Now that the Philippine government has shown terrorists worldwide that they can be bullied to do something, it is open season for us. Muslim extremists in southern Philippines and Jamaah Islamiyah of Asia have cause to rejoice. The future is bright for them. As long as there is someone to kidnap and behead, the Philippine government will do their bidding. Why don't we just concede and give them the reins of government to prevent any other threats? That way, nobody has to be kidnapped and threatened with death anymore.
Just when we thought the Philippine government could not do any more wrong, it manages to surprise us.
I am fiercely proud of who I am and being a Filipino in many, many ways eventhough the behavior of the Philippine government and politicians have brought shame to us many times. But today, my head hangs a little bit lower.
