Trillanes, Lim at Makati: Another coup?

11.29.07 | 16 Comments


If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Something’s happening at Makati right now. It seems that Sen. Antonio Trillanes IV together with Gen. Danilo Lim have walked out of the coup hearing at Makati RTC. They are now walking along Ayala Avenue.

I dunno, but I think the soldiers guarding them have switched to Magdalo, too.

Will the people go there when called? It is up to you, I guess, but think of the risks first.

It seems that this is carefully planned: look here:

SENATOR ANTONIO TRILLANES, BRIG. GEN. DANILO LIM, MAGDALO SOLDIERS, THEIR GUARDS AND THE PEOPLE ARE NOW IN MANILA PENINSULA.

THE PEOPLE ARE CALLED UPON TO CONVERGE IN MAKATI TRIANGLE, AYALA AND MAKATI AVENUE NOW TO BRING FORTH A NEW GOVERNMENT!

For those who hate Trillanes et al so much, it is time to take that illogical rage into action. It is time to stop yakking and it is time to start walking the talk. Here’s my humble suggestion. Create placards that says “Trillanes shut up”, “Die, Trillanes!” or whatever, then go to Makati. Gloria Arroyo will be very delighted.

NEWS UPDATES:

ABS-CBN News: Trillanes, Lim call for Arroyo’s removal
GMA News: Trillanes, Lim walk out of court, call for ouster of Arroyo

If ever they want to change the government, who they want to manage it

Hopefully this is for real. May this coup succeed. Right now, we are trying to get hold of everybody in Tokyo to join us in a demonstration that we plan to conduct in case this coup materializes.

It is about time that the criminal be removed from the palace by the murky river. Time for Filipinos to demand something better than be saddled with a criminal lording it over them even when in fact she cannot run the government the way a really elected and enlightened leader should. Golly, she cannot even face the camera during crisis such as this! Why does she have to propel the idiots in her cabinet to be saying those outrageous statements like that Apostol and the newly operated on Gonzales. Ang haba ng buhay! Palibhasa demonyo, for as they say, “Only the good die young!”

I hope it’s not just a quixotic or symbolic gesture. Let’s support Trillanes and Lim.

Hi Arbet,

If you mean a coup d’état, am afraid this latest military adventure by 20 officers and men cannot be classified as a coup d’état because it seems it lacks the most important ingredient: PLANNING.

The sincerity is there no doubt but the move was a knee jerk reaction — bound to fail when fighting Gloria in that manner.

International press which is important too whether we like it or not are giving Gloria thumbs up for quashing the would be rebels; one point against the military and 2 points for Gloria.

That doesn’t augur well for those who want to move in the near future to topple her.

Hi Mam Anna, that’s why I put a question mark on the title. At the time I made this post, everything was not clear yet.

As one blogger had said, there must be something bigger that we can’t see yet. I know there is something but can’t put it in words.

What I do know is that despite Arroyo and Esperon’s bluffing, they do not have the loyalty, they do not have control of the 100% of the AFP.

mbw is right — there seemed to be absolutely no planning.

except that there seem to be a lot of loose strings — think you that just maybe this display was a smokescreen for something bigger?

Jester, look at the bigger picture. Is this a simple stupid act? Are Trillanes and Lim that stupid?

What this stunt had proven is that Gloria Arroyo can declare martial law anytime she wants and the people will not even sound a whimper.
