They Have to Go: President of Philippines Demands US Troops Leave the CountryBy James Holbrooks A considerable segment of the population in the Philippines does not want to see foreign troops, including U.S. troops, in the Philippines, Dr. Joseph Chang told Radio Sputnik. Chang theorizes much of President Dutertes decision regarding the removal of U.S. troops in the Philippines is rooted in his status as a populist leader, and that appeasing his electorate will establish his credentials as a nationalist president. Dr. Chang also noted Dutertes wish to reduce the Philippines dependence on the U.S. in the security arena andimprove economic ties with Beijing. Chang further suggested Duterte may even desire to attract foreign aid from Beijing to the Philippines. On Monday, Duterte continued his verbal assault against the United States he recently called President Obama a son of a bitch by claiming many of the problems the Philippines have with Muslim insurgents in the southern Mindanao region have to do with the U.S. militarys very presence there. I do not want a rift with America, but they have to go, the president who is from the Mindanao region said during a speech in Manilla, citing the U.S. militarys bloody history in the Philippines and the animosity many citizens still feel because of it. This sentiment was echoed by the presidents spokesperson, Ernesto Abella, in a statement issued by thePhilippines News Agency. Citing that statement, USA Today writes: Abella also pointed to lasting resentment over the U.S. military campaign in 1906 that led to the slaughter of hundreds of Muslims in the southern Philippines. Duterte has criticized the United States for failing to apologize for the bloodbath. Concluding, Abella said in the release: Hence our continued connection to the West is the real reason for the Islamic threat in Mindanao. The Philippines became a colony of the United States in the late 19th century, a status which lasted until the 1940s. Since that time, the U.S. has been an ally of the Southeast Asian country. The military presence in Mindanao referred to by Duterte was put into place in 2002 for the purported reason of fighting the Muslim insurgency group Abu Sayyaf. The Philippines desire to move toward China comes at a time when the two nations are attempting to findcommon ground on the issue of territorial claims in the South China Sea. In a case brought by the Philippines, an arbitration court at The Hague ruled in July that China did not, in fact, have sovereign claim to the vast majority of those waters. Progress toward cooperation has been made in recent weeks, however, with China appearing more willing to work with the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) countries, including the Philippines, on issues of shared responsibility for the South China Sea. China has also pointed out that external forces such as the U.S. militarys involvement in the dispute has gotten in the way of resolving a wholly regional issue. In an August article in the state-run Global Times, Chinas Vice Foreign Minister was quoted as saying that both ASEAN and China are aware that they hold the key to solving the South China Sea issues, given the increasingly complicated situation, especially interference from outside forces.

Sounds like the President Duterte is a basket case, on par with rest of the worlds Pathocrats / Kakistocracies. When Duterte.was running for president of the Philippines, he promised he would be a dictator. He said he would authorize the army and police force to wage a drug war and use extrajudicial killings against suspects (i.e. literally anyone) who resisted. He said he would shut down Congress if they ever tried to impeach him. There is a shift but the above article is exaggerating the rift a bit. Duterte publicly said he has no intention of cutting ties with Washington including military alliances and his call for the removal of US troops is due to concerns they will be targeted by the terror group Abu Sayyaf. The entire world is going hard core totalitarianwere just not being told about it in a holistic manner. The alt media is also not reporting the brutal crackdowns on mild dissent in China and Russia, people sent to labor camps and Siberia for sharing articles on social media or blogging about corruption. President Duterte justified the assassination of journalists. Its absolute insanity. They went to Afghanistan for the Opium and to Iraq for the Oil, The US military has been the muscle man for the global elite, pillaging and overthrowing sovereign nations and its a a disgrace most Americans have been too brainwashed to see the truth or care enough to stop it. Replacing this hammer with a Rothschild / Rockefeller UN controlled global military force isnt the way forward towards a free humanity either. Using accurate verifiable information to describe Duterte from one of the most respected alternative media researchers is not disinformation. We grew our hemp there after prohibition. Wonder if we still do. I think BDS ~ Boycott, Divest, Sanction could be in play here. Getting US troop out the Philippines would be good for both nations. Very true, if that meant the pendulum is swinging towards national sovereignty, away from globalism, and towards empowerment of the people. Unfortunately, it looks like the NWO is preparing