[MrClamsymen]

bkit nyu b pinapansin ang presyo ng mga binabala?? pasalamat kayo nailligtas ng mga sundalo ang maraming buhay ng ating mga kababayan

[leonquago]

Our country is in deep trouble and all that our senators can think of is a law that ban and criminalize eating dog meat.

[panyolito1929]

Kaya pala maraming mag nanakaw na general dahil sa malalaki ang transaction... bakit di nalng ang AFP ang gumawa ng sarili nilang nga bala at pra wala ng contractor mas mahal pag meron eh !!!!! at kaya naman yan ng mga AFP mag develope ng mga kagamitan na di na dadaan pa ng bid.

[janyawa]

putang ina america sila kasi ang nag supply sa mga rebelde....e search nyo makita nyo na may CIA agent ang nahuli ng media na kasbwat sa mga rebelde.....

[purehuman]

more like they would deny it. BUT ONE THING FOR SURE the U.S. Gov't fully support the MOA-AD initiated by this Muslim Rebels.

[bitagtheexplorer]

BALIKTAD DAPAT C B.GEN JORGE SEGOVIA UNG HULING ININTERVIEW NA ARMY ..UNG UNG ININTERVIEW AY LT.COLONEL PLNG YAN.. MALI KAU MGA MEDIA PALPAK KAU POTANG INA NYU!

[christian102804]

mas malki ang gastos kung hindi mapaptahimik ang mga kalaban ng gobyerno, media is just exaggerating the events and the cost of war,

[cutejapogi]

freedom and peace aint free...

[purehuman]

NOW... watch out CIA, U.S. Gov't & MILF are crafting new strategy to CREATE MORE CHAOS in MINDANAO to FORCE GRP to sign MOA-Ad...

[cutejapogi]

@purehuman correction lang.hinding hindi makikipag kontsabahan ang MILF sa US lalong lao na sa CIA.siguro nasabi mo lang to kasi CIA created the al qaeda during late 19's. ang bangsa moro pinag lalaban ang lupa nila.parang tayo noon nung nasa under p tayo ng spanish.ganun din ang pakiramdam ng mga bangsa moro.ang totoong gumagawa ng gulo sa pinas ay mga katulad niyong mas iniintindi ang pride kesa ang bansa. FYI america ang nag palaya sa pinas. so naiintindihan ko ang MILF pero ayaw ko sa kanila

[ber2ldo]

war is costly kaya tapusin na ang laban.. puru kasi ceasefire.. ubusin na mga pampagulo sa bansa natin.. patayin silang lahat... bwisit!

[paladinoftyr]

WTF dinidisplay nlng nila ang mga bulldog na tanks!!! SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!! mas matibay pa yan at masa malakas ang main gun niyan kaysa mga bulok na scorpion light tank na ginagamit ng AFP!!!!

[Shadowkiller013]

[joke2lang]

hay....kong nagastos sa gyera sa mindanao ay ibinayad nalang sa utang ng pilipinas sa world bank...sa tingin ko walang mangyayaring KAPAYAPAAN kong maraming pilipino ang nasasaktan at namamatay...hayayay...ano ba talaga ang sinimulan nito??

[SenkanYamatoMaru]

And this, gentlemen, is the reason why the war in Mindanao does not end. WAR = MONEY.

[purehuman]

IMAGINE.... moa-ad to giveWAY to THE DEMAND OF IGNORANT & DGOMATIC DRIVEN MUSLIM REBELS. what will happen to THE PEACE LOVING PEOPLE OF MINDANAO?! supported by U.S. STATE GOV'T at the same time with the HELP of MALAYSIAN less influential gov't EMPLOYEEs...

[Brixxist]

bakit ba pinipilit pa ng Governo ang mindanao na angkinin nila kahit ayw nman sa kanila ng taga mindanao, kaya tuloy walang kataposan ang gulo na2.. dapat ang mga marines at army sa mindanao pa alisin nalang sila lahat, kasi ginagawa lang sila na reason para maka kurakot ang mga opisyal ang sundalo,,, kawawa lang sila na ibuwis nila ang buhay nila dahil sa katarantaduhan ng opisyal nila.

[icanflyfaraway]

@Brixxist pag binigay ng gobyerno ang mindanao, malaking mawawala sa ekonomiya ng pinas at baka magsunuran na ung ibang probinsya

[junglelito]

[joke2lang]

[jplanta95]

[alvinbf]

its a war for profit..come-on kya hindi nila kyang tposin yn...money for the pocket of the few.....people dont go to AFP its waste of life, if u have skills O outside so u cant hepl more to your family....

[purehuman]

[icanflyfaraway]

sana alam na ng lahat ng Pilipino kung bakit hindi nakakaupgrade ang AFP

[misternotsoperfect]

so what if we spend money in exchange of the destruction of unwanted subersives!

