I don't understand why the Philippinos living there are so against our being more involved, but God help us and them if this is a reason for the Burnhams to die a slow death.

I work with many Philippinos - some are very new here, and they all would support a huge rescue attempt by our troops.

The corrupt media is presenting a false picture, as they do here in the United States.

The majority of people would welcome any effort to rid their country of these evil terrorists.

I don't understand why Filipinos living there is so against us being involve The reason for this is it is in the Philippine constitution which does not allow foreign goverment to conduct war against any filipino citizen(yes, some of these moslem terrorists are filipino citizens). I think I can understand this. Think, if an American islamist would kidnap a British citizen, and England sends a force here to go after the US terrorist, do you think the US Goverment will allow it?
