Kaban ni D_BystandeR: HUNGAW ANG PAGUSOG NI P-NOY ALANG SA BBL???

This is nothing but an empty talk from a leader who is blinded with his obsession for "some unknown reasons" to resume his urgency to have the BBL approved or more body bags to come later if his wish is not followed. In the wordings of Sen. Miriam Defensor Santiago, she made it clear that forging a peace deal with MILF, even if there are still some other factions who also clamor to have the same "privilege" accorded to them, does not provide any certainty that what our country had achieved when FVR signed a "Peace Treaty" with Nur Misuari in 1996 will not be the same if it now signs BBL with MILF. MILF does not carry with itself the unified support of the other factions thereby endangering the possibility that it will meet the same fate with what we had with the MNLF. And besides, the recent incident in Mamasapano that cost us to offer in the alter of supreme sacrifice the lives of 44 SAF commandos would be a great insult to the intelligence of us, Filipinos, who seemingly have been taken for nothing by the administration of BS Aquino, who until now, has not offered his apology for his tragic responsibility and accountability in bungling the "chain of command" in the government which, according to FVR was clearly established when his Executive Order No. 226 was enacted in 1995. To repeat, FVR's  executive order #226 which is still in full force and effect because no succeeding president has revoked or nullified it, establishes the chain of command responsibility not only in the military but also in the PNP, as well as to all government officials and employees covered by the Civil Service Commission.

The fact that 26 of the 44 SAF commandos were shot in the head at close range, as  what our government investigators found out, it points to nothing else but to a grim reality that our troops were massacred. And only a misguided leader like BS Aquino could still accept it and still has the gall to urge congressional leaders to go on with the peace process to finally approve the BBL to have "peace" in Mindanao. The Mamasapano incident was a "God-given" eye-opener in order for us to open our eyes to the reality that what our government is doing is just like inviting us to accept a  "Trojan horse" offered to us by the MILF to be able to obtain a lasting peace in Mindanao but in reality it is not because the MILF is not designed to build its loyalty to our country but to Malaysia who has probably acquired some unmistakable ulterior motives to control that part of our country and if not for the Mamasapano incident we could have offered it to a foreign country in a silver platter. Thanks to everything that took place, although, it cost us so dearly to offer to the altar of ultimate sacrifice the lives of our 44 SAF cops to finally open our eyes to the reality that BBL is just a hoax and certainly not the answer to obtain peace in Mindanao.
