To all Filipinos who do not love or like McArthur, ang masasabi ko kayo mga ignorante ,tanga, at walang utang na loob kayo. Basahin ninyo ang explanation ko sa ibaba. Magbasa muna kayo ng history bago kayo magdakdak. I read his book, watch history channei on TV, watch his movie, watch his documentaries, etc. Lahat na tungkol kay McArthur binasa ko at pinanuod ko. You are looking at one of the greatest American hero. Bilib na bilib ang mag kano sa kanya because they knew who he was. Wala naman kayong alam, dakdak lang kayo ng dakdak. He was a military genuis. Sa USA ako nakatira at alam ko, Americans respected him. He was forced to leave the Philippines.He did not want to leave. If he will be captured, it will be a big blow to the US military. He was the highest commander in the Pacific War. He has to follow the the order. Imagine, the highest commander of the Pacific war, was a POW. It means prisoner of war. He was too valuable to be captured. USA was not ready for war. Japan was negotiatiating peace with USA and Japan double cross USA. Japan bombed Pearl Harbor. McArthur had to be sneak out to Australia for safety because he has to plot and plan how to defeat Japan. Also USA has to build war machines, airplanes, battleships, etc. His plan was to go island hopping. Island by island he defeated Japan. Also USA did not want him to go back and liberate the Philippines, but he insisted. It will cost USA too much money and American soldiers, war machines. etc. USA can win the the Pacific war by bypassing the Philippines, and they were right. Because McArthur love the Philippines he has to keep his promise. It cost USA too much money, American lives to liberate the Philippines. Kaya yung ibang Pilipino na tanga, ignorante, dapat magpasalamat kayu kay McArthur.

Thanks General McArthur for your genuinely help us Filipinos during WW2... your always our hero.
He is still up to this day highly regarded here in the Philippines. He loved the Filipino people and they loved him back. On our history books, he is regarded as a hero, bridges, streets, and Plaza's are named after him, statues specially in Leyte Gulf were erected in his honor.
MacArthur clearly loved the Phillpino people. His general father presided over the Philippines. Hence, as a youth, he literally grew up in the Philippines. His memoir entitled "Reminiscences" eloquently describes his life, actions, motivations. Truly, an impressive and inspirational figure.
@@blissjoy825he was living in the philippines before the war
After 1898 his father was the Governor of the islands. I'm sure he grew up there and only knew Filipinos. 😂He must have played in our hills and run around rice paddies. He was given an honorary Filipino citizenship. He's a Saint there. Every corner is named after him.😂
How about those Filipinos who perished during the Battle of Manila/Manila Massacre. They have this vainglorious p@#$% to thank. He thought his oversized ego could scare the Japanese into submission. Truman did the right thing by firing him during the Korean conflict.
@@nguyenvanphuc1663 im sorry but I don't quite well understand your statement the general himself may have committed some errors and mistakes but still he had liberated our country from the Japanese and to counter your statement look at what the Japanese did to our country (Philippines) but to his promise we Filipinos had hope and surely he did honor those words that he would return whatever they think of the general he is and will be forever be a hero to the Filipino
He may be a US citizen, but he is regarded as one of the Philippines' National Hero !
"I Shall Return" is his Words that will never Fade Away, even in a thousand years. Gen.Douglas Mcarthur is Always in our heart & memories.a Great Man Liberator!🙏
Another term for RETREAT!!!! Left Gen Wainright in Corregidor...pathetic!!!
Well, one cannot rule out the possibility that when MacArthur spoke his immortal words "I Shall Return", one of his men MIGHT have replied, "So will a bum check!" 😂😂😂
-- from the book "The Wisecracks That History Forgot"
His fearless and heroics courage to fight for Philippines will be forever remembered.❤❤❤
My favourite General,Douglas Mac Arthur. Tactician n combatan with braveheart

