Can’t say that I blame him. They are like our little brother. Dominated by the Spanish, Japanese, and then us. They got their independence from us-don’t know if pressure was involved. The good news is that the people love us still for now. Maybe President Trump can change it but with the Keynan the damage has been done.

This story is buried on the MSM. I heard it first on the BBC.

I think I've seen similar stories before here on FR.

I'd guess that China leaning on the Philippines territorial boundaries could be a strong influence on making nice with Red China. Who would count on Hussein?

"I've realigned myself in your ideological flow and maybe I will also go to Russia to talk to (President Vladimir) Putin and tell him that there are three of us against the world — China, Philippines and Russia. It's the only way," Duterte added.

Looks like WW3 will be with them on the other side.

How do you say “Coup” in Talagog or Tagolog? The sane people of the Philippines will not want to live under the domination of the Red Chinese, who, I hope, they will view as the new Japanese Imperialists of WW2.

This may also give the Islamic jihadist group Al-Sayyeff hope that the Reds will curtain the Philippine military from their operations against them, and even the Moro Liberation Front islamists.

Obama’s legacy of treason can be summed up in a couple of words - “Yes I did”.

"This may also give the Islamic jihadist group Al-Sayyeff hope...."

I'm thinkin' that the Chinese are way less aligned with muzzies than Hussein.

I agree with him. We’re not the America we once were. We’re nothing but a third world refugee camp and sewer for the world’s sewerage.

You know. No pro or con. Just an observation, he is on my dead pool list.

1)Going after all the dope cartels,
2)announcing he is going after the Islamic rebels that have been going strong for about 100+ years,
3)getting between the USA and China.
4)Being a rude (albeit, entertaining) guy 24/7.

I give him a year.

We took over the Philippines as a result of winning
the Spanish-American War. Fighting between Filipino
guerrillas and US military went on for years. In the
mid 1930s FDR signed a document granting independence
in 1946. The Japanese invaded the PIs starting in
Dec ‘41. The US took back the PIs in ‘45 and honored
their agreement to grant independence in ‘46 and secured
naval and military bases in the process.

Just a little fairly accurate FYI.

They are bidding their time and waiting for a Trump win.
