A Call To Respect Philippine Right To Protect

Jade Verde
THE GOVERNMENT of the Republic of the Philippines and law-enforcing authorities, a joint set of disciplinary implementers, was intended to focus concern on terrorism-related civilian tragedies that we believe has not been given the full attention it deserves. This is due to the fact that media and "human rights" institutions in the country, prefer to defend downed rebels, and had been blocking the authorities' moves all the way.

Coming from different grateful citizens all over the country, a collective statement should be issued in appreciation for the practice of the rightful checkpoint dispositions every day of the year---and certain relevant pronouncements of any police or military spokesperson about the Antagonistic Left-wing Media.

The collective statement should also be prompted by strategical preventive measures like: 1) food blockades for mountain terrorists, 2) instant arrests of obviously-subversive individuals, 3) orchestrated disappearances of incorrigible opposition individuals.

Anti-government and communist-oriented mediamen, should be constantly prohibited from going to the areas in battle to prevent them from creating additional havoc between government troops and rebel forces.

With these preventive measures, concerned authorities will be able to appreciate more fully, and respond appropriately to the complex problem of terroristic internal displacement in the critical areas.

MEDIA PERVERTS SHOULD BITE THE DUST

Leftist and rebellious media will always try hard to bring to the fore what they want to happen in the embattled areas and evacuation centers, but should always be blatantly controlled.

The nonsense media will find the answers even before reaching the critical areas.

That is, as they proceed to the sites, army soldiers will stop them, and tie them with their faces on the dusty ground.

One can unmistakably anticipate in mind that the military group on guard will bluntly ask them if they are wards of the CPP-NPA and/or the Moro insurgency groups.

All the soldiers there must inform them that they are being stopped and held because of their tendency for subversive acts of crime.

There is actually no need for the soldiers to inform them of the usual practice of "releasing" them along the nearby gloomy hills, following the "clearance" from the Brigade Commander. Of course these nonsense mediamen richly deserve this particular aftermath.

When contacted within the first five minutes of what will turn out to be a long-time standoff, the commanding general should announce that he ordered the journalists to stop because of ongoing clearing operation, to ensure the deviation tactics against the radical acts of crime.

As days go by, improvised explosive devises (IEDs) will no longer blow up in civilian areas, and innocent civilians will not get killed or injured. This is the result of preventing the animalistic mediamen from entering the areas.


The checkpoint personnel need not worry about performing more clearing operations, for it is only the subversive mediamen who are to be stopped at the checkpoints.

Because of the sudden atrocities of IEDs along the way, the culprit media should be strictly prevented from going further.

Law Enforcers should take the wise initiative of not informing the stupid mediamen before the leave their respective communist camps, since they have the tendency to closely monitor the military planners to successfully pursue with their acts of rebellion.

If any, it is also rightful to commend the truthful and credible pronouncements made by the military spokespersons, claiming that the said journalists are constantly bribed by elements of communist-oriented groups and coup plotters.

After all, the mediamen's given reason and purpose to penetrate the critical areas clearly shows who their leftist mentors are.

Efforts to discredit the military groups' program of responsibility by attempting to discredit the organizing groups will not be viewed kindly by the public, especially since the case of the bomb explosions is a matter of national and international interest.

We assert that trying to block the magnitude of the government's security measures by stifling the guarding and shielding process with the issue of "free flow of information and the people's right to know" can only worsen the current problem.

We agree with, and appreciate the statements of both the government and MILF peace panels during separate interactions, that the peace process should be accompanied by non-interference of rebellious mediamen.

We also believe that the achievement of a just and lasting negotiated resolution to the generations- old conflict besetting the Bangsamoro is possible only when all government authorities are granted adequate access to performance of peace preservation measures.

This is why we are saddened that there remain elements of information agencies and institutions who are trying to block access to peace-producing works in the terrorist-affected areas, and the roots of the age-old tribal and religious misconception that continues to cause so much suffering---as well as vilify those who seek to preserve the safety of truth surrounding the situation and cause more atrocities to the Filipino people.

This much, we have learned from our experience as a people who lived through and eventually overcame so many years of radical media dispositions: YOU CAN NEITHER BE REBELLIOUS FOREVER, NOR ALLOW YOUR ACTS OF REBELLION TO SUCCEED. SHAME ON YOU!

ANY MORE ATTEMPT TO PREVENT OR CONTROL THE PEACE PRESERVATION PROCESS VITAL TO THE FILIPINO PEOPLE´S FREEDOM FROM TERRORISTIC CONFLICTS, WILL DEFINITELY NOT SERVE THE CAUSE OF PEACE.
