Patulan natin ang tanong ng @onenewsph. Pero hindi tayo babatay sa kwento ng matatanda. Babatay tayo sa tunay na ebidensya. May isang kwento mula sa pagkakakulong ni Ninoy Aquino na dapat niyong malaman:
Ang kwento ni Ninoy sa Laur, Nueva Ecija.

Sa rally na ito, pormal na idineklara ni Aquino ang isang pambansang kampanya upang iboykot ang lahat ng mga kumpanya, banko, at media outlet na pagaari ng mga crony ni Marcos. Kabilang dito ang mga produkto ng San Miguel, pagmamay-ari ni Danding Cojuangco.

Kaalinsabay rin nito ang isang general nationwide strike na magsisimula sa Pebrero 26, isang araw matapos manumpa ni Marcos, malawakang pagboykot sa mga trabaho at klase, at araw-araw na kilos-protesta at martsa upang yanigin ang diktadurang Marcos.

YOUNGER THAN ENRILE.
Ang daming gumagawa ng listahan ngayon - "these are younger than Enrile" daw.
So, okay - gawa din tayo ng listahan. Mas bata sila kay Enrile, pero pinapatay pa din sila ng militar sa ilalim ni Juan Ponce Enrile.
Let's begin.

FALSE INFORMATION. What archival materials say:
1. There are no credible sources at all that indicate that Cory Aquino was “playing mahjong” with Carmelite sisters in Cebu in 1986.
2. Cory’s exact quote: “Tell him it’s okay to go. My only condition is that he leave the country.”

WHAT REALLY HAPPENED ON FEBRUARY 22, 1986: Cory Aquino was in Cebu to pitch for the civil disobedience campaign that she started on Feb 16 in Manila. At 6:00 PM of that same day, Defense Minister Juan Ponce Enrile and Lt. Gen. Fidel V. Ramos defected from the Marcos dictatorship.
Even before Cory flew to Cebu, her aide, Lt. Jose Honrado, already informed her of rumors of a coup against the Marcos regime. But later that evening, through Belinda Olivarez-Cunanan (one of the journalists covering her since the snap polls), she knew of the Enrile-Ramos break.
Feb 22, 1986. Lt. Gen. Fidel V. Ramos roared: “I came here because of my sincere conviction that the time had come to reverse the situation […] it had been building up, in my perception, that General Ver and the President were bent on making themselves permanent in our society.”
Around 6:00 PM on February 22, 1986, a Sunday, a sudden press conference was called in Camp Aguinaldo. Defense Minister Juan Ponce Enrile and Lt. Gen. Fidel V. Ramos, the acting Armed Forces chief-of-staff, announced their defection from Ferdinand E. Marcos’ dictatorship.
Among a smorgasbord of his own reasons behind his defection, Ramos explained: “But on top of that, I came here to support the decision of the Minister of National Defense to seek a better armed forces, which I feel partly responsible for—and a better overall life for our people.”
