Letter to the Editor - ANAD, NGI joint statement

It is usually not by force of arms the communists bring a country down; it is also by manipulating public opinion to their advantage.

The Alliance for Nationalism and Democracy (ANAD) Party List and the New Guardians for Freedom and Democracy, Inc. (NGI) believe that democracy is strongest when the rule of the people reigns supreme. However, when the people are manipulated to the hidden agenda of the manipulators such is anathema to democracy.

This is the evil with the so-called people power as manipulated by the communists to their advantage. The first EDSA people power was initiated by the communists who were then in connivance with some ambitious politicians. Nevertheless, they blundered when they decided to be left out of the struggle upon realizing that the rightist military personnel led the uprising. After the euphoria of the EDSA success, our economy turned worse, the P2 per kilo galunggong rose to P40 per kilo. Another people power toppled the Estrada administration. Still our economy worsened. The communists then stood side by side with Arroyo in toppling the Estrada administration. But Arroyo, realizing the hidden agenda of the communists, later severed connections with them.

Now we are faced with the same crisis. The same people who led in shouting, "Crucify Estrada!" are the very people who now stand side by side with Estrada and his men and lead in shouting "Crucify Arroyo!"

Yes, "vox populi, vox Dei." But the voice of the deceived and manipulated people is the voice of Satan. The force behind the people power of the manipulated and deceived is demonic and dangerous.

The goal of the Maoist communist terrorists is to dismantle our democratic system and install in its place a regime of communist dictatorship. Using many so-called cause-oriented groups like Bayan Muna, Gabriela, Anak-Pawis, Anak-Bayan, Suara Bangsa Moro and others, whose cause is communism, the communists create anarchy and chaos in the streets, loudly shouting for democracy which deep within their hearts and minds they want to destroy.

As Lenin once told them, "Use democracy to destroy democracy; join the government to destroy the government." Worse, there are politicians whose personal goal is to have political power, who connive with these communist terrorists in the scheme to destroy our democracy.

The issue floated by the communists is a revolutionary council - a coalition government. This is where the evil lies. This is where manipulation sets in. Once they will be successful, the communists will eliminate their coalition allies until only they (communists) rule. Histories of Russia and China proved this.

ANAD Party list and NGI adhere to the basic principle of democracy, which is the rule of law. We cannot rely on mob rule - the voice of the deceived and manipulated. ANAD Party List and NGI are not for PGMA but we are for democracy. We believe that PGMA shall only be removed from office through the Constitutional process. We cannot stand for any extralegal process.

Let us not be victims of communist agitational propaganda. ANAD Party List and NGI enjoin all freedom-loving Filipinos to defend democracy from its number one threat - communism.

Mabuhay ang demokrasya!

Ibagsak ang CPP-NPA-NDF - Ang salot ng bansa!
