November 20, 2024: The US’ Cheerleading Team to encourage their Filipino Dogs against China
Outgoing Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin III recently boasted during his visit here in the Philippines about the United States (US) now has a “Task Force Ayungin” which is composed of US Service Members who are reportedly helping the Philippines in its ongoing Territorial Disputes against China in a mainly Advisory Manner.
To me it should instead be called as, “US Task Force Ayungin Cheerleaders” because that is what they are and what they do, just encouraging their Filipino Dogs against China. And only “China”, and at the same time APPEASING ALL of the other Countries that the Philippines has Territorial Disputes with like Vietnam, Malaysia and Taiwan because the US doesn’t want the Philippines to fight them, only China.

November 6, 2024: Donald Trump as US President is good for the Philippines and the World
So Donald Trump won and is President of the United States (US) again, and this is a great, wonderful Thing not only for Trump, not only for the Americans, not only for the Republicans but for the entire World itself.
Trump I believe will bring back Peace, or at least bring the World back from the Brink of World War Three (WW3) which Joe Biden has willingly brought the World to.
As for the Philippines, I don’t think even Trump can completely control the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) from the Propaganda Operations they are conducting here, but the CIA will be a lot more cautious, knowing that at any time in the next four Years they could be made accountable for what they are doing.
I also hope that whatever Deals some Drug Addicts might have made with the Biden Administration might be cancelled, and who knows, some US Whistleblowers might even confirm to the Public that such a Deal had, indeed, been made.
Now this doesn’t automatically make me “Pro-US” like what that shameless US Liberal Rear-kisser Rappler is now saying about Duterte Supporters who are cheering for Trump. This makes me “Pro-Trump”, but not necessarily “Pro-US”.
Besides, just because I like Trump doesn’t mean I will automatically ditch China. I can like both of them, whatever Problems they may have with each other they can settle among themselves, leave me out of it.

Here is a recent Article from “The Manila Times” talking about how the deployment of Troops, Equipment and Weapons by the United States (US) in the Philippines could make our Country not only a Target of Conventional Weapons from China, but Nuclear Weapons as well.
You can find the Link to the Article below, meanwhile here are some Excerpts from it:
* “Under the Agile Combat Employment (ACE) Strategy, as explained by Air Force Gen. Kenneth Wilsbach, Commander of US Indo-Pacific Air Assets from India to Hawaii, a Month after Marcos granted nine EDCA Sites, the ACE Strategy is "to have Jets spread out over many, many Islands [so as] to make the targeting Problem for the Adversary more difficult — it makes them use more Munitions."”
* “Added the National Defense Website, paraphrasing Wilsbach: "Instead of trying to make Facilities withstand attacks from Precision Munitions, the Goal of [ACE] is to develop a Hub and Spoke Network of small Bases and Facilities so if one gets hit, the losses are small"”
* “And Washington has no Resources and time to erect defenses for all Bases since Guam alone requires $1.7 billion and several years of construction to counter China's 500 Medium-Range Projectiles and thousands of Cruise Missiles, Drones and Warplanes, plus Cyberwarfare ("The Plan to Defend Guam from Missile Threats Is Years from Completion <removed>). And our Bases are much closer to China than Guam is and far more vulnerable to many more PLA Weapons.”
* “There's more. America's current Military Chief, Air Force Gen. Charles "CQ" Brown, has long sought to position Ground-based Intermediate-Range Missiles (GBIRMs) in Asia. As then-Air Force chief in 2020, he commissioned Think-Tank RAND Corp. to assess whether or not US Treaty Allies — Australia, Japan, South Korea, the Philippines and Thailand — would allow GBIRMs on their Soil.”
* “"IndoPacom hopes to disperse US forces, including marine and army units, along the first island chain running from Japan through Southeast Asia. In a contingency, these small, mobile teams would support US air and naval operations and hold Chinese vessels at risk with ground-based missile units. ... the Philippines is the only country in Southeast Asia that might realistically host such assets. So, these plans require saving the VFA (Visiting Forces Agreement) and implementing EDCA"”
* “During hostilities, the choice for PLA Generals would then be to expend hundreds of Rockets, Drones and Aircraft in repeated Sorties against Missile Systems and Airfields here supporting America, which are constantly repaired after every bombing — or to take out dozens of those Threats with just one Volley of Atomic Weapons, saving ordnance for Naval and Air Battles and rendering Targets irreparable due to radioactivity.”

