THE AFTERMATH of the Mamasapano Massacre that killed SAF44 and other civilians is continuing to be felt. Of course, people are mad at our president for bungling the whole thing, not only the covert operation that led to the massacre but how he handled what happened after that, like not showing up at the arrival of the victims at the airport and his being late at their eulogy.
Of course, it’s only to be expected that his sister Kris Aquino will support him but this got worse when Kris unfriended Judy Ann Santos and is said to have lashed out at Jomari Yllana who both bravely aired their sentiments against her inept brother. Both Juday and Jomari got congratulatory greetings for their courage in voicing their sentiments about what happened
But things seem to be getting out of hand as there’s now even a call for the public to boycott all the shows of Kris and all the products being endorsed by her. Kris is used to controversies and we have no reason to doubt this latest issue about her. But we doubt if her brother could survive the Mamasapano Massacre unscathed. No amount of washing of hands can erase from the mind of the public that he’s somehow guilty of what happened and the equally bigger fiasco that he didn’t handle well what a good head of state should have done after it happened, just like what happened in the Luneta hostage tragedy that took place at the start of his term, which turned out be already an indication of what kind of leader he really is.
