THE RIGHT THING

When my mother was asked if there were any attempts to get her to discuss her differences with the President, this is what she said:

“Napakahalaga sa akin ay matingnan ko sa sa mata ang bawat huwes at sabihing tumayo ka. Kahit sino pang makapangyarihan ang tumawag sa iyo, manindigan ka sa iyong paniniwalang tama. At huwag na huwag kang papatakot. Kung ako po ay nakipag-usap, nag-kompromise, nawala na po ang ganoong kakayahan ko…. Hindi ako nag-kompromiso, nanindigan ako sa tama.”

PAANO PINILIPIT NI PANGULONG FERDINAND MARCOS, SR. ANG KASO UKOL SA PAGPASLANG KAY DATING SENADOR NINOY AQUINO NOONG AGOSTO 21,1983?

Ito po ang kwento kung paano pinilipit ni Pangulong Ferdinand Marcos, Sr. ang kaso ukol sa pagpaslang kay dating Senador Ninoy Aquino noong August 21, 1983. Words po ito mismo ng Korte Suprema. Ang title po ng kasong ito ay Galman vs Sandiganbayan (G.R. No. 72670, September 12, 1986). Nasa baba po ang link. Paki-click po at basahin mismo. Paki-panood niyo din po ng video.

REMEMBER WHEN MARCOS’ GENERALS WHO WERE ORDERED TO SHOOT AT THE PEOPLE INSTEAD TURNED THEIR BACKS ON THE MARCOSES AND SIDED WITH THE PEOPLE IN 1986?

Let us remember the times when there were so many people who were heroes, including the generals, other officers, and soldiers who refused to shoot at their fellow Filipinos in EDSA. Remember that by doing so, they disobeyed the chain-of-command, and risked their careers. But they were following a higher law – the law of God. Kung sinunod nila ang twisted interpretation ng Romans 13, massacre of thousands of innocent ang nangyari.

KAILAN MALI ANG “FORGIVE AND FORGET”

Ang pagnanakaw sa kaban ng bayan (ill-gotten wealth) ay hindi kasalanan sa mga indibidwal na Kristiyano bilang Kristiyano, kundi sa Republic of the Philippines, the corporate entity trying to recover the ill-gotten wealth; the People of the Philippines whose criminal laws were violated; ang mga mahihirap na napagkaitan ng benefits of the money that was stolen; and the taxpayers who will continue to shoulder the loans that the Marcos government incurred dahil nilimas niya ang treasury ng bayan.