August 29, 2024: US interfering with the Philippines to turn it into another Ukraine
Here is an Article that is so good that I wanted to turn it into a Video, but I had trouble asking the Author for Permission because the damn Russian Yandex Mail Service he was using kept automatically rejecting the E-Mails from my ProtonMail Account as supposed Spam.
I might still turn it into a Video if ever I get the Author’s Permission. In the Meantime, here are Excerpts from the Article, I suggest everyone read it in its entirety, I will put the Link below:
* “Before the current Administration of Ferdinand Marcos Jr. took Office, China was working with the Philippines to build badly needed modern Infrastructure. Now, rather than working and trading together with China, the Philippines is pointing Missiles at China. It has “invited” the United States, the Philippines’ former Colonial Master, to build new Military Facilities across its Territory, using Semantics and legal loopholes to sidestep the Philippines own Constitution and undermine its Sovereignty in the process. Instead of rising with the rest of Asia, the Philippines continues to escalate toward a conflict that could set the entire region back decades or more.”
* “There is growing awareness of the means by which the US interferes politically in targeted Nations through the US National Endowment for Democracy (NED) and adjacent Organizations, Agencies, and Foundations, compromising a Nation’s leadership and reshaping National Policies to serve Washington at the expense of the targeted Nation. The NED does this through targeting every aspect of a Nation-State, from its Political System, to Academia, from its Courts and Legal System to a Nation’s information space.”
* “In addition to lying about Public Health, the US seeks to convince the Philippine Public to give up Trade, Economic Development, and Infrastructure Projects with China and instead invest Public Funds into Military Spending ahead of what will likely be a Ukraine-style Proxy War against China.”
* “Considering the Pile of Ashes and Bones the US is transforming Ukraine into even as this same process gains momentum in the Philippines, it is clear that along this Path, there is no future at all for the Philippines. <Removed> Only time will tell if other Nations heed this warning, or simply follow Ukraine and the Philippines into Self-Destruction.”

August 22, 2024: The US’ continued Interference in Philippine Affairs to protect their Interests
Here are selected Excerpts from an interesting Article talking about how the United States (US) continues to interfere in the Philippines’ Local Political Affairs to ensure that their Interests are protected, and keep the Philippines remain under their Sphere of Influence:
* “For its highest Global Priority of "out-competing China and constraining Russia," spelled out in the US National Security Strategy (https://tinyurl.com/4xvyut3f), Washington's Paramount Objective in our Country is to deploy massive Forces here with access to Bases of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) under the Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement (EDCA).”
* “Uncle Sam's other Agenda, predicted by this Column in March 2023 ("To keep its Bases, will the US take on Sara?" https://tinyurl.com/yr2cnys3), is to perpetuate America's armed Might here by ensuring that Vice President Sara Duterte doesn't succeed President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. in 2028.”
* “Her Father, then-president Rodrigo Duterte, stymied US Military Deployment here and nearly nixed the Visiting Forces Agreement that provides a Legal Basis to EDCA. So, the Marcos Camp turned against VP Sara after Marcos opened nine Bases to America in February last Year. It also began boosting his Cousin, House of Representatives Speaker Martin Romualdez.”

July 26, 2024: US Defense Sec. Austin going to the Philippines with paltry Usd 500 million in Military Aid
The United States’ (US) Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is reportedly now on his way to the Philippines bringing with them their "Gift" of Usd 500 million in Foreign Military Financing (FMF). This is actually part of a much larger Military Aid Package totalling Usd 95 billion that the US enacted into Law last April 2024 and which I had made a Video about.
And as I have said then in my Video, the Philippines only got 0.5% or only half a percent of that Package, which shows how little the US regards the Philippines despite some Filipinos constantly kissing their Posteriors.

