    Tucked in here is the statement that the Philippines will support the USA in defending Taiwan. Linked to the agreement to allow US forces in the Philippines and you can work out a scenario.

    Ooooh defiant. Rubbing me the wrong way in every direction. Like how I used to roll eyes every time an adult scolded me for being defiant and rebellious. That is red hot framing bias so I know the author is hoodwinked too.

    The public attn on this has cooled off a bit, no recent dismembered corpse/love crimes in news. I think we should continue to educate and alert ppl on how to spot tell tale signs of a dangerous lover, so you can avoid altogether because they tend to turn into psychotic exs.

    US deploying nuclear capable B52's to Nothern Australia and spending US$100m on an "Operations facility" to maintain them.
