Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte Vows He Will Eat ISIS Jihadists If They���re Captured by His Forces
Well, that���s one way to be sure your enemy is entirely eliminated.
As reported by The Sun, Filipino President Rodrigo Duterte, never one to shy away from a microphone, said during an appearance at a sports tournament in Laos this past Sunday that he will literally ���eat��� members of Abu Sayyaf (ASG), the Jihadist terror group based in the southwest Philippines, should any manage to be captured by government forces.
Abu Sayyaf has been engaged in a nearly-30-year campaign to establish an independent Islamic province in the country. Duterte���s recent comments come on the heels of an engagement Saturday in Bohol, a resort island, between the group and government troops, one that saw four members of ASG killed in the firefight.
���Just drive me to extreme anger, and I can eat a person. Give me salt and vinegar and I���ll eat his liver,��� Duterte told the assembled.
���You know, I am capable of eating a person. If you anger me, in truth, I will eat you alive. Raw,��� he added.
Duterte is well-known for his outlandish comments, frequently peppered with profanity. In 2016, prior to a scheduled meeting with Barack Obama, Duterte referred to the U.S. president as a ���son of a wh-re��� when he learned Obama planned to raise the issue of the brutal manner in which Duterte had been prosecuting the war on drugs in his country.
