Homebound Moro Terrorists and Co-terroristic Crimes

"REPENTANT" Philippine Moro Terrorists, who had long been deprived of the normal peaceful life, and had been cold-blooded criminals for many years, are up to ten times more likely to commit other related crimes than the general population of society's criminals. This is a collective testimony of beat respondents who had close encounters with these specific rebel group members in Mindanao.
About 60 percent of surrenderees and amnesty-placed rebels with "calloused" criminality emotional disorders were reported as having the tendency to commit acts of related crime, which are 6 to 10 times greater than the criminal tendencies of the general population of other criminals in the country.
"It is quite obvious that all the exploits of the Moro rebels are factors for the chain reaction to other forms of criminality. I was there for many years and I personally witnessed their way of life," said Antonio L. Santiago, a long-time delivery man of domestic merchandise to shoreline rebel territories in Zamboanga Peninsula.
"There is indeed sufficient evidence on the contribution of Moro rebels' psychological disorders to the act of other crimes along the various wartorn areas, a high-risk population of cold-blooded criminals who frequent other communities in the land," added Santiago.
This observation is highly unusual in that all of the current criminal personality disorders of Moro rebels were assessed by the resident witnesses' one-on-one encounter with practicing rebels and rebel returnees in a large crime-dependent domestic survival.
The resident witnesses from neighboring areas observed the behavioral tendencies of the rebels on a day-to-day basis. Results of the observation indicated that the big slice of percentage of those rebels had some criminal personality disorder, and majority of them had oftenly ventured into the other related crimes.
The types of extra-criminal acts originating among the Moro rebel communities were divided into three clusters: A (Pickpocketing, House theft, and Shoplifting), B (Abduction for rape, Abduction for ransom, Abduction for killing and Abduction for marriage), and C (Thrill-killing, Hate-killing, Killing by impulse, and Killing-for-heck-of-it).
PSYCHOPATHS AND SOCIOPATHS
Statistically speaking, subjects with the combination of all the three clusters, are at highest risk of psycopathic or sociopathic disorders, which are most likely to influence and determine the kind of next generation sibling upbringing.
Extra-criminal performances, within each of the clusters, are accordingly the result of the Prime Moro Rebel Crimes such as Killings and Ambushes, Kidnap-for-ransom, Extortion, Town and Institutional Siege, Town and Institutional Bombings, Town and Institutional Robbery, Hostage-taking, Hijacking, Seajacking and many other forms of terroristic piracies.
LINKING CRIME PERSONALITY DISORDER
In many past psychiatric research studies, various psychoanalists collectively described Linking Crime Personality Disorder as a pervasive or enduring pattern of destructive behavior characterized by: 1) An instability of normal interpersonal affections, 2) A propensity to experience negative emotions such as severe sadness and/or anger, 3) Poor self-image, with marked impulse beginning at early adulthood and presenting in a variety of contexts, and 4) An uncertainty of one's values and goals in a normal society.
Accordingly, terrorism-dependent individuals who have practiced their negative ways for a long period of time, become separated or divorced from their normal and peace-loving ways of life due to their cold-blooded terroristic acts of crime. Furthermore, they are significantly more often living in hopelessness and having a poor perspective in life.
This then leads to an even higher degree of aptness for criminality and subsequently to more hopelessness, depression, social isolation, and worstly, a never-ending influence to the continuous practice of terrorism.
The psychoanalists further added: "Unlike other individuals who have full aptness for normal and peaceful living, than having to do with rebellion and terrorism, these people only have the aptness for the latter. In other words, a normal and peaceful life serves as a highly incompatible 'foreign body' for these Moro sociopaths than it does for normal people."
"This cannot be considered brain damage," concluded Sigmund Freud, "but rather a misguided way to process information."
HIGH INTENT TO LIVE AND LET DIE
Along with their Ancesral Discontentment and impoverished socio-economic situation, a specific emergency event---such as a cumbersome struggle with the authorities and publics for instance---is enough to enhance psychopath behavior in caste degrees among them.
It is quite peculiar that a number of these subjects even get in touch with religious invocations before the extra-criminal performances.
Among individual Moro rebels with a history of one or more extra-criminal performances, analysis of the characteristics of the most serious attempt suggests that rebel piracy-dependent individuals had high intent to live and let die, indicating that acts of crime in this particular population must not be taken lightly by government authorities.
PREVENTION STRATEGIES NEEDED
I hope these findings shall provide insights for Terrorism Analysts on how to assess extra-criminality risk among these terrorists. Officials and social workers who have frequent contacts with these people in shoreline rebel territories should also be able to offer long-term extra-criminality prevention strategies for these subjects with the known risk factors.
I also hope that the public will realize that the aptness for extra-criminality is a psychiatric disease and not a habit, that these specific disorders in terroristic subjects occur very often, and that terrorists with comorbid conditions are at high risk for the performance of more crimes. (JV)