Douglas MacArthur (1880-1964) was an American general who commanded the Southwest Pacific in World War II (1939-1945), oversaw the successful Allied occupation of postwar Japan and led United Nations forces in the Korean War (1950-1953).7
We Filipino people loved and still loves the great general
tang inang general yan atakbo walang bayag
it's Field Marshall MacArthur!his father was Arthur MacArther of the 5th Wisconsin Volunteer Infantryin the Civil Way. MOH winner and the originator of "ONWisconsin!" Dad's regiment was the Iron Brigade outfit with an American bald eagle as itsmascotCarried into battle by the regiment's Aquilifer, the bird had a habit of doing staffing runs over enemy troops, screaming its battle cry and, the Jonny rebs claimed, stealing their hats with its talons!
drea machi Here!!! Here!!!!!👏👏👏👏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
一山田 he was ordered by Washington to retreat
He promised to return, and despite being understaffed, underfunded and left to pick up the pieces of an impossible Theater, he made good on his promise....God Bless MacArthur, God Bless our Filipino brethren, and God Bless the USA.
first of all very BIG THANK YOU SO MUCH. I SALUTE to the veteran sodier SPECIALLY GEN:
DOUGLAS MacArthur; during world war-II,to save my country Philippines and to Protect the Filipino people....god bless AMERICA...

A poetic romantic warrior great GENERAL OF OUR AMERICA.❤️🇺🇲❤️🙏❤️ You SIR WILL NEVER FADE AWAY esp. for the Filipino, & Japanese who you showed mercy & forgiveness, which is still in the Filipino, Japanese, & Korean psyche❤️🇵🇭.🇯🇵🇰🇷🇺🇲❤️
Roosevelt ordered MacArthur out of the Philippines after receiving a call from Winston Churchill. Churchill reminded Roosevelt of the debacle in our military force's morale should MacArthur become a POW of the Japanese. Also MacArthur, Roosevelt and Churchill were, in fact, distant cousins (Sarah Belcher was their Great Grandmother).
IT IS IN THE BLOOD! GOOD GENES. GOOD MEN.
and also in ww1 almost all of the european powers were related to queen victoria.
so it was just one big family feud
I tend to agree with the recall story. Well done for promulgating it.
MacArthur never explained why he delaid ordering American and Philippine troops to go on general alert for over twelve hours after he was informed of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.
Due Respect and tribute To Sir DMA.... Regards from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳
I have read from cover to cover of a biography of Gen. McArthur "American Caesar" by William Manchester, an spent countless teary eyes on each and every pages and chapters of the book. Indeed...
" Victory has a thousand father, defeat is an orphan". -Gen. McArthur
Believe me, there‘s but very few you’ll find a good and gleamering accounts of General McArthur. Perhaps, most of these gleamering accounts would come from the Filipino people, the Japanese people, and of course his wife, none from Americans. His famous -but not equal- contemporaries like Admiral Chester Nimitz was named after an American Aircraft Carrier. Unfortunately, I haven’t heard any US Administration- not even his former clerk who became US President- giving McArthur a respect he deserve by rewarding the famed hero of World War II a rightful representation in the Army.
The whole war was a farce, phony false flag. The Tonkin Gulf incident never happened. One day USA will have to apologize and pay for the suffering.
Old soldiers never die. They just get crushed by a tank in Washington.
@@bfhoward1 The Bay of Tonkin incident didn't happen in WWII but in August 1964. I remember news of that clearly as I was then sixteen and about to enter my junior year of high school.

Mac ARTHUR allways to remember.
Thank you for saving the Philippines sir. All filipino loves you!
+Melvin Dean Pelarion I suggest you study history a bit more.
+Howard McKay all I know he came back to Philippines and save us against Japanesse invaders. And to think he got no obligations to our beloved country and not to mention the president of USA is against to his plan. But he still pursue. I think thats enough to thanks him for that... I know a bit of history what happened in korea to!. But I don't really care. All I care is, all older pinoy generation idolised And loved him... And I think u married to pinay sir? And u should thank him to. If the general didn't come back, maybe ur not gonna meet her!!!😀

