[Manila] Moslem extremists have burnt down a Christian village in the vicinity of the city of Mang (Mindanao). According to current information there have been no dead. The entire population must in any case leave their homes and is homeless. Sources at the Philippine Army have laid the blame upon Ameril Umbra Kato, the earlier Chief of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF). He is building up a new army for the battle to promote the islamic State of Mindanao.

I believe the U. S. Army’s very first battlefield combat engagement with a Muslim force occurred in the Phillipines, ca. 1900. Other opinions, anyone?
We had a story about Indonesia yesterday too.
Barbary Pirates???
Sorry but every time I hear about the MILF I have to snicker.
Finally something not blamed on GWB!
MILF: LOL
Iraq, Afghanistan? bahhh, we should have taken the divisions we used there, along with the original strong coalition and Israel, and cut straight into the source of modern day Islam's strength, IRAN, the epicenter of Islamic terror, and cut their military to ribbons, not leaving so much as a jeep with sling shot mounted on it. Once Iran's military capability has been shattered to itty bitty scrap metal pieces the entire region would freeze in fear and do what they're told to do. That would be: ORDER a democracy in Iraq, and watch it unfold right before our eyes without a shot needing to be fired. Then Egypt, then Syria, then the Islamist strongholds of Lebanon. If any of them decided to resist then cut their military to ribbons as well. No, cut it to confetti. Make those bastards try to slaughter, rape and destroy innocent people with just their bare hands. With Israel in on this little 'project' it could have been over and done by now. Then allow Israel to expand its borders for a buffer zone against allah's devils.
Then send troops to places like the Philippines to help them bury their own islamist threat forever. As for islamist Africa? Let the West carve out a large Christian sector, perhaps in S. Africa and allow African Christians to live there in peace. Then arm them to the teeth till it can successfully and easily defend against allah's devils. And finally, let every Western nation who possesses cruise missiles easch send several of them to land squarely on the moon rock of Mecca. As for their oil, TAKE WHAT WE NEED AND LEAVE RUSSIA AND CHINA TO FIGHT EACH OTHER FOR WHAT'S LEFT.
Yep, USMC had it’s first battle with muzzies but it was in Tripoli in 1801.
They’ve been working on Mindanao for a long time.
They needs to just go in and take care of this problem once and for all.
My comment referred to the U. S. Army infantry, engaged in battle with a Muslim force in the Phillipines, not to the much more widely publicized engagement of the Marines with the Barbary pirates.
I wrote about the U. S. Army infantry battling Muslims in the Phillipines, not the much more widely known and celebrated scrap with the Barbary pirates a century earlier.
Sounds kind of important. What would possess you to excerpt a story like this?
Here.

Muslim Rebels Burn Down Christian Town
(Manila)Moslem extremists have burnt down a Christian village in the vicinity of the city of Mang (Mindanao). According to current information there have been no dead. The entire population must in any case leave their homes and is homeless. Sources at the Philippine Army have laid the blame upon Ameril Umbra Kato, the earlier Chief of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF). He is building up a new army for the battle to promote the Islamic State of Mindanao.
Yesterday Eid Kabalu, the speaker of the MILF, explained taht the Islamic group had nothing to do with the attack. “We were not involved in this act. The village was burned because of a conflict between Christians and Muslims, says Kabalu.
Today there has been another talk between the government of the Philippines and the MILF in the Malaysian capital of Kuala Lumpur. Experts believe that divisions between the MILF and the government have widened and endangered the dialog. It is feared this will mean further conflicts between the Islamic Rebels and the military.
