MANILA, Philippines — In another rant against the United States and critics of his handling of the maritime dispute between Manila and Beijing, President Rodrigo Duterte dared Washington to

He lambasted his critics, particularly Supreme Court Senior Associate Justice Antonio Carpio, former Foreign Secretary Albert del Rosario and former Ombudsman Conchita Carpio Morales for criticizing his China policy.“If war breaks out, I will drag them out,” he said in a speech on Friday night at the opening of Chen Yi Agventures Rice Processing Center in Alangalang town, Leyte province.

China and the United States have repeatedly traded barbs in the past over what Washington says is Beijing’s militarization of the strategic waterway by building military installations on artificial islands and reefs. The Pentagon recently claimed that China test fired missiles from the islands recently, but this was denied by Beijing.

“There is always America pushing us, egging us … making me the bait. What do you think Filipinos are, earthworms?” he said. “I am not about to order my soldiers to go to the mouths of hell to die without a fight. I cannot do that,” he said.

Duterte challenges US to fire 'first shot' at ChinaThis guy is a moron. What is occupied is a Philippine territory. It should be the Philippines that should assert its sovereign rights. The Mutual Defence Pact with the US is if the Philipines is attacked by another country. Dude America has policy that prohibits it from firing first. Pick up the phone, tell Locsin to confirm or you can call the US Ambassador yourself. The issue is between the Phil and China. Don’t evade or muddy the water. Basta Low IQ gyera agad nasa isip. Ibang bansa ba may gyera while asserting their rights?
