 Was the Bloody End to the Siege in Taguig a Rubout?
JEDDAH, 20 March 2005 — The violent end to the siege of the Camp Bagong Diwa prison facility in Taguig, in which 22 Muslim inmates and a policeman were killed as security forces stormed the facility on Tuesday, leaves one wondering whether things could have been done differently.
If only the siege in Taguig had been handled more sensitively, then perhaps the bloodbath could have been avoided as well as the tensions now being felt in the Muslim community.
Filipino Muslims for their part also have to stop buying into this culture of victimization, where every perceived slight done to them by the government is turned into a case of alleged anti-Muslim bias.
