Re: Pictures From The Digos Massacre in The Philippines
June 25, 1989, in a small village in Digos, Davao del Sur, 39 people, including many children, were mercilessly shot down by the CPP-NPA rebels while they were attending a Sunday mass . Two of the victims, Ruben ayap UCCP pastor and his brother were beheaded. The reason: the village heads refused to cooperate with the rebels. The CPP-NPA General Command later admitted responsibility for the brutal killing and promised compensation to families of victims, which never happened. The incident became known as the Digos Massacre ", has attracted national attention at the time. The whole country was enraged by the carnage. However, none has taken the matter too seriously, except the government. Even the United Church of Christ in the Philippines (UCCP), later, in an ironic twist, gravitated toward the left who have perpetrated the murders of his flock. She even put the blame on the government. Finally, the incident slowly faded in memory of the people. There was no justice achieved. · · · · |

Re: Pictures From The Digos Massacre in The Philippines
I remember this, posters of this event hanged on towns. most we're hacked including lots of toddlers. national democratic front, communist party of the philippines and their armed wing - new people's army we're conducting massacres within their ranks as well for they reasoned that they we're infiltrated by military intelligence. barely any fighters left, the disillusioned majority opted for the battles of real life instead. |
