Terrorist siege in the Philippines.

[Sithara007]

Since when did you join the leftist social justice warriors? So sad.
Calling me nazi because im calling out facts. Nepal is a 3 world nation with an avg iq of 78.

Nice nazi i am

The vast majority of the world's population is living in third world nations. I am also living in a third world nation, and I am not complaining about it. We may be poor, but we never ask for any handouts from anyone. You were fortunate to be born in a developed nation, but you should not be too arrogant about it. No one knows what will happen in the future. For example, during the 1980s Nauru was one of the richest nations in the planet. Now it is one of the poorest. And look at Libya now. It was the richest country in Africa until 2011. A lot has changed since.

I really hope that this problem is Marawi will soon be over.  It's really sad to see humanity killing each other for the wrong belief.  May our creator protect our President and the soldiers of the Republic to finished this problem.

Hmm... I am more skeptical about it. Although the Muslims in the Philippines are less than 5% of the total population, there is a large section among them who are prone to radical ideology. Various Islamist organizations have waged war against the central government ever since the 1960s, and as of now I can't see any permanent solution in sight.

It's not going to be easily solved just by applying a martial law, I don't know the current situations that Marawi has but it's really going to be hard for them to overcome it. It's definitely a rebellion and a siege (if the terrorists are not from Marawi). Talking about a permanent solution, there is no such thing, there would be always a Contradict to everything that you believe in.

,Let us just assume these terrorist that are making a scene in the philippines want to catch the attention of those big time terrorist from other countries or nation, for them also to ask some support from other groups to make their group stronger and to have more soldiers and firearms.

[Wayan_Pedjeng]

The Philippines is a hardcore Catholic nation, and the rights of other minorities (especially that of the Muslims and Animists) are frequently violated. I heard that there has been lot of attempts to convert the Muslims to Catholicism in Mindanao and Sulu. And this may be the reason why so many of them are rebelling against the government.

I think they just did, if you don't know there are indonesians among the terrorist that occupy marawi city. That is the back up of the maute terrorist group and some are saying that it is a reinforcement by the group ISIS. I think they are really getting the attention of big fishes.

Really? How come, that members such as CoinGrabber are seculars the? "Hardcore catholic" what does that even mean?

Islamic terrorists have killed 1263 people in the last 23 days alone. To equate the threat of ‘right wing terror’ with the mechanized, industrial level bloodshed carried out in the name of Islam is intellectually dishonest and crass.

[kimtaekayo]

Because of Duterte's dirty words to US, well they didn't liked it. In returning the favor, Philippines now is the apple of their eye and they are commanding their terrorist puppets to conquer and kill those innocent victims.

They are, they are well funded by other terrorists and there are even foreign fighters who are fighting along side with this terrorists. It just goes to show that they already gather the support even before they attack Marawi City.

What's interesting are those drugs found in their lair. It's possible that there are other local lawless elements that connive with them.

The Catholic church does have a great deal of influence in the Philippine government, but it is not correct to say that the rights of the other religious minorities are being infringed. Also, the church has lost most of its hold after Duterte was elected as the president. He had a few public spats with the bishops and the deacons.

It's all about giving respect to people and their religion, basically, President Duterte was really talking about the traffic and not the church itself but definitely, he has always been direct to what he wants and he never goes in circle in his words, he talks straight to the point and is game to destroy the evil in the Philippines, Drugs.

[Mometaskers]

Government already recaptured 90% of the city. The terrorists have bunkered in various mosques across the city, sniping at soldiers from their minarets and other projections. That's the only reason they are still alive. The air force has resumed strikes and there was an American plane seen patrolling the area. Once they get permission to drop bombs on the mosques, it will all be over.

Atleast pinoys are very funnny.
You can stop your 3rd world conspiracies about me having alts.
Which nationality i am is easy to deduct and widely known except you are a 3rd world pinoy with an avg. Iq of 80.

Whats the difference about europe and pinoy utopia?
We have isolated terrorist attacks from radicalised  2nd/3rd generation muslims that kill less people then a public bus per year.
In pinoy utopia the muslim population conquers whole states.

Be more delusional please.

Ps: be grateful i give you the opportunity to spam for money instead of selling shabu

It just one city in a medium-sized province. No need to exaggerate. Only reason they have not been eliminated yet is because they're hiding in mosques, which is off-limits for attacks, as is the standard in many countries.

Mostly the reason why terrorist siege is happening not just on the Philippines but also in some nations around the world because they are seeking for the attention of the national government about their personal claims and needs because of the poverty that is really obvious in many nations. But their way to caught the attention of the government is really wrong because they are sacrificing the innocent minds not just of those children but also the families that are involved in the vicinity where the terrorist siege is happening.

You are still claiming that poverty is the issue here? Marawi is not the poorest city in the Philippines. The inhabitants were relatively well off. So don't play games here. It was Islam which caused this siege, and not poverty.

It is actually the only highly urbanized city in the autonomous Muslim region. It's far from the hovels in other Muslim provinces.

You don't have to lecture me about my country's own history. I know this.

That dont downplay the fact that the phillipines are a 3rd world shithole.

Is, it's still a single country. I know it's a shithole but there are far worse shithole around... like Zimbabwe or South Sudan. Not that I'm proud there are worse or that I'm happy for their misery put I also just have to point that out, same way you're accusing me of downplaying the situation here.

I can't help but wonder why you keep coming back to this thread just to diss at Filipinos when you also have other problems to worry about. Did you try to get a mail order bride but got rejected by the agency? Or did you visit here and got mugged or robbed? I suppose only bad experience or a bad case of ethnocentrism causes people to make such comments.

