MERGED: Do You Want U.S. Statehood For the Philippines?

JoRed's in Canada.
JoMa Sison is in the Netherlands.
While Poor People die for a Dead Ideology.
The Arm Chair Revolutionaries stuff their mouths with Steak and Red Wine in a Foreign Land.
The UP educated Pawns spout off memorized rhetoric, while Peasants die for empty Promises.
It's been almost 30 years, boys...
It's time to re-evaluate communist doctrine, look for the best possible solution, and peel ourselves from these Meaningless Virtual War Cries.
What have you done for the Filipino people today?
************************************************** ********

dissect the issue, dear friend. are u the kind who goes up to the hinterlands and see what is wrong with the picture? are u the kind who eats with his hands along with the barrio folks up in the mountains with children running round unbathed and unclothed? are u the kind who listens to the grievances of workers who are being laid off from their jobs for no apparent reason at all? are u the kind of person who listens intimately to a neighbor whose house is being torn down along with so many of ur other neighbors because the very soil where their houses are standing for 40 damn years is actually a part of a hacienda and the owner now wants them out?

tell me whats wrong with this picture. if u cannot then it is basically hopeless even to try and show u the picture itself...

because u will just tore it and throw it all away. THAT is when these people DIE of hunger.
and one more thing...

"What have you done for the Filipino people today?"

No matter how you see it. Communism is not a mgical wand that can erase all the problems. Its actually A PART OF THE PROBLEM. You are only using the impoverishment of the people to gain sympathy.

I'm not in America now. I'm in Cebu. I'm a student. I'm 20. What does that have anything to do with it? And no when I lived in the US, I did not live in the West Coast. I lived in Minnesota ... Hibbing, Minnesota ... Zip Code 55746 ... population around 30,000. Racism exists as a part of life in all parts of the world ... but saying that racism is a part of American policy is misleading and incorrect. You will never be able to stop racism because people will always have their individual beliefs, but how in the world can you say racism is part of American foreign policy? Racism towards what? towards whom?

Does the Philippines profit from the precious materials? Why don't you ask that to the Filipinos who partly own those mines. How do Filipinos not profit? You may not get any benefit from the mining ... but more likely than not ... a certain few get a lot of money from it. In the Philippines, the rich get richer ... the poor get poorer. You cannot say the Philippine politicians can't do anything about abuse thats happening (if there is any). This is the Philippines, not the any other country ... they have all the power they need to do what has to be done. If abuse is done and Philipppine politicians do nothing about it, it is their fault that those abuses are being commited. I any case ... if there are any abuses that are being done in the mining areas ... what does this have anything to do with American foreign policy which you say has so much racism. You put too much faith in the honesty of Philippine politicians and businessmen. Honesty is rare in the highest ranks of the Philippines ... as it is in many other countries.

What if we adopt on what Rizal had said? Do you think we can be economically stable? You must be dreaming... Being a Nationalist is no longer needed in order to survive. We are not POOR it's just that no Filipinos are capable to run the country and I would say to swallow our pride and surrender tis country to the Americans. We don't have that discipline to control and manage the constitution of our country. Think about being a Nationalist and practice our customs and traditions. One example, we are already over populated that has something to do with our tradition. If we don't adopt the foreign countries Family Planning system, we will have a population explotion that will be blown out of proportion. Thats only one example.

Ipadayon ang gisugdan ni Bonifacio!

O.T.

I would like to comment on the phrase from JoRed... kong ganahan man d i kaha mo ipadayon ang gisugdan ni Bonifacio... ngano naa man mo sa lain dapit nga ang gubat naa man diri?! Tungod sa rason nga dunay gusto mo patay ninyo? ha!? armed revolution man kaha inyong gusto? dayon ngano dili man mo andam nga mamatay?

To J0se_Rizal thanks for your contributions sir... kahibaw ko nga pwede onta ka mo adto sa gawas (just like JoRed), pero you choose to help the poor Pinoys, dili sa paagi nga sige og yaw2x nga sa ilang pagtoo nakatabang sila.

This country is a sinking ship!!!!!!!!!mga amigo.......We Need CAPTAIN AMERICA to the Rescue.....


Swallow your pride.............the longer it takes the worst we end up to........

Filipinos, is hard to UNITE, they are pulling each other to the downard spiral direction.

Experience sa mga relatives even, masuya kong unsa na ilang mga relatives pagkabutang.............That's one of our worst attitude sa mga FILIPINOS. I mean not all, but mostly. CRAB MENTALITY.......We can't expect to unite.

One unity that it happened sa EDSA 1 and it only lasted for months, nag gubot na pod ug balik.


Senators and Congressmen, busy sa PAGDA Utay sa usag usa, sa left hand busy ihap sa KORAKOT(PORK BARRELS nga NAWALA). MGA BAGA^ UG NAWONG PAKA ON SA ILANG PAMILYA MGA KINAWAT>.........kita kas mga nawong ning mga tawhana morag mga BABOY. Ilang MODEL SI JINNGOY MORAG UNGGOY BOSOG..............pastilan baga a gyud ug nawong.

why do we always have to rely on external sources to pick us up from our own junk? the problem comes from within the filipino people! nobody stirs up trouble but our own selves. who has to fix it? not them, but us!
