Jet plane from Muslim countries? You have got to be kidding. Who? Saudi Arabia? They need their Filipino workers and most of these workers are Christians. What's happening here is that the current government is forcing our people to be chess pieces. Well, we are unwilling chess pieces but there will be consequences in the aftermath. If you think the MILF are a scary bunch, wait till they get the Christians in a fighting mood. We want to keep our democratic way of life, but when push comes to shove God knows we can fight... afterwhich we will turn our attention to the minds behind this mess.
