Gloria Macapagal Arroyo's dhimmitude fails to appease the jihadists. From AP, :
MANILA, Philippines (AP) -- A trio of bombs jolted the Philippines on Monday, killing at least three people and injuring at least 16 others, police said.The Muslim separatist group Abu Sayyaf claimed responsibility in a call between the explosions....
"You can attribute this to us," an Abu Sayyaf leader, Abu Solaiman, said in a call to local radio 20 minutes after the blasts. "There is one more to come."
The third bombing was reported soon afterward on a bus along Manila's busy EDSA highway just below a station for an elevated train....
A bombing killed at least 14 people and wounded 70 others December 12 in General Santos, a bustling, predominantly Christian city of 500,000 people about 620 miles (1,000 kilometers) south of Manila.
It was the first terror attack there since a shopping mall blast killed 14 people in 2002. Several Muslim militants were charged with multiple murder over the attack.

Philippine army battling militants on Jolo
Big News Network.com Sunday 13th February, 2005 (UPI)
Some 4,000 to 5,000 Philippine army troops battled about 800 al-Qaida-linked Abu Sayyaf militants during the weekend on the southern island of Jolo.
Philippine officials said the Muslim rebels were making a last stand after a week of clashes that left 90 soldiers and militants dead and 12,000 people displaced, the BBC reported Sunday.
Abu Solaiman, an Abu Sayyaf leader, had told a radio station his group joined forces with followers of jailed militant Nur Misuari to avenge the death of a couple and their son who had been killed by troops.
The Philippine military said it returned fire after the couple shot at soldiers. Military officials said the militants then attacked troops at an army base, killing 30, and the government flew in reinforcements.
Since Abu Sayyaf leader has impudently described the bombs as 'a Valentines Day gift to the President' even dithering Gloria must know she has to make a stand against Muslim thugs and Terrorists. According to her Army Chiefs, the rebels are about to be 'finished off' in Jolo. Let us hope this is true although Muslims are not about to be
'finished' quietly. Expect more carnage but truth is if Phillipines are not prepared to fight for their land and way of life, they will lose it. This applies to those of us in the West with rapidly burgeoning Muslim Populations and ever more demands that Islam be accomodated : they want nothing less than complete domination.
AND MUSLIMS WILL USE BOMBS, DAILY TERROR, BEHEADINGS, ANYTHING TO ATTAIN THIS GOAL...
The sanctified CBC misinformed Canadians about the explosions in the Philippines on the major 10pm tv news today, by not stating that this was done by an islamic group......no mention of islam, muslims, nothing....
It was soooo CBC.
