"Thousands of civilians fled fighting in the Philippines on Wednesday as troops tried to fend off Islamist militants who took over large parts of a city, capturing Christians, seizing and torching buildings and setting free scores of prisoners.

Islamic State claimed responsibility for the rampage via its Amaq news agency, and President Rodrigo Duterte defended his decision to declare martial law on Mindanao, the Muslim-majority island where Marawi City is located, to prevent the spread of extremism in the impoverished region.
***
[President Duterte] said Islamic State must be repelled from the Christian-majority Philippines and he would use all means possible to crush the Maute group and the allied Abu Sayyaf, whatever the consequences.

"Anyone now holding a gun, confronting government with violence, my orders are spare no one, let us solve the problems of Mindanao once and for all," said Duterte, who is from the island, after cutting short a visit to Russia and returning to Manila.

"I might declare martial law throughout the country to protect the people," said the President, at a news conference in Manila, Wednesday.

"I had to declare martial law in the Mindanao group of islands," said Duterte, who cut short a visit to Russia to come home to deal with the violence. "It is our constitutional duty to enforce the law and provide security."

The current martial law order -- which covers both the city of Marawi and the wider island of Mindanao, of which Marawi is a part -- came after deadly clashes broke out between Filipino government troops and Islamist militants Tuesday."

The Philippine army...

has the same hopelessly misguided strategy as the American military: trying to distinguish between "radicalized" Muslims (who have started doing what Islam commands) and "moderate Muslims" (who advocate Islam but haven't yet started doing what it says). No amount of skill or resources could make that possible. Just as America fails in Afghanistan, Iraq, and elsewhere, the Philippinos fail in the Philippines. The reason is because they lack the will to denounce Islam itself: ban the mosques, publish blasphemous cartoons, etc.

I bet the Saudis are quite happy with the results of their madrassas in the Phillipines:

A US diplomatic cable leaked by Wikileaks dated 2005 would state:

Philippine officials noted their continuing concern about Saudi-origin terrorist financing coming into the Philippines under the cover of donations to mosques, orphanages, and madrassahs. Although three Saudi nationals suspected of being couriers had been detained on separate occasions, Saudi Ambassador Wali had intervened in each case to secure their release.

America's support for Saudi Arabia is largely responsible for what is happening in the Philippines.

Good thing Trump is taking them to task. We wouldn't want the kind of leader that would be kissing Saudi royalty while accepting gifts and large amounts of money, all the while pretending to be dealing with Islamic terrorism by only addressing other, far less consequential, countries in the Middle East

Why they are pissed off is irrelevant.

More of your pretzel logic.
Your value system is trumped by the pissed off ,killing people.
Did your value system do anything to stop the shooting of Scalise?
People can thump their bibles & /or their ideology.
How did that work on 9/11?
I have no problem with exterminating killers.
It's the stupids that think "I'm right." and can't stop the pissed off from taking action.
If these assholes are so smart why aren't they capable of stopping terrorism & killings in general?
Because they have nothing but ideological talk. "We ought to do this."We ought to do that." BULLSHIT.

Because we give terrorists human rights, which they don't deserve. It makes it impossible to wipe out terrorism.
If I was a dictator, terrorism would be long gone, because terrorists and their fucking supporters would all be dead.

Right. Hillary, the only practical alternative to Trump in the last election, has no history of carousing with Saudi Arabia and Qatar and accepting gifts from them and for her Foundation.

Are you saying that Hillary made Trump do it, or are you just pointing out that Trump is very similar to Hillary?

Yours is a false premise, because Bernie was the only practical alternative in the 2016 election cycle. Which is why the media went all in on defeating him, even if it meant fucking the entire country straight to hell with Trump.

Hillary won the nomination and was the only candidate that could have beat Trump. Indeed, the Media had her in the lead and aggressively predicted her inevitable victory.

Bernie dropped out and encouraged his supporters to vote Hillaryin the Summer, months ahead of the General Election..

The DNC rigged the election to make sure Bernie lost. TWO (2) DNC Chairpersons resigned over being caught rigging the Election for Hillary, and the DNC's defense to lawsuits from Bernie Donors is that "Impartiality" in their bylaws is a contractually unenforceable clause.

Wikipedia page:

According to the 2015 census, it has a population of 201,785.