[Flipsify]

War is draining the Philippine economy while the MILF are funded by OIC states, ransoms from kidnappings and diverted funds from the World Bank and the Philippine government for infrastructure projects.

[DonVicenta]

I agree!!! Better USA spend the money they spend in Iraq to support the Philippine Defence

[homersbmc]

War is a multi-billion dollar industry.

[TheMuslimJesus]

balato lang ng mga 'ayala corporation' yan sa mga generals for preserving their business interst in mindanao

mga ayala corporations and the likes are the ones who dont want peace

theier plunder on natural resources of mindanao will be stopped

ordinary citizens must support peace process in mindanao like MOA-AD

multi national corporations are the ones who dictated Gloria not to sign peace-or else she will fall

historic peace opportunity is wasted...

will anyone realize this?

[TheMuslimJesus]

"The money powers(OLIGARCHS) preys upon the nation in times of peace and conspire against it in times of adversity. It is more despotic than Monarchy (Royalty), more insolent than authocracy(Dictatorship), more selfish than bureaucracy(Democracy)."

Abraham Lincoln (ex-US president)

[b4spain]

the rules they made, do they demselves obey? dey kno loopholes to xploit. the law is for u n me small fishes. its like dey make a big fish bowl n says..just swim on that fish bowl! dont go to th sea! ull die! thats status quo-they want to preserve,so the 250family-oligarchs hu owns country can plunder w/out bother.

u says som things abwt force...is it oppresed ppl or the oligarchs? that rant describes dem best. if stand in way of profit-dey do that to u.

U AR MUSLIMS B4SPAIN- ull luv wat u hate

[drifterZ00]

You are ignorant, the god our anscestors call, we from the visayas is Bathala not Allah. Which means our ancestors were pagan not muslim. And if our ancestors were once, you cannot defy the free will of the people who were now fond of Christianity, who chose Christianity as their own religion. Shame on you for denying the very right of every individual of choosing his/her religion and his/her freedom. Your statement does not make sense at all!

[b4spain]

look at clues left by forefathers...

1- u remember putting hands of elders to ur forehead? malaysian,indonesians do that till now.

2- u have words same w/muslim malays like-salamat, all numbers in tagal dialect, malong etc.

3- ar u circumcized? xtianity dont circumsize-old spain even now they dont.

4- have u heard sultanate of manila? sulayman, matanda,lakan, urduja?

want read proof? google: antonio morga phil history annotation rizal

TRUE der ar pagans....but if u pass clue u ar A MUSLIM

[b4spain]

nobody is denying you ur right, these are just clues for your own reflection.

even in mindanao the moro did not force the lumads, in fact they ar allies against oldspain. when u read bangsamoro it includes lumads.

ther are pagans,even hindus b4spain but muslim moro respect them, did not force anybody even if they can call aid frm malaysia,brunei,indonesia. why? cuz they respect each other

moro of mindanao n sulu are natives who embrace Islam in 1200ce-accdg to the book i told u.

ur choice..

[b4spain]

FYI th ppl aggreive on that landgrab vdo went to manila w his ppl-talk to the presdent-got a promis frm presdent-got a ruling in court-but wen they made that vdo-the ppl ar still waiting. thats th due-process u call.

civilized? B4SPAIN der is a happy civilized ppl on whole island-dont believe lies of europeans

dey want to show that they teach us sumthin of laws n ethics-we surpassed them.

we showed them kindness,hospitality-they ar dying of starvationand thrist wen they crossed the pacific.

[b4spain]

thats why military and 250 Oligarch who owns the country dont want to have PEACE. Oligarch who own vast tracts tru LAND GRABBING give gifts,recommend promotions to military. small settlers dont be scared of muslims, they will give you enough land for your family, like old days, enemy is the OLIGARCH who scare you to fight muslims to maintain their blood sucking on the majority. they are the ones who resist MOA-AD in court. they will be exposed as BIG TIME LAND GRABBERS.

[drifterZ00]

well... you say they are big time land grabbers. but did you even bring that fight to the court and discuss on legal matters? no, you were given the right but you only choose to fight. you may brand us christians as land grabbers but who were the murderers? was it you muslims who started all the killings in the first place? yeah, we believe in you!

[b4spain]

u admit u are LANDGRABBER

bring to court? u know court is too slow,corrupt, expensive. poor ppl will just buy food. it was given by ancestors, court or no court.

LANDGRABBERS already got most of luzon n bisayas but u abuse our hospitality like spain

we dont go to steal ur land, wer is ur origin place?

if i come to you w/ a land title that i own ur ancestral land then tell me that army is coming to enforce law, will u smile at me?

der is vdo here abwt landgrab-san miguel,wat happen to ppl?

