That was a nice clip spearhead! Video shows clearly that the AFP and police don't have the necessary gears to combat the rebels. Most combatants have no helmets, no body armor and are lightly armed. As in my previous replies to some threads, the corruption by top brass and government officials are taking its toll not on themselves but the lives of troops in the frontline. What an irony!

I agree. Seems like the corruption in AFP is still rampant, not too pleasant to hear.
If they can only use the AFP budget wisely, and use part of it for the supplies of military equipments, weapons, armors, and training, that operation may not have ended up like that. Indeed it was a failed military operation, even Bitag did not release the next video clips.

But if you also examine the video throughly, you can hear that even their commandant was wounded, and the rest, the soldiers and policemen seem to have been trained poorly. They were crawling wide open on the fields and you can see that they can only hide behind the trees, no wonder why theyve been shot! Looks like they've approached the area without even thinking about any possible enemy snipers, to think they already knew it was an NPA infested area in the first place. As their operation goes on, indeed they have underestimated their enemies, and it was a clear violation of Sun Tzu's War Tactic rules. PMA graduate officers there surprisingly never thought about it. Atleast it seems like it. :headbang:

Rest in peace to those fallen soldiers and policemen.
