The History of The Philippines Before Magellan (3000 BCE - 1521 CE)
On this article I'm going to share to you some interesting facts about Philippines. The Philippines is an archipelago situated in the Pacific Ocean, comprising over seven thousand islands. It lies on a subduction zone within the geologically active Ring of Fire, which extends from Japan to Alaska and California, making the islands mineral-rich but also prone to destructive earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Of the 7,000 islands, only around 1,000 are inhabited, most of them small, roughly one square mile in size. The archipelago is divided into three main island groups: Luzon in the north, the Visayas in the center, and Mindanao in the south. Luzon, home to the capital Manila, is the most populous.

Memorial Day Memories
The salty breeze whipped my hair across my face as I stood at the edge of the weathered pier, the vast expanse of the ocean mirroring the vastness of the emotions swirling within me. It was Memorial Day weekend, a time for barbecues, fireworks, and the unofficial kick-off to summer. But for me, it was a day etched with a bittersweet ache, a day of remembrance for the father I never truly knew, Sergeant Michael O'Connell.

I Will Always
Why have I never felt loved? My life as a child was filled with sadness. I felt like I didn't belong. I can remember as far back as when I was 1 year old. I used to have nightmares and wake up crying. For a long time, it was a bad dream. Maybe I watched something on TV. But as time went on, I was having these dreams often. I couldn't understand why, but I could remember so much of my life starting to show itself. As I got older, life showed itself to me. So first off, I never felt loved as a child. I was teased for having big eyes. I even had a wooden chair with big eyes written on it. My dad was a hard worker, and my mom was as well, but he was rarely home, so everything that happened, he wasn't represented. This is how my story goes. I beat the torture example. I would get beat up when my siblings were. I've beat it straight out of the bath tub. My mom allowed my oldest to beat me when I ran away because I no longer wanted to live at home. I remember my dad driving me to school, and he would give me bus money to come home. So I would save the money and walk home. I never had a plan, but one day I noticed that I had quite a bit saved up. So I ran home to people that I knew, and of course my mom did as well. I wasn't a bad child. Remember when I said that I was shy and didn't have a voice because I was scared to say a word? These went on about five times. I was even threatened that if it happened again, I was going to get put in juvenile detention. I remember the last time I ran away, it had snowed outside, so I went to a store to keep warm. As life started getting worse, I've been raped by my family. Which one ended up being a police officer later in life? Who has children to miss? Who has children, allowing others to take the youth? All my life, I never felt love until I was eighteen years old. I met the man of my life. God sent an angel to protect me and love me unconditionally. This is something that I never thought could happen. He was a solider. He was strong, and he witnessed something that I had experienced. That's when my life started changing in a direction I never would have expected. At the age of eighteen, he was fifteen years older than me, but he was the love of my life. He protected me and took me away from my abusive life. But it was hard. He helped me escape my abusers and attackers. I never would have imagined that I would be a military wife. I've traveled the world with my husband and children. When I get sad these days from feeling alone, I think about the good times we had together. He is no longer living, and a huge part of my life is so empty. Honestly, I don't think that I will ever find love again. I have four adult children and five grandchildren, so maybe that is the only love I will ever get. I ever said this: I do have love. God's love, my grandson's love, and my granddaughter's love. I'm not selfish, and I don't ask for anything. But have you ever set back and said why?

