Over the last several years, the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) has become a threat to global security.

Most recently, ISIS managed to take control of Marawi, a city in the southern Philippines, and take its residents hostage. President Duterte declared martial law and deployed the military in response.

The Philippines is notoriously strict in law enforcement.Still fresh in our minds is when its police hunted down drug dealers and drug users indiscriminately. Thousands of people were shot dead by Filipino police. Even the daughter of a mafia figure, Maria Moynihan,who had dual British-Philippines citizenship, became a victim of the crackdown because of her alleged involvement in drug trafficking.
