At least the media is naming the guilty parties, and not calling them “asians” or “youths” or “rebels” or “insurgents”
The Philippine government wants to give the Moro Islamic Liberation Front sovereignty for a homeland in the major southern island of Mindanao.
There was supposed to be a cease fire and peace.
This is the result.
I see their land for peace deal has worked as well as it has in Isreal.
If 80% of the Christian nation rose up and exterminated the muslims, Islam would never set foot there!
Problem is ... the Moro, who have had their brains altered by Islam, have a fundamental right to be pissed off at the government. It’s a battle that has raged for some time.
Couple that with the fact that our gubment trained them to fight the Rooskies alongside Bin Laden and you have a real life cluster “f”.
All Mohammad's so called battles were just that, merely sneaky and treacherous raids, not battles at all. So it goes with all his predecessors who incessantly fear they must mechanically bow 5 times a day toward a black stone in Mecca and perpetually war with their neighbors.
The Arab way of war is the raid: you hit, do some damage, grab something valuable, and run away to where the enemy cannot find you (into the desert for the Arab, into the mountains for the Afghans, into the jungle for the Moros)
You then keep doing this over and over, hitting while avoiding major battle, until you have worn your enemy down. At that point he either moves away and you take over his territory, or he submits to you, becomes a second-class citizen (dhimmi) who pays his Muslim masters "protection money" (jizya) so they don;t thump him any more
The American Indians used this way of warfare too
The only solution against the American Indians was for the US Cavalry to go after them relentlessly, track them down, deny them any sanctuary, until they were defeated utterly
The MILF are able to conduct insurgency by being able to hide among the Muslim populace. Finding them then turns into a job of looking for needles in a haystack -- until somebody decides to simply torch the whole haystack
The more we expose Islamists’ support for Obama the more he loses in the polls.
