Today in Labor History March 5, 1906: U.S. Army troops beat the native Moros in the First Battle of Bud Dajo, during Moro Rebellion, Philippines. However, it wasn’t even close to being a battle. The U.S. had overwhelming firepower, slaughtering nearly everyone they encountered, men, women and children, and then posed with the corpses. Only six people survived. Mark Twain said, “In what way was it a battle? We cleaned up our four days’ work and made it complete by butchering these helpless people.” The Moro Rebellion (1899-1913) was a liberation struggle against U.S. colonialism by Muslims in the Southern Philippines, (Mindanao, Jolo and the neighboring Sulu Archipelago). Overall, during the Philippine Revolution and the Philippine-American Warm up to 6,000 U.S. soldiers and 12,000-20,000 Filipinos died in battle. However, as many as 1 million Filipino civilians died from famine and disease during the genocidal U.S. occupation.