July 3, 2024: US tried to downplay the June 2024 Ayungin Shoal Incident
B.A. Hamza, a Professor at the National Defence University in Malaysia recently wrote about how the United States (US) was intentionally trying to downplay the June 2024 Ayungin Shoal Incident between China and the Philippines. Here are some chosen Excerpts from the Article, you can find the Link to the Article below:
* "As anticipated, the “Incident” elicited only condemnation from the White House one Day after, giving the impression that both Parties (US and Philippines) were not keen to escalate the Incident. The Cue was provided by the National Security Council spokesman John Kirby. Kirby informed Journalists Monday, “This kind of Behaviour [by China] is Provocative, it’s Reckless, it’s unnecessary, and it could lead to misunderstandings and miscalculations that could lead to something much bigger and much more Violent.” Kirby was silent on the Treaty (meaning the Mutual Defense Treaty between the US and Philippines).”
* “Grappling with more important Strategic Issues in the Middle East and Ukraine, opening a third Front against a formidable China, 6000 miles away, will not be wise for the President Biden, Commander in Chief, who stumbled and looked disoriented during the recent Presidential debate with Donald Trump.”
* “Given American involvement in Conflicts in the Middle East and Europe, it is unlikely that Washington will fight on another Front. Despite President Biden’s Promise of Iron-clad support to President Marcos, the failure to invoke the 1951 MDT serves as a Reminder to other US Allies – Taiwan, Japan and Australia included – that Defense Treaties in modern times are sometimes not worth the Papers they are written on.”

June 27, 2024: “Should Americans Die for a Single Filipino?” - Doug Bandow
Some Americans continue to show doubt about coming into the aid of the Philippines against China, like this “Doug Bandow” for Example, who recently wrote an Article entitled, “Should Americans Die for a Single Filipino?”. Here are some selected Excerpts from that Article, you can find the Link to it below:
* “China and the Philippines are battling over control of contested Waters in the Pacific. So far there has been no shooting, but there have been Casualties. And the Biden Administration has committed Americans to go to War if even one Filipino dies—or so Manila apparently believes.
That would be madness, of course. The Philippine Archipelago isn’t vital for America’s defense. No one imagines a Chinese Armada proceeding inexorably eastward, set to conquer Hawaii and then California. Of course, Washington would prefer to hem in the People’s Republic of China with a network of Allies and Bases.”
* “Any Country planning to go Mano-a-Mano with the World’s second greatest Naval Power should possess at least a capable, even if not equal, Military. That is not the Philippines. America’s first Colonial conquest is a Semi-Failed State. Politics is corrupt and Economics is inefficient. The Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) are no better.
With what does Marcos plan to take on the PRC? In Asia alone the Philippine Military lags behind those of Singapore, Thailand, Taiwan, Vietnam, Australia, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, and India, as well as China.”
* “Manila, however, expects America to do any real fighting. Unfortunately, as an Ally the Philippines brings to mind the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Germany’s main Military Partner in World War I. German officers recognized that their Country was “shackled to a Corpse.” In making the Philippines a major Military commitment, one could be forgiven for believing that Uncle Sam views Alliances as an Eleemosynary Exercise, a Gift for the Incompetent and Ineffective.“

June 18, 2024: Many Filipinos likely killed by US Covid-19 Disinformation Campaign in the Philippines in 2020
The Reuters News Organization recently made a shocking Revelation about how the United States (US) Military Forces conducted a Disinformation Propaganda Campaign at the height of the Corona Virus Disease 2019 (Covid-19) Pandemic in the Philippines against Chinese Vaccines and Medical Equipment the very likely lead to many Deaths among Filipinos
June 15, 2024: “US only using the Philippines against China and will just discard it afterwards” – Scott Ritter
The former United States (US) Intelligence Officer and Inspector of the United Nations (UN) Scott Ritter just made an Emotional and Compelling Message for the Filipino People, saying that his Country is only using the Philippines against China, and what happened in Ukraine could happen also in the Philippines, resulting in the Destruction of many Cities and the Deaths of many Filipinos

May 23, 2024: US starting to move against Sara Duterte to try to preserve the Philippines’ Subservience to them
It looks like this early, we are already seeing the United States (US) start to move against Sara Duterte, like for Example when this Foreigner who is currently polluting the Halls of the De La Salle University (DLSU) wrote an Article complaining about how Sara, if she wins the Presidency in 2028, could reverse President Bong Bong Marcos’ (PBBM) Pro-United States (US), Anti-China Foreign Policy, and said that our Country should find Ways to “Institutionalize” what is obviously its Subservience to the US to keep that from happening.
Clearly this Id**t won’t even mention how the US refuses to recognize any of the Philippines’ Claims in the South China Sea (SCS), hence the Reason why they couldn’t even be dragged into Ayungin Shoal to help fend off China.
As I have been saying, the US keep supporting Propaganda Operations like these to ensure that the Philippines sides and helps them fight China over Taiwan. The US desperately needs the Philippines to do that because no other Country except China is closer to Taiwan than the Philippines, Luzon is a lot closer to Taiwan than even Okinawa.

