#1 Mistake! If they go to plebiscite, the Saudis will funnel millions in partisan campaign aid aimed at setting up a Wahabi base in the country. Phillipinos are generally poor, so some might vote away their sovereignty for quick money, without considering Wahabi payback leverage (invest your sons in jihad).

#2 The Ben Laden strategy of estabishing operations in 'failed countries'. Certainly fits the mode.

Hell, if you're going to surrender sovereignty then just give them independence and then turn around and tell the US government to go ahead and clean up the place like Afghanistan. Going to end up doing that anyway, just be done with it.

#3 This article from a Filipino paper says that it is a MILF proposal and gives no indication that it has been accepted by the government.

#4 Translation: Bend over... this won't hurt a bit. Now where did I put that broomstick......

Arroyo probably won't even ask for a reach-around.

#5 Anything Kabalu, AKA Lipless eddie, says is a lie. He is only in power because Hashim died of wounds and no one else would take over. I doubt GMA will give into allowing a part of that country to break away. She knows it will become a terrorist state very quickly. Not only the soddies but Lybia will pour millions into building a Morro army. If this happens our "second front" will eventually becom center of Gravity on this WOT.

#6 Muslim or non-Muslim, the Mabuhay boyz are all future Chicoms/Chinese citizens and expendable Socialist economic units anyways iff the USA loses the WOT.
