Freedom arrives: What next for the Littoral Combat Ships?





This is the title of an article by Euan Graham in the Today paper on the arrival of US combat ship Freedom in Singapore. The article was on Monday’s Today. The title is catchy but the meaning is something that keeps everyone guessing and some with the naive delusion that we are going to get our freedom. Is Freedom arriving in Singapore or is it bondage, or is Singapore going to lose its freedom and be caught in many warfares that it does not intend to be involved?


The 4 combat ships are going to give the Americans a bigger bite and in tempering with the affairs of Southeast Asian countries for sure. Without the presence of military assets, they could talk and any action would take time to happen. Now it is like hanging the guns on the tight of the cowboys who are ever ready for a gun draw or a street fight.  The Freedom combat ship will make it so much easy for the Americans to shoot first and talk later.


Southeast Asia, other than Vietnam, has enjoyed a period of relative peace after the WW2, thanks to the absence of American bases here. Vietnam was embroiled in 30 years of warfare against the Americans and only regained peace and independence after driving away the occupying forces. Now the Americans are back and claiming that they are here for peace when we already have had peace all these years after Vietnam. The truth is that the region is now seeing more tension with the American’s presence and their military pivot and increasing their military assets in the region.


Peace and Freedom are the last things that the Americans will bring to Southeast Asia. The aggressive and provocative stance of the Vietnamese and the Filipinos are clear evidences of who is behind their emboldened and belligerent conduct, trying to pick a fight with China.


Just wait and see when and which part of Southeast Asia will go up in flames. The arrival of the littoral combat ships is the first sign of the return of neo colonialism in the region.

Me likes to hear some views from the folks in service, food, taxi and vice industries.
They could offer us many street wise opinions.

From the vice industry, now you can have western girls available in the vice industry. The Australian one seem to have pulled out with intense competition from russian and Eastern Europeans as they provide cheaper services with same stock eg blonde with blue eyes and a dd cup.

Perhaps matilar who is more knowledgeable can advise

Most Asian governments begrudgingly welcome US presence in the region. They don't like China and N Korea, and also the Moose Lims Fundies and their predilection for explosives -- but none of them have the balls to speak up and say so.

So they suck Obama's dick, and he willingly obliges.

Anyway, how can you be a legitimate Super Power if you didn't have a collection of satellite states, ideological enemies to "vanquish", and a clear path to imperialism/ colonialism?

And there'll always be local gals will willingly open their MEAT CURTAINS for some delicious all-American cock.

Ready ladies?

endsThe Vietnamese are of course tested material when it comes to war, but the Pinoys?

Cowered by the Spanish and Cowboys for years and now trying to strut their feathers and pretend to be the flag bearers for their colonial masters?

For decades they have been fighting their own civil wars against the MLF and still are at it. When faced with a disgruntled police hostage taker, they practically folded up and created a mess. Now they want to confront China? We know who is behind them alright!
