US Vice President Kamala Harris has traveled to the Philippines for a visit designed to demonstrate Washington’s support for Manila and other Southeast Asian allies in their territorial disputes with China.
Harris arrived on Sunday evening to a red-carpet welcome in Manila after attending the Asia-Pacific Economic Forum in Thailand. She’s scheduled to meet with President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Monday for talks on strengthening security and economic ties, then fly on Tuesday to the Palawan island chain, which lies adjacent to disputed waters of the South China Sea.
The above is copied from TRE. Yes, Kamala Harris is going to the Philippines to counter Beijing's claims of the islands in the South China Sea.
Harris is going to tell Marcos that the US once claimed all the main islands of the Philippines. This is something that China cannot compete and pale in comparison. The US once owned the Philippines, colonised the whole nation, all belonged to the Americans. Can China counter that?
Not only the US once claimed the whole of the Philippines, Japan also claimed the whole of the Philippines in WW2. And another thing that China cannot compete with the Americans and the Japanese, both the Americans and Japanese also committed war crimes and genocides against the Philippines during their occupations.
Step aside China, you are no match for the Americans and the Japanese. The Americans and the Philippines are making a come back to claim the Philippines with their lies, pretending to be protecting the Philippines but sneaking in their military to be permanent occupants of the Philippine islands and waters.
When would the Americans be back in Clark Air Base and Subic Naval Base and to set up the bar industries again?
China said it would defend the Philippines against any country that seek to recolonise the Philippines, be it Japan or the USA.
ReplyDeleteWhen did china make that claim?
DeleteThis type of claim is following the Americans making all kinds of claims like China is going to attack the Philippines and they are going to defend Ppines. North Korea is a threat, going to send its nuclear weapons to attack everyone, so the Americans have to sanction North Korea.
ReplyDeleteAll sound and fury. China is doing what the Americans are doing, fighting fire with fire.
Everywhere the Americans go, when they open their mouth, they spewed thrash and shit and lies to smear and demonise others when they are the real trouble makers, the real terrorists.
The American objective is very clear. They want to control every country. And the easiest way is to spread fear and lies, about threats, about China or North Korea or Iran wanting to attack a country. Then they say, we will defend you, and send in their soldiers. In no time their soldiers would be in the country and control the country.
ReplyDeleteTheir soldiers now in Ukraine, in Germany, in Europe, in South Korea, in Japan, in Saudi Arabia, in Iraq, in Syria. They tried with the Pacific Islands, sent in their Coast Guards patrol boats but got shooed away by the Islanders. They think the Islanders are stupid and cannot see what the Americans' plans are.
They tried with Asean, telling Asean they want to protect Asean and South China Sea, and want to send in their navy and build bases here.
Now trying to frighten the Philippines that China wants to attack them, so want to move into Clark Air Base and Subic Naval Base again, to make the Philippines their colony again.
I like the part that says the USA claimed all the islands of the Philippines as theirs at one time. It looks like Filipinos are proud and happy about it. Let them be.
ReplyDeleteBut, no shit! Is this going to happen again? Good thing the Philiipines did not go the way of the Native American Indians, by being genocided to near extinction. Thankfully, for religious reasons, the Philippine continued to procreate profusely, as abortion is forbidden. I hope the Philippines does not intend to go the same path again, and ask for genocide a second time.
Of course, China can never compete with the USA in the Philippines, as most Filipinos are completely brainwashed by the USA propaganda that China is evil. Moreover, there are many younger Filipinos fathered by USA soldiers during their hey days, with money to throw to the poverty stricken females in the Philippines, and doing the breeding as well. No abortion allowed, mind you.
As for Marcos Jr, I am of the opinion he is playing both sides of the game, but more inclined towards the USA, as both his parents were also worshippers of the USA in the past. China should stop helping and let the USA give unwavering support as vowed by Kamala Harris. Funny, they never talked about helping those homeless and tent dwellers lining the streets in many major USA cities, but helping everyone else around the world. I thought charity begins at home? Neither would the MSM, including Channel News America, ever showed a documentary, that I know of, about those homeless creatures living on the streets of the richest country in the world.
After Duterte, the Pinoys are very happy to be a colony of the Americans, especially the military and the foreign service. Do not be surprised the Americans would be invited to return to their former military bases in the Philippines.
ReplyDeleteChina should not waste its money trying to help the Pinoys. The Pinoys are more interested in warships and weapons so that they can strut around like cowboys, shooting from the hips.
Descendants of the Brits, the USA, have DNA's that are stuck in war mongering mode. They are also genocidal monsters.
ReplyDeleteNow, some Filipinos are descendants of USA, thus having Brit's DNA, and are equally warmongering. Especially those in the military.
As I have said before, wash a pig as much as you like, it will go back to the mud. The USA is the mud.
ReplyDeleteThe World has to learn from the Africans,
who are lucky not to have shared the Fates of the lndigeneous Natives in the
Americas, Australia, New Zealand, Hawaii and some other smaller countries robbed by the Anglo-saxons.
The Philippinoes had been colonized by Spain and later subjected to the US Dictate. The Philippino People were fine with Western Culture, especially religion-wise.
With the Cultural Conversion, the Natives are incline to lean
more to the White-culture than the that of the Orient.
Ex-President Duterte is more prescient of the
Whites' lntention and Motive
and is abouy the Only Philippines President to be wary of the Whites.
