[Grant]

Please. I was a USPC volunteer.

The title came as something of a shock because, as far as I am aware, Jilib, the Ogaden war and Canadian influence do not link.

Grant you still in the philippines ? Big battles happening the army vs rebels.

Yea that's what I thought too, isn't Jilib way down somewhere in the Shebelada dhexe or Jubbada dhexe. I don't believe there is any connection to the 1977 war.

Gamer the title is supposed to lure Grant James and Luis

I got back the end of January.

I swear the massacres and ambushes down south have some sort of political choreography. The chief rebels or whatever are regularly interviewed on TV, but the troops can't find them.

When I went to the Philippines in 1985 I was shown a university complex that had been shut down, ( under martial law , by Marcos), because it had been taken over by Muslims. Today you see hijabs all over the place on Luzon and many towns have mosques. There are seats in the Philippine government reserved for Muslims and very little conflict that I was able to see. The Philippines is still dominantly Roman Catholic, but nearly all religions are present and the country does seem multicultural. Not everything is between the Government and "rebels". Some of the violence in the south is between Muslim tribes. There are so many Badjaos north of Mindanao these days because they were kicked out by the Tausugs, who continue to oppress them.

The situation down there is actually quite complex: http://cpcabrisbane.org/Kasama/2005/V19 ... urante.htm

Islam is the oldest recorded
monotheistic religion in the
Philippines.Manila means Min Allah.The word Morro comes from the Spanish for Moors.Islam will eventualy prevail.

Grant i heard malaysians are joing the rebels and ransom was paid to the rebels. The filipino army should finish off the rebels since US are helping them time to bring law and order to the south islands.

S/A,

Read that article. The Muslims are divided into a number of antagonistic tribes and only constitute about 23% of Mindanao/Sulu and only about 5% of the country as a whole. They have an autonomous area and the central government mostly leaves them alone. As I understand it, support for Abu Sayef is concentrated in the Sulu Archipelago and the political ambitions of the Sultan of Jolo. I believe the Malayasian connection is through Sabah, which is claimed by both Malaysia and Jolo, but leased to the Netherlands by Jolo. It's complicated. See "Sabah" if you are courious. This link relates to Sulu:

Thug,

Manila comes from the Tagalog "May Nilad" which means that a flowering variety of mangrove grows there. It was a province of the Hindu Majapahit Empire before it was colonized by Sultan Bolkiah of Brunei about 1500 and eventually fragmented into rival city-states. The surrounding Tagalog people were not Muslim and Spain established full control by about 1570.
