‘Time to say goodbye to US,’ Philippines’ Duterte proclaims on historic China visit
20 October 2016 GMT

It’s “time to say goodbye” to the United States, said Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte on a visit to China, where he and President Xi Jinping are turning the recently-frosty tide with bilateral agreements, while Washington now gets the cold shoulder.

Duterte spoke to the press in Beijing on Wednesday, on the eve of talks with Xi. There was scant information about what was to come on Thursday, but Duterte’s conference coincided with talk of unprecedented agreements being written up – particularly the granting to the Philippines the use of Scarborough Shoal territories – a disputed resource-rich area in the South China Sea.

The firebrand Duterte has been slowly edging away from Washington after coming to power in late June. A series of spats and heated remarks finally resulted in his making good on the promise to mend ties with historic rival, China.

tensions are mounting.... but I still dont think they seriously want to blow up the planet. Fear must keep us in check. Orwellian that is

and earlier this week, I saw a few headlines about the old (and convenient) pakistan-india conflict picking up steam again.

Surely "ISIS" will establish a stronghold in the Philippines within months, needing "intervention."