In the Filipinas battle, he was the man for his brave men to inspire hope and trustworthiness.
The American General who loves the Filipino people. I remember what he said that; give me 200 Filipino soldiers and I will conquer the World. To us, he was gone but not forgotten.
Americans are peaceful but they don't hesitate to risk their lives if anyone or any country is threatened or deliberately harmed. Gen. Douglas Mc Arthur is not a traitor nor their government is doing something like the word racket because it values the lives of their soldiers too! The greatest gift more valuable than the tons of gold or other precious stones in this Earth is not only by liberating us Filipinos, but by spreading the word of GOD ALMIGHTY! JESUS CHRIST IS GREAT!(Peace be with HIM.)
+Sylvan Atup It was Robin Williams that had once said "Americans; we're friendly people, but piss us off and we'll bomb your cities." "The Japanese: "We pick a fight, we bomb Pearl Harbour, they nuke our town. They buy our stuff and build us up again." nice people." lol
+Mechknight73 true people should not mess with us or what we did to Iraq would pale in comparison to what we would do them
AMEN TO THAT!
nice video verry informative. Its good to look back and know more about my country's history.
This is my true hero in my heart
Yup this is definitely helping me on my history final. Dang he did a lot.
We cherishes the brilliant General Douglas McArthur. God bless your soul.thank you USA.
The main factor for liberating the Philippines from japanese.when gen.mcarthur,admiral nemitz,and pres.franklin Roosevelt together with some generals had meeting to admiral nemitz suggested to attack china leaving the Philippines and formusa gen McArthur disagree.he said that america had a moral responsibility to avenge the crushing defeat in 1942 against the japanese.pres.roosevelt agreed with McArthur.
Accdg to our pilipin history still Mac Arthur considered as one of our pilipin hero
my Grand Uncle a Ww2 army veteran survivor Death march join the Guerrillas intelligence. He said that I shall return was a Political Gimick. well, the Filipino guerilla intelligence did their good job for Gen. Douglas Mc Arthur very successful Landing from Lingayen to Leyte. Nice job done for the fighting Filipinos without the Credit.
+Blue Marshall Your Uncle should be praised for his courage and patriotism. Nevertheless, I believe that MacArthur really did love the people of the Philippines. He only left because President Roosevelt ordered him to and he insisted that the Philippines not be bypassed as the Navy wanted to do. He was not being a politician.
If you saying something you must think in deep thinking. A political gimmick what a stupid word. The japanese forces invaded pearl harbor first and second in a matter of hours the Phillipines . That time after the japanese invasion in Phillipines Dec 1941 Filipino guerilias are not yet formed and General MacArthur was unprepared and unexpected about the invasion. His I shall return words is come from his hearth and a words of a genius man not a political gimmick take note after guerilla formed and exist in beyond 1940s of war MacArthur supported all guerilias activities and supplies by submarine do you think if MacArthur don't care abandoned the Philippines the entire war the guerilias fighting effort and entilligence will be useless who will help listen to them.
Ive had a huge respect to him ever since i was a kid
Philippine's Hero!
True hero

