Philippines: “Pay the Jiziyah or Else…” sez Ex-Terrorist
by sheikyermami on April 17, 2008
COTABATO CITY, Philippines — A Muslim rebel-turned-politician has warned of unabated lawlessness and terrorism to be unleashed by militant armed groups in Mindanao unless the problem of poverty was addressed immediately.
* There are many poor Christians in the Phillipines, did they ever resort to terrorism if their problem was not addressed immediatiely?
In a two-hour dialogue here with 14 visiting European envoys on Tuesday, new Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) chair Muslimin Sema said terrorist and other criminal activities were inevitable when “our people continue to remain poor and starving.”
Sema, who is also the mayor of Cotabato City, took over leadership of the MNLF from founder Nur Misuari. The MNLF, the main Muslim insurgency, signed a peace agreement with the government in 1996.
Sema told the envoys headed by French Ambassador Gerard Chesnel that the government had failed to implement some provisions of the 1996 peace agreement.
He warned that “other militant groups may grow weary and desperate [because] of the government’s inaction and may resort to violence and ways of destabilization.”
Chesnel told Sema and other Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) officials that they came here to assess the security situation and the socioeconomic condition of the Muslims.

Click hereThis is a satirical website. None of what you read here has anything to do with Islam, because Islam is a Religion of Peace. Everybody knows that good Muslims never do the things they do, (because Allah does it for them, Quran 8:12) and we know that only our misperceptions, ignorance and stereotyping of Islam makes Muslims chop off heads, kill and rape women and children, bomb subways, buses, nightclubs and fly jets into buildings. If it wasn't for the media and da Jooozzz, we wouldn't even know its happening.We welcome open, honest, thoughtful, and vigorous discussion in the comments threads, so do yourself a favour and don't accuse us of being 'haters' because we are loving, tolerant people. Don't curse us, don't threaten us with death or hellfire, and don't accuse us of being "just like the terrorists" because we don't do to Muslims what they do to us or to themselves. Yes, we know that only idiots oppose Islam and sensible people submit, but you should know that we are ignorant bigots, hypocrites and Islamophobes, and we prefer to remain that way...But since you are forcing yourselves (and your abhorrent belief-system on us) we will defend ourselves, because we must. Avoid tu quoque and ad hominem attacks. If you annoy us, you will be banned and your posts summarily deleted.Try to add to the discussion, don't try to sell snake oil, don't try to cover us with Islamic shrouds of kitman and taqiyya, write in English, try to tell the truth,
(we know that's hard for you because you are all pathological liars) but the truth will set you free, try it!One more thing: don't think you can post here under multiple monikers. You will quickly be disappeared! The same goes for
trufers and conspiracy kooks: you get one chance, one time. Blow it out of your ass if you must; put your stupidity on display.But you won't be back, trust me on that.Take a deep breath before you post, try to make some sense, do not just vent, do not make a fool of yourself and if you prove us wrong you can earn 10 Islamic dollars for your piggy bank. Deal?
