Islamic ritual slaughter (beheadings) from Iraq and Syria to Nigeria, the CAR and the Philippines. The common thread is — jihad. But the outrage is not directed at the savages. No. The outrage, condemnation, and vilification is for those who speak out against it.
After years of bloody jihad, the Philippines made extraordinary concessions to its hostile Muslim population. Back in 2012, the Philippines (a former American protectorate and 95% Catholic country) agreed to lose territory and to “share wealth” with the jihadi rebels in a deal negotiated by the Islamic supremacist world body, the OIC (Organization of Islamic Cooperation).
On September 10th, the Philippines said it plans to give Muslims an autonomous zone as part of a peace proposal.
The president of the overwhelmingly Catholic Philippines proposed Wednesday to give Muslims in the south the ability to run their own government under their own flag, part of a peace plan aimed at ending a four-decade [jihad] rebellion that has killed 150,000 people.But accommodation to Islamic demands only brings more demands, more bloodshed, more horror.
The draft law submitted by President Benigno Aquino III to Congress fleshes out a peace deal signed in March by the country’s largest Muslim insurgent group, the 11,000-strong Moro Islamic Liberation Front.
The autonomous region in the southern island of Mindanao, to be called Bangsamoro, would get its own 60-member parliament that would wield exclusive power over such areas as agriculture, trade, tourism and education.
Under the proposal, Islamic Shariah law would apply to Muslims in the region.
The Islamic State has attracted Muslim groups in the Philippines. And the Philippines mayor of Davao said back in August that over 100 Muslims in his town were recruited to fight for the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.
Members of the Abu Sayyaf jihad group have pledged allegiance to the Islamic State, also known as ISIS or ISIL. Another armed group in the Southern Philippines, the Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters, has offered its support to the Islamic State as well.
A few other clips of Filipino Muslims vowing loyalty to ISIL – including one supposedly shot inside a high security prison – have been making the rounds on the Internet. There are reports that about a hundred young Filipino Muslims have joined the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, two of whom were allegedly killed in battle.What is the common thread?

Philippine police are investigating apparent Islamist threats to kill one of two German hostages. The group has demanded a ransom of over $5 million (over 3.9 million euro) and an end to German anti-IS support.
Reports of images showing two German hostages held by Islamist militants in the southern Philippines are being investigated by the Philippines police, the SITE monitoring service said on Wednesday.
The photos showed Stefan Okonek, 71, and Henrike Diesen, 55, who were taken hostage in April, surrounded by hooded armed militants, including one holding a machete.
The images, which have circulated on Twitter, were reportedly accompanied by a threat from Abu Sayyaf rebels to kill one of the two captives, unless a ransom of over $5.6 million (4.36 million euro) was paid and Germany ceases to support US attacks against the “Islamic State” (IS) in Iraq and Syria.
According to the SITE intelligence group, the group warned they “will slaughter one of (the) two hostages” if the demands were not met within 15 days.