9:42 Military buildup - “A spirit of intense determination.”
15:02 “On moral grounds, we had to return to support the Filipinos, our allies and friends.”
21:38 Japanese emperor retained, Western style democracy introduced. Enactment of a Constitution and universal suffrage. Monopolies were broken up, land reformed was instituted, which transformed tenants into owners. These rural capitalists became a strong bulwark against communism.
22:22 In Japan, the social reforms urged by McArthur proved one of the most successful experiments in history. An implacable enemy became a friend.
The GREATNESS of this General lives on, specially here @ Phl.. Muchos gracias General Douglas Mc Arthur. Salute 2 u from the bottom of our hearts, Sir. God bless u more, 4ever!
We need man like this now days
The Bataan defense was the most effective delaying action in WW2 - credit to general MacArthur, his valiant Fil-Am officers and men done in the absence of logistical resupply.
My idol great 5star general
Gen Douglas MacArthur was employed to defend the Philippines and yet when war broke out He left Manila undefended by withdrawing his troops to Bataan and declaring Manila an Open City..Why surrender to the enemy when there were plenty of manpower available ? Why did he not mobilized the troops to build defensive barriers? Why he give up Manila even before the enemy arrived. He was in Phil 3 or 4 years before the war broke out..giving him more than enough time for its defence.
Also after the attack on Pearl Habour he was notified by phone or telegram with 8 hours time difference why did he keep the airplanes in on the ground in one location .He was really caught flatfooted..😅😅😅😅😅😅
GEN DOUGLAS MCARTHUR IS A MAN WITH A WORD OF HONOR AND INTEGRITY
Any membervof the 1st. Division U.S. Marine that Dougout Doug hung out to dry at Frozen Chosin will tell you a very difficult acessment of the General's military abilities.
謝謝。紀錄片
i have heard so many about him especially to whom did mcarther defeat in ww2 that i have always been confused and one thing i don't prefer very much one sided advancement in video scenes
HUHUHUHU... I FOUND MY FATHER STANDING NEXT TO GENERAL DOUGLAS MACARTHUR.
which part?
macarthur made us japanese bow to him.
The day MacArthur leave his head quarter in Japan the Japanese stood both side of the road to the seaport to pay respect and goodbye, they stood there for many miles. The enemy general became much love and admire general by the Japanese because of what he did for Japan.
I find it telling that the first things he did while rebuilding Japan was to break up the monopolies and assure that each vote counted. Maybe we need someone like him for President? Today, we have many state where votes have been gerrymandered beyond belief in order for one party to have control and mere handfuls of corporations with power they should not have over the direction our Government goes on too many issues. I think it's time to apply a little MacArthur strategy here at home!
Thank You Douglas I Salute U!
Thank you for saving our country Philippines if you didn't come here when Japanese were executing us we Filipinos are not alive and free with peace right now, I shall thank the heroes and generals of the america that helped My country too

