The tradition of an armed citizen militia is as age old as civilization; having been employed under various names by the Biblical civilizations, the Greek city states, the Roman Republic, and the Fyrd of the Anglo-Germanic tribes in Europe and in Britain.

There is already Chinese military weapons on the islands (located 800 miles from China) - no need to wait for the first PAAF J series.
The Philippines is so screwed. All we can do is whine and complain but we don’t have the military to defend our islands. We actually have some armed men on a beached ship on a tiny island to maintain our claim, but the Chinese have blockaded them and is starving them out. We know they will seize it the moment our men leave. We cannot break the blockade and Obama won’t help. It is only a matter of time before we lose everything.
