                    [Summary] => Since last April, two framed Philippine souvenirs had greeted visitors to the embassy office of US Chargé d’Affaires Joseph Mussomeli.


One was a note verbale from Manila, assailing him for saying Mindanao could find itself in an "Afghanistan situation" if both the Philippines and the United States lost their focus on the war on terror. Another was the original of a newspaper editorial cartoon that generally agreed with his assessment.