General MacArthur's Grandson was my principal
Operation Ichi-Go is an operation conducted by the Japanese Army on the Chinese mainland from April 17th to December 10th, 1944 during the Sino-Japanese War.
It was the last major offensive of the Japanese Army, which caused the National Revolutionary Army to be hit hard and affected during the Chinese Civil War.
However, on the other hand, the United States is also mediating the conclusion of the Double Tenth Agreement with Chiang Kai-shek in order to avoid a civil war.
According to a study by Barbara W. Tuchman, the results of this operation had a more significant impact on the subsequent war situation than the Japanese had imagined, and had a decisive impact on Japan's fate. According to it, Franklin Roosevelt has consistently strongly trusted and supported Chiang Kai-shek since the beginning of the war, and encouraged him in the war against Japan so that he would not drop out of the Allies in a single peace with Japan during the Cairo Conference. However, he said that he changed his mind because the front of Chiang Kai-shek collapsed due to this operation. In fact, Chiang Kai-shek has not been invited to important Allied conferences ("Yalta Conference" and "Potsdam Conference") since then.
According to the Stilwell document, Roosevelt said, "Can China win?" Stilwell said, "There is no choice but to eliminate Chiang Kai-shek." During the 1944 Hengyang battle, he could not sleep at night and twice. He says he thought about suicide. The American side also planned to assassinate Chiang Kai-shek, and three methods of "poisoning", "aircraft incident", and "pretending to be suicide" were considered, but it was canceled in 1944 due to changes in the international situation such as Burma. The successor that the United States envisioned is Sun Fountain.
As Roosevelt's Chief of Staff George Marshall and General Joseph Stilwell have long insisted, Chiang Kai-shek's army is actually a demoralized and corrupt organization that does not form an army. It became clear that he had no desire or ability to fight with the United States and other Allied forces.
As a result, President Roosevelt changed the scenario of the operation against Japan from the conventional bombing of Japan and other countries from the air bases of mainland China to the one that MacArthur and others claimed to occupy the islands of the Pacific Ocean one after another.
China was dismissed at the Yalta Conference, and the Allied nation's footsteps were disturbed, with angry Chiang Kai-shek presenting a peace plan to Japan against the will of the United States.
In the Japan-US negotiations, Japan's allegations were peace by the confluence of Wang Jingwei of the Nanjing government and Chiang Kai-shek of the Chongqing government, and a proposal for defense from communism jointly by Japan and China. The US allegation was the withdrawal of Japanese troops from China, admitting only the Chongqing government. The negotiations broke down and the United States stopped oil, resulting in a war between Japan and the United States.
The Japanese Operation Ichi-Go attack left the National Revolutionary Army with 750,000 casualties. This caused the Kuomintang to lose to the Communist Party in the civil war. China would not have been dominated by the dictatorship Communist Party if it had made peace with Japan and cooperated in protecting it from communism.
Thank u great general for your liberate the philippines, i cannot forget that forever thank u very much general mc arthur, i salute u sir,
Our great Liberator
The Greatest American General for the Philippines ❤️❤️❤️👌👌🙏🙏🙏✌️
I knew gen. Mc arthur ever since i was a child, for me he is the foreign national hero of the phillipines, he had return to save the Philippines i land, I SHAL RETURN he said.
L’un des meilleurs militaires américains jamais connus je l’admire ❤
Definitely had an interesting life. Read a biography about him, the one that comes to mind is American Caesar.
thank ou!!!
Sabra S.... You have confused Douglas Mac Arthur and his father, Arthur Mac Arthur Both were Generals, both won Medal of Honor, both were stationed in Philippines. Google General Arthur Mac Arthur for the real info.
thanks from South Korea
The most famous word of general Mc Arthur that written in Philippine history.
"I Shall Return"
These were men of steel!!!
My favorite Great General McArthur!
Although Truman's reasoning were sound, he lacked courage to face Communists
head on like Kennedy did. MacArthur was a Great General, and a human being too.
His overconfidence was normal giving the circumstances. After realizing his
mistake, he had was guts to fight back and to confront the PRC with nukes.
History tell us that MacArthur was right, and Truman was wrong. Had MacArthur
nuked the PRC, Korea would have been free. We would also be free from cheap
products that come undone right after purchase, and free from threats to our
global leadership by the crooked PRC.
The battle of leyte gulf......McArthur landing...liberation of the 🇵🇭
Douglas was just trying to climb up the rank like any soldiers. He was not trying to be a hero. He was just trying to survive just like any other people. Life is all about survival. Food, water and money.
Back then world War people were desperately eager to make money but the value of money was quite different.
the film is filtered by only high lights, but the real life is not that simple
At 4 years old, believe it or not I was"unaware" we children ranging from 4 to 10 were spying for the U.S. and the Filipino guerillas in the Philippines. The Japanese camp was only about 2 kilometers (1.5 miles) away, and we were obsessed by low flying Japanese planes over our Village. So we went there often and watch the activities in the camp. When we returned to the Village some of the elders would asked us how many "people" we saw; how many airplanes and trucks. The older kids were able to gave precisely the numbers. In my case since I was the smallest and "cute" would asked me "how about you "bulilit' (kiddo) what did you see?" All I can say was "daghan edro" (plenty of airplanes) and "daghan tawo" (so many people). The Japanese soldiers could have killed us right there or our parents if they only realized what damaged we have done. What we gave the guerillas may have help the Americans pulverized the camp as we watched it ringside from our farm.
May favorite genera history 🇵🇭

Lt. Commander Jones to MacArthur just prior to his embarkation to the Missouri in Tokyo Bay - “will you have a ferry craft, sir, or will you walk?”
If he's the commander of the southwest pacific, where else is he going to go? Guadalcanal has its own general. New Guinea got seized by Japan, too.
Is there any living members of his family? I sure would love to "meet" them.
Macarthur and Patton the best general of history of USA .

