The Plaza Miranda bombing

Part three

The rage and strong single-mindedness bordering on obstinacy which characterizes the CARMMA campaign to demonize Bongbong Marcos brings to mind just that kind of belligerence unleashed against President Ferdinand E. Marcos in the turbulence of the 70s, but with just one difference. The campaign against Marcos then was directed from below, while the campaign now is conducted from above. As betrayed by the recent commemoration of EDSA 1, where CARMMA openly mobilized forces, what else gives the direction but Malacañang. As in all warfare, the protagonist that has the higher ground has the advantage.
