Herrera Manila Standard Today August 20, 2008 “THEY were savages,” 16-year-old Legend Rivera said. “They were very young—about my age—but fearless. They looked like demons and seemed ready to kill Christians. I almost went crazy.” Rivera was recounting her ordeal in Kolambugan town, Lanao del Norte, when fighters of the separatist Moro Islamic Liberation Front laid siege to it and caused the death of 39 people. She told it between sobs by cellular phone in Ozamis City, where she had finally escaped after going through hell for 11 hours.

Kato not in areas targeted by military--Kabalu
‘Strikes on civilians could worsen violence’ By Joel Guinto INQUIRER.net First Posted 19:51:00 08/22/2008 MANILA, Philippines -- The unit commanded by Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) commander Ameril Umbra Kato is not in the Maguindanao areas being pounded by the military, a spokesman for the rebels said. MILF civil-military affairs Eid Kabalu claimed, in a phone interview, that the ground and air bombardments have been hitting civilian communities and MILF forces that were not involved in the occupation of several North Cotabato villages that were blamed on Kato and which triggered the current hostilities. Kabalu warned that continued military strikes on the Maguindanao areas could lead to a further escalation of violence in Central Mindanao, claiming he had received reports a pregnant woman and several children had been killed in the attacks.. The military has said civilians have been evacuated from the towns of Shariff Aguak, Mamasapano, and Datu Piang, to clear the way for the pursuit of Kato, commander of the MILF’s 105th Base Command. "Kato is not there," Kabalu said. He said the wanted MILF commander is in the vicinity of Kabuntalan and Libungan towns. "The air strikes are continuing but they haven't been hitting our camps," Kabalu added. Asked if the fighting could lead to a full-scale war in the south, Kabalu said: "There has been no statement from the MILF leadership. But if this continues, it could lead to that. The military is using all its might." "This is a very difficult situation," he added. Kabalu was evasive when asked if the MILF would reinforce Kato and Abdullah Macapaar alias Commander Bravo, who was blamed for the Lanao del Norte attacks last Monday. He only said there have been no formal requests to yield the two, despite several demands made through media by government officials, including President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo on Friday. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This poor fellow Eid Kabalu is really a pathetic liar. He is just exposing more of himself as an ineffective spokesman who doesn't deserve to be believed. Tan-awa lang pag atake sa iyang mga tawo nga daghang nangamatay ingon dayon siya nga "WA DYUD KO KABALU" nga moatake diay sila. Karon nga giatake na iyang mga tawo sa gobyerno. Dayun na sad siyag ingon "WA DYUD DIAYMO KABALU" asa akong mga tawo ako ra naKABALU. To our military men, never ever listen to this congenital liar. |
