Bracing for an assault

It’s tense here inside the Manila Peninsula Hotel. We’re staying put even after National Capital Region police chief Geary Barias ordered the evacuation of the hotel.

The Makati regional trial court has reportedly cited Brig. Gen. Danilo Lim, Sen. Antonio Trillanes IV and the Magdalo soldiers in contempt of court after they walked out of this morning’s hearing and ordered their arrest.

We have moistened the hotel’s table napkins, towels, even table cloths in case law enforcers lob tear gas canisters. We are bracing for the worst.

    I saw the video tapes of the attack on the Peninsula. Tanke, 5 and I guess more than a thousand troops VS 2 rebels, their supporters and journalists covering their rebellion against the criminal holding on to her stolen position. Yuck ang operation. Tinakot nang husto ang mga taumbayan na walang magawa kundi manood na lamang. Tawag namin diyan, “yajiuma!”

    Napa-tangina na lang ako! Tawa ng tawa ang mga kasama ko sa editing room while we were preparing the flash news for today. Alam kasi nila iyong Spanish ng “prostitute”! Sabi ko kasi, “Tangina mo Gloria!”

    Patalsikin na, NOW na!

    My loads and loads of prayers are for you and the BRAVE Group!
    May God be with you all especially at this time!
    I was met by our Director this afternoon with this question: “What’s happening to your country?”

    and my prayer : “Lord, guide our courageous GROUP. Keep them away from the Evils! Protect and keep them safe as they fight for TRUTH and JUSTICE! Awaken the hearts and remove fear from the Sambayanan. This GROUP need their Support!”
