It is really mind boggling that the country can allow a disgraced family of crooks to return to the Philippines, after its patriarch, Ferdinand Marcos, stole so much wealth from the Philippines people, and yet be allowed to rule the country. The USA professed to hate dictators but continuously supported Ferdinand Marco's corrupted regime during his tenure as President from 1965 till 1986.
I do think that Bongbong Marcos was a stooge put into power by the USA, knowing that he could be controlled by the USA by holding him hostage with all the wealth still in the USA hands. That he is a puppet of the USA is no conspiracy theory, just hoping to do anything for the USA's interest in order to get his hands on the ill-gotten wealth of his father. Remember that the Pinoy voters were dirt poor and anything can be achieved through just a little fragrant grease, which the USA is well aware of.
To do that they had to demonize the rule of Rodrigo Duterte, painting him as a rogue leader trying to get rid of the drug cartel in the Philippines, a move deemed a violation of human rights. How about the USA using the military to target those Venezuelans accused of smuggling drugs in the Caribbean Sea? Who is going to speak out for those killed by the USA? What is the ICC doing? It cannot just open and close its eyes as it deemed beneficial.

It is not just a common objective of Marcos and the USA to control the Philippines. It is already a de-facto and undeniable stamp of control, just as in the past when Ferdinand Marcos was the dictator in power.
When Ferdinand Marcos was ruling the Philippines, the USA poured in aid, on the pretext of paying for the USA military bases, with such aid all going into the pocket of dictator Marcos. It was never about improving the lives of the Pinoys, that at one stage was so desperate that Pinoys had to leave families at home to work as sailors and maids overseas. We have seen that era I am sure.
Keep Ferdinand Marcos in power and do everything that the USA demanded was the objective. Never mind the Pinoys suffering. It was all worth it, just like that monster Madelene Albright claiming that sacrificing 500 thousand Iraqi children was worth it.
