Gov’t peace adviser ignores warning of US on MILF

Inquirer New Service reports Presidential Peace Adviser Ging Deles has ignored warnings by American military officials against negotiating peace with the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF). While the negotiating panel headed by Deles is aware of the persistent reports of the MILF's alleged link with terrorists, the panel had asked for the 'explicit disavowal of the MILF of all links with the organization and the institution with terrorit elements'. For Deles, this is a sufficient factor to proceed with the talks, and to tell US Officials 'Thanks but no thanks'.

It's high time to sideline US opinions for the sake of making another step towards the resolution of INTERNAL conflicts. Somehow, this is expected of US. Somehow, I expected something like this from Ging Deles. I would like to hear something like this from Deles' boss, the President. In my lifetime, please.
