"Wounded Filipino soldiers were bayoneted rather than taken prisoner. Whole villages were wiped out with US soldiers killing every man, women and child."
“President William McKinley decided we ought to keep the Philippines in order to Christianize the natives. When reminded that Filipinos were already Roman Catholic, the president responded, ‘Exactly.’
“The United States betrayed the nationalists who had helped us fight Spain, and we began our own conquest.”
"Once they realized they’d been had, the Phillipine people rose in revolt against American rule in February 1899. America unleashed it’s rabid military dogs on them, and 70,000 professional baby-killers (known euphemistically as American soldiers, marines and sailors), spent three years brutally crushing the rebellion. The death toll of Phillipine people was enormous, both from battle casualties and disease. An estimated 200,000 Phillipine men, women and children died horribly at the hands of racist American monsters."