On May 23, 2017, a pro-Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant group called the Maute group attacked the city. The battle is ongoing as of May 25. CNN Philippines reports that the militants have about 500 men. Philippine President Duterte has declared Martial Law on the island of Mindanao, where the fighting is taking place

If I were in charge, I would have all those 500 dead in a day or two at the most, with their dead bodies decapitated or nailed to crosses on all the roads coming into and out of town.

The armed forces of a country cannot defeat 500 militants? Fucking losers.

Walter Mitty rides again in the chicken hawk brigade. So your plan is to level the city I guess. A medium level nuke would do it. "Caedite eos. Novit enim Dominus qui sunt eius."

Is the Philippines up to the task of handling the latest wave of Islamist terrorism?


They are not. I don't think any country really is up to that task. How do you fight people who are only too eager to die? To fight them you would need to abuse their human rights, and the privacy of all the citizens. And the moment you do, the left will come down on you hard. Even most countries will oppose anything you do.

As long as you are coming down on foreigners, this shouldn't be an issue.

In other news, millions flee Syria after smug self-aggrandizing Christians go on a rampage and destroy entire cities to hunt down mere 100s of ISIS militants. The Christian soldiers were all weaklings that could barely lift a radio to call in an airstrike whenever they spotted an ISIS militant.

“The pro-IS groups are trying to stage another Marawi-style attack in other cities. They have lots of money to fund more attacks as they looted billions of pesos from Marawi during the siege,” a senior security source told Channel NewsAsia.


Dear Philippines,
Please hunt down and slaughter every ISIS supporter you can find. Do not respect their human rights, they don't deserve any. We will look the other way.

Anyone remember when Duterte was going to "crush" the militants ? Well guess what - much like I told you so they are not gone, ISIS is not gone and SE Asia is the next region to enjoy the fun. P.S. Keep your news eyes on Indonesia...

Sooooo - Duterte is going to crush them again - probably not the strongman you want to emulate - just sayin.....perhaps using something other than his mouth might work but I see this spreading northward in the Philippines and branching out to join up with the other groups in nearby countries.

Military says at least 18 killed and 83 wounded at twin Catholic church bombings on Sunday in southern Jolo; the Islamic State-aligned Abu Sayyaf is the chief suspect

And in Indonesia...

Democracy and terrorism a wicked mix in Indonesia

Jailed terror leader Abu Bakar Ba'asyir is held in austere and closely watched prison conditions, officials tell Asia Times, but the aging cleric still has political pull beyond his cell (they were going to release him but reconsidered)

Will someone kindly inform Potus ISIS and similar have not been defeated.

In order for a Caliphate to exist, it must control territory. ISIS no longer controls any meaningful territory and thus by definition no longer exists. Now some small numbers of delusional extremists may call themselves ISIS, but they are meaningless in the larger order of things.

Watch and learn in Southeast Asia - they will be back as a force to deal with in the not too distant future in the Middle East.

Patience grasshopper, patience

While Islamic State has taken responsibility for Sunday's lethal twin blasts, the obscure Adjang-Adjang Group stands accused of actually carrying out the attacks

No one has ever called themselves "ISIS". That term is a confection by western MSM.

The Islamic State was abbreviated "ISIL" (Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant) by the U.S. military and the Obama administration. MSM and Donald Trump called them "ISIS". In reality, Isis was an ancient Egyptian goddess, and is the given name of many living females and some corporations.

Muslims call ISIL "daesh" (bigot).

Islamic groups can change names and flags as easily as people change clothing: Al Nusra, Al Qaeda, Islamic State, whatever. As per Islam, they strike terror into the enemies of Allah (Koran chapter 8) and kill disbelievers (Koran chapter 9, among others). Islamic State caliph Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was a Muslim born to a Muslim family in a Muslim community in a Muslim country; he had a PhD in Islamic studies, and Islamic State terrorists made a point of justifying everything they did on the basis of scriptures that 90% of Muslims hold sacred. They were not "extremists" in terms of their beliefs. They simply put into action, immediately, what most Muslims believe should happen eventually.

It's like the difference between dogs and wolves. Wolves eat their kill immediately. Dogs are domesticated, bred for less adrenaline, so they can wait, but they can also go feral.

ISIL and KSA have the same agenda, but KSA works more patiently, using Petrodollar corruption to hijack NATO from the inside.
