China bowed to the demands of the terrorist group Nuamaan Brigade of the Islamic Resistance and issued a statement that all Chinese should stay out of Iraq. The terrorists said they would free the 8 Chinese hostages if China issued…

Leftists or otherwise, the Filipino nation is all united behind saving the life of our countryman. We think letting Angelo dela Cruz die because of a cause that lacks justification is wrong.

Your Jimmy Swaggart-minded president can say anything defending his decisions to wage his war on terrorism in Iraq. Be it because of oil or the paranoia over the presence of WMDs, but be it at the cost of American lives only since Americans are mainly thinking of their own selfish interests disguised as win-win foreign policies anyway. Iraq is neither our war nor the entire world’s. It is only Bush’s.

My heart goes out to the families of the 650 plus American soldiers and the tens of thousands Iraqi citizens who have died since the start of the war which nobody will ever win. So many lives wasted because of the decisions of only one man. Such waste.

It’s not about terrorism, that American fighting for, but World domination. control of fossil fuel is the main purpose. Why Afghanistan because the pipeline pass thru from Russia to Turkey. Why Iraq because that’s were the biggest oil reserve in the World.

Hope you got the point on fighting terrorism is only cover up on the real motives, clearing the way is the first step.

While We, Filipinos worldwide prayed for the release of the hostages, Our leaders condemned the act of Terrorism.

It is obvious that you are among the people out there that just do not get it.

The Iraq war was not about whether or not Saddam himself was involved with 9/11 or had direct Al Qaida ties, which he did and opponents of the war choose to ignore. It was about fighting the terrorist support structure everywhere it existed. Saddam did use WMD’s on his own people, even if it was years ago. Saddam did obstruct the UN weapons inspectors, Saddam raising money by selling oil to our ALLIES in France, Germany and Russia. He was a psycho and so were his sons, his whole regime.

He was the one that invaded Kuwait a decade ago and so demonstrated that he was not oppoesed to starting a war. He was paying Palestinians to bomb Isrealis.

If we had just gone into Afghanistan and cleared out the Taliban, they would have gone to the next sovereign nation that would give them asylum. Wanna bet who would gladly do it? I know. Wanna bet who would have taken the opportunity to sow the remnants of the terrorist groups together under his own control? Don’t think Saddam would do that? Join the real world.

We used him. He made himself a willing target through non-cooperation with UN mandates and his hideous human rights record. So we took him out and used his country as the staging ground for our troops. How else could we put 160,000 troops and equipment smack in the middle of whole Islamofascist part of the world? We had to invade somebody and Saddam made sure it was him by his actions.

Now, even the terror groups in neighboring countries are limited in what they can do. There have been ZERO follow up attacks on western soil. The governments of Iran and Syria have their government supported terror groups on a tight leash because the allies do not have to ramp up their war machine…IT IS SITTING NEXT DOOR AND READY TO FIGHT.

That is why the Phillipines and other nations should support the war, for the overall effect and projection of a united front against terror tactics. We showed that attacks like 9/11 will not be viewed as criminal activities to be investigated and tried. They are acts of war and if your country condones it then you are part of the danger to free people and we will NOT turn the other cheek. And we will not make some token show of anger.

These groups have been relegated to kidnapping individuals and hiding in holes. If Saddam’s regime was still going strong they would be free, in training, in Iraq and neighboring terror friendly countries, they would have financial support and they would have already launched follow up attacks over here. Saddam would have made sure of it, because he enjoys being a part of that, of giving the finger to the free world. He has proven so again and again.

I firmly believe my family is safer because of the war and Iraq and that security was bought with the blood of the men and women that fight over there. I will not spit on their sacrifice by subscribing to a theory that they have accomplished nothing by their sacrifice. The evidence is all around me everyday in the total lack of smoldering, crumbling skyscrapers.

The article you linked to quotes Crispin Beltran of Bayan Muna, which is avowedly left-wing, and people of the same persuasion who are PARTY LIST congressmen, i.e. unelected, appointed to the position. Don’t try to palm them off are representatives of “your” people.

Tom Kearney, are you an American? you might be the only thinking one (in this forum anyway).

Arroyo did not make the decision. The people did. We Filipinos would have pressured our government to stayput, if we know this is a just war. One life is more important than cooperation in an unjust war.

The arguments against my country in relation to the Iraq war and being there doesn’t make sense. We could easily say more of the same relating to U.S.A. But it’s non sequitor.

We fought with you in wars and our hearts also bled for you on 9/11. Your seemingly win-win foreign policy since the end of the second world war has been the cause of your current major concerns, including mid-east and terrorism. My poor country does not owe America anything but overpriced loans. The Filipino honor is intact although some of our government officals’ aren’t.

Nonetheless, we will fight with you in wars in the name of freedom and equality and our hearts will bleed for another 9/11 (God forbid!). But we believe saving the life of an ordinary Filipino still makes a difference these days.
