But, this poll still shows that people in the Philippines still see the US as the greater threat? Despite China's more recent spat in the South China Sea, despite the propaganda, the Philippines still sees the US as the greatest threat to the world. Japan is the only country that sees China as a threat, which mostly stems from imperial humiliation at China defeating Japanese occupation.

Germany is a has-been country that basically just helps Israel commit genocide, but not really much else.

The US didn't exactly ever stop killing millions of people. They just hop country to country, Philippines to Korea to Indonesia to Vietnam to Iraq, a million here and a million there, spreading death and destruction all around the world. Those are just the big ones, if we start including the tens and hundreds of thousands there's Chile, Argentina, Libya, Syria, Afghanistan, Gaza, and on and on.

Remember, we're talking about what country is the biggest threat to the world. It's not China and it's not Russia.

China is already squatting in Philippines’ sovereign waters, and you think China won’t do anything in the future?

I think this conflict will be resolved peacefully because neither country benefits from open conflict. China doesn't really do war.

Besides, the US-caused energy crisis is going to do more to deprive Philippine fishermen of their livelihoods than China ever has.

Its only manifest destiny if its American; otherwise its lower quality outsourcing /s

Then you have trouble with comprehensive reading.
I am not questioning IF but WHY, as I literally used the word WHY
