Olympian blame game?

I RECEIVED an email from a dear friend asking why Commission on Human Rights Chair Etta Rosales was in Mamasapano, thusly: “Can anyone explain why Chairperson Etta Rosales of the CHR went to Mamasapano with so many journalists to investigate and show her compassion publicly for the MILF’s relatives whose rights were allegedly violated by the government? On whose side is she on? Is she not rubbing salt on the wounds of the families of the SAP martyrs and on the sentiments of the Filipino people? She did not even concern herself with the human rights of the SAP martyrs. Is this what the CHR is for? She is giving the wrong signal to our soldiers to say the least.”

Was it wrong or imprudent for Etta to do so? I don’t think so, with all due respect to my friend; I am from the human rights community and side with her. Probe all abuses and see where the evidence leads.
