\u201cThe aim of this film is to break a silence: the United States and China may well be on the road to war, and nuclear war is no longer unthinkable,\u201d Pilger says in his 2016 documentary The Coming War on China<\/em>, which you can watch free on Youtube here<\/a> or on Vimeo here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn a few years China has become the world\u2019s second-biggest economic power,\u201d Pilger\u2019s introduction continues. \u201cThe United States is the world\u2019s biggest military power, with bases and missiles and ships covering every continent and every ocean. China is a threat to this dominance, says Washington. But who is the threat? This film is about shifting power, and great danger.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we\u2019ve been discussing<\/a> for years now, the relentless quest of the US-centralized empire-like power alliance for total world domination has put it on a collision course with the surging economic powerhouse of China which refuses to be absorbed into the imperial blob. The empire\u2019s continued existence depends upon its ability to undermine China before it grows too powerful or the empire grows too weak to stop its ascent, at which point global hegemony becomes impossible and we are living in a truly multipolar world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