[drifterZ00]

then you don't know how to deal things with legal terms. which means you, are nothing more than a barbarian!

you don't know laws, you don't know due process... get yourself an education, probably more will join into your cause.

a brave ignorant fool like you is nothing in front of a civilized world. if you want to be acknowledged act civilized. you MILF, MNLF or whatever you are were not recognized because you were never acting civilized in the first place.

[drifterZ00]

your cause is questionable, so as your actions, thus trust should not be given to you.

you use force for unjustified actions, you use force to instill terror instead of your so called cause. thus, proves that you are nothing but outlaws, nothing but troublemakers.

you fight for no cause at all... using your so-called ancestoral domains as an excuse for you to kill people and use your arms to indiscriminately kill anyone who is against your beliefs.

[b4spain]

read my answer up there....latest post.

[games4u2ube]

sana ay hindi matatamaan ang mga damo, mga hayop, niyogan, palayan at mga fishponds or the civilians. doon lang sana ang tama ng mga bala sa mga real targets nila.

[killdadevil2]

gamitin natin sa guera ang pera kesa mapapunta lang sa bulsa ng iba ,,I,,

[C0D3DN1CK]

sana ang pinaglalaban na lang mga mga moro ay ang mabawi ang sabah sa malaysia.. yun naman kasi ang dapat diba? doon nagmula ang mga filipinong muslim..

[islawpusong]

They won't give up mindanao they sell it to foriegners to pay their debts. Poor people there, will suffer the consequences.Like spaniard did,muslim rebel will suffer d long stupid fighting coz their target is civilians and destruction of peoples property.Disrespecting rights of individual cultures and beliefs,terorising da community,Cooperate to outsider terrorist des story is endless and boring...booring..old story stuff shit.. hated..shameful pepol..

[mocny01]

Filipinos are spaniars,,,real filipinos are curly hairs with black skin like lapu lapu,,,we call them negritos today

[islawpusong]

stupid..Do you have proof or picture of Lapu-pula you donkey i think u like negritos pussey.Filiponos we call them decoloures n spanish like chinnes shit food Mixed up like USA.Blue,brown,white,yeloow,bl­ack,coffe and milk,sweet and soure,salads,like paella wow yumm.

[mocny01]

islawpusong,,u forgot that with king of Spain called Phillip arrived Filipino_Spanish s to Lapulesia ...your real place is in Spain, Malezja, China ,USA, Japan..u came from those countries..anyway 10 years later ill be no more ,,luck of investors,,,countey can not function anymore,,probably Mindanao will take Malesia, rest of land to Indonesia...if you do not smart up..

[mocny01]

soon government will give up Mindanao,,too much cost,,no money,,luck of investors,,,Filipinos not smart to create place to Foreigners,to let them live there and build businesses..They can not live in hotels...forever..for that reason most go to more friendly countries such as Costa Rica or Equador

[tasvi]

We don't need to create something for a foreign investors.They do need our skills and resources.Mindanao is a big place,the conflict area is not even a 1/4 of mindanao.

[mocny01]

tasvi ...you dont need but FILIPINOS NEED ..

[islawpusong]

What d fuck is that!! bilyons of cost of war using old stuff.Cannon WW2,MOrtar WW2,Plane WW1,shitt..spent bilyons 4 d war of stupid (both gov't soldier and muslin rebel.)using old toys. A lot people starving, killed 4 that shit stuff, pointing enemy and then hit d innocent civilians. To all dickheadrebels and dickheadsoldier time to ask ur dick, if those things right or wrong.Thensuck ur dick faggots and leck it b'coz ur idiot.Bilyons s good enough to help d poor community.

[hingigo]

baka sa susunod wala ng budget angf mi at sundalo natin

baka lata nlng ibala sa mga canyon taps rifle mongo un mas maganda walang mamatay o kaya sapakan nlng

[Ericthefilo]

Yeah keep counting the price of rounds, the enemy don't and you won't give a shit about how much it costs when the enemy starts blowing bombs up in more marketplaces!

Life is hard and im sorry for those who suffer, but would you rather get blown up by the enemy?

[honeymaydew]

Saan kaya kumukuha ng pera ang MILF?

Ang Phil. Army, ay dapat maging 180,000 men dahil ang Malaysia at Thailand na mas maliit ang population kaysa sa Phil. ay may 150,000 army sila. Kapag umunlad ang Phil ay mas marami ang magiging sundalo at magiging high-tech ang equipment. Sa theory, attacking forces will have 3 casualties for evey one defender. If there is 20,000 MILF, the army in Mindanao should be 60,000.

[tomtos2000]

dapat ang cebu ang maging capital ng pinas para SOAR or FERFRANZ rifles ang gagamitin ng AFP,PNP at CAFGU...

[Parangsabil]

Kayo ang kalaban ng Bangsamoro! ubusin nyo na yan pera nyo wla kyong mapapala from generation to generation filipinos will face by our resistance! my ginstos na b kyo para sa justice ng moro na mina sacre na ilaga at mga sundalo??
