"Napaparinig" na rin ang AFP sa US

Kung si Francis Ricciardone ay nagpaparinig sa Malacanang at AFP to get their act together in stamping out corruption, the corrupt AFP generals can play the same game too when they "uncovered" a plot to bomb the US embassy.

Senate minority leader Aquilino Pimentel Jr. yesterday said the Armed Forces, to prevent speculations that it is telling tall tale, must present solid evidence that the two men and a woman arrested last Oct. 6 were planning an attack on the US embassy.

"They (the military) should explain how they uncovered the alleged plot to bomb the US embassy in the face of public skepticism over their claim that the suspects allegedly confessed to the alleged bombing mission during interrogation," Pimentel said.

There were speculations that the arrests in a supposed bombing plot was to divert public attention from the congressional probe into corruption in the military.
It's like the military crooks are saying -- butt out, stop leaking to the press about our unexplained wealth in the US, or else bigla na lang may sasabog sa embassy nyo.
