Jose Ma Sison the founding Chairman of CPP NPA who exerts still a considerable influence on the movement has apparently miscalculated the resolve of Duterte for daring the latter to stop the talking and fight, abandoning the ceasefire and fighting; because of the latters desire for continued martial law. The continued ML limits the movement of the armed troops/cadre of CPP NPA The attacks in Negros Mindanao by NPA military targets, the occupation of the NHA housing in Pandi, the loud protests at Batasan today the protests rally at Mendiola, the clash at US Embassy today are apparently instigated by Panggulong Sison.
The NPA is still considered as as an Foreign Terrorist Organization by US State Department
But Pres Duterte is a force to reckon with and we might still see in our lifetime the end of the communist movement as it has died out at the rest of the world, which as has embraced socialist capitalism. Even where it was founded in Russia.
Duterte enjoys the whole support of PNP and AFP and he makes sure by making them happy that that support continues is solid and unwavering. He may have erred with Marvin Marcos, but that is the way he shows his support to the PNP so that the latter will support him too to the end. And politically the vote he got today from Congress and Senate for extension of Martial Law in Mindanao until December 2017 is solid proof of the power and strength of the govt represented by Duterte. From Inquirer - Senate Congress vote 261 -18 to extend Martial Law in Mindanao The position of the leftist and other detractors did not get much support and traction (Are the communists rebels losing their appeal
And now for the CPP NPA, the end may be near.
While Duterte offered his hand of peace to the Communist, they chose to stay by their ideology of continued armed conflict, the never ending thesis anti thesis of Hegel. Why cant we live in peace? Why has there to be conflict? Why has it to be Panggulo ng Bayan? Joe Ma? It is as Pres Duterte has said to be silly.
