It is honorable to defeat the anti-people president when she is fit
Militants wish Mrs. Arroyo to get well soon

Leftwing activists on Friday said they wished for President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo’s fast recovery from extreme stomach pain rather than see her crumbled in hospital bed, saying it is honorable for anti-Arroyo critics to politically defeat her in healthy or fit condition.

“ The Filipino had enough of President Arroyo’s puppetry, brutality and crimes of corruption. And they want to engage her in a national fight that would require her to be healthy and in fighting fit body,” the leftwing fisherfolk alliance Pambansang Lakas ng Kilusang Mamamalakaya ng Pilipinas (Pamalakaya) said in a press statement.

President Arroyo was rushed to St. Luke’s Medical Center last night after complaining abdominal pains while having dinner at an Italian Restaurant on Tomas Morato Avenue in Quezon City.

Her Presidential Management Staff (PMS) chief Michael Defensor said the doctors of President Arroyo told him that the President was safe and there was nothing to worry about because all she had was an upset stomach.

“ We wish her to get well soon, so that she could face the impeachment complaint to be filed against her next week, as well as the series of planned protests that would culminate in next month’s State of the Nation Address,” said Pamalakaya national chair Fernando Hicap said.

Hicap added: Our intention in wishing her well is as noble as our intention to bring her to the impeachment trial and to the court of public opinion for crimes against humanity, election fraud and big crimes of corruption.”

The impeachment complaint will be filed on June 26, but complainants and anti-Arroyo activists would hold a vigil at the gate of the House of Representatives on June 25 to guard their filing of new impeachment complaint against any political saboteur.

“ Her condition needs medical treatment and we hope the doctors attending her case would find the immediate solution to her stomach problem. We also aspire for her immediate recovery so she could face the Filipino people in the final political showdown that would end her bloody career and illegitimate regime,” Hicap said.

Hicap, one of the 300 complainants in the fresh impeachment bid against President Arroyo said his group and staunch allies Anakpawis party list, Kilusang Magbubukid ng Pilipinas (KMP), Kilusang Mayo Uno, the urban poor Kadamay and transport group Piston will embark on a six-month campaign involving a nationwide signature campaign and peace caravan in major regional centers nationwide against political repression and all-out military offensives of the government.

The groups will demand the scrapping of the P 1-billion anti-insurgency fund, the pullout of military troops in identified hotbeds of communist insurgency in Central Luzon, Southern Tagalog and Sorsogon province, the revival of peace talks, the stop in the killings of political activists by alleged agents of the state, the scrapping of Oplan Bantay Laya policy  and the release of Anakpawis party list Crispin Beltran. #