You're one of the few people here in the forum who I've seen regularly visit Pinoy-related threads just to call everyone an idiot.

Im sorry to hurt your feelings but this is not pinoyland where mr. Sucker duterte kills or jails everyone who says the truth.
Btw. I only call certain people idiots.
Saying that ph is a 3rd world shithole doesnt mean that every pinoy is a idiot.
And you are excusing now the state of PH because zimbabwe and somalia are even worst 3rd world shitholes?

You are a idiot.

Did you even read what I wrote honey? I was not making excuses, I merely pointed out that this third world shithole is still among the better shitholes, just to give you a perspective.

I was not hurt at all. I was not hurt at all, I just found your behavior baffling. And you don't have to bring the guy in here, no one's threatening your safety for all the things you've been saying.

The way you go around in this thread, you seem hell-bent on painting the situation in the country to be worse than it is, that's why I said you were exaggerating. And what response did I get? You sent me a wikipedia link and when I said I already know that, being that about my country, you replied with this ^^.

I know you hate third worlders here and it's quite easy to express that in the forum, you being anonymous. But maybe before going to bed, remember that a huge portion of humanity live in those countries and some of those people are already in your backyard.

There, a long reply. Hoping that made you a happy person, if you're the sort of guy that get a kick out this.

God you 70 iq pinoys always need someone to explain it to you 5 times.

You were clearly downplaying the situation in your home country wtf are you talking about?
The picture i linked clearly showed a ridiculous area under terrorist siege.

You even went so far to say that pinoyland is not the worst shithole of all the 3rd world countries lol.
That is just facepalm.

Im exaggerating? It seems you are just delusional about:
Martial law? Terrorist siege? Tbc resistance? Broken judical system (where the fuck do you have to in avg.
go 8 years to jail until you see a judge that checks your case Lol)?
/edit i forgot children soldiers

Dear, i dont (need to) hate 3rd worlders.
3rd world people are hating each other on their own.


Btw. Whats the link with hate and being anonymous? You cant be jailed for expressing your opinion like in duterte land

I was talking about just this particular incident which is restricted to a single city and then you included all the Islamist problems we've had in the past decades. Geez, maybe also mention the Commies and territorial spat with China, and us lying along the typhoon belt and the Pacific Ring of Fire, no? You even included tuberculosis which I believe you ranted about in a different thread as if this country is the only one that have that.  We all know about all these shit, yes even the child soldiers - Maute was not the first to use them, heck, even Commies do.

Doesn't sound like it. And you know it, anyone seeing your comments elsewhere do, they just don't reply to you coz you never accept you make any mistake and keep replying till they get tired of talking to you.

Read my first reply to you, the one in orange and ask yourself if that was worth all this.

second, it might be hard for your 80 iq to understand but i was talking mainly about two things:

1.) difference of europe and the phillipines

in the context of

2.) radical islam


this "terrorist siege in the Philippines" is the direct consequence of the century old muslim conflict in the PH.
all the things that i mentioned and didnt mentioned are deadly serious and are the reasons why the phillipines are a third world nation.

btw. sure all things eventually existed in history once.
but how the hell do you come to the conclusion that children soldiers arent that bad because commies had them too?

[hovrah]

Perhaps we have greatly exaggerated the problem of terrorism in the Philippines? The fact is that the government is trying to get rid of such obsession by all means and bring all the affairs in the country calmly. We understand that first of all the first article of the country's income suffers, iata tourism. Previously, the Philippines was a Mecca for lovers of thrill and entertainment, but today, because of fear for their lives and because of poor media information, many do not want to visit the Philippines.

[Sithara007]

Duterte's campaign against the drugs was a major success, despite heavy criticism from the western nations. And that is one of the reasons why I think that some of the drug kingpins might have allied with the ISIS leaders in Mindanao, to start this rebellion. This could be an attempt to derail the ongoing war on drugs in the Philippines.

[Sadlife]

This attackers are no longer attention seekers but actually an official affiliate group from the international group called ISIS cause among the dead attackers there said to be foreigners with them that were killed so that omly mean that they've had some support from the ISIS. The president of the Philippines made a wise move to declare martial law to confine the situation and now the battle in mindanao is nearing it's decisive moment and finally this terrorist that is terrorizing, kidnapping and beheading foreigners will finally be stopped. This dangerous people has been neglected from the past administration, right now is the only time it is being resolved.

Sigh, just admit you exaggerated THIS incident, the one we are talking about on THIS thread. You kept insisting a whole "state" was overrun. When I corrected you, you went on to start pointing at articles and when I told you I know that, you then started accusing me of "downplaying" the WHOLE country's situation and then went on rattling about different stuff like tuberculosis.

I'm also getting tired talking to you and repeating everything. If you want to keep at it at this thread, you are free do so, just don't expect further replies from me. You can even even go ranting about tuberculosis again. We don't behead people for saying stuff here. 

[Mometaskers]

Coz they're stupid. They said they knew people involved in this, that they've been tracking those people's activities. And yet here we have the group staging a battle in that city. Sorta like authorities abroad whenever a terrorist attack happen. "The guy's been on our watchlist since [insert year here]". And yet they did nothing. Police and intelligence agencies that has allowed these to happen are just as guilty as the attackers. It's like they killed the victims with their own hands.

Can't blame the authorities for this mess. Philippines is a country of more than 100 million people, and it is not easy monitoring all of them. These foreign fighters might have somehow slipped through the net. Even in the European nations such as the Great Britain and France, terrorist attacks are now frequently occurring despite strict monitoring and surveillance.
