The Second Great Rectification Movement DID NOT initiate killing purges but was a result of the need to stop them which was occuring while JoMa Sison was in prison. He led the SGRM to end the senseless killing by renegade elements.

[edit] Article neutrality

Is this article neutral? It appears to me it could use some work. --Peter Robinett 07:47, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

Deleted biased terms. --203.87.158.181 11:11, 17 September 2005 (UTC)

Removing the extortionist term does not necessarily indicate bias or POV. Since NPA extortion victims are usually rural landlords or business owners, I will add them to the article.

It was not the extortionist term that was removed. The anonymous user was pertaining to this. Anyway, I'd like to know why this particular paragraph was removed. And please try adding --~~~~ to every post you make in the talk pages. --Quess 15:51, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] NPA and Abu Sayyaf?

I read in another article that the NPA is allies with Abu Sayyaf, is this true? Why would a Communist guerrilla army ally itself with a smaller Islamic fundamentalist group which wants to create an Taliban-style theocracy???

Do you have a link to an article? I think those are just rumors... --Quess 18:13, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
Yeah actually it was at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Enduring_Freedom_-_Philippines
It just seems to so wierd to imagine an NPA-Abu Sayaf alliance. I am not a Maoist or a Marxist personally, but why would Marxist-Leninist-Maoists who wish to rid the world of all class and social divisions ally with a group that wants to establish a Koranic Theocracy and has even beheaded Catholic school girls for sectarian reasons??
please sign your edits, Gocanada --Quess 07:11, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

the npa does not align with the abu sayef but does with MNLF which is different.... but to the US it's all the same i guess....

AS a MARXIST i completely disagree with the notion of a cpp-npa , abu sayyaf alliance this nothing but a mere fallacy created by the paranoid american propaganda against socialism —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.189.11.2 (talk) 05:56, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Weasel words

Restored some edits and asked for citation in some. Also edited out weasel words. I'm still not comfortable with it though as some still smell like propaganda. What do you think? --Quess 16:41, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Military bases

Where are the military bases of the NPA? In which provinces are these bastards most active in? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.4.10.235 (talk) 11:18, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

Ahem, please keep NPOV. (64.229.202.184 (talk) 01:44, 1 April 2008 (UTC))
