Filipino mistaken for US soldier
[Straits Times] COMMUNIST insurgents who claimed to have wounded a US soldier mistook a light-skinned Filipino for an American, a Philippine military spokesman said on Tuesday. The communist New PeopleĊ½s Army (NPA) said it had wounded a US soldier helping local troops on the central island of Masbate two weeks ago, citing this as evidence of illegal US involvement in counter-insurgency operations.Posted by: Fred 2009-04-29 |
