World: Filipino president Benigno Aquino wants bus hostage incident inquiry
- What the heck happened? That’s the big question Filipino president Benigno Aquino wants to know about today’s failed hostage rescue. Eight hostages died on the bus, which was taken over by a disgruntled former policeman. Many have criticized Manila police for being slow to deal with the situation. Aquino gives them a little more credit, but still isn’t pleased: “How can you be satisfied if there were some people who were killed?” Good question. source
