Please feel free to circulate my analysis as you wish. I do not have any reason for me to be afraid of getting known as the author of this piece. To make this known the farthest it can and to the largest number of people possible, the better it is for the Philippines and the Filipinos.
This analysis becomes all the more necessary to be known because of the falsity and illogical premises relied on in placing Maguindanao province under the state of martial law. The manifestations displayed yesterday by Gloria & her minions show burning intention to pursue martial law are getting bolder. It now appears to be bordering on clear and present danger to democracy and the Filipino people.
Obama and Hillary must know this to warn Gloria not to proceed with the sinister plot.
Why will the Gloria cliche claim there is rebellion while stating at the same time in the premises of martial law proclamation that the territories being held by the rebel Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) shall be respected? To make this clear, let me quote the proclamation: "Sec. 1: There is hereby declared a state of martial law in the province of Maguindanao except for the identified areas of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front as referred to in the implementing operational guidelines of the GRP-MILF agreement on the General Cessation of Hostilities. "
Moreover, MILF has been there existing and campaigning actively for more than a decade now yet in not one period in the past has martial law been proclaimed. In other words, it is very clear in the proclamation that the Gloria Arroyo Government is not referring to the MILF as the reason of rebellion that necessitates martial law.
By deduction, it means that the Gloria administration is treating, no matter how illogical, the massacre of about 20 women, two lady lawyers and 32 journalists as an act of rebellion.
As such, they are treating the suspected perpetrators of the goriest-ever massacre as "rebels." True, Department of Justice Secretary Agnes Devanadera announced that the charges they were filing against the Ampatuans are "rebellion." This was confirmed when television reports showed interviews of Army officers stating that they were arresting the Ampatuans for rebellion.
Is this not out of syntax when the purpose of the brutal killings were not to topple the duly-constituted government?
Is this not revolting to conscience to treat them as rebels when it is very clear there has been no intention to deprive the government of the right to assert authority in any place in Maguindanao?
Is it not clear that the purpose of the massacre was only to scare out or eliminate possible opponents in the upcoming elections for governor of the province in May of 2010?
Is it not clear that the Ampatuans had a clear intention to run for the elective posts up for grabs in that elections and as such there is no intention to deprive the national government to exercise authority in Maguindanao?
Is it not clear that rebellion is an offense against the government only?
Is it not clear that the massacre as committed, assuming to have been committed by the Ampatuans, is an offense against the persons of the victims, that the state's interest in giving justice to massacre victims is only to keep its moral obligation to keep the peace and assuage the revolting conscience?
In sum, it is very clear that there is no rebellion.
And the fact that the Gloria minions are insisting that there is rebellion and in fact arrested the Ampatuans on rebellion charges means my analysis is jibing with the clear intention to place Maguindanao under martial law to achieve the purpose of foiling the holding of elections in this place.
The situation of danger against Democracy and the People is CLEAR AND PRESENT.
So please, Sir Paul, disseminate to the largest possible audience my analysis along with this email message of mine to you.
Patriotically yours,
Toto Causing