this episode and others like it are brought to you by the liberal help of my benefactors on patreon get a few cool advantages and assist with supporting the show by contributing your philosophy. crashcourse Loi arrangement again this is one of those points where I would rather not be an expert moderator I simply need to converse with you as a person who's been watching the most terrible pictures I've found in my life throughout recent months and attempt to manage some of it on October seventh 2023 the Palestinian opposition took the battle to the Israeli occupation and took the breeze out of him a tad for the individuals who some way or another don't know about the circumstance in Gaza the Palestinian public have been exposed to a severe and destructive occupation for 3/4 of a century it's a boring tale and assuming you might want to hear a greater amount of it we put out a first thought examination episode some time back that covers the historical backdrop of Israel and the start of their ethnic purging effort we likewise did a deprogram episode with the superb individuals who run decolonize palestine. uh and another great asset is Elon pape's book the ethnic purifying of Palestine Pape is an Israeli history specialist so before you go blaming me for just recommending Expert Palestine sources perhaps give that one a read you can find everything Connected In the depiction for the individuals who can't be annoyed here's an extremely short synopsis of what hinted at this point as hostile to Semitism erupted in Europe amidst the universal conflicts we additionally saw the advancement of the political Zionist development which was fundamentally a push to lay out a Jewish ethnostate some place on the planet that ought to have been the main warning ethnos States aren't by and large something worth being thankful for you may be shocked to discover that Palestine was by all accounts not the only choice on the rundown there were numerous different areas considered on various mainlands and those spots were at that point involved as the evil of despotism compromised Jewish individuals in Europe and less significantly the remainder of the world political Zionism won a specific measure of seen authenticity particularly among the English Tip top in 1948 with the vicious backing of the English military the province of Israel was established on Taken Palestinian land and it's vital to note here that taken land doesn't mean vacant space dislike local people were going gracious you took my unfilled fix of soil no the European Trespassers effectively held onto basic Farmland port urban communities stretches of Shoreline puts that were involved and served an essential job in Palestinian existence obviously this was all entirely legitimate as per exceptionally official bits of paper so the pioneers could wave off the monstrosities they carried out to guarantee the land one of these records UN goal 181 gave the pilgrims 55% of the land which is made much more crazy by the way that the UN had no lawful right to do so and didn't talk with the Palestinian public prior to embracing the goal obviously they were pissed and war broke out what followed is today known as the nakba or calamity somewhere in the range of 1947 and 1949 exactly 750,000 Palestinians were removed from their familial home the Zionist seized 78% of noteworthy Palestine ethnically purified and destroyed north of 500 Towns and urban communities and killed no less than 15,000 Palestinians in the process today pilgrims who were there at the time giggle about the barbarities they perpetrated on [Music] camera B years from now understudies will compose papers looking at the Holocaust and the nakba and the racial enmity that drove the two massacres and a ton of dissidents at present both siding this decimation will gesture genuinely and say we simply didn't have any idea how terrible it was very much like the great Germans moved during the' 40s it was [ __ ] then, at that point, and it's [ __ ] presently a many individuals feel that the Noba finished in 1948 it didn't that was only the principal significant heightening of a mission of complete elimination that proceeds right up until today when you see the Twitter post making statements like there was a truce on October sixth understand that individuals expressing those things are either oblivious in which case you can help them by giving assets or are effectively attempting to muddle reality we realize Israel has a multitude of paid banners to scatter promulgation and shut down analysis online since the day the primary European homesteader set foot in Palestine there has been a Relentless stream of violations perpetrated for the sake of the political Zionist task buddy Palestinian homes are routinely and wrongfully wrecked Palestinians face erratic captures and embarrassing designated spots getting to school and back whole Towns are ethnically purged explicitly for as of late relocated European and American Jews to fabricate new repayments on Palestinian land again these repayments are globally perceived as unlawful by worldwide regulation and this point is emphasized at each un Culmination to no significant change the Gaza Strip populated by north of 2 million individuals in a space about the size of Detroit is completely cut off from the other world all passageways all through Gaza are constrained by the Israeli military imports and products are vigorously limited and work potential open doors are basically non-existent practically all water assets are undrinkable by Plan and non military personnel foundation is routinely designated by Israeli air strikes grants are regularly denied for the structure of homes regular citizen framework streets sewage frameworks and schools consider it what it is a con death camp assuming you force a populace into an encased region you control the food the water power fuel medication in a real sense all that goes in or out in the event that you put a super advanced wall around it with facial acknowledgment and computerized firearms on the off chance that you regularly kill individuals inside to additional your objective of an ethnostate which isolates you from the Nazis it's hard not to lash out while you're discussing this stuff since's it's so staggeringly clear who the miscreants are but Israel dumps huge amounts of cash into imagining they're the casualties Let's be real, I've never seen a casualty who can stop their oppressors food water power and capacity to move uninhibitedly spontaneously so presently I must make a presumption since I won't burn through my time attempting to prevail upon individuals who actually think Israel is in the right when they've seen generally the very film that I've seen possibly you're a respectable individual or you're not so the Supposition that I will make is that on the off chance that you're actually watching this video you're one of those fair individuals we're in total agreement what's going on in Gaza is the most glaring illustration of slaughter in current history until the end of the video I need to discuss everything that that implies what does it say to us when a nation like Israel can carry out these gigantic demonstrations and face zero results when it tends to be denounced by far most of the world including organizations like the UN and pull off it when we see this on Twitter the Western press actually says that this is all palestine's shortcoming it requires 34 seconds of looking over to get to the names of kids one-year-old to place the size of Israel's wrongdoings against youngsters in context in the last long periods of the conflict when Germany was truly increase their eradication crusade the Nazis killed 127 youngsters each day in aitz Israeli occupation powers are currently killing 139 kids each day at season of composing Israel has killed north of 27,000 Palestinians in 4 months contrast that with the 15,000 killed more than a 2-year time frame during the nakba but in spite of those numbers in spite of the enormous conventions for Palestine all over the planet in spite of lawmakers getting shoes tossed at them and exchange being disturbed we don't actually hear anything from the corporate media and we really can't move the heads of the Western World why the simple response is that Israel serves the premium of the US here's Joe Biden, harking back to the 1980s there's no conciliatory sentiment to be made none it is the best $3 billion speculation we make were there not an Israel the US of America would need to create an Israel to safeguard her premium in the district the US would need to go out and create an Israel the US and its vassal states rely upon having key tractions all around the world Israel is urgent in such manner filling in as an undermining force in the district a valuable knowledge Station a center for Western faculty and obviously a rewarding exchange accomplice particularly when with regards to weapons of war yet when the kickback is this extraordinary when legislators are being pestered any place they go when activists are closing down weapons plants hindering boats Destined for Israel when Biden's endorsement rating is the most minimal of any advanced president wouldn't it be simpler to give a few concessions to give Israel a token punishment and make them stop the most awful of their abominations for to some extent a short time this is the way typical individuals think this isn't the way world pioneers extremists and oligarchs think Joe Biden however intellectually ill suited as he may be for the gig is as yet the leader of the US He is the most influential man on the planet things like non military personnel losses are just one of many bits of paper that cross his work area on some random day individuals detesting him is essential for the gig Global emergencies are essential for the gig he like each and every other president sees most of us as NPCs little Sims going around his nation we're unimportant in the event that we have a little red furious face over us he can pull a few switches and divert most of individuals with battle over Ukraine or Taiwan or try and disregard them for a couple of months and this isn't to tease the typical individual the vast majority are occupied we lack opportunity and willpower to make quick work of each and every international issue it's to say that when you are in a, strategic, influential place you have choices to make your concerns disappear and in some cases you don't for even a moment need to do anything by any means and the loud miscreants will ultimately get exhausted and continue on what plan of action do we have in a circumstance
