The Coming War on China (2016) by John Pilger was really damn interesting.
I'd heard about the bases being built up in the South China Sea, but I didn't know about the extent of US bases encroaching on the Chinese mainland.
(They piss a lot of people off in this way....Bin Laden objected to US bases in Saudi and that's what kicked him off and found refuge in Pakistan among sympathisers...the brief war in Georgia...possibly Ukraine and the big one regarding Cuba (US missiles aimed at Russia in Turkey were quietly removed if Russia did the same with missiles in Cuba.)
Pilger's a good egg.

p.s. The video quality on Amazon Prime leaves much to be desired these days, it was pixelating constantly over a wired connection on a 160Mbps connection, so the issue has to be at their end (not the first time I've noticed it recently)
Is this on the back of them killing Net Neutrality and bandwidth limits being imposed?
Probably a subject for a new topic, but I'm on the verge of cancelling.
p.p.s.
You can watch it on YouTube
The fact that's carrying the RT logo is a minor concern (they didn't produce it).
Personally I haven't thought (for a few decades) that any major nation would be daft enough to willingly start lobbing nukes around, and to be honest I still don't.
It's like using poison gas on a battlefield or biological warfare in general.....it's just as likely to fuck your up as the enemy.
