This is extraordinary. It is time for an open and hard analysis of the UN now. Imagine if they had surrendered to Islamic State terrorists or other related groups.

Gen. Gregorio Pio Catapang said he advised the 40 Filipino peacekeepers not to lay down their arms, and they defied the UN peacekeeping commander’s order. Instead, they staged a daring escape from the Golan camp over the weekend, ending a tense, dayslong standoff.

Good for the Philippians, they have long been fighters and should never surrender.
Just finished a book about the Bataan Death March during WW2. Unspeakable for Americans; Filipinos were massacred outright in the tens of thousands. A very few escaped by playing dead so they were able to testify at the War Crimes Proceedings in Manila in 1946.
Here is part one of a good movie loosly based on a book by the American Officer who never surrendered. The the movie in one piece costs $2.99 to watch on youtube
The Philippines were the only place the Japanese conquered that they were afraid to go out at night, the locals would kill them and laugh about it.