its re-alignment for global governancetimed with Obama officially signing over control over the internet protocols to ICANN, the founding chairwoman Ester Dyson a CFR and Trilateralist stooge, working hand in hand with an international internet global management committee including Michael Chertoff former DHS Secretary and executive of the corporation that produces the naked body scanners. source: The New American: Who Will Control Your Internet 10/22/16 Bravo Pres. Duterte! US colonial presence there has nothing to do with fighting terrorism; this is in order for the ever savage parasite Zionist/ISra*l-controlled U*/NA*Os NWO and their allies Well it should be if a country wants us gone WE LEAVE! Barack cumbya needs to what is wanted!! Sick of the government acting like an ex-wife! Well, well. As with Sewer Nations treachery in Iran in the 50s which led to 25 years of murder/oppression under the Shah, Truth be known, (yeah, right. from the kosher media?), after the slaughter Sewer Nation inflicted on the Philippines people round the turn of the last century, Im surprised it took those people this long to put someone in power honest enough to call a terrorist entity what it is; A western colony of Israel and Central Bank enforcer. Now that the global elite have conquered the middle east, they are turning their Totalitarian Eyes of Sauron on the west. World government is an old plan which we all know.but last month a tip from an selfnews Post reader lead to finding a book from 1926 on the takeover. Its a perspective that will strongly resonate with your views, Paschn. http://www.resist.com/SecretGovernment-Spiridovich.pdf In a word; Wow. One neednt be an astrophysicist to see why, along with Solzhenitsyns 200 years together, this piece of art is hidden from we Goim. Trying againmy reply was sent down the memory hole by The Ministry of Truth. Youre welcome, and I hope you can help those of us pointing out how TPTB are using distractions and Kabuki maneuvers to keep the awakened from understanding World Govt is the Neofeudal techno Matrix from He11 unfolding before us in every nation controlled by the usual suspects. Theyve been playing us for centuries, the Psy 0ps are incredibly elaborate. Heres one more website I think youll find historically compelling, Paschn. http://www.yamaguchy.com/default2.html Its not as active as it used to be, more of an archive now. Some documents go back to the 1800s. About the globel elite have conquered the middle east: not so fast, my good man. Desperately changed course from Syria, bringing first their secret armies over to Libya and are now bombing the Libyan people and the country of course into oblivion. More US soldiers are going to die for Big Corporations. But the Elite are NOT there yet, not as easy as they thought it would be. Yes, yes, your words are well taken as Ive long known about Smedley Butler, the Shock Doctrine, the domestic and international use of the dialect, the details of how the banksters created, propped up, funded both sides and then instigated the major wars and conflicts for centuries. As well, mind control, assassinations, the m.o. for deep capture of industries, governments and nation states. Its a painful burden to be this awakewhich is, no doubt, a big reason why the sheeple slumber. With all due respect, the elite are not in dire straights in the middle east, the Greater Middle East Project of order out of chaos and creative destruction is coming along as planned. Syria is exactly what they planned from the beginningincluding the planted meme of Syria being one of the 7 countries told to us by the impossible situation of the public whistle blowing of General Wesley Clark, a staunch global elite minion and close friend of the Clintons. Clark would never be involved in that type of leap unless he was an actor in a Psy 0p. Last year Clark said in a televised interview he supports putting disloyal Americans who oppose the global war on terror (thought criminals) in internment camps! He is a globalist totalitarian and his tale of being informed of the plan by a subordinate is completely absurd. Theres more as I have incontrovertible evidence Syria, Iran, and Russias elites have long been in bed with the globalists (follow the money!) and have been implementing the NWO neoliberal paradigm since the 90s, including building out the infrastructure for UN Agendas 21 and 2030, The central banks of all 3 are tied to the Bank of International Settlements, the Rothschild controlled big daddy central bank of virtually all central banks. The conflict in Syria was designed long ago to be a smokescreen for the creation of ISIS, Operation Cyclone 2.0, an excuse to bring prominence to the UN as referee and the meme of a world military and police force to fight terrorism. As well, the agenda has been to create scapegoats as cover for the plan to gradually switch out the dollar reserve system for a UN/IMF/BIS centrally controlled global [digital] currency. It would take an entire article to demonstrate to you that the rise of authoritarian Technocracy in the middle east based on UN Agenda 2030 is unfolding VERY RAPIDLY right now, including constant Orwellian biometric tracking, monitoring, and surveillance on a level approaching China. Besides the wealthy Gulf states, Iran is far along into this pattern too with