I hope historians could visit Corregidor, and take a close look at the American soldiers and a General who underwent great suffering and starvation during WWII, and go to Manila Hotel (a five star hotel) where a high ranking general stayed during those times. When one says, "I shall return" , it is an admission that one one leave his fellow Americans. I could never understand that, especially when I saw how Lt. Gen. Jonathan M. Wainwright was reduced to skin and bones, together with his American comrades.
I hope American soldiers visit Corregidor where Lt. Gen. Wainwright is remembered. So that they may know and remember that once upon a time there was an American soldier who knew how to live, survive, and endure suffering and pain. The pictures of him and his soldiers and WWII bombed structures were preserved in said area. And one will have an idea what happened there.
So between a general who suffered starvation and maltreatment, and a general who stayed at Manila Hotel (perhaps Americans should visit it too), I will honor the former more.
(No offense meant.)
His exemplary conduct during the "Great Depression" : President Herbert Hoover then ordered the army to clear the veterans' campsite. Army Chief of Staff General Douglas MacArthur commanded the infantry and cavalry supported by six tanks. The Bonus Army marchers with their wives and children were driven out, and their shelters and belongings burned.
Patton was among them too, along with other future World War II commanders.
Con người vĩ đại, tài ba và nhân hậu của loài người!!!
Best general in the world
Thank you so much for helping and giving Filiponos our democracy against japan ❤️❤️ we owed so much to you our general
Notice they skipped his role in getting rid of the Bonus Marchers, in DC.
Hoover called the army, Roosevelt sent his wife
Happy 4th of July America.
This was back in the days where the world was ruled by true men and heroes... The hell happened now?
agree.
COMMENDER. we here. Kirk
Give me 10.000 filipinos and i shall conquer the world....
Hope I have sunglasses like his.
He outclassed any allied commader ,yardsticks .coparisons are odious.
very Arrogant man, a good combat leader, but a "PRIMA DONNA" he thought very very very highly of hisself. yes he did a good job for America, but he was very prideful when dealing with U.S. Presidents. he also didn't think very well of Black soldiers and was very very willing to court marshall black soldiers. so for all of his good qualities he also has bad ones as well he's a man. so no man is perfect.
i am glad that he helped America and i am glad that he did a good job. i just don't like all of his qualities.
i'm against inequality in all of it's forms and i don't care who you are or what you've done! if anybody treats another human as a lower being for little to no reason then i'll personally beat their faces in! even if they're probably stronger than me i'll just keep coming back!

God bless the Philippines and people of the USA . Very soon after Pearl Harbour . The Philippines already had a formidable army , navy and air force . If MacArthur had immediately put them on war footing and alert . The strong force of navy ships , fighters and bombers based in the Philippines were not put in a state of readiness . The fighters were left lined up next to the runways . All fighting vehicles were not mobilised and armed . Thus when the Japanese attacked in late December . They swept through and caused devastation hundreds of times greater than Pearl Harbour .
Many good historians have recorded this neglect of the Pacific' s greatest air force and navy swept aside in the Philippines . Sorry to bust a myth . But one General presided over this arguably greatest blundering disaster of the war .
That was MacArthur .
Also at the end of the war the greatest mass murderer in history HIROHITO was spared by MacArthur because of M's delusional belief that it would start another war .
MacArthur was imcompetent .
Please read the reality folks . He was Japan's best General.
Sabra s has much correct information .
true hero, and those 100 thousand MOL Filipinos who died during 2WW
MacArthur said " I shall Return"...
...and so the Veterans of Bataan answered in return: "So what if you "did Return"....Lest we Forget , on the day of the Battle , You Ran Away!"
He left so much under the wraps with Australian troops leaving out the battles they won and giving them to American troops or calling them small mop ups also was an arrogant cunt
+Halabira Lapu-Lapu He did not "run away". That's an internet myth.He wished to remain with his Army. He was ordered by President Roosevelt to leave Corregidor and lead the defense of Australia. He left reluctantly and believed he would be given immediate command of a counter invasion. Thiey lied to him. The heroes of Bataan felt betrayed and they were right to feel that way but it was not MacArthur who abandoned them

Macarthur was a coward and a liar.
