No one knows why batasan was bombed
with the exception of the PNP, or perhaps the military saying that it was a
deliberate exercise to kill Rep. Wahab Akbar.
Wahab is a real Abu Sayyaf member,
albeit ranking officer, but who did not show his true colors to everyone.
Remember Commander Robot? He wasn't really a real kumander in the true sense.
He was probably fronting for Wahab; Robot or Ghalib Andang, was a lowly driver
of Wahab. He was an errand boy. When he strutted like a general of the Abu
Sayyaf, it was because he had the confidence of someone in the organization
that was really powerful and had the nerve. Robot himself was spineless. God
rest his soul, but he was merely meant to be a simple pawn. Whoever made
Robot's name very popular and whoever painted him to be an important personage
in the terrorist Abu Sarap, was lying to the teeth.
So now if Wahab was Abu Sayyaf, then he has sins and debts to pay to certain
people he owed. Some of these, in the literal sense, were debts in blood.
Aside from that, he had the political enemies in his province to deal with. One
of the clans with whom he was mortally in conflict with was the clan of Mujib
Hataman. Mujib's brother, Benji is the most ferocious opponent of Wahab. Benji
would go through lengths just to get Wahab's place in Basilan politics. He
cannot.
Even as he is the son-in-law of grand old man of Mindanao politics, Simeon
Datumanong, Benji just cannot defeat Wahab. Imagine how frustrating that is!
Aside from Benji an all the people to whom he owed blood debts to, there may
have been others that would want Wahab dead.
But a bomb in Batasan would not have been the means with which those to whom
Wahab owed debts to, even in blood, would have killed him.
There is therefore something sinister in the way Batasan was bombed. If as they
claim, Marines within or out of active service that had gripes against Wahab
for the murder and decapitation of their comrades are the perpetrators, again a
bomb would not be the proper means of destroying and finally eliminating Wahab.
There are other means. A stab of a knife, a gunshot, any other way of
exterminating the man, except a bomb.
The public is the ultimate target of the bombing of Batasan. We are being
terrorized. The perpetratrors wish to accomplish the objective of
desentisization. So far, no one wishes to admit that the Glorietta affair is a
similar event. Whether it was meant to be the forerunner of the Batasan
bombing, we will never know now, would we?
The final answer will be revealed when the last hurrah of the enemies of Madame
Gloria Arroyo will be made. Specially if the enemies of Arroyo will succeed,
someone or some group will eventually make claim to the fact that they would
not have achieved victory if they had not bombed Glorietta and killed a number
of innocent people, or had they not destroyed Batasan and killed several there
with a powerful bomb.
I chanced upon this website,
www.pcaph.org. They have this statement called:
URGENT CALL FOR CHANGE
The time for change is
now. The recent electoral exercise has once again shown that the
old system is in shambles. Democracy via the electoral process-Philippine
style no longer works. Prior to the May elections we stated that
Elections 2007 is not the answer (log in to: pcaph.org). Many
wanted to give this latest election another chance. But events before,
during and after the elections have shown that indeed elections in the
Philippines is no longer the answer to our problems, especially to hunger and
poverty.
Even if the GO senatorial
candidates all win, they have no program to address our serious concerns.
All they want is to win. A mere "change of court". So
they too can be in power. And partake of the spoils that 'come with electoral
victory - a chance to continue the plunder of our natural and national
resources. But they have no concrete plans as to how to respond to the
massive hunger and poverty, to the thousands leaving for foreign shores, to the
national breakdown of morality and Christian values, to the hopelessness and
despair creeping around the nation.
The same can be said for the TU
administration bets. Their way of addressing the national human disaster
that we have become is to stay in power, even beyond 2010, through a
resurrected "Con Ass" once they gain the majority in both Houses of
Congress assured through the use of state machineries and facilities resulting
in blatant and syndicated cheating, fraud, bribery and killings in this last
election. Then they too can go on with the rape and plunder of our
national resources and treasures while our country and our people are
increasingly sucked in a deadly whirlpool of hunger and poverty caused by the
crimes and treason of our national leaders.
Thus the time for change is now.
But it must be a change for the right reason. Our forefathers have
admonished us that "the people have a right to revolt when their leaders
no longer serve the welfare of such people". Serving the welfare of
our people means liberating them from hunger and poverty through the repudiation
of our national debt and setting aside our WTO policies that have wrought havoc
on our industries and our economy. It further means stopp ing the
emerging threat from new foreign masters subtly encroaching on the very
ownership and possession of our lands but the use of which we may forever lose
due to the insatiable greed of our leaders who are currently selling out our
patrimony.
This is the kind of radical change
we are calling for. We do not revolt because a popular senatorial
candidate no matter how popular he is does not win or is cheated in an
election,. We do not engage in bloodshed because a deposed leader who
remains criminally charged wants to come back. We revolt because of
injustice and oppression, because of intolerable and massive hunger and poverty,
because of the treason and crimes against our country and people by our
leaders. Then revolution is justified and becomes a must.
