The Philippines

Surely the reports on the wireless that Obama has asked his people to review the lessons of the American invasion of the Philippines in 1902 as part of his decision making process regarding a proposed no fly zone over Libya cannot be true! After all every hour passing before an intervention is made by the “free world” only results in more of the freedom fighters, recognised by France at least as the legitimate government, being killed. But perhaps I am being a little sensitive after all how long did it take the Yanks to lend a hand in the first and second World Wars?
