The sputtering anti-Duterte campaign of a dishonest Yellowtard-communist Axis

Anti-Duterte propaganda is out in full force including that nefarious radio program Kuwatro Alas on what is the former DZMM now resurrected under a new owner.

In a shooting war between a Western democratic power and an authoritarian Islamic state, whose side will you take?

Sure Israel bombed Gaza to smithereens and, sure, it is now doing pre-emptive strikes on military targets in Iran. Sure, the United States, is now involved in this conflagration and, together with Israel, will likely bring the Islamic regime of Iran to its knees. So what’s wrong with all that?
