Rodrigo Duterte: Potential terrorist/enemy of freedom

[Rasputin_Vol]

I will be watching how the media portrays this guy.

I'm really curious why this guy is all of a sudden at the top of the pages of Google's search terms and the center of major mainstream news outlets. The Philippines are not a major country in the grand scheme of things.

remember all that talk of the trade going through the south china sea, yeah. it is one of the busiest shipping channels in the world (i think for a time it was). right now the Philippines are only a footnote because of the long standing peace we have ushered in. If China is willing to build islands out of nothing in the area it seems any actual land in that area has some pretty extreme value to someone.

we have a skewed view of what areas are important in the world today because we don't fight over them like we used to. Thanks America. as much as Prof drones on about geography being a key indicator in how things will shape up he does have a point.

If nothing else look at Risk. Every game has someone start with Australia and the Philippines are part of Indonesia. boom.

While that may be true you have to admit he's a shrewd judge of character..

So he's a terrorist. How should we deal with him?

There is no blanket way to handle every problem. We could pull a Putin and just poison his tea, shoot him on a bridge, or arrest him for his music though.

Also he is a terroist to his own people not to us. So quite frankly I don't give a **** about him.

 

[n_huffhines]

The people love him for the most part. Give it time.

Anything the MSM media condemns or praises, go the opposite way. The media has been attacking on both of these guys.

The Philippine vice president said Sunday that she will resign her Cabinet post, citing "major differences in principles and values" with President Rodrigo Duterte and an unspecified plot to remove her from the vice presidency.
