“**WE NEGLECTED THE PHILIPPINES.” – the answer Fermin Jaudenes the last Spanish Governor-General of the Philippines gave during his court-martial hearing on the question why the once mighty Spanish Empire was lost.

This is exactly what the U.S. did in 1934 when the Philippines was first abandoned at the height of the Great Depression.  There was no referendum asking the Filipino people or the American people if we wanted “the path to independence” that is the Commonwealth.

 

The abandonment of the Philippine territory did not escape Sir Winston Churchill who warned that “the national duty, dignity and honour of the United States are at stake.”

After suffering over 64,000 U.S. casualties in the liberation of the Philippines in WWII, instead of helping its own territory recover as it did Japan, again the Philippines was abandoned with the Rescission Act of 1946 signed by Pres. Truman on Feb. 18, 1946.

Of the 66 nations who fought with the U.S. in WWII, only the Filipinos were denied military benefits per the Rescission Act of (Feb.) 1946.

However two days later Pres. Truman issued 38 Statement saying that Filipino veterans are in fact U.S. nationals until July 4, 1946 when independence was to be granted.

Then came the Treaty of Manila that prematurely and irresponsibly granted dependent-independence to the former U.S. territory. It was ratified by the U.S. Senate on 22 Oct. 1946.

Let us see what happens on Dec. 21, 2016. Is this the last call?

“Treason and false flag presidency are highly contagious.”

 Could we demand that Spain, France, Belgium, Germany & other EU members withdraw recognition of the so-called Republic of the Philippines founded on lies, treason and dishonor? Even after WWII, Japanese collaborators retained power and today it is the grandchildren of these oligarch-traitors who rule the Philippines wholeheartedly supported by Spain and France, among others.

From Sept. 15 to 19, 2014, Aquino III visited Spain, France, Belgium and Germany. As fate would have it, in Jan. 2015 the Charlie Hebdo massacre happened. While in the Philippines on 25 Jan. 2015 an arrest warrant was served to an Islamist terrorist bomb-maker, Marwan, who was on FBI’s 10 most wanted list. He resisted arrest and was killed. However on the way back, 44 US-trained police commandos were massacred when Philippine Pres. Aquino III refused to provide reinforcements including air and artillery support. The doomed anti-terrorist unit pleaded for reinforcements for 12 hours.

Using the botched raid as an excuse it is believed Aquino III and the oligarchs deliberately sacrificed the lives of the 44 SAF-PNP commandos to delay US Forces deployment in the Philippines. 

Philippine President Benigno Aquino III later announced that the plans to give U.S. troops, warships and aircraft wider access to military bases that the Obama administration sought for its strategic “pivot” to Asia is postponed indefinitely. The planned expansion has been stalled since.

Nonetheless on 26 Feb. 2015 French President Hollande visited Aquino III in show of support.

The visit is a first by an incumbent French leader to the country since the establishment of diplomatic relations in 1947. France is the PHL’s second largest trading partner in the European Union (EU) with two-way trade amounting to US$2.39 billion in October 2014.

MONDAY 15 SEPTEMBER 2014

Royal treatment

Excerpt: “With SPAIN (which has offered to be the Philippines’ voice in the European Union) [WOW! The former colonial master is offering to be the Philippines’ voice in the EU? Rich!], Belgium, France and Germany all seeking a resolution of the territorial disputes through processes provided under international law, the President said it was time to “get to a stage where we have reasonable and doable objectives.”

From red carpets to military honors at Arc de Triomphe in Paris, Aquino was treated like royalty during his visit – when he wasn’t actually meeting with royalty that is. Aquino was welcomed by Spain’s King Felipe VI in the Palace of Zarzuela in Madrid, and later by Belgian King Philippe at the Royal Palace in Brussels.