Personally,
I am of the View that Ferdinand Marcos Junior will do his best to please both the US and China
for thr lnterest of the Philippines.
However,
at his personal level, he would be more in favour of Western Culture.
If the USA cannot find someone to counter, it will collapse. Why? Because their war economy cannot survive.
ReplyDeleteAfrica still has the numbers to rebel against colonisation, though militarily still not strong enough like Russia or China, but will eventually become a continent to deal with by the Whites.
ReplyDeleteNATO member attacking US?
ReplyDeleteRumour has it that:
'Following the terrorist attack in Ankara which killed 34 people and injured another 125, Turkish authorities first declared that they will not accept US condolences. Then the Turks launched a military operation against “Kurdish terrorists in northern Syria“. Turkey then claimed to have neutralized 184 terrorists.
What is not mentioned in those articles is that the target of the Turkish strike was the US-run center for the training and education of PKK militants in Rojava. There are rumors that the Turks gave the US enough warning time to evacuate most of its personnel.
If the above is true, and rumors are very much “if” and cannot be considered as proven fact, then that means that a NATO member state (Turkey) just attacked a US base and, like Iran, got away with it: the “The Finest Fighting Force in the History of the World” just got whacked hard and humiliated for a second time and could do absolutely nothing to defend itself or even save face.
According to the Turkish defense minister, Hulusi Akar,
'Terrorists’ shelters, bunkers, caves, tunnels, and warehouses were successfully destroyed,” Akar said, adding that “the so-called headquarters of the terrorist organization were also hit and destroyed.” Overall, the Defense Ministry claimed that the strikes hit nearly 90 targets, which it said were connected to the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) and the Kurdish People’s Defense Units (YPG).'
So, what do we have here? A NATO member state all but accused the US of a major terrorist attack against its capital city, and then that NATO member state openly attacked a US-run facility (let’s not call it a base, that would be inaccurate).
In other words; being a member of NATO does not protect you from anything, not from external attacks and not against internal ones either.
The phenomenal weakness of the US/NATO/CENTCOM is best illustrated by the US reaction to the Turkish strikes: Uncle Shmuel endorsed (no kidding!!!) the Turkish strikes :-)
How absolutely pathetic is that for a wannabe superpower?

The USA had been training terrorist everywhere, particularly in Xinjiang, using Muslim radicals. China's crackdown was a blow to their attempt to destabilise Xinjiang and hoping it will spread to the rest of China. Coupled with the unrest in Hong Kong, it was a two pronged attack. That it failed resulted in all the hubris about human rights issues in Xinjiang and China mistreating Muslim minorities.
ReplyDeleteShe came to Singapore and she went to SGN, talking bad about China when both countries had good relations with China. Very disrespectful to her hosts and also amounting to interference to their foreign policy.
ReplyDeleteThe USA and Western modus operandi is all centred on human rights that tied in with their so- called 'Rule of Law'. Even the Qatar World Cup has been politicised by the USA and the West, hyping on the accusation of human rights abuses during the construction of the facilities, and it really spoilt all the great effort and investments put in by the Qataris.
ReplyDeleteNow the USA and the West have publicly antagonised the Qataris after entangling with the Saudis. The whole Middle East is now pivoting towards Russia, China and the BRICS as well as SCO.
Qatar now has signed a new deal to supply gas to China for 27 long years. China now has long term deals for oil and gas with Russian, Iran, Qatar and soon Saudi Arabia. The Qataris have told the West earlier that they are not going to cut off gas supplies to Asian countries under commitment, and favour the Europeans. Those days are over for Europe.
All the American supported and funded terrorist camps in countries like China, the Philippines, the Middle east and the rest of the world, are extension camps of the evil American Empire.
ReplyDeleteAttacking and destroying them are like attacking the American Empire.

ReplyDeleteChina also has long term deals signed with Trump Administration for oil and gas at rock bottom prices. The Americans are contracted to supply oil and gas to China for 40 years which China is reselling to Europe for profit at current inflated prices.
Kamala Harris can sell her snake oil to the Philippines and she knows the Filipinos will buy it, lock stock and barrel, but not to other ASEAN countries, except maybe one.
ReplyDeleteShe must be foolish to think she can persuade the Vietnamese to counter China, after the USA killed millions of North Vietnamese during the Vietnam War, dropped chemical weapons that destroyed agricultural land and still having deformation effects on later generations, laid millions of land mines across the country, which are still killing and crippling the innocents.
Coupled with that, the most ridiculous act of that earlier visit was laying a wreath at the war criminal, John MacCain's memorial, in Hanoi. Was that her purpose of her visit? That was an affront against the Vietnamese. Just like Japanese leaders visiting the Yasukuni Shrine for was criminals, that always angered the South Koreans and Chinese.
If Europe has sensible minded leaders, it should cap oil and gas prices from the USA, instead of paying four to five times the norm. Why are they not doing it and instead focusing on capping oil prices from Russia? It is a no brainer and is already dead before implementation as indicated by European leaders, now talking about walking back on the plan should it backfire badly. So much about solidarity and unity. Failure after failure seems to be the norm with the USA and EU's half baked plans and hubris.
ReplyDeleteAny plan that they plucked from the air had no backup strategies, just like cutting energy supplies from Russia. Now floundering like fallen ten pins, they were taken to the cleaners by the USA and still buying Russian energy, without a doubt, from China, India, Saudi Arabia and Qatar. How stupid can some people, albeit leaders, be, but honestly has no known cure.
