We want peace and order restored nationwide. But are we so desperate that we want to revive one of the most notorious units of the Marcos dictatorship? Recent reports said President Estrada has agreed to reactivate paramilitary units to augment government troops fighting communist and Muslim secessionist rebels. An initial 35,000 men will be recruited for the Citizens Armed Force Geographical Units or CAFGU.

The public can only gasp in dismay when their President admits, with his usual candor, that he was surprised by something he himself had made possible.
