 | | In the bloody pacification drives against the Moros (Muslim Filipinos) after the official close of the War, the United States government committed horrors of genocidal proportions. |
 | | Two of the most unforgettable battles are the one at Bud Dajo, Jolo, on March 9, 1906, where over 600 Moro men, women and children were massacred; and the one at Bud Bagsak on June 13, 1913, where at least 2000 Moros were killed (other estimates put the figure at 3,000), with 340 Americans slain. |
 | | The lawyer Moorfield Storey compared these atrocities to the lynching of fl men: “the spirit which slaughters brown men in Jolo is the spirit which lynches fl men in the South” (Storey 1906). |
