#1 MALACAÃANG said on Tuesday that it expected the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) to punish its renegade members who attacked an Army base in Maguindanao province and assured the Muslim rebel group that peace talks would continue.

I don't get this. "Renegade" members? So, are the rest of the MILF membership considered "good" terrorists???

#2 Well it is other muslims you are talkng about so you might as well give up on that idea. Muslims never go against other muslims, end of story.

#4 BAR - re: "Renegade" members? I had the same thought. I suppose if they can hold a cease-fire then they might as well.

And what is the moral, boys and girls? It is that if you want to change a government, get some guns, kill some people and then when you start to lose the rebellion, call a ceasefire and your wishes will come true.

#5 "Here, let me spread my cheeks a little more so you can ram it in real hard. Oh no! A reach-around is not necessary!" -- Arroyo Government.

This is a farce. Anyone with half a mind can see that these so-called renegades are part of the MILF and fuly supported by them and not a real 'splinter group'. I'm doupt that they will do any real 'punishment' but the Arroyo government will save face and be able to continue the 'peace process'. At least until the MILF is able to re-arm itself.

If they are a 'splinter group' (another one?) then its obvious that the MILF does not have the ability to fulfill any obligations it might make.
