Within weeks of his inauguration as president of the Philippines in June 2016, Rodrigo R. Duterte became the most internationally known Filipino leader since Ferdinand Marcos, the country’s infamous dictator, and Corazon Aquino, the iconic housewife-turned-president who championed the restoration of democracy in 1986. A great deal of media attention has been paid to Duterte’s murderous war on drugs as well as to his often crass and controversial statements.

The theory of George F. Kennan in his "long telegram" provided the basis for containment policy.
George F. Kennan was an American diplomat in Moscow after World War II. In 1946, he sent what became known as "the long telegram" of his advice about what the USA needed to do about the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR). It really was a LONG telegram at 8,000 words. (Think of how many Twitter messages that would be today!)
In those 1940s, after World War II, everyone feared an ultimate confrontation between the USA and the USSR -- that the Cold War would someday explode into a massive heated conflict between the superpowers. Kennan, in Moscow, had much foresight to see the internal problems the USSR had. He advised not pushing the conflict too much, but instead just try to "contain" the Soviet Union and wait for their system to collapse under the weight of its own problems. Kennan was right. It took almost 50 years, but eventually the communist system in the USSR fell apart. [The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics came to an end in 1991.]
Dry farming occurs is areas where there is little rainfall. Mesopotamians depended on the annual flooding of the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers. This is similar to the Egyptians depending on the Nile to flood. The annual flooding was more predictable than expecting rainfall. The problem with this style of farming is that rivers move and dry up. Should a great drought occur then even the flooding won't be enough to keep crops growing.
