When China Attacks

A Warning to America

By: Col. Grant Newsham

Narrated by: Axel Bosley

A warning about America’s impending war with China. The conflict is coming, a former Marine intelligence officer shows, and we’re not ready. But it’s not too late to prepare.

Communist China is ambitious. It wants to replace the United States as the world’s leading superpower. And it is well on its way. It is dominant in the world economy. It is a master at intellectual property theft. It shows strategic genius at cornering essential markets. It has been staggeringly successful in buying influence among American elites. And its military buildup is astonishing.

So far, China has been waging a cold war on the United States and its Asian allies. But, emboldened by American weakness and decline, that cold war is about to turn hot. The flashpoint will be Taiwan—but the war will extend over the entire Pacific Theatre. The results could be devastating.

America is facing the possibility of humiliating regional retreat—one with almost unimaginable costs to our economy and security. That’s the warning of Grant Newsham, a longtime China analyst for the Marine Corps, the Foreign Service, and Morgan Stanley Bank in Japan. His shocking new book When China Attacks is a fire bell in the night—a warning about an imminent hot war that we are already in the process of losing. It offers a frightening, but well-founded, blow-by-blow account of what might happen.

Is American defeat inevitable? No, but only if America’s leaders heed the sobering message of When China Attacks.

Must read…

…Every single American Citizen should read this book! I enjoyed the intro, which is what could happen if nothing changes… and there is still time to change!

We definitley need to keep China in check.

I think we will be all set now that Trump is headed back into the White House, but this book proves that China is a major threat, especially with someone like Joe Biden at the helm. People don't realize just how bad it would be if China attacked Taiwan, but this book will put it all into focus for anyone who doubts the severity.

Forewarned is Forearmed

Excellent presentation of the dangers ahead if we don’t change our approach to China. Every leader in Congress needs to take heed.

timely information

complex issues explained well for the layperson. very informational and I encourage everyone to read our listen to this book.

Most worthwhile book which I have listened to in a long time.

Full of facts, common sense and clear thinking.. Should be on the suggested reading lists for our leaders as well as Americans generally. Great book, especially good narrator/reader

Great Book

A must read for anyone studying the CCP and their global ambitions. Leaders must read this book.

You have to read this one

This is a very important book written by an insider, who has served his country and spent decades in Asia, working in various capacities, among others behind the scenes helping US allies
The opening is like watching Private Ryan, an incredible description of what might be awaiting the US and Asia in case of a Chinese invasion
What follows later is a wake-up call and a summary of all the Western failures of the last two decades, showing how the CCP is strong due to Western correctness and weakness
The last part of the book is about ways how we can still defend ourselves and try to win this war

Needed information

We need to wake up to those in this country that are selling us out. Col. Newsham is showing us our time is short yet we can do something about it. Thank you

Shocking

America needs to wake up listen to this book you will be surprised. Highly recommend.

Please America, read this book.

Thank you for writing this book. It's frustrating but necessary to be aware of the 'all in' approach China is and has been taking to destroy America from the inside out. Every utterance is jaw dropping, but no speculation. Grant Newsham has done fantastic research and clearly knows what he is talking about. The one thing I want to talk about specifically and is the thing the prompted me to write my first ever review ties in an entirely separate video that started playing about details of the Hunter and Joe Biden corruption scandle that I had not heard before, and that made me stop the video and pull up the chapter in this book about economic warfare ( chapter 11 I believe). I could not believe what I was hearing and needed to double check and wonder why NO ONE including those constantly talking about the bidens corruption has not been talking about this which may well be the worst thing yet. In the video a utuber talks about a trip in 2013 that VP Biden and Hunter took to China where Joe met with xi and Hunter met with a chineese banker named Johnathan Lee . 10 days later a new company was formed called BHR partners. hunter Biden sat on the board and Mr Lee was the CEO. In 2016 BHR was involved in the sale of the same cobalt mine in the congo that Mr Newsham mentions in the economic warfare chapter. Then in 2017 hunter bought a 10 percent stake in BHR for 420,000 dollars. then in 2022 joe passes the oddly named inflation reduction act that provisions 369 Billion dollars for climate and energy. it is critical to understand that if we want.. or need... or are forced to buy electric cars, cobalt is absolutely needed and to get it now requires going through China. Even though I read this book a while ago I remembered this part clearly because it made no sense. even Mr Newsham who is far more restrained then I could be calls the american business and political leaders 'fools'. They knew about the importance of cobalt yet no American companies bid on this deal. it seemed so bizzare and frustrating. now it makes sense. people were somehow being stopped from bidding is the only sensible thing to explain this and given this is the same Mr Lee that hunters text message where he tries pressing me lee as 'he and his father who is in the room with him are demanding action'. this actually explains a lot. even Mr Newsham and others pointing out the China threat can never answer the basic question of ' why are we doing this seemingly to ourselves? '. I mean, why are we just letting china get away with it all? we can't be that dumb. that oblivious. sure there's greed, but even the wall Street greed can not explain all of it. this helps. tying this idea to many other aspects of the book I admit is speculation but by doing so, I felt like what copernicus must have felt like when he explained all the anomalies of the ptolemaic system by simply putting the sun in the middle instead of the earth. that is, with just a small perceptual shift in the most basic cause everything else falls into place.