May 7, 2024: The US and the Philippines on EDCA Cartoon by In-Country
This Cartoon by the “In-Country” Facebook Page probably shows the most accurate Description of the Relations between the Armed Forces of the United States (US) and the Philippines, especially with regards to the Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement (EDCA).
There are so many “Truths” you can see just by studying it, but I will just leave you for now to determine by yourself what those are

February 1, 2024: The Risk of the Philippines becoming the next Ukraine continues to grow
Every single Day under the Administration of Bong Bong Marcos (BBM), the Philippines is becoming more and more of a Pawn of the United States (US) for a War against one of its Enemies just like Ukraine, but this time it will be against China.
The Philippines could become the “Asian Ukraine”, here are Quotes from an Article of The Manila Times (TMT) that discusses this more:
* “In his 2022 Presidential Campaign, Ferdinand Marcos Jr. constantly mouthed his Mantra of the Philippines as "Friend to All, Enemy to None." He even visited the Chinese Embassy on its October 1 National Day, though not July 4 at the American Embassy. Yet both are now in Conflict after abandoning Neutrality and backing the United States.”
* “The President granted US access to nine Bases of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), making our Country a far greater threat to China than Cuba was when Russia nearly installed Atomic Missiles there in 1962. Uncle Sam came down hard on Cuba, imposing debilitating Trade Sanctions for 62 Years and counting. China has not gone that far, but it stopped billions of Dollars in Infrastructure Financing and employed tougher Measures against our Coast Guard and Fisherfolk in disputed Waters.”
* “Intensifying Conflicts with China, between Marcos and Duterte Camps, and with Communist Rebels taking advantage of Peace Talks — sadly, that won't be the end of our Travails from America's Agenda.”

January 15, 2024: EDCA unofficially now on more Bases? Nuclear Weapons had been stored in the US Bases in the Philippines
Kit Tatad, the former Minister of Public Information of former President Ferdinand Marcos Sr., shared some very important Observations in his latest Article called "First Things First" on The Manila Times (TMT) recently about the Transfer of Fuel by the United States (US) from Hawaii to the Philippines. Below are some of Quotes from the Article:
* “The clear Implication is that the Marcos Government has granted the US more Military "Sites" than it has officially told the Filipino People or that EDCA has become an "Open-ended" Proposition.”
* “Does the Philippine Government know, at the appropriate Official Level, what kind of Weapons of Mass Destruction, if any, have been pre-positioned inside the US EDCA Military Sites? And is there any reasonable assurance that they will be used only for defense, as President Marcos Jr. has assured us, and not for any "offensive action"? What assurance do we have that our Status as a Nuclear Weapons-free State is not being violated, with or without the knowledge of our Government, with the hypothetical or actual installation of US Nuclear Weapons on our Soil?
It will be recalled that in 1969, at the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee Hearings chaired by Sen. Stuart Symington, it was revealed that US Nuclear Weapons (of an unknown quantity) had been stored in the Philippines without the knowledge and consent of the Philippine Government. At the time, the Official US Policy was to neither confirm nor deny the existence of Nuclear Weapons in any particular Location. What worried the Symington Committee, however, was the possibility that the Nuclear Secret could leak out anytime and become an explosive Political Issue during the Philippine Presidential Election where President Ferdinand E. Marcos was running for reelection. Marcos was eventually updated on the Issue, and the secret never acquired a life of its own in the Public Domain.
In 1971, the US National Security Council revealed that the authorized ceiling of Nuclear Weapons deployed to the Philippines was 201, including 115 Tactical Bombs on Navy Ships. In 1973, the same Source revealed that the authorized number of Nuclear Weapons at Clark Air Base and Subic Naval Base had reached 260. It is not clear though whether this was with the full knowledge and consent of the Philippine Government.”
