On a single day on March 18 in Tacloban City, the tyrant Duterte once again exposed his mental derangement, self-contradictions and mendacious character before a fascist assembly of military and bureaucrat sycophants under the auspices of the National Task Force-ELCAC.

Duterte’s AFP military officers order LGU officials, especially at the barangay level, to list down relatives and friends of suspected CPP and NPA personnel under the guise of carrying out “localized peace negotiations.” Those listed are herded by the military and made to appear as surrenderers.
