’s happening here is that laying of ground, a landscape of potential mistakes and accidents,” Pilger told host Afshin Rattansi.
“So, we're back to that almost estranged Stranglove world that we were worried about,” he added, referring to Stanley Kubrick’s 1964 movie ‘Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb,’ which satirizes the threat of nuclear conflict between the US and Soviet Union.
The documentary contains Pilger’s interview with US Assistant Secretary of State, Daniel R. Russel, who states that the American presence in the pacific is “is warmly welcomed by the vast majority of the coastal states” and “is fully accepted by the Chinese.”
Which, according to Pilger, is far from the truth. “My impression is that they are scared,” he says.

“We stand at a few minutes to midnight in terms of the threat of nuclear war. That aim of this film is to break a science. A nuclear war is no longer unthinkable,” Pilger said of his documentary.

What I never understand is, where does USA(and UK) find people to join their armies when people know pretty well that they will be used to invade some country for political gains only(and not defending the freedom or liberating the land crap that they are fed). How is it possible that americans sign up for their military knowing the american track record pretty well. Is it just to get a job?
I followed the American military News facebook page for a few days and you guys really need to see that. The level of brainwashing in their posts is extreme. Then I saw a Military Jobs page and messaged them that I want to join the american army becauise I love invading countries. Turned out they were only recruiting for the British army :D
Both these pages came to my attention through 'sponsored' posts on facebook!