Tehran already a heavily electronically monitored UN Sustainable Smart City. In 2011, the Saudis spearheaded the formation of a regional government system called the GCC, it has all the earmarks the UN-IMF style governance in parallel with the EU. I agree, the elite are not finished, yet, but the hour is much later than the majority of the alt media is telling you and others. If you want more details on what Ive shared please dont hesitate to ask, Im here to shine the brightest light I can and to learn from others. Regards, blue579 Thanks, blue579. Useful info, great. Agenda 21 is the older paradigm, more focused on the local organization of infrastructure, whereas, Agenda 2030 focuses on the RADICAL economic transformation away from crony capitalism and what little is left of free markets and towards the carbon credit energy based system of strict rationing using high tech tracking and monitoring on the level of the individual.to be managed by appointed bureaucrats (technocrats) under the control of the TPTB who are further centralizing control over ALL resources, in a tight legal grip largely via treaties and privatization. The latter, PRIVATIZATION, is one of the three pillars of 2030 Technocracy, along with AUSTERITY (in the west to be driven by continuous targeted inflation), and, of course, the electronic straight jackets that can monitor all activities and shut down all dissent with the tapping of a few keys singling out individuals to be cut off from bank transactions, work, travel, electricity, internet, phone, etc. Truly it is the mark of the beast, being adopted around the globe as this article demonstrates (and even beyond that). http://www.wakingtimes.com/2016/08/26/the-emerging-mark-of-the-beast-system/ The specific program being rolled out in the middle east right now is UN Agenda 2030 and is euphemistically referred to in the press (such as Wall Street Journal) as Vision 2030. Last week the Washington Post described the Saudi and middle east. transformation as a revolution disguised as economic reform, and it truly is radical especially that level of control to be exerted on the west in the not too distant future. Westerners arent conditioned to that degree of authoritarianism, thats why we are some of the last ones to experience the crushing boot on our necks. Europe first, then the US, in a wave like motion with increased censorship kicking it off. On Sept 11, the Wall Street Journal, the elites favorite media lapdog to introduce major policy shifts to the managerial class, described a solution to the problem of low inflation and that is to give central bankers MORE DIRECT CONTROL over economic programs and policies to unleash helicopter money on the masses. As you can well imagine, as prices of basic necessities skyrocket at some point the public would become increasingly dependent on government subsidies and government control in order to get by. Thats the essence of both Agendas 21 and 2030. Its diabolical at its core to enslave humanity like that but it is being seductively sold as (1) efficient and cool technology (smart phones, smart grid, smart meters, smart cards, etc.); (2) a more fair re-distribution scientifically managed (technocracy); (3) in a manner that protects the environment (thus the tie to the climate change meme). You can imagine the medias terrible coverage of the election circus, the largely engineered clashes between left vs. right, the choice of a sick and despised Hillary, and revelations of corruption by co-intelpro leakers are being done in a way to make the public so utterly disgusted with politics and fearful of some kind of catastrophe that they will submit to rule by non elected experts under a more authoritarian system. Were being led by the nose. As far as the backlog goes, the interventions were faked, orchestrated geopolitical waltzing to distract and create a false hope that some other nation state entities would derail or stall the rise of the NWO. Totally a ruse because during that time a tremendous amount of progress has been made setting the stage for 2030 the post carbon era as its being described in the establishment and all over the middle east. Recall, in the last five years the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) has been formed and is increasingly interdependent with laws and cultural practices already harmonized. The biometric tracking is heavy. For instance, in Saudi Arabia, you cannot use a smart phone unless you have registered your fingerprints with the government, the fingerprints being required to activate your phone each time you use it, soon the phones will be commonly used for purchases. TPTB still want to physically chip us and they see the smart phone as the temporary substitute and stepping stone. Twilight Zone, huh? When I fully woke up after 9/11, I didnt imagine TPTB would get this far in my lifetime. I hoped I would be old and gray, or long dead, and better yet, the whole scheme would completely unravel. Gotta keep resisting them whatever the odds, the alternative is too unthinkable for me. Kind Regards, blue579 Fine no more foreign aide or anything. You think the Third world are beggars?! Whist the ZioNazi-controlled Wezz can rob/mass murder in GENOCIDE of the Muslim/Third World and their poor masses? I agree with booting them out of all countries!!!!!
