Puno’s ‘war on terror’ speech

VERY incisive, dear [Supreme Court Chief] Justice [Reynato Puno]. very clear, unequivocally clear.

The sooner the Americans get their noses out of the country with their anti-terrorism pretext, the better Filipinos’ lives will be. About time somebody in the higher echelons of government spoke out on this reality.

Fighting a supposedly terrorist threat away from US shores is a flimsy excuse for America’s pursuit of their brand of hegemony sponsored by their greedy corporations. The sooner they leave us alone, the better our lives will be. More power! Applause, applause, applause.
