Summary: "The AFP launched in 2000 a so-called ""all-out war"" to capture the MILF camps, including Camp Abubakar, the MILF's seat of power. Was it really ""all-out""? How was the AFP dealth with the Abu Sayaf Group, known for its links with the international terror networks, Al Qaeda and Jemaah Islamiya, and now with the violent extremist Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS)? Why sis the GPH-MILF Memorandum of Agreement on Ancestral Domain (MOA-AD) not push through and how did the AFP contain the violent backlash thereafter? Why did EDSA Dos, the unceremonious removal of Joseph Estrada from the Presidency, have to occur? Why were the AFP shift to support from Estrada to Arroyo as President and the Supreme Court affirmation of the constitutionality of Estrada's ouster not that popular? Why did the Oakwood incident, the uprising of ""Young Turks"" in the AFP, have to come about? How did the investigation of the incident turn out to be a Pandora's box? How well has the AFP been in taking on non-traditional roles, participating in international peacekeeping operations, and coping with the South China Sea dispute and the seemingly love-hate RP-US relations? Lest we forget Mamasapano. It had no fathers. It was an orphan. How did that happen? All these and more the author explains in this distinctively engaging narrative which attempts to reconstruct the recent past in a manner that is ""scientific in its determinations and artistic in its formulation."
