ANAD hits NDF for ‘terrorizing’ GPH

By ANAD Partylist
September 12, 2011

“Now the worms are out of the can! The venoms of Maoist terrorism are unleashed to confuse the Filipinos and paint a dazzling array anti-government propaganda,” said ANAD Rep. Jun Alcover reacting to a statement by NDFP spokesman Fidel Agcaoili warning of more Maoist terrorist attacks unless their jailed consultants” (SIC!) are released from detention. (09-10-11 www.inquirer.net.).

“True to their tag as terrorists, they are now terrorizing government and the Filipino people, once again! Contrary to Agcaoili’s assertions, it was not the government but Jalandoni, his boss, who made the statement before Philippine Daily Inquirer executives, last September 6 that the NDF shall resume the peace talks with government in October. Sila-sila na lang eh sintonado pa kung kumanta!,” he said.

Rep. Alcover expressed dismay on the apparent split within the Maoist terrorist CPP organization that could spell doom to the peace initiatives. “This development somehow confirms highly credible information received by ANAD that the Maoist terrorist CPP-NPA-NDF is currently experiencing a fractious and debilitating split with one faction led by Jalandoni who remains loyal to chair Jose Ma. Sison, and the other by Satur Ocampo of the socalled locals where Fidel Agcaoili belongs. In fact news reports say that Joma’s influence in the NDFP is waning (09/04/2011 www.gmanews.tv),” the ANAD solon declared.

It was learned that the Sison faction is seeking to resume the already stalled peace talks while that of Ocampo wanted to stir and pursue continued violence and terrorism pursuant to the CPP 5-year plan. “Sison’s interest prompting Norway’s intervention to revive the talks resulting in an agreement by both panels to resume the talks in October without any precondition but with positive steps undertaken by both the GPH and NDFP. But Agcaoili and Ocampo, with the latter showing extreme callousness by his deafening silence on the issue, insisted that government release the 13 arrested NPA-NDF terrorist leaders before the peace talk moves ahead,” Rep. Alcover said.

“They should clarify as to who really is the leader of the NDFP that the government shall meet on the negotiating table. We do not have the luxury to be witnesses to a bloody and violent internal power struggle within the Maoist terrorist organization that shall eventually ensue,” he added.

However, the former NPA political and commanding officer in Eastern and Central Visayas turned pro-democracy advocate warned the PNoy government saying that Agcaoili’s recent statement smacks of arrogance and deliberate insincerity that the PNoy administration must respond appropriately.

“Government must deal with this squarely and the full force of the law thrown against them! Precious time, money, and efforts were wasted while pursuing peace with a group that skillfully uses negotiations not as a method of settling conflicts but as an instrument of warfare! Government should now wake up and act with dispatch to put an end to the deceptive machinations and lies relentlessly pushed by the adherents of the Godless, violent, and inhuman Maoist communist ideology,” he emphasized.
