Historical perspective
Spanish–American War
(1898)
The failure of Spain to engage in
active social reforms in Cuba as
demanded by the United States
government was the basic cause for
the Spanish–American War. American
attention was focused on the issue
after the mysterious explosion that
sank the American battleship Maine
on February 15, 1898 in Havana
Harbor. As public political pressure
from the Democratic Party and certain
industrialists built up for war, the U.S.
Congress forced the reluctant
Republican President William
McKinley to issue an ultimatum to
Spain on April 19, 1898. Spain found it
had no diplomatic support in Europe,
but nevertheless declared war; the
U.S. followed on April 25 with its own
declaration of war.[6][7]
Philippine declaration of
independence
…
... I am compelled by my
instructions to direct that
your armed forces evacuate
the entire city of Manila,
including its suburbs and
defences, and that I shall be
obliged to take action with
that end in view within a
very short space of time
should you decline to
comply with my
Government's demands; and
I hereby serve notice on you
that unless your troops are
withdrawn beyond the line
of the city's defences before
Thursday, the 15th instant, I
shall be obliged to resort to
forcible action, and that my
Government will hold you
responsible for any
unfortunate consequences
which may ensue.[35]

Philippine–American War
(1899–1902)
Tensions escalate …
As in General Otis's
proclamation he alluded to
some instructions edited by
His Excellency the President
of the United States,
referring to the
administration of the
matters in the Philippine
Islands, I in the name of
God, the root and fountain
of all justice, and that of all
the right which has been
visibly granted to me to
direct my dear brothers in
the difficult work of our
regeneration, protest most
solemnly against this
intrusion of the United
States Government on the
sovereignty of these islands.
Aguinaldo of course
promptly advanced the
claim that his troops had
been wantonly attacked.
The plain fact is that the
Insurgent patrol in question
deliberately drew the fire of
the American sentry, and
this was just as much an act
of war as was the firing of
the shot. Whether the patrol
was acting under proper
orders from higher
authority is not definitely
known.[81]
