These Muslims keep doing what they are doing because the Phillipines are running a democratic government who is trying to stick to the rule of law. If the people get fed up they will vote in a strongman like a Marcos. God help the Phillipino Muslims then.

The rebels, who have signed a cease-fire with the government, have been fighting for Muslim self-rule in the southern Philippines for nearly three decades.

The Moros have been doing the same thing in the Philippines since at least Teddy Roosevelt's time.

A murderous Christmas Eve bomb attack. How's that for religious tolerance?

Ever notice that it's not Hindus, Buddhists, Sieks, Bahais, Wiccans, New Agers, Jews, or Christians who do such things?

Seems the lesson of never to appease the enemies of free societies hasn't yet been learned by some.

Never offer an olive branch to islamist. They're barbarians and intent on taking over the world.

Haven't heard much recently about the joint US/Philippine war against the Islamic extremist group Abu Sayyaf...at least since the hostage rescue and the news that they killed Sabaya, one of their top commanders back in June.

What's going on over there?

Sitting here listening to the Mormon Tabernacal Choir, sipping my coffee and then reading this. What a contrast.

Yep, Islam is a religion of piece. A piece of this country, a piece of that country. Living in peace in a secular country is an alien concept to them (except Turkey).
