    Funny how Muslim insurgents in a non Arab country isn’t newsworthy to American media.

    It doesn’t really further The Narrative, so why cover something so inconsequential? Better to bash Republicans 24/7/365.

    The Filipino armed forces have been at this for decades. Don't mess with them.

    Plenty of folks in those islands still remember when the Japanese came to visit, so they've got a cultural memory that we lack. They've also got a leader who's willing to take the fight to the enemy. I don't like everything that Duterte does, but he gets results.

    On the tactical level, it was interesting to see so many guys using M-16 platform rifles with iron sights. I had also never seen an M-2 on a tripod in house-to-house fighting before.
