“But if there’s other evidence of a threat of invasion or rebellion, that’s a different situation. But [martial law is not needed] if the basic reason is terrorism, and it’s not clear if the bombings were in pursuit of rebellion or invasion — unlike the case in Marami where there were clear signs of rebellion,” he added.But the recent bombings in Jolo have yet to show signs that it would escalate into invasion or rebellion, according to Lacson.
“I asked them: What is the end state that you think would warrant the lifting or the non-extension of martial law? Their answer was clear: Once the anti-terror bill is approved, we will no longer recommend the extension or we will recommend to the President to lift martial law in Mindanao,” Lacson said.“They need to show Congress that there is invasion or rebellion before we allow the declaration of martial law,” Lacson said.
