US-Macapagal-Arroyo regime's all-out-war:
Defense Policy Board to be set up

Basahin ang artikulong ito sa Pilipino

Defense Secretary Angelo Reyes visited the US from August 10 to 20 to conduct talks with US Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld allegedly to "strengthen defense relations" between the two governments.

Reyes and Rumsfeld agreed to form the Defense Policy Board which is supposed to serve as an "open line for strategic talks". The Defense Policy Board will serve as clandestine adviser to the Defense Secretary and the AFP on war issues. Its structure and functions will be patterned after those of the US Policy Defense Board that currently serves as the Bush government's clandestine and conspiratorial "war council." Through this, the US will further tighten its grip on the country's key and tactical military affairs.

Although Reyes initially denied that the Mutual Logistics Support Agreement would form part of their agenda, he later announced on August 14 that he and Rumsfeld indeed discussed how the agreement could be approved without the necessity of a Senate ratification.
