The recent spate of bombings in the Philippines send a clear signal to the public — GMA wants to prolong her rule. In a layered fashion of political orchestrations her coterie of lapdogs in the palace busies themselves conditioning the minds of people. We should remember bombing did happen before in Makati and in Manila, in malls only to justify and side sweep burning issues, a work of a person who lusting for power and enjoying every bit of the misery that the Filipino people carry.

In order to maintain herself in the helm of power, aside of having this Machiavellian approach, she is now attempting to change the 1987 Constitution, content and form. Content wise, she wants to get rid of all provisions that limit foreign big foreign business to exploit our natural resources. Form wise, she wants a parliamentary government with the end goal running for Prime Minister without term limits at her hometown, Pampanga. Changing content and form serves two purpose, one, changing content will appease big foreign business interests and form, to cloak her self against any political actions, cases that will be filed by the people if she steps down amid the killings, torturing and disappearances under her administration.

Way Out for the Filipino People

There is no way out than to unite. Doing nothing and waiting for the 2010 elections will not help. For all you know elections will not really happen. Such scenario is underway leading to a failed election if indeed they cannot rig the votes through speeded automation of electoral votes via computerization.

 There is a need to escalate and broaden the call for her ouster. She is consciously dangling the electoral scenario to the reactionary progressive opposition whose only aim to dampen their participation in the parliament of the streets. As a united front principle there is a need to continue gathering the broadest range against the narrowest target. The opposition must be united and not play up to GMA’s political maneuver to divide and rule or simply neutralize them.

 A wait and see attitude will not work either.

A basis for her ouster is clearly written in the wall that ordinary people can read.  To mention a few, selling our national sovereignty for a petty sum of money through legislation’s by opening of natural resources for to the exploits of foreign big businesses that has dislocated many of our Filipinos from their homes, brutal militarization campaign called Operation Freedom Watch 1 and 2 ( Oplan Bantay Laya 1 & 2 )which to this date, continues to victimize innocent people, exporting Filipinos, thus destroying families because her government wants their dollars while her administration engage in rampant graft and corruption.

Let us shout to Gloria her time is up, the Filipino people are standing up. Now is the time to unite. For those you had suffered much. You have nothing to loose. We need to dare, we need to struggle and we need to win this!
