Philippines Resumes Process to Decommission Ex-Rebels’ Guns
[BenarNews] The Philippines has resumed the decommissioning of thousands of firearms turned in by ex-Moslem separatist rebels in the south as part of a peace deal with Manila, after the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague) ...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...pandemic disrupted the process, officials said Wednesday. Moro Islamic Liberation Front rebels signed a peace agreement with the central government in 2014, ending their long-running separatist insurgency in the Mindanao region. Former MILF officials today head a transitional government in an autonomous region (BAARM), which came about through the agreement. The deal also stipulated that the group’s ex-fighters would surrender their weapons for decommissioning. Posted by: trailing wife 2021-11-11 |
