  2.  @JJ-cc7gx  Oceania is generally not involved, but Australian east coast trade with Japan and South Korea occurs via the East Philippines Sea route while Australian west coast trade with Japan and South Korea occurs via the West Philippines Sea / South China Sea route.

  3.  @KO-sx9uy  >ignoring the fact that America invaded the philippines first False. Refers to Islam followed by the Spanish Catholics. Buddhism-Hinduism was present in the pre-colonial Philippines.

  4.  @lengenius4579  >As far as returning the stolen country of Hawaii That's a false narrative. Hawaii has a valid referendum.

  5.  yeetian2774  Ukraine doesn't have a NATO Article 5 mutual defense pact. Ukraine has a weaker Budapest Memorandum.

  6.  yeetian2774  >Where was the USA and Philippine 🇺🇸 when China claimed that area in 1947? 1. ROC was busy with its conflict against the CPC. 2. ROC didn't enforce its 11-dash line paper claim.

  7.  @johnwong8336  The Ukraine war benefits US manufacturers since reactivating Korean war-era factories and allowing robotics upgrades.

  8.  @jedandreicalasan  >Did anyone this war the Philippine American war Not a major issue for the present human generation when the current Philippines has its independence. President Xi's argument is based on historical Imperial China's Ten Great Campaigns. Territorial disputes around Xi's China are based on Imperial China's Ten Great Campaigns. The Ten Great Campaigns (Chinese: 十全武功; pinyin: Shíquán Wǔgōng) were a series of military campaigns launched by the Qing dynasty of China in the mid–late 18th century during the reign of the Qianlong Emperor (r. 1735–1796). They included three to enlarge the area of Qing control in Inner Asia: two against the Dzungars (1755–1757) and the "pacification" of Xinjiang (1758–1759). The other seven campaigns were more in the nature of police actions on frontiers already established: two wars to suppress the Gyalrong of Jinchuan, Sichuan, another to suppress the Taiwanese Aboriginals (1787–88), and four expeditions abroad against the Burmese (1765–1769), the Vietnamese (1788–1789), and the Gurkhas on the border between Tibet and Nepal (1790–1792), with the last counting as two. During the 4th Sino-Burmese Wars starting in 1768, Imperial China invaded the Kingdom of Burma. Burma hired European musketeers and gunners, hence Burma allied itself with the rising French Empire against Imperial China's invasion. In modern times, China's imperialist actions against Vietnam have spread to Vietnam's neighbor i.e. Philippines. The old world conflict zones remain similar in modern times.

  9.  @joeyp1927  >China is alone among the big nations (US, Japan, UK, France, Russia, etc) in NOT being a colonizer FALSE. China has invaded Vietnam more than once: Han conquest of Nanyue (111 BC) Trung sisters' rebellion (40-43 AD) Lady Triệu Rebellion (248) Lý Nam Đế Rebellion (543) Sui–Former Lý War (602) Mai Thúc Loan Rebellion (713–723) Phùng Hưng Rebellion (791) Tĩnh Hải-Southern Han War (930) Dương Đình Nghệ Rebellion (931) 2nd Tĩnh Hải-Southern Han War (938) Former Lê-Song War (981) Lý–Song War (1075–1077) Mongol invasions of Đại Việt (1257–1288) Ming invasion of Đại Ngu (1406–07) Later Trần revolt (1407–1413) Lam Sơn uprising (1418–1427) Naval battle in the Gulf of Tonkin between Yang Yandi and the Lê dynasty (Dương Ngạn Địch) (1682) Qing invasion of Đại Việt (1789) Battle of the Paracel Islands (1974) Sino-Vietnamese War (1979) Sino-Vietnamese conflicts (1979–1991) (including Johnson South Reef Skirmish (1988)) China's different languages are echoes of the past separate kingdoms.

  10.  @L110508  >The US will send weapons for ph to fight until the last Filipino. US' interest is only to weaken china, ph is nothing in US' interest. In another word, pawn. Just like Ukraine That's a FALSE narrative. 1. 1863–1864 January uprising, Russian Empire crushed Polish, Lithuanian, and Ukrainian insurgents uprising. 2. Soviet–Ukrainian War occurred between 1917 to 1921, a war between the Ukrainian People's Republic vs the Bolsheviks i.e. Ukrainian Soviet Republic and the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (modern-day Russian Federation). These "old world" issues existed before the US became a superpower. The US's involvement with Ukraine is done by Ukrainian descendants who fled the Soviet–Ukrainian War that occurred in 1917. Ukraine does not forget. Regardless of the economic system, the Grand Duchy of Moscow's imperialist behavior remained the same. Being communist doesn't hide the fact the Grand Duchy of Moscow didn't change its nationalist expansion.

  11.  @johncue1358  >china have been building military installations all over scs for years. Did the US and its Allies counter chinas actions? It's up to the Philippines government to activate its defense treaty with the US. Blame Corazon Aquino and successive governments i.e. Fidel Ramos.
