[nWo 4 Life]

Is this Asian Observe Chinese wumao? Philippinos are not like these.

In case he is, here's a gift of history for him that his Communist masters have hid from him:

Indian troops, on the steps of the Temple of Heaven, were the first to enter the Legation Quarter during Boxer Rebellion.

In Marawi Islamists learned how to respect the Philippine military. All Islamist leader in Marawi were sent to their Islamist hell.

Indeed, sister.

He is basically an American apologist. He goes to every thread and shouts the same things: American weapons are best, american people are best, american policy is best, american history is the best, american geography is the best, america is best etc.

He generally keeps quiet in most threads. But as soon as someone mentions America, he appears out of nowhere and repeats his rants.

Filipinos outfought and outshined the Indians in Korea. Look it up.

India wasn't involved in the fighting..

Filipino version of brown coolie. Describes a lot about his attitude.

Please elaborate

Filipino soldiers whooped Communist Chinese asses in the Korean War. And Filipinos were always outnumbered and never surrendered a position despite being encircled by Chinese troops.

why allow members to post a random twitter account fake news here?

I think the forum only allows news from reputed sources, since when the forum is allowing the fake handles to set the agenda here?

@ezsasa @Indx TechStyle @LETHALFORCE @tarunraju @Yusuf

How do you know the information is fake when an incident has just occurred. List reputed media source. BTW by that logic nothing should be posted here and the forum be reduced as only so called reputed media article or your disjointed impulsive rants?

This guy is being butthurt everywhere, from being sympathetic to pakis to questioning the intents of threads as “troll threads” or he’s too sensitive to reality.

Battle of Yultong:

Instead of retreating, the Pinoys dug up and fought back.

The battle forced the 10th BCT's drivers, typists, clerks, medics, cooks, and even the chaplain to join the active combatants.

Word of advice, it's always better to rely for information from well known and respective private news organizations than unknown Twitter or FB posts.

Military history of the Philippines during World War II - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

The Commonwealth of the Philippines was attacked by the Empire of Japan on 8 December 1941, nine hours after the attack on Pearl Harbor (the Philippines is on the Asian side of the international date line). Although it was governed by a semi-independent commonwealth government, the United States of America controlled the Philippines at the time and possessed important military bases there. The combined American-Filipino army was defeated in the Battle of Bataan and the Battle of Corregidor in April 1942, but guerrilla resistance against the Japanese continued throughout the war.

In 1944, Allied forces liberated the islands from Japanese control in a naval invasion.

Reality has become opposite, I don’t trust media but trust random handles tweeting same thing at the same time regarding an incident.

You do not know if these random posts are from real persons, or even if they're real persons, whether they posted a mere hearsay. News agencies on the other hand have a process for news verification.

Battle of Yultong:

View attachment 107253

Instead of retreating, the Pinoys dug up and fought back.

Ha.....oh boy, where to start?

First of all, it was never really a "war", but police action. Truman never declared war via the conventional congressional process.

Second, a total of 7,420 Filipino soldiers served in Korea from 1950 to 1955 including the end of the Korean War in 1953 and until 1955 consisting of five Battalion Combat Teams (BCTs).

Given that the total number of service personnel to to have fought in this "police action" was estimated to be almost 2 million combined, then the Philippine contribution could not be defined as decisive in any scenario.

Third, it's an exaggeration.

The battle referred here was probably the Battle of Yultong on April 22-23, 1951, as a part of 1st Chinese Spring Offense (aka The Fifth Campaign 第五次戰役 by Chinese).

The 44th Division of 15th Army of CPV were assigned to attack the 65th Regiment of the US 3rd Infantry Division. CPV 44th Division had 131th Regiment and 132nd Regiment at the front and kept 130th Regiment in reserve. 2nd Battalion of the 132nd Regiment was the one directly attacked the sector of PEFTOK (Phillipine Expedition Force to Korea) with 1st and a part of the 3rd battalion going around the sides.

The strength of PEFTOK was about 900 at the time. However, there was no way that they faced 40,000 Chinese soldiers. A Chinese division had around 10,000 soldiers then. Thus the Filipino troops won't face more than 1,500 Chinese soldiers any time that night. I believe it's more likely an even match in strength for both sides in this battle.

Nobody uses unknown twitter handles.. The twitter handles either belong to reputed Afghan journalists, or some local Afghan media handle.. and I generally use common sense, to check whether it's picked up by international News agencies later..

You cannot substantiate your flawed information gathering practice so you pass it off as an awkward laugh?
