[Summary] => We should be concerned about the planned US attack on Iraq because of the thousands of Filipino overseas workers who will be affected should it happen. There have been endless debate on what our government should do and should not do in this situation, and as in every debate, there are two sides as to how a war of this nature should be handled by the Filipino people.

Under the Heinous Crimes Law of 1994, only a presidential pardon can save a convict from death.

Carina Agarao, president of the Crusade Against Violence (CAV), told reporters it was so "un-Catholic" for the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) to coerce the Chief Executive into violating the law.

[Summary] => We turn to friends and relatives for advice when we’re in a bind, when facing crossroads, or before making a major decision.

Some advice may be good for us, some may put us in a worse situation. Most advisers mean well, others have a hidden agenda. The bottomline is that it is always best to pray hard for enlightenment, keep an open mind, listen to what our friends have to say and use their advice as a guide. And hope that our advisers know what they are saying!

Pimentel [Summary] => Pinayuhan kahapon ni Senate Minority Leader Aquilino Pimentel Jr., si Crusade Against Violence (CAV) president Carina Agarao at ilang ipokritong grupo na anya’y binuo para sa pansariling interes na tumahimik kung hindi rin lang makapagbibigay ng mahusay na paliwanag sa isyu ng Death Penalty Law.

Sinabi ni Sen. Pimentel na walang katotohanan ang paratang ni Agarao na kaya ipinababasura ang death penalty law ay dahil nag-lobby ang mga drug syndicates.

It seems the arm of the law is too short to put the remaining suspects behind bars.

"Considering the time that has passed, the police should have already caught and identified the suspects. The police are poor in investigating Claudine’s case," said Crusade Against Violence (CAV) president Carina Agarao.
