The rascal Duterte is promoting vigilantism and criminality under his direction. He is practically though unwittingly urging the justice-seeking people to kill him as the No. 1 criminal and traitor in the Philippines as well as the other big plunderers and mass murderers in his government.
But of course the demagogue Duterte also thinks that by calling on the people to kill criminals he means to target the small easily accessible criminals and deflect attention from the biggest criminals like him and his accomplices in high-level corruption and mass murder.
It is like using Oplan Tokhang to kill the poor and small timers and to impose the Duterte drug syndicate on all drug lords. Or Oplan Kapayapaan which abducts, tortures and murders rebel suspects to serve the interests of the Duterte ruling clique, the foreign corporations, big compradors and big landlords.
Below is a report on Duterte’s declaration three years ago calling on the people to become vigilante murderers but in fact covering up the actual deployment of Duterte death squads recruited from the police and the military for killing mere suspects and opponents of Duterte.
