Remember this guy, Sup Forums?
> German sailor gets taken hostage by Abu Sayyaf 3-4 months ago
> demand 9mio € ransom
> nobody pays
> lower demand to 450k €
> nobody pays
> alright, we're gonna kill him TODAY
> flips start with airstrikes
> flips about to send in ground troops RIGHT NOW
Any flip on here who can comment on this situation? Our media went silent on it.
Why do white people keep going anywhere near that Islamic shithole
Also our army doesn't give a shit about hostages. The german might as well be dead already
> HAPPENNNING
sorry bout that
Also curious about what was going on behind the scenes... did your government forbid us to pay ransom or did ours refuse that by itself? I mean, we have the stance to never cooperate with terrorists and/or hostage takers, but in the past at least we sent in special forces to resolve that kind of shit...
>Why do white people keep going anywhere near that Islamic shithole
because we're white. we go wherever there's profit in the wind
Agree, it's his own fault. What I wanted to know is if you got any updates, I mean it's happening right in front of your nose. Any word from your local media?
He was probably dealing drugs and Duterte found out and sent the military in to kill him.
In that case he could have done that months ago. And if they weren't going to negotiate anyways (which is fine, don't give money to terrorists), why wait until the last second?
And if they got this area known to be infested by islamic terrorists, why haven't they bombed the whole area into oblivion long ago in the first place?
Tourists just need to stop going way too down south to be honest.
Also, being a separatist these days is pretty much like getting stuck between a rock and a hard place.
So what's up? Why do you tolerate that part of your country to be in this state? Buy some napalm and resolve the situation. Duterte is badass enough from all it seems.
Muslims are pretty much getting uppity because of the recent exposé that Duts ordered retaliatory strikes on mosques when muslims bombed a cathedral during '93.
Why southern Mindanao has been some sort of a wild west is because they resent what they see as Catholic rule (manila) over them.
Also, weak political will to quell the decades long conflict. Erap was a retard and a half but we almost pulverized them during his all out war
