“terrorist” hysteria against nationwide interfaith rally vs. GMA

The Suara Bangsamoro cannot anymore stomach the use of the Philippine
National Police of the “terrorist” hysteria in a bid to make President
Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo look like a target of terrorist killing in the midst
of a mammoth interfaith rally calling for her resignation.
“We condemn the PNP for using another Muslim (last week) as a fall guy to
divert the public attention from the massive interfaith rally in Makati
calling for President Arroyo’s resignation and ouster by staging a plot that
another so-called Jeemayah Islamiya terrorist is out to kill the President,”
said Amirah Ali Lidasan, national president of Mindanao-based group Suara
Bangsamoro.
Lidasan is afraid that another innocent Moro brother or sister will again be
used as a pawn to make it look like there is a threat to the life of the
President.
“The Moro people join the rest of the Filipino people in the nationwide
interfaith rally because they cannot stomach anymore the list of human
rights violations committed by the police and military because of the
anti-Moro policies released during President Arroyo’s term,” said Lidasan.
Lidasan also lambast the PNP, saying that the people have become numb to
their constant use of the “terrorist” hysteria, knowing full well that
Police Director General Avelino Razon has a lot more to answer for the
issues of abduction his men has done against NBN-ZTE star witness Jun Lozada.
Lidasan clarifies that the Moro people’s call for Arroyo’s ouster and
resignation is part of the legitimate call of the Filipino people and should
not be linked to any terrorist plot concocted by the PNP.
Lidasan said her group has joined various sectors in the interfaith rallies
held in key cities in Mindanao and in Manila.#
