500 miles from Manila. I know I'm being picky ... but that's like describing Raleigh North Carolina as 500 miles from Richmond, Virginia.
Zamboanga is on the southwestern most tip of Mindinao ... a really ... really ... really fer piece from Manila... and on a different island altogether.
It's largely muslem and a playground for Abu Sayeff and MILF. Kidnappings are commonplace and most of the folks that don't want to be kidnapped stay away.
Prayers for the priest ..... but he knew this was going to be a difficult assignment.

People I love are in Philippines. Please pray for my niece who joined the Peace Corps [sigh] and is in Philippines, Fr. Pfeiffer, this poor priest and all the others. This scares me.

Whether it is the Moro Islamic Liberation Front, or not, remains to be seen.
This is a practice, in that area, that is not restricted to the MILF.
Especially in Mindanoa, this is not restricted to any large organized group.
While I plan on retiring to the Philippines, my hope is that by the time I move there, the major portion of the strife will be done.
I will, however, have a large portion of my neighbors watching my back.